“I’m approaching one year of maintaining 100-pound weight loss!" I’ve had that in the back of mind, and I struggle with that fear every day,” Cathrine said.
“When I think of my life, every single moment and how much my life has changed, I think of Diet-to-Go. It really has changed my life,” Cathrine said. That kind of success is exactly why we asked Cathrine to share with us her best tips for maintaining weight loss.
Food is just food. But if you’re going to stick with a weight loss plan, it’s got to be healthy, sustainable and, most importantly, taste good. That’s what Cathie David believes, and why she found Diet-to-Go to be just the thing to fit into her busy lifestyle.
This month I had the opportunity to attend a fundraising event for Autism Speaks. Cocktail attire was required and I had nothing to wear. I asked a friend to come with me for support. I had the most amazing experience.
One of my biggest joys of having lost over 100 pounds are the doors opened to me. I have wanted to paddle board and jet ski for years, but was afraid to inquire about weight restrictions. I can now say I have successfully done both!
I recently watched a documentary about weight loss and why it is so difficult to maintain. It was suggested that people fail with maintaining weight loss when it is not a sustainable life change. Personally, I have always had success losing weight using different diet systems or fads, but within a few months, my weight loss stopped, and I slowly begin gaining the weight lost.
Back to a pound a week! My greatest learnings this month are the mental and physical challenges of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and how small changes can make a difference.
I did not meet my goal for March, and that was discouraging. I have made significant changes to my lifestyle over the last 15 months, and I know what it takes to lose 1-2 pounds a week. While I wanted to blame my slow progress on travel and socializing, I realized an old habit started to creep into my thinking.
My biggest triumph this month was the notification I received through my fitness app that I’d exercised at least 3 times a week for 26 weeks. I have actually exercised at least 30 minutes a day, a minimum of FIVE days a week for a total of 28 weeks!
Sometimes the first step to losing weight and getting healthy starts with removing all temptation. That’s how it started for Alexis Gardner, a software engineer who lives in New York and in 1.5 years lost 100 pounds* with the help of Diet-to-Go and fitness.
In 2017, Cathrine Shinn lost 100 pounds using Diet-to-Go*. We’re following her story through 2018 as she continues to lose weight and get healthy. If Cathrine can do it, so can you!
It is one thing to lose weight as an individual — it’s quite another when you get the entire family to do it. But that is exactly what 47-year-old Sandra Hardeman did with her three sons and husband one year ago, and, since then, the family has collectively lost more than 330 pounds.
Cathrine S. used to be too embarrassed to go outside for a walk. She used to refuse to look at herself in the mirror. She used to be prediabetic. She used to weigh 331 pounds. But today, shes down 100 pounds and no longer any of those things.
Health issues, lack of motivation and energy, fad diets and a general misery in life — these were all the things Sinora Glenn felt in December of 2016. But now, just over a year later, those are distant memories for Sinora. Sinora has lost a total of 60 pounds, more weight than she ever lost at once and weight that will never come back. And it all started with a phone call, one that would change Sinora’s life.
Selena's social media accounts are filled with healthy meals and recipes, so much so that she’s become a go-to source among her friends who want to eat right and lose weight. But it wasn’t always that way. Rewind 4 years ago. Selena had struggled with weight before, during her elementary school years, but it had never been quite so bad. At 5 feet, 2 inches tall, she weighed 175 pounds and felt unhealthy and unhappy. She decided it was time for a change.
Selena asked her parents if she could try Diet-to-Go. They agreed and, at 16, she started on the plan. Two months later, Selena shed 25 pounds.*

When you spend most of your time comparing yourself to others, it only drops you deeper into a pattern of negativity that gets you nowhere. Just ask Jen Carroll whose constant comparing herself to others led her to a very dark place. “I used that as an excuse and food as a comfort so the past couple years my weight got out of control,” she said. But after years of yo-yo dieting, one Labor Day she realized she was ready to finally lose weight; and when she found Diet-to-Go, that's exactly what happened.
