Anne
My name is Anne Rapp and I am 64 years old. When I turned 60 I noticed that I had gained so much weight and over the past four years I had not been able to lose it! I began my weight loss journey with Mendy on May 1st at 135.3 pounds. Thanks to our weekly coaching, food, diet, and daily weigh-ins I was able to meet my goal of 125.0 pounds by August 16th!
I also was able to reduce my cholesterol and A1-C from: 5/3 cholesterol 211 A1-C 6.2 to 8/16 cholesterol 150 A1-C 5.6 — along with continuing my medication — A win, win for me!

Rachel
Rachael works three different shifts as a doctor. Ten pounds can seem like fifty when you are stuck. I gave her a plan for each shift and her wish came true! Rachael hit her 10 pound weight loss goal! #Instagram

Kim
The picture says it all. Kim is doing it!! Her New Me is shining! She lost 30 pounds on her own then called me for a little extra push. Since then she has lost another 20 and still losing, I think she’s going to have to put rocks in those boots so the Kansas wind doesn’t blow her off her Harley. #Instagram

No Name Please
This gal has lost 23.2 pounds. With her personalized program, she will be able to keep her New Me for as long as she wants. No fear, just more confidence, and smaller jeans. #Instagram
Yes, I wanted to look good as I walked down the aisle as “Mother of the Groom” but more importantly I wanted to feel good about myself.
I found that I was satisfied and seldom hungry using the plan Mendy designed for me. And when I started seeing results in the way my clothes fit it got that much easier to stay motivated!
Being consistent with Mendy's nutrition and workout plan, 30 pounds melted off us by the time the wedding rolled around. Our bodies weren't broken, we just needed help to learn how to eat a well-balanced diet by eliminating the ingredients that were harmful while also adding a workout routine to improve our lifestyle. Even our cardiologist was impressed with our results.
Not only was I able to lose the weight, but the overall "Carlye" was better. I have become less angry, less anxious, happier, I have more energy, I am more productive, and I get excited to meal plan and tell others about my success. I also get excited to HELP others.
So here I am today - 35 pounds lighter and a whole lot happier. I can’t even express to you how my mental health has changed for the better. My blood pressure is lower than most! I am getting married in June and already have my wedding dress.

Anne
Anne has definitely found her New Me! Since beginning her personal journey she has lost 57.5 pounds and proves it's never too late to accomplish your weight loss goal. She isn't the same Anne I met just over a year ago. She different now. She has renewed her mind and body living and loving her New Me. #Instagram
Thankfully, I gave Mendy a call, and asked if she would help. I have known Mendy for years, but this was the first time I had called her to be my health coach. I was struck, by how confident she was, that her process, would work for me. It only took, a little over a year, for her to help me lose over 70 pounds.
I have battled my weight my entire life (60 now) and knew I would not succeed on my own. I had a lofty goal to be 240 pounds for my son’s wedding in early May of that year.

Becky never had a weight problem growing up. She says, “I used to be as skinny as a stick!” As the years passed and convenient eating became part of her busy schedule, she slowly put on weight. The possibility of being called to work in the middle of the night often meant eating any hour of the day or night.

Tom was already in great shape! His friends were complimenting him and vacation just three weeks away, but Tom wanted a little more definition. With three weeks left he reached out to me. The far left picture was the first week, second picture the second week, and third picture was his vacation finale. The fine tune is remarkable. With an extra push he got the extra definition he was looking for. Great work Tom! You are beach ready! #Instagram

Christian
He sends me updates by phone and these are this weeks pics. He’s fought in Iraq, fought a brain injury, fights challenges daily, and he’s fighting for his goal again. He’s sacrificing and making it happen the way champions do. I’m so proud of Christian. Only a few weeks left till competition and whatever that brings he’s a winner no matter what. I think he could walk down the street right here and be just fine but don’t tell him I said that- we still have 5 weeks to go! #Instagram
