3 Kyle Rosin Lost 40 lbs 1st Place Grand Prize Age: 33 Height: 5 6 Start weight: 249 lbs Final weight: 209 lbs One of the biggest and most important things that has changed for me by taking part in the Transform Challenge has been the dramatic improvement in my overall health. Not only have I lost over 40 pounds and increased my fitness level, I have had a huge reduction in migraine headaches and I have to think real hard to remember the one I had. It is also nice that my family and friends are noticing the changes I have made and they can t wait for the next challenge to start. Another thing that has changed for me as a result of the Challenge is that I am finding out that I am really enjoying tiny little things, like adding extra holes in my belt to take it in and having to trim off the excess length. I also have had more of a focus on getting enough exercise and making better choices about what I eat. But at the same time, I have found that by not denying myself fun food from time to time I no longer get down on myself when I do cheat and have my chocolate cake and I keep with my program rather than saying to heck with it and going back to my old eating habits. My Mom says that since I began the challenge our grocery bill has gone down quite a bit and that we now actually have leftovers for a change. I would not have started the journey to reach my weight loss and fitness goals if it was not for the incentives in the Transform Challenge. I have tried many other weight loss programs in the past and have had a bit of success but I usually gained everything back right away. I have been doing the program for almost 10 months and have not only lost a lot of weight but I have kept it off even with the stress of daily life and temptation that comes with going on vacation.

4 Beth Gabriel Lost 12 lbs 2nd Place Grand Prize Age: 34 Height: 5 3 Start weight: lbs Final weight: lbs IN.FORM and the Transform Challenge changed my health, my personal life, my professional life, and the lives and health of my family. The best part is that, unlike fad diets, these are changes that will last a lifetime. Before the program, my diet consisted of sugar, sugar, and more sugar. It was out of control and even though I looked thin enough, I was developing some symptoms of diabetes. In total, I lost 12 pounds and 10 inches, and gained self confidence and control of my sugar addiction. Not only did I learn how to eat, I changed my mind set when it comes to food. I no longer have to finish what s on my plate, or have seconds of dessert. I can go out for dinner and easily make choices from the menu that are satisfying, but not so unhealthy for me. I workout 6 days a week, teach a fitness class to seniors, and teach and train in Tae Kwon Do. I was surprised to find how much it was all affected by my changes. The extra confidence that I project seems to reflect in my students. They look at me and entrust me (in part) with their fitness. I love being an example for them, to show them what they too could achieve. I ve found that my personal workouts have improved as well. When I m fuelling my body effectively, I have noticed increased stamina, faster recovery, and it is easier to gain muscle mass. It is also having an impact on Tae Kwon Do competition. I ve dropped a weight class, and know that I can stay there. Interestingly, it creates a not so vicious circle; I feel confident which helps make others feel confident, which makes me feel even more confident. I feel very lucky because I know so many people who are unhappy with themselves, especially with their appearance, and I love how I look and feel. To top it all off, I made some great new friends. I loved being part of the group and having someone to talk to who knew exactly what I was going through. It was so nice to have my buddy to text when I really wanted to eat that whole bag of cookies. The support I got was what made the biggest impact on me. And soon, I will be taking part in another round of Inform as a helper. I can t wait! I hope that I can help to motivate the new participants and I can t wait to see what they will achieve. It is exciting for me to be able to share my passion of being healthy with others and see them making progress.

5 Kathy Deane Lost 15 lbs 3rd Place Grand Prize Age: 65 Height: 5 7 Start weight: 247 lbs Final weight: 232 lbs Transform has inspired and ignited me to want to maintain a Healthy Lifestyle and be an integral part of not only transforming my health but to assist and encourage others to transform theirs, not to mention the wonderful side effects of losing weight and inches. I did two transform programs. The first time I lost 11 pounds and the second time 4 pounds = a total loss of 15 pounds and 21.5 inches. I am continuing on taking each day One Transform Day at a Time. For me Transform is not about extreme weight loss but rather a gradual weight loss program that is healthy and maintainable. I feel great and am told that I look fantastic for my now 65 plus years. My clothes are what amaze me the most. I have gone from a size down to a depending on the make of the clothing. So with the Inform/Transform program you lose lots of inches, in areas that are not even measured, along with the weight loss. Prior to starting the Transform program my blood sugars were running between a low 4 up to a high 14, all indicative signs of diabetes. Obviously the inner terrain of my body was suffering. This was a smarten up warning for me as diabetes runs in our family history. For example, when I was a young child I was told I had an Aunt who had her legs amputated trying to survive diabetes. I do not want this to happen to me. We need programs that assist in changing the inner terrain of our body and Transform is such a program. Other improvements I have noticed include; more energy, better mental clarity, happier, calmer inside, sleep better, blood sugars balanced, no longer feel sluggish, more compassion, more positive outlook, higher self-esteem, balanced emotions, healthier eating habits, enthusiastic, more accepting of self and others, more energy to exercise, working longer hours with my NSP Business and after a long day I still feel great. I LOVE the Transform program because I am like an athlete training to win the Olympics. Just as they started with small steps at the beginning so have I. As I continue on with following my Transform program every day I know that I am getting healthier. I am excited for the health journey I am on and proud to also be a IN.FORM Coach and lead others who want to join in this journey with me, and, together we can pass the torch on to others.
