“Imagine a life filled with shame and embarrassment, too ashamed to walk in front of strangers.

Imagine a life where your brother won’t walk through the mall with you or dance with you as he once did; abandonment from your family.

Imagine a life where you’re in a fitting room and all of the clothes you like don’t fit you. It is a sinking feeling to know that your body is unhealthy and unattractive.

That was my life before I joined U Weight Loss.

I casually filled out an entry form at a local business for a Free Detox and Cleanse, and I received a call to come in for a Free Health Weight Analysis. I lost 7 lbs in the first week and I was excited to get started with my new lifestyle.

I have tried many other weight loss programs, but none have helped me succeed like U Weight Loss. The structure of the program – from meal planning, taking supplements, to exercise planning – has been tremendously helpful for me. Not to mention the support of the U Weight Loss team in Calgary. Without them I could not have achieved my weight loss goal. They are amazing, encouraging and always positive. I feel at home at the clinic – the U Calgary team is like a family to me.

I was three months into my U Weight Loss program and I hadn’t seen my family. They were shocked and surprised by my weight loss. Then five months later when I lost even more weight they were shocked again. The transformation has been fantastic. I’m in all kinds of family pictures now, and not walking or dancing alone.

I am so happy I went to U Weight Loss. Not only did the program save my life, but I feel so confident now that I can walk in front of strangers – naked, if I could. Even my seventeen year-old son says I look great now.

If I can do it, so can U!”

Anita, Bradford, ON | Weight Loss: 85 LBS
Before U: 213 LBS | After U: 128 LBS

“I don’t even know when I started ‘putting on the pounds’ as they say. I suffered a great loss of my best friend when my mom passed away from cancer. My solution was to eat. Before I knew it I was 213 pounds! I ate out at restaurants, I loved buffets, I always ate 2 and 3 helpings, I ate numerous snacks; I had card parties and I offered every kind of carbohydrates you could imagine – chips and dip, chocolate covered almonds, French onion dip, and crackers and cheese. I think I had the crackers and cheese so that I could pretend I was eating healthy. I didn’t exercise; I was too tired to exercise.

The cycle continued until I saw a picture of myself. I was shocked. I looked like a totally different person. I couldn’t believe it. My stomach and waist were enormous, my arms and my legs were huge and I looked like I had aged tremendously. I attributed it to the sweatshirts that I was wearing. The clothes that I had bought myself were just not flattering. I kept telling myself, it wasn’t really my fault, and because of my age and my metabolism, I just couldn’t lose weight.

By June 2011, I knew I had to find some solution to my constant weight gain. I was into a size 2X sometimes 3X. Pants were horrible to try on. My feet were so painfully sore. I had to see a podiatrist and be fitted for orthotics. I was taking high blood pressure pills and when I climbed the stairs in my 2 storey home, I noticed I was always short of breath.

So one day I walked into U Weight Loss Clinic of Bradford. There I met a woman who weighed me and told me a little about the program at U Weight Loss. I was a skeptic. I didn’t think I needed a program. After all, this was not my true size and I was sure that I could lose the weight. Sure I was overweight, but I really didn’t need any help – or so I thought. I tried other programs in the past, like counting points, exercising at the gym and fad diets, and they all failed me. I kept putting the weight back on and I kept kidding myself. I was still grieving about the loss of my mom, I was missing my kids, I was stressed at work; you name it, and I had an excuse to eat! Well, I went home that day and Donna from U Bradford called me at home. My family encouraged me to give U Weight Loss a try.

That was almost 1 year ago and I am proud to say U Weight Loss changed my life! I have lost 84 pounds, and 7 ½ feet of fat! I am now a size 5 and I look and feel like a new woman. I have regained my confidence and am so much healthier. I no longer wear my orthotics, my feet are no longer sore, and I am no longer on a full dose of high blood pressure pills. The doctor has lessened the dosage. The health benefits for me are remarkable. The challenge for me was to change my lifestyle.

I get a compliment from someone every day, even from people who see me every day at work. At first I didn’t know how to respond, and now I rejoice in my efforts and my transformation. The team at U Weight Loss Clinic of Bradford – along with the support of my family – helped me change my life and in all honesty, they helped me get my life back!”

Carol, Surrey, BC | Weight Loss: 44 LBS

“Where to begin? Before my pregnancy, I had always been skinny and happy with my body. But since my son was born, I had been overweight. My body just never returned to normal after having my baby. I tried eating less, eating better, working out here and there, but slowly I was growing larger…and I couldn’t stop it. Gradually, a feeling of futility took over my life. Why keep trying when you see no results? I eventually just accepted that I would be overweight for the rest of my life.

It had been so frustrating. I often thought back to when I was size 5 and able to wear the cute clothes that skinny girls wear. I could shop at any store and take advantage of all the great sales. But over time, there were fewer and fewer stores carrying the sizes I could wear. Finally, I was limited to “those” stores (you know the ones). I remember looking at a cocktail dress to wear to my staff Christmas party. It was cute, small and was never going to work with my body! It was depressing seeing other, smaller women walk into that store and buy the clothes I could no longer fit into. I had always loved going for walks with my family but now I was stopping to catch my breath, wheezing and finding physical activities I once enjoyed increasingly difficult. Sports anyone?! Are you kidding me?

One of the girls I work with had recently lost a lot of weight and looked good, but the climb for me just seemed too steep. The thought had been entertained and dismissed so many times, but after years of not watching what I ate, nor having an exercise plan, all my discipline was gone.

I really don’t know what snapped me out of it, but it’s like I woke up one morning to a gross dissatisfaction with my weight and overall well-being. I then decided that if all I had ever done had not worked, it was time to try something different. I mean radically different. I got on the internet and started searching for a solution. I was investigating surgical procedures and so forth and started talking to my husband about what different medical procedures would cost. That’s when he realized I was serious. But he didn’t like the surgery option. He reasoned that if we were going to spend money, we should spend it on a permanent solution, not on surgery.

My husband had talked to a U Weight Loss Clinic a few months prior to this, but the sense of urgency wasn’t there before like it was now. This time, I went to the clinic myself and what I found there made me realize this was the very thing I needed. I found wonderful, real people who were full of faith that their program worked and it would work for me. Where I had given up hope, it’s like I received an injection of hope and I began to do something I hadn’t done in a long time: I believed I could lose my excess weight and look and feel really good again. The team at the clinic was not pie-in-the-sky or unreal. Their belief was not wishful thinking. No, they drew up a game plan for me, totally customized to my goals and my busy schedule. This was something I could really do and keep on doing. It was realistic, designed for my life.

The team at the clinic was behind me all the way. I could really feel their strength and support. When I felt like my strength was all spent, I just borrowed theirs! They invited me to lean on them for support and motivation. They promised to hold me accountable to the promises I was making to myself, and they made good on that promise over and over. I loved going to the clinic every few days to get weighed and measured and encouraged. I still love going there!
One benefit I did not anticipate was the improvement in my overall health and energy level. I just wanted to shed the excess pounds. Well, I did lose weight (a lot of weight), but the herbal supplements and vitamins I was taking, combined with all those healthy (and scrumptious) meals, were helping every cell in my body. When many people lose weight, their skin looks haggard and they have a gaunt, hollow appearance, especially in their face. They often look worse than when they were obese! But when those who knew me before see me now, they are even more excited about the radiant, healthy glow of my skin and eyes than they are about all the weight I have lost. Now I not only can go for walks without wheezing, but I also get up and run every morning just for the pure enjoyment of it. That is something I could never even imagine doing before! I not only got my body back, I got my health back. While I have lost inches off my waist, I have probably added years to my life.

I really do have so many people to thank. I could never have done it alone. That is precisely that point thought; I learned that success is the result of a team effort. The staff at U Weight Loss Clinic were (and are) so knowledgeable, encouraging, firm when needed and just wonderful to deal with. My husband and son love the new me but they also loved the old me and supported me when success was just a dream and all the work was still in front of us. I often times relied on God’s strength to get me through. Looking back now, it seems He was leading me to my new friends at the clinic as well as giving me faith and vision for a happier, healthier future.

Today, I am confident, excited and feel like I can do (and wear) anything!”

Fatima, Kitchener, ON | Weight Loss: 52 LBS
Before U: 188 LBS | After U: 136 LBS

“A woman cannot be a woman until she is able to enjoy the small pleasures in life that make it worth living. My name is Fatima and I am a mother of two adolescents. About nine months ago I would use that as an excuse for being overweight, telling myself and those around me that is was normal for me to not have time for myself, and for my family to come first. But I was wrong.

Weighing in at 188 pounds, I was far from healthy; I wasn’t proud of my body and the woman I had once been was hidden behind fake smiles and oversized clothing. I could rarely enjoy many of the things in life without feeling inferior to others around me or eating away my emotions. I had tried countless other weight loss programs with vitamins or alternatives to foods, but nothing had worked for me long enough to see results. I had basically given up on any hope of losing weight until I heard a testimonial.

This testimonial came from the mother of my daughter’s best friend; she had lost weight despite her busy schedule and had been able to keep it off for at least a year. She had joined U Weight Loss. The difference between this testimonial and all the others I had heard on the television and radio was that this one was real. I could hear the emotion in her voice and see the gratefulness in her eyes. I had no choice but to try it for myself. After all, what did I have to lose?

It might have been the accepting atmosphere at the clinic, the delicious and satisfying meals provided, the knowledgeable and friendly staff that taught me so much, or a combination of all these elements that lead to my success. But the power lied in all of these things, I was given the materials and knowledge needed to put my life back on track and live healthier. I have lost 52 pounds to date, not to mention adding numerous years to my life. I could not be happier.

U Weight Loss has changed my life. Today I am a new woman. A woman who can tell people I have two children, but not use it as an excuse anymore because I have nothing to feel bad about. I feel like a true woman; I can now enjoy the small pleasures in life because this program has allowed me to find that healthy balance between my life and myself. With this personal success have come many other successes in different aspects of my life, especially professionally. I can tell you that it’s not normal to not take care of yourself, just as it’s not normal to be overweight. It has taken me 20 years to find myself, and I finally have with U Weight Loss! Do yourself a favor and join U Weight Loss – it may just be the best decision U have ever made!”
