Questions about Andi Holyfield and her Eat To Lose health plans.
What are the goals of the Eat To Lose program?
Because 90% of weight loss results from dietary changes, this program is very effective. Busy schedules and a healthy relationship with food are the primary goals. Being prepared with approved snacks during the day and the ability to make healthier food choices, along with portion control, will keep you on track as you watch the pounds melt off.
Food cravings and emotional eating issues are welcomed topics of discussion. Andi has personally developed (and tasted) recipes to meet any food craving. All foods suggested in this plan are available at your local grocery store. You will not be required to purchase any foods or supplements from Eat To Lose, Inc.
How was the Eat To Lose program developed?
All recommendations on the program are based on the most advanced medical information, weight management, and wellness research available. Clients are required to list their favorite food prior to their initial consultation. Andi can customize a diet plan that addresses your authentic food cravings.
What should I expect during the 6-week program?
The initial session will last approximately one hour. Andi will complete a full assessment of your dietary needs, tastes, and medical history. Long-term goals are based on your body fat percentage and will be determined during this meeting. Upon completion of the initial session, clients will receive a personalized guide with a suggested grocery list, sample menus, and a customized diet plan. By the end of the third week, the program will be modified further due to increased metabolism. Andi will monitor your Body Fat and adjust your program so you do not overeat. In addition to losing one size by the end of the third week and 2-3 sizes by the end of the six-week program, most clients also decrease body fat by 4-6%.
