Mark Your Calendar's
On Thursday April 16 I will be hosting two Take Shape For Life and Medifast Weighloss orientation's and food tasting's. I have had so many people talk to me over the past few days about friends and family who might be interested in starting an effective simple weight loss program, that I have decided to have 2 orientations in my office next Thursday. Anyone is invited to attend. This event is absolutely FREE. They will last about 45 min.
The first one will be at 12:30pm (for the lunch crowd) and the other will be at 6pm for the after work group. You must RSVP to come to this event. I can only fit about 10-12 people in my office at each time. So call early as I know that there are many people that have already asked me about this program.
Everyone that I have worked with on this program is losing weight. Most are losing 12-20+ pounds a month. All while eating every 2-3 hours and not having to count points, calories, or even exercise.
Studies show that the average weight loss for men on this program is 67 POUNDS and women is 47 POUNDS.
Everyone that comes to this event and makes an order will get there choice of $25 gifts. But you must be there to recieve it. Plus those who are on the program and refer someone who makes an order can also have one of these $25 gifts. Call 801-878-3304 today to RSVP>
See you Thursday. Dr. T
Daddy Daughter Date!
Friday night I took my 2 cute little girls, LibbyAnne 4 and Makenzie 6, on a Daddy daughter date.
Well before I started Medifast my wife bought me a new pair of pants. I tried them on and laughed because I thought there was nooo way I would ever wear them, even when I lost the weight I needed to lose.
Well they are nice pants so I decided that it had been 4 weeks since I tried them on and 3 1/2 weeks since being on the program so i tried them on. To my utter disbelief, THEY FIT!!
I couldn't believe it. I knew I could get into them sooner or later in the waist but I thought they were too small in the legs to ever fit. Well in only 3 1/2 weeks they fit. It was a great day and fun to see. Then I had a great night with my little girls.
I have now registered to run the St. George marathon in October. I said Iwould never run again but I am feeling better than I have in years and when I get to my goal weight I will be 30 pounds less then when I ran it the first time. I think it will be so much easier to run 26.2 miles carrying 30 less pounds. So I am going at it again. I am really excited.
If I can do this anyone can. The best part is I am working with about 20 personal clients and all of them are losing weight. They are loving this. There is no guess work with this system. You can't fail. Call for more info. 801-878-3304

WEEK 3 COMES TO AN END!
Total Weight Loss 26lb's
Body Fat: 18.8%
BMI: 30
Overall this past week my weight loss slowed down. But no one can keep up 10 POUNDS a week and so this was expected. I also went to Boise, ID as my previous post said. I spent time with family and had 2 meals that were off the program. However I enjoyed them, didn't OVEREAT and then got right back on track the very next meal. That is the key to anyone. Esspecially with Easter coming up.
Enjoy Easter dinner. Have fun and enjoy the food with your family. Then get right back on the program immediatly. You won't have any adverse affects from one meal. Just don't over eat. Have small portions and fill up on the veggies and not the carbs and fats.
I am very excited with where everyone I am working with is at with their weight loss. They are doing great. I really find this program quite fulfilling, helping people get to an ideal weight and getting their lives back. For a free consult on this amazing program and how you can lose 2-5 POUNDS a week call 801-878-3304.

Our Current Health Care System! Or should I say "Sick" Care!
I got to listen to co-founder and Medical Director of Medifast, Dr. Wayne Scott Andersen. He graduated first in his class in med school, was the 10th physician licsened in critical care, and was a pioneer in critical care and intensive care. For years he treated people who were at the end of their journey, many of which were there prematurely. He saw a glaring weakness in our current medical system and how it treats patients. That is why he started Take Shape For Life. He realized that giving people medications didn't fix the problem. It just suppressed symptoms for a time and then caused greater problems in the future.
Most of us start out at 5-10 pounds over weight. If we eat only 500 calories more than we burn each week we will gain 7.5 pounds a year. That doesn't sound like much but in 10 years it is 75 pounds. 20 years it is 150 pounds. 500 calories isn't very much. It ends up being 2 oreo cookies everyday. That's it.
Then as we age and are overweight problems start to occur. First we buy over the counter meds. Things for indegestion or joint pain. Then it gets worse and we get prescription meds for the indegestion. Then it leads to cholesterol meds, high blood pressure, Type II diabetes and so on. All of this can be prevented. The best part is that if you are overweight or already on meds you can get off them. You can get off them and get your health back. Just losing 50 pounds can get you 10 years back on your life.
Call me to help you. I am on this journey with you. I am doing the program, I have currently lost 20+ pounds. For the next 5 people that come in have a consulstation with me about this program and get started I will give them a copy of Dr. Andersen's new book, a $35 value. Call 878-3304 now and get started.

QUICK UPDATE
Couple things from the first few days. It was harder than I thought. I must have really been carb addicted. I had a low grade headache and fatigue for about 2 1/2 days. Now I feel great. No problems and only get hungry when it is time to eat. I have found that all the food is good. The oatmeal needs a little help to be palatable but is decent. Otherwise I am really getting good momentum and can't wait to keep you all updated.
Also I am holding a Free Medifast Orientation on Thursday March 26 and Tuesday March 31 starting at 6pm. It will be about 40 minutes and I will have food to taste and explain the program. Call if you would like to come. 801-7-878-3304

The "Scary" Reality
- Height 6' 2"
- Weight 268 lb's (Most I have weighed since playing college football)
- Body Fat 22% (My best has been 10%)
- BMI 34.4 (10 points higher than it should be)
- Waist 40"
Here is what my goals are in the next 8 weeks.
- Weightloss 45 lb's
- Body fat at 12% or less
- Waist 36"
- Training for a triathalon.
Just so everyone knows this is the worst I have ever looked and felt. About 2 years ago I tore my achilles tendon. It took me over 1 year to get back to exercising like I could before. The problem was though I had gained quite a bit of weight and had some very bad habbits. So even after I started exercising again i stilled gained weight. I know that my story is similar to many. Whether it is an injury that starts it or pregnancy or something else. The important thing though is what are we doing to change it. Are we just "hoping" that it will "magically" improve without doing anything different. Suprisingly I lived like that for a period of time. I now realize there isn't a magic pill. However Medifast makes it simple and fool proof. It works for anybody. So get started with me. Change your life. Call to get started 801-878-3304.
