In 2006 I retired from a management position and proceeded to pack on the pounds. A year later I was driving down 8th street and decided I should stop in at Gail's. Little did I know what a life changing experience that would be 1st a goal of 40 pounds - I lost 10 pounds a month easily. I liked the program so much and the atmosphere was so inviting that I talked to Tony about joining the team. I began work at Gail's in September, 2007 and continued to lose weight to a total of 55 pounds. I was thrilled! Well, like so many other people- life got in the way of this success. I was stricken (once again) with a blood disorder which required aggressive steroid therapy over several months. One of the side effects of this steroid is weight gain. All my hard work (and pride) went out the window as I watched my weight climb back up a total of 27 pounds. Finally, I am off the steroids and on my way back down. I can't say this hasn't been a frustrating and sometimes depressing experience, but with the help and support of Tony and my colleagues at Gail's, I have survived and know I will lose the weight again. Perhaps this has even benefited me in my work here at Gail's as I certainly have some insight into how life sometimes gets in the way of our journey of weight loss and maintenance.

Based on my personal experience, I encourage anyone who is challenged by weight issues, to stop in for a free consultation at Gail's.
