Becky's Story

For two years I crossed paths with Metabolic Research Center’s newspaper ad. I kept wondering if it really worked. Since I’d had cancer, my knees were killing me, and I didn’t like how I was feeling or looking. I figured, "why not try it?"

Prior to starting my journey with MRC, I’d never given much thought to the difference of feeling "stuffed" vs. feeling "full", what little I knew about nutrition and diet, or how misguided I’d been; but what amazing benefits these all turned out to be! Realizing that my healthy food choices were actually becoming a preference and a habit was incredible! Sure, I could have had “treats” if I wanted, it’s just that eating so healthily and feeling so great made me not want them very much any more.

It’s all quite remarkable actually! I’ve lost 57.5 pounds and 50 inches in only 26 weeks! I can hardly believe it's true, but it is! This program works! I used to view food as my enemy, but that’s only because I believed it controlled me. Now food is my friend. I need it, and I’m perfectly comfortable calling the shots now.

Every time you go into your center, you'll be encouraged. You’ll feel like you're among friends that truly care about and invest in you! My tip to you would be to stay serious about your weight loss and heed all the helpful advice they give you! Don’t rob yourself of the help you’ll get in your weekly weigh ins. Make them a priority! You’ll learn to enjoy what you’re eating, and you’ll definitely enjoy what you see in the mirror!
