You and your staff are the "Real Deal" for effective and sustainable weight loss. All of my expectations were exceeded in your twelve week program. My 42 pound weight loss is terrfiic, but the 30% loss in body fat was an unexpected bonus.

Approximately five years ago my physician diagnosed a numbness in my feet as nerve damage known as neuropathy. The condition has no cure or treatment and was thought to be irreversible. Over the years my condition became more pronounced and progressed to my hands. Since begining the Vital Solutions MD program 99% of my feeling has been restored. I say, "Wow"!

I have participated in numerous other weight loss programs., but none can compare to my extraordinary experience with your company and staff. I enthusiastically recommend Vital Solutions MD for those individuals seeking a healthy way to lose weight.

I started this program out with a “whatever” attitude. I had tried so many programs & lost weight but not “fat”& it always came back. There is a difference between losing weight & losing fat. It wasn’t until the 8th wk into this program that I got excited. I had made a dress & was trying it on when I realized what I had done. I stood there with tears in my eyes. I looked like I did in the late 70’s to early 80’s. This program has been a life changing transformation for me. I have been given the knowledge to keep this going for the rest of my life. This time I will not let the weight come back on because I now know what to do. I lost 44” & 19 lbs. in the 1st 6 weeks. I was upset because I hadn’t lost as much weight as I had wanted to. But I’ve just keep loosing about 2 lbs. a wk right now. I lost 8” in my upper stomach & 8” in my waist in the 1st 6 wks. I had a 37” waist. I now have a 28” waist. This has been the best thing that has ever happened to me. The people at Vital Solutions have been so supportive & always ready to answer questions & help when needed.. I now know the right way to exercise to burn fat. I’m grateful for this blessing in my life at this time. I turned 65 on Nov. 2. 2010.

Thank you Vital Solutions you have changed my life into better health. Not only did I lose the weight but I've learned about what food does to ours bodies. The bad foods verses the good foods. You cover not only the weight loss but how to live a healthy life style to keep the weight off. Thank you April who multitasks and still takes the time to answer or find out the answers to all my questions. Thank you Candy for your very knowledgeable information in explaining the HCG program and how it works. You have a smile that no one forgets. Thank you Brenda for all your patience with my 100's of questions about food. Your words of encouragement are from your heart. You really do enjoy helping people and it shows. Thank you Doctor Cameron for all your patience and help with my individual health needs. You were always available for the stop in the hallway questions. Thank you John for creating a program that completes all the needs of people to truly change their lives into better health & happiness.

It's funny that the picture in the email shows a sign that says Inspiration Point…the people at Vital Solutions were/are so inspiring!  My story begins in April when I weighed in at 192 lbs! Not necessarily an all time high for me.  I had recently lost 25 lbs but gained 7 back~ I hit a wall and was having the hardest time losing! Definitely becomes more difficult to lose weight as I've gotten older and well @ 47 I'm no spring chicken!  That's when I saw an interview of Jeff and a Vital Solution's client on Your Life A to Z. I started to research HCG diets and found Vital Solutions program to be very thorough and effective. Not to mention the owner, Jeff had lost over 100 lbs!  I wanted to do the 12 week program because I really liked all the benefits that came with it!

At first I was a little taken back by the cost but they worked with me financially. I put down 1/2 and then made payments for the other 1/2.  Really made it easy on me financially!  WORTH EVERY PENNY!!! I feel fantastic!  The first week or so was tough but once my body got used to eating the specific amount of calories along with the HCG injections it got easier! The weekly B12 injections really helped with energy as well!  I was losing at least 5-6 lbs per week! This was really motivating me to stick with the diet! Everyone at Vital Solutions especially Jeff, Denise and Allie were so helpful and inspiring! Before I knew it I had lost 30 lbs in only 6 weeks! It's almost unbelievable how fast the weight came off! I now weigh 160 lbs and feel so much better and have a ton of energy!   I have to say one of my favorite benefits about the HCG 12 week program was the IDEXA Scan.  The body scan gave me a picture of areas on my body that I needed to work on.  At the end of the 12 weeks I had another IDEXA Scan showing all my losses/improvements! Amazing results!  I'm asked about what I did to lose the weight all the time and I love talking to people about the Vital Solutions program!  I hope to see a few of my friends start the program soon.  Thanks so much for the support I couldn't have done it without Vital Solutions as well as my family.

Best, Gretchen Chalmers

My success story:
I am a new mom (my son Sasha was born in July 2004) who has gotten back my pre-baby body and better - body fat % ~ 19% (pre-baby was 21%). I did achieve my goal of 33 pounds loss (actually I over-achieved it and dropped 35 pounds in Feb 2010), but after lengthy trip to India in May-June this year I put on a couple of pounds and right now at 30 pounds loss - since Sept 2009 - and able to sustain it. I'd say I have achieved my weight loss goal, even though I am working daily to get to my 33 :). And of course, there is "no silver bullet" - I am using exercise to tone and lean my body! 

My turning point was:
I struggled for awhile - after the birth of my son - that I couldn't get into my pre-pregnancy clothes ... But no diet or exercise would "move the needle" enough to show any weight loss. It was getting so frustrating and at the same time - demotivating. Then we went on beach-vacation last summer (2009) and I saw my pictures on the camera on the 1st day there ... Oh, Goodness - I was not showing any of my bathing suit body after that day at all .. I got really upset and told my husband that it is becoming a subject of my depression. Shortly after he mentioned to me that someone in his office visually lost weight and he said it was with HCG. So, being a "Finance person", I set at the computer and did my "homework": reseached all I could fing about HCG, read up about several providers, talked to most of them on the phone and visited couple in person. Then I made my choice of one of them - Vital Solutions MD - and joined the program in Sept 2009. Don't be fooled - it is a lot of work but it SO WORTH IT! By Nov 2009 I was 23 pounds lighter!!! Watching my food intake and light-to-moderately exercising! Yes, I finally got enough energy, and now motivation, to exercise for fun!!! I was off the program by mid-Dec 2009, but made change in my diet permanently and exercising - part of my normal routine. By Feb 2010 I was 116 pounds (from 149 pounds in Sept) - 33 pounds in 6 months!!! I got 6-pack :) and when I exercise at the gym I see sometimes that even men are jealous :)

My support system was/is:
Vital Solutions MD hand-held me through and after my program. I did several DXA scans throughout and after the program to see my fat (not muscle) loss - going from 36% body fat to 20% ... what could be more motivational! I didn't know about LIVESTRONG.com at that time (I wish I would - it definitely would add to my success) and was using caloreking.com to check on my food intake (not very user-friendly tool though). Then in May, right before my trip to India, I asked my HCG dietician if there is any tool which would help me when I am away from home - to be able still watching what I eat and so on ... and she said "try MyPlate" .. That is how I fould LIVESTRONG.com and I swear - I do not miss a day to record my food / exercises and read up on new things to do.

My biggest challenge on the road to success was/is:
Time!! Time commitment is everything: find time for exerising!, time for cooking meals from scratch (to minimize Sodium and Fat intake) for the family, and with all that - time to SLEEP enough - to keep stress level low to allow for weight loss!! So, I'd say - you have to become very good at time management! :)

My secret to success that I hope to share with others is:
Do it for yourself (!!!), not someone else (goals "for wedding day", "for graduation", for "dating" are not sustainable and you will regret it after all). And find something in the process to be able to enjoy it! When I feel that I am too tired to exercise, I tell myself "OK, I'll just walk for 10min ...". So, I put my MP3 player music into my ears to step outside - make sure you have your favorite songs on: which make you smile, energetic, makes you to "smell the roses on the path of life" ... And you'll see, the plan of "just walking for 10min" turns into full 40-60min of fast walk (or like for me today - run of 4.3 miles). You come home happier, re-energized and .. with new motivation in mind.

My additional notes and/or words of wisdom are:
LOVE YOURSELF for YOURSELF!! No matter what others say - be your own critic. Make your goals achievable and sustainable: if there is no way you can sustain exercising 6 times a week - do not make it part of your weight loss period: you will get disappointed after you finish that "period" watching weight coming back. So start with small goals and those you know can become part of your new life!! It will make a big difference!

I'm happy to share my story!
I am a 48 year old female. I have Syndrome X, Insulin Resistance and PCOS. Three strikes against my efforts in trying to reach and maintain a healthy weight. On top of that, I am restricted in my mobility due to a 60% loss of my quadricep muscle as a result of an accident, so exercise is restricted.

I have been "thin" my whole life but found myself gaining weight since my mid thirties. I tried several different common diet programs which either left me gaining more weight or simply just maintaining, with no weight loss.  I am not a "big" eater, I am not a snacker, I do not have any food addictions...other than unsweetened iced tea.  I was diagnosed with the three conditions about nine years ago, was given different drugs to help, was taken off the drugs because they were not helping or because the doctors didn't think I needed them any longer. I even followed a "healthy" diet of the "food pyramid", snacking on veggies. And the whole time, I have continued to gain weight (over 80lbs in 9 years).

After discussing several of the HcG diets that are available with several friends who have participated in different programs, I knew that the very restricted diets with very low calories was probably not for me. I know this had to be something I could continue to do for the rest of my life. It wasn't just about loosing weight, it was about loosing it and maintaining a healthy weight. I needed a program that didn't fit 99.9% of the population, but was "customized" to what my body was doing and how it was responding to food.

The week of my 48th birthday, I was home getting ready to go to a birthday lunch with a friend when I heard about Vital Solutions on channel 3 (Your Life A to Z). The segment caught my attention when they said that the programs are tailored to the individual. I had already scheduled a few consultations with other HcG providers and found that I was either annoyed at their persistence in selling their products and supplements or seemed more focused on getting the weight off and "worrying about maintaining it later". I made an appointment with Vital Solutions and met with Jeff. He presented the "facts" to me. I did not feel as though anything was being "hidden". There were no high pressure sales pitches which portrayed a great trust and belief in the Vital Solutions program. The program itself seemed very comprehensive and even provided a nutritionist as well as a maintenance portion to the program. I joined!

I started the program on Wednesday June 16th. I write to you today on Wednesday July 14th, 24lbs lighter! I am amazed at the results to date and have a positive outlook about the remaining 8 weeks of the program. I am a little anxious about the maintenance program but will take it day-by-day and I know Dr. Burns and her staff will be there to support me as I face any challenges.

Sincerely, Cathy Sargent

IF IT DID NOT HAPPEN TO ME I WOULD NOT HAVE BELIEVED IT!  With each of my pregnancies I like most ladies  retained about 10 lbs, 2 children = 20 lbs.  Later in life I was diagnosed with hypoglycemia, my directions were to eat plenty of protein and eat every two hours, netted me another 10lbs.  How did this happen to me, my usual weight was 115 and I'm 5'9".  Then as I was viewing AZ TV 3, Its Your Life segment I was introduced to the HCG program.  One week later, 95 miles from home, I visited Vital Solutions MD and enrolled immediately, WHY, because finally there was a program that made sense!  I began the program with a 700 calorie diet.  I saw results in the 1st week and remarkable differences not only in my weight but in my overall health as I completed the 1 st phase, six weeks, with a 17lb loss, a size smaller and a flat stomach.  WOW!  The next two phases were a breeze, did not miss a thing, loved being able to exercise and see the results multiply.  My goal was to lose 20 lbs I have now lost and retained a loss of 30 lbs.  The program changed my lifestyle and my weight forever.  I highly recommend Vital Solutions Program and commend their staff and professionals who supported me through this process.

To all of you who may be skeptical or think that you have tried every diet imaginable, and believe me I have, this is your Vital Solution!!  I had dieted my way to over 200 lbs.  Each attempt was initially successful but in the end I would gain back the weight plus some.  I know that I am not alone and that many of you have had the same results.  

I had given up and just decided to "live" with it until a co-worker told me about Vital Solutions. She joined about 3 weeks before me and was losing weight daily.  Her attempts at Jenny Craig had netted no positive results.  Most plans where you purchase the food cost between $80.00 -- $120.00 per week and you  have to buy your own vegetables, fruit, and dairy.  There is no food to purchase with Vital Solutions, you learn what foods to eat in the correct amount so that you lose fat NOT MUSCLE.  This is important since muscle burns fat!  Vital Solutions provides you with a program to meet your specific needs to obtain optimalresults.  

After my consultation I went to Senora Quest Laboratory for my scheduled blood work-up and met with Dr. Burns to discuss the results. She made recommendations for supplements, having a Physician on-staff is very important.  For years I thought that there must be a problem with my thyroid levels but the standard work-up that most physician's schedule show the results for the T1 and T2 thyroid levels and mine were normal.  My scheduled blood workup was also for the T3 thyroid results, and mine were below normal.  Dr. Burns recommended adding a daily Iodine supplement.  All recommended supplements are specific to YOUR needs.   

I know that many people are skeptical about giving themselves daily injections, but really you don't feel them, there is no bleeding etc., the needle is tiny.  I never thought I could do it, but it was easy and made me feel like I was doing something for ME.  That I was worth it!  I lost an average of 1 lb a day and continued to lose after the initial 12 weeks.  I lost a total of 35 lbs and have only gained 5 back.  I started my program on April 2nd 2009 and today's date is July 18th 2010.  I have more energy and feel good about the way I look.  I no longer avoid people that I haven't seen in a while.  I used to do that because I was self-conscious about the weight that I had gained.  

Once you learn the foods to eat in the correct portions you can continue with this diet, AKA Lifetime Eating Plan, for the rest of your life.  No more paying for diet pills, eating plans, and expensive pre-packaged food!!!!!  

I would do the program again in a New York minute, and plan on going through for another 6 weeks in the near future.   

The staff at Vital Solutions is knowledgeable, friendly, and  genuinely care about you and your success.  Thanks again to all of them for their amazing program!!!  

Sincerely, JoAnn Chettinger
