"I met with Martha for the first time about 4 years ago and she has changed my life. I do not say that loosely, she really has. Like many young women I have struggled with my weight my entire life, and during my four years at College I gained even more. When I started to see Martha on a weekly basis she did not teach me how to diet, but how to change my lifestyle. She gave me a practical menu and motivated me to become active at the gym.
I have a lot of friends, a big social life and a job that keeps me busy a lot of nights. So one of my biggest challenges are the temptations of drinking and eating because I am out so much. To make sure I have a good plan Martha and I go over my week and figure out the nights and make sure I have enough nights where I am really good and what I need to do the night I do have a glass of wine.
Since I have worked with Martha I have lost approximately 30 pounds. She has been the most amazing motivator and counselor. "

"I was under the impression that because I went to the gym I could eat whatever I wanted. I have PCOS and attributed that to being overweight. I began working with Martha and I lost 40 lbs in 8 months. I went from a size 12 to a size 4. I learned how to lose weight as well as how to maintain it. Before working with Martha I was running 2 miles 3 times a week. I now run 6-8 miles 4 times a week. In addition to the running, my eating habits have changed.
Prior to working with her, I had no knowledge of how many calories I should be consuming a day and what I needed to do to lose weight. She helped me with portion control and healthier diet substitutes to save on calories. This enabled me to increase my potential in the gym. I have maintained my weight for the past 6 months and will continue to do so! "

"I came to you for help with lowering my triglycerides and you gave me a ton of helpful information. That was three months ago and I just had my blood drawn and tested again today, and my triglycerides dropped 50 points! My doctor says that I am no longer in a risky zone, and won't have to take medication. This is directly a result of your help, and I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate it.
Thank you so much,"

"I have been faithfully following the diet that you had planned for me. My
starting weight was 140 lbs. I am now down to approximately 118 lbs which is
well below my target. Actually, I did not think I would be able to lose weight
at all so I just picked a number. I am really pleased that my blood sugar and
cholesterol numbers and well within the normal range. I think I can stop
loosing weight now and want to know what I can increase without putting my blood
sugar numbers in jeopardy. So, my question is what can I increase so that I don't loose any moreweight????? I can't afford more clothes!!!!!!!
P.P.S. - I can't thank you enough. I have been begging and searching for just
the right kind of diet or proper food since my first diagnosis with high
cholesterol back in the late 1980's and I was finally put in touch with you. I
can't tell you how many people have asked me how I have lost the weight - they
want to know my secret!!!!!!! Again, thanks so much"
