By: Pat A., her mother
Going shopping with my 15 year old daughter was becoming a very unpleasant experience. I had always anticipated that shopping together was to be one of the joys of motherhood. Rachel would become grumpy and difficult and finally, I realized the real problem. Over the past year the pounds had been adding up, and shopping only accentuated her increasing dislike of the size she was needing.
Rachel was becoming serious about finding the “right” weight loss program for her. I wanted her to do the Weight Management Program but being the independent young woman that she is, she wanted to do it “her own way.” She started avidly studying different weight loss programs, and even went to “Diet Center” to find out about their program. For some reason, the program that really got her motivated was the Richard Simmons diet and video tapes (for exercise) and audio tapes for motivation. She said that was because it was such a complete program and simple to follow.
Converting my older children to Organic Chinese Herbal Foods hasn’t always been easy. It’s more their style to make fun of their mother for the “strange brew’s” she is always trying to hand them. Amazingly though, Rachel would usually drink them but wouldn’t take the time to fix them. She never really ate enough to recognize it as her answer.
Eight loooooong weeks later, it finally arrived! She could hardly wait to get started! Because she was so ready, she followed the program to the t! After about three weeks of meticulously following the Richard Simmons program, she had only lost 3 lbs. But, she insisted that Richard said, “If you lose it fast, it comes back on fast.” However, I could see her excitement and resolve slipping, just a little.
I had not been able to get her to eat the Health Regeneration along with “her program”. ” She felt that she needed to follow the Richard Simmons diet exactly as outlined. One day, I just handed her some Energy Caps and Cleansing Tea, and said – “drink”! She did and took it twice more that day. The following day when she weighed herself, she had lost five lbs. She couldn’t believe it! Could her mother actually be right?
Rachel now takes her own product, and even takes double Energy Caps in the morning. I realized just how convinced Rachel was when overhearing her tell her friend about the best way to get the body you want is Health Regeneration! Her friend wants to eat Health Regeneration as well, now.
After six weeks eating the Health Regeneration, Rachel had lost 25 Ibs and was looking great. She is now a believer! She now believes that you can not only lose it fast, but you can maintain what you have lost and the most exciting part is what happened when she went to girls camp. She was there a whole week eating the normal hamburgers and hot-dog type food, along with a variety of sweets. We really anticipated the worst, that when she got home she would have put 10 lbs. back on, but instead…..Rachel lost another 5 lbs., it was then that we realized more than ever the value of Health Regeneration. We could see that it literally changed her metabolism, and she kept on losing, even after going off her diet and the Health Regeneration.
Rachel has gained an enthusiasm for Organic Chinese Herbal Foods and the Health Regeneration program and is continuing to watch what she eats and never misses her Health Regeneration! She is really looking good in her clothes and I am looking forward to going school shopping with her in August for her new school wardrobe. She just told me excitedly that she has lost another 5 lbs. even though she has “messed up” a few times as she has gone out with her teenage friends.
She says, “I don’t have to be perfect, to keep going toward my goal, “I just have to do the best I can, and the Health Regeneration will make up the difference!” My favorite part of this story, as her mother, is that Health Regeneration makes such a difference in Rachel’s attitude toward life. She is much happier and more helpful around the house, as well as, is kinder to her little sisters. Because her body is nourished she is much easier to live with! Rachel, I’m proud of you, and Organic Chinese Herbal Foods, I’m grateful to you!!
