-It's been over a year since I joined Greenlight and in that time I have lost 65lbs and dropped 10BMI points. I am going outside my comfort zone more and more, whether by volunteering to be an assistant coach or wearing sleeveless shirts. It hasn't been easy, but it has been manageable. Kim H- Lost 65lbs so far.

-I came to Greenlight because I was tired. One of the things in my life I absolutely knew was exhausting was my life-long war with my weight, food, and diets. Greenlight has forced me to be very present in my life, while re-examining the past. Since the beginning of the program, I have learned a lot about food, reorganized my home and social life, and made sure that my food choices are conscious choices. Now I feel more in command. -Sondra S- Lost 19 lbs so far.

-I feel like I was eating to live not eating to live… I feel like the group really showed me that I was not alone and other people have struggled with weight for many years like me… I know I have come a long way.  I know I will always be an LTWC (long term weight controller).  There is no other choice period. -Waddy P., lost 94 pounds so far

-Greenlight has shown me the way to a healthy lifestyle that has taken weight off my body and, just as important, my mind.  As a result of this way of living I am better prepared to face the challenges and opportunities life has in store for me.  It’s not always going to be easy or convenient but it’s worth it. - Valerie G., lost 20 pounds so far.

-Since beginning with Greenlight about a year and a half ago, I have made tremendous progress towards becoming a long term weight controller. I have stopped making those daily stops at McDonalds or the Chinese takeout, stopped hiding the foods I was buying at the grocery store, stopped eating in private. I have also introduced a number of low fat options to my diet and have started exercising. I’m no longer self conscious in social situations, nor do I dread going shopping for both food and clothing. Today I enjoy going out with friends and I actually look forward to shopping- not only in stores but in my own closest where I am finally fitting into those skinny clothes I bought "just in case", and getting dressed in the morning has become almost enjoyable as I have so many new options. -Beth H- Lost 60lbs so far

-It is with hope and excitement that I will continue this.  I really want this to be the new way of life forever.  You are 50 now and I know you want to be around for a very long time.  There will be weddings, grandchildren and closets full of awesome clothes in your future and you have found a way to hang around for it all.  Yes, you have tried thousand times and have yo-yo’d more times than you can count, but this is the first time you have tried with a program that allows you to live a normal, snack eating, bread basket loving, ice cream enjoying life as well as having a great support system.  The support is going to get you through the tough times; you are not doing this alone anymore. – Pam W., lost 110 pounds so far.

-It's been 18 months since I came to Greenlight and I have grown and changed in more ways than I expected. I have tried other programs and attempted to superimpose their rules onto my program only to learn that the true beauty of the Greenlight program lies in the simplicity of its structure. Robin V-  Lost 40lbs so far.

-Greenlight has given me the tools to change my life.  I have not only lost weight, but I have done it in a way I believe will be for life. - Dave T., lost 27 pounds so far.

-Red lights make you stop.  Yellow means slow and green lights mean go.  It’s all about action making the changes that this program offers.  Greenlight go to the place in your heart where desire lives.  – Dana V., lost 22 pounds so far.
