Transitions Lifestyle System

Kristen

I lost 20 pounds in 3 months on Transition diet. I quit using supplements. Because the lady "teaching" it, was upset that I would not buy supplements from her, it hurt me emotionally and I gained all my weight back plus more. Now that 5 years have past, I plan on using the diet again with my old Transition diet journal that contains the diet in a simple way, with lists in a much shorter journal than the new TD journal. There were no side effects like in other diets I've tried. I was not hungry, moody or constipated like on other diets I tried after transitions.

TLS is the biggest waste of money and a huge scam! They put you on an automatic payment from your credit card and dont tell you until you complain and read the very small tiny pint at the bottom of the page that barely mentions automatic payment. The website is a waste too, they say you are suppose to do this cleanes but they dont provide you with any information on it. BIGGEST WASTE OF MONEY AND SCAM!

I think more than anything - it has equipped me to maintain weight loss. I know how to balance my blood sugar one meal at a time.

I'm getting older,going to be 54, and of course I'm putting on weight that just won't come off, I need to lose about 10-15 lbs, and a friend of mine sells TLS and suggested this diet, those who used the program seemed to like it and it worked for them, do I need to do the entire program, suppliments, meals, exercise, etc or do you suggest an area to focus one? thanks.

Obesity causes hypertension, diabetes,heart disease, sleep apnea, excessive pressure on the knees, back pain, social unacceptance, depression, poor self image and numberous other problems. Stick to this program and you will become healthy without a doubt. No suppliments needed. Just stick to the plan and you will live longer.

I started this program 2years ago and have maintain my goal weight. This Program should create a magazine that contains Low Glycemic Index recipies. Outstanding, healthy and sucessful plan.I am a health care professional and I believe that this way of eating is a must for all americans. We would no longer be known as the OBESE nation of the world. Also, healthcare costs would take a nosedive.

1st 7 months and had 69 pounds off. Dr. wanted me to test and see if I could keep the weight off for 1 year....I DID! Now I'm back to losing - so far my total is 85 - hoping to hit 100 lbs off by Jan 1, 2012 wish me luck! Love the program, never took supplements, exercise 3-4 days a week and do yard work, eat "real" food and plenty of it. I am never hungry between meals.

I am currently on this program, starting week 2. My main concerns are many discrepencies in the literature.
During my detox phase of the diet I was told I could eat carrots, then almost four days into it, I read that carrots are a higher gi and should not be eaten during the detox week. That is just one example of many.
I also find it difficult to remember to take the supplements before each meal and end up taking them half way through my meal. I don't know how much of an impact that makes on the effectiveness of the supplement.

If you do decide to start this program, be sure you love vegetables, because you are encouraged to eat at least 4 cups of raw or lightly steamed veggies a day.

In summary, this is a solid plan, just be sure to review the materials thoroughly and ask your consultant for clarification when you come across discrepencies.

Beginning week 2 and I'm already down 3 pounds without feeling deprived. On a side not, My husband has noticed the change and can't keep his hands off me. Best of luck!

I an personally teaching the TLS class to my patients and have many success stories. Great way to help patients take care of chronic in many cases life style related diseases like type 2 diabetes. Patients are able to get off their diabetic medications with weight loss.

I can't say enough about this program. Reading the posts to date I have a few things to add. It can be costly if you take all of the supplements, but to that I would say what is your health worth to you? I also have had one person that went on the program wanting to do it without supplementation but wholly on her own and she was successful as well as the others that were on the supplement. The difference, was she did not loose as much or as quickly, so the program is customizable. I ran a group in my home with mixed results, the success came from those that followed the program including the detox week and also for the next 5 weeks we eliminated gluten. This all kicks your metabolism into gear to work as it should; most have been abusing our bodies for years and our metabolism just is not working right.
My family has a history of diabetes, I am in my late 50's with a son in college and knew I had to make lifestyle changes. Diets do not work, this is not a diet, it is a lifestyle change. After all, I learned a poor lifestyle over a number of years and it was going to take effort to make this change. It is worth it, it will get your body working effectively. Working to change the obesity epidemic one life at a time.

Great lifestyle to live by. I am 47 years old and in relatively good health. I did need to lose some wieght as the pounds were creeping up on me. My goal was about 30 pounds. I am at 45 pounds in 7 months. I only used the supplements for 30 days. I work out daily, and have built muscle. The inner strenght and overall wellness that I feel is incredible. There is nothing fancy or hard about this lifestyle. You just have to plan and have healthy food on hand. Low glycemic food makes all the difference. Worth living life to its fullest.

First 12 weeks, lost 36 pounds....3 months later, weight loss totaled 72 pounds.

The concept is great. I did not follow their menu/recipes online because it did not support their videos and included pasta and other types of unnecessary carbs that the program recommends weeding out , though it was included in moderation. I probably would have lost this weight anyway. I will say that people at our gym followed the lifestyle and lost the weight without th supplements, but they exercise avidly. I failed miserably with the exercise, and so do not look as good as I might have.

I found this program to be great I lost 40+lbs in 12 weeks WITHOUT TAKING THE SUPPLEMENTS the coach and learning how to eat and the whys are key to this system you just learn how to eat which may surprise you is or may not be what you were taught. If you really want to be healthy and keep the weight off this plan is tor you This ts not a diet or a fad and does not provide shortcuts so you can look good next weekend. it's a lifestyle and once you lose it this way you never want to go back

I did the Transitions program and between May 12 and July 15 I lost 20 lbs and 17 inches. My results are not typical, most of the class actually lost more weight. One young woman who was not overweight but had crummy eating habits actually gained 2 lbs., but her body composition changed drastically and she went down two sizes and was carrying 20 more pounds of muscle than before the program. Remember ... she only gained 2 lbs. Transitions is different in that it's not about weight loss, but it's about fat loss. If I had been more compliant with the suggested exercise (which really wasn't that hard) I would have done better, but even so I was thrilled with the results. Just changing to a low glycemic way of eating alone got me results I despaired of ever having, since I had tried every diet imaginable.

This is a wonderful way to live, if you are "too busy" to take care of your meals and supplements, you may want to loosen up your schedule for whats important. A little thought and planning ahead is really not so difficult considering the high stakes. In comparison to Dr visits, drugs & their side effects, and feeling run down, this lifestyle is cheap...I dont know about you, but I place a very high value on my health!

Actually, the diet is completely customizable, with supplements adjusted to each individual's specific weight challeneges and tailored to accelerate success. It has a highly systemized plan, and the MOST important component, a trained, certified weight management coach to provide on-going support and education on healthful eating and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. It fits well into my hectic schedule because I have made the decision to change the habits that got me where I am now like being to busy to plan my meals, make good food choices, living stressed out, etc. Transitions works, when you decide to work it! Immediate and lasting results don't lie!!!
