Lost 50 lbs.† and 10% body fat

Before NeoLife I was on a downward spiral in my health. I would workout like crazy, but I was not achieving the results I wanted. I was over 200 lbs. when I started. I hardly had any endurance. I was in the later years of my 20s and I felt like I was much older than I was. I knew that if I wanted to live a long healthy life and eventually have children, I needed to be healthy for them. I knew it would be a long journey, but I was committed. I want to grow old with my wife and hopefully have many more children and see them grow up. I don’t want to miss a moment with my family.
My wife (girlfriend at the time) introduced me to NeoLife. I was actually on another protein shake at the time and I was a huge skeptic of NeoLife. I was so committed to my other shake that I didn’t even want to try it. As our relationship grew, and we eventually got engaged and I decided to give it a shot (to be honest, I did it because I was in love) and I knew that since I wanted to marry my wife Elizabeth, I would be marrying into NeoLife too. I’m so glad my wife and I found each other, and she cared enough about me to introduce me to NeoLife and literally saved my life. I started with the Weight Loss pack and within a month I had lost 10 lbs.† was really feeling the energy difference. I decided I would commit and go all in with NeoLife as soon as I started getting the results. Since my journey started, I have lost 50 lbs.† , lowered my cholesterol and have a better management of my diabetes. I’ve also lost over 10% body fat and I am pretty close to my high school weight from over 10 years ago and I definitely have more muscle!*

Before NeoLife, I was taking vitamins, but I questioned if they were making a difference. During my medical training, I started having migraine headaches. With many months of low sleep and high stress, I would get headaches frequently. I remember being in clinic asking the staff if it was okay to turn the lights down and close my eyes between patients to try to keep my migraine from affecting my vision or causing me to get sick. After medical school and residency, my husband and I were blessed with three children. During my pregnancies I would take the prenatal vitamin from the pharmacy.
My cousin Katie Booth introduced me to NeoLife and I was skeptical at first. Hearing about scientific studies, products developed from whole foods, piqued my interest. I started taking Pro Vitality, Salmon Oil Plus and Magnesium. I remember within a couple weeks of taking Pro-Vitality I was surprised by how much energy I felt during the day. Most notable has been the decrease in my migraine headaches. Previously I would get multiple headaches per week. Now I go multiple months without a headache.
I was inspired to join the Challenge by reading some of the stories of other NeoLife members share their successes. At the beginning of 2020 I made a promise to myself to set goals and be consistent with my vitamins (Pro-Vitality, Salmon Oil Plus, and Magnesium), my shakes, and my workouts. At the time I had know idea what 2020 would bring. As the pandemic began and I moved from my 30-day Challenge to my 90-day Challenge, I made it my goal to run my first marathon. The consistency in my day helped me stay focused and gave me time while I was running to think, to process, and to pray. Over 25 years ago, my father was the one who instilled in me the enjoyment that can come with running. One year before his unexpected sudden cardiac death, he ran his first marathon at age 60. I ran the first half of his race next to him the entire 13.1 miles and it is such a precious memory that I will always cherish. Running helps me feel connected to my dad and running a marathon in his honor seemed like an appropriate challenge I increased my speed and set my fastest time for a half marathon distance of just under 2 hours 9 minutes – 20 minutes less than my PR!*

Before NeoLife my life was a struggle both physically and emotionally. I didn’t have energy in the day for exercise and had achy knees. I also cooked and ate unhealthy meals and I did my best to stop gaining once I hit the 320 lbs. Once you hit that weight, that’s all you can do just maintain it. I had lost my father whom I looked up to a lot at the end of February 2020 and it was very hard on me. It finally hit me that I needed to take care of myself and do what my dad always told me to do. He had lost a lot of weight and walked diligently 6 miles a day and I said that’s what I’m going to do.
My cousin, Joseph Steininger introduced me to NeoLife and up until NeoLife I haven’t found any diets that would work for me and I have been overweight most of my life.
I started out with Pro Vitality and after a week I experienced more energy and didn’t feel like I needed to take naps in the afternoon. I added the Breakfast Pack to my routine and replaced my breakfast and lunch with NeoLifeshake. I started working out 3-4 times a week and eating healthier, adding more vegetables to my diet. I felt more energy, can walk further than I ever have without stopping in between and was even able to do my first 5K.* I’m able to shop for clothes almost anywhere I want. I’m happy and full of life again.

Lost 90 lbs.† 4 inches, with Weight Loss Pack
Occupation: School Bus Driver, Pastor
The last 6-7 years I have struggled with a lot of health issues including lack of energy leg and back pain, among other things. Dealing with all these symptoms and not knowing what or why was causing my deterioration was very emasculating! I had gone from a very active youth pastor to a very defeated and emasculated individual. I tried very hard to push through in daily tasks but would exert myself of energy very quickly. I would have good days and bad days. My body slowly started to get weaker, and I didn’t know why. It was not only frustrating for me but my wife and family too. I couldn’t do the simple things for my family.
I tried everything Western Medicine, Eastern Medicine, Homeopath, Natural Path. All of these avenues were to no avail.
About a year ago both my wife and I met with Joel and Gabriella Merritt. They shared story upon story of Nutrition helping people dealing with various health issue. We were both very skeptical concerning it, but the more we read and heard the history of this organization, we knew we had to give it a try. I started with the Weight Loss Pack and 3-Day Detox and felt and saw a difference within a month. I had more energy and started to exercise more by walking and riding a bike 3-5 times a week. I lost 90 lbs† . and I feel like I’m getting my life back after years of health issues.*
