Coming to Ideal Protein as a weight loss experience has helped transform my life. On arrival here, I weighed 201 pounds. I’m a 5’7”, 57 year old retired RN and Navy veteran. Had been trying to lose weight for years. Tried counting calories, counting fat grams, exercise. Always fell short. One thing or another would distract. Results were so minimal that I would grow discouraged, and once again return to old eating habits. There were some missing ingredients to success. Along this journey I discovered the holistic view of weight loss. Education, support, accountability and structure. And I found these tools with Tracee and Ideal Protein. In practicing discipline of the plan, I realized how much food had always been my ‘go to’ comforter. Denial of these impulses gave me opportunity to develop healthier coping skills. I became dependent on the structure of this plan and have embraced the tools of journaling, applying knowledge gained from daily videos, choosing healthy alternatives to ‘bad’ foods and accountability. Weekly meetings with my weight counselor were perhaps the best of these. I’m now at my goal weight. Today I weighed 147 pounds. This weight loss was achieved over a 6 and half month period. Have been on the journey of maintenance for couple of weeks. Getting off of the structured plan, transitioning into ‘real life’ eating is a new chapter. I’m practicing and applying what I’ve learned on a daily basis. The support through my coach Tracee continues to be pivotal as I continue to implement new habits. The day I went into Maintenance phase, Tracee said to me, “This journey didn’t make you into a different person Michele. This journey has helped you return to the person you always were.” What a joy. Her words couldn’t be more true. For me, weight loss through the Ideal Protein plan means gaining or re-taking control of how I eat. This means I’ve looked inside myself and discovered how the simple act of planning healthy meals leads to self-value. It is a transformational journey. I am a full-time caregiver to a loved one at home. It is vital for both myself and my family that I maintain health. When I arrived at the doors of DeLand Chiropractic, my blood pressure was 165/110, heart rate low 100’s. I was on medications and experienced occasional angina. Had lots of hip pain and was advised to never jog again. Today my blood pressure is 100/65, heart rate in 60’s, off medications, and I walk/jog 2 miles every day. I am a success story. Thank you all so much for all you have done to help me. Could not have done it without you.

I would like to tell you about my recent weight loss success with IDEAL PROTEIN through Deland Chiropractic and Spinal Decompression. Dr. Jeremy Gordon is the coordinator of this program along with Mrs. Tracee Gmitro, coach. After a 2 1/2 year time of illness and death of my mother I realized that while helping her I had neglected my own health and weight. I visited Deland Chiropractic and met with Tracee and Dr. Gordon. Last October I began my commitment of losing weight. I lost 50 pounds! I cant tell you how much better I feel. Not only am I lighter in weight and wear smaller size clothes, I am healthier. I am taking less medication for asthma and high blood pressure. AND, I have more energy. My Mayo doctor is thrilled with my blood tests and progress and has released me until May, 2016. The program is very easy but you must be committed. The Ideal Protein food is tasty and readily available at Deland Chiropractic. There are weekly weigh-ins to help monitor your progress. I invite you to meet with Tracee and sign up today and be on your way for happy health. You will feel better soon. Happy weight loss!

Ill confess that Id never been to a chiropractor in the past and that in my family we had a negative association with chiropractic care. Well, Dr. Gordon changed that. A few years ago I hurt my back in the gym, and it bothered me for six months before I decided to do something about it. The gym owner recommended Dr. Gordon, saying he personally saw the doctor, "He always knows how to help." So, I gave it a try. I made an appointment and Dr. Gordon and his office staff surpassed their reputation. On my first visit (and every subsequent visit as well) they were professional and efficient, evaluating me and treating my pain. My spine looked awful in the initial x-ray and Im certain other doctors would have recommended invasive and expensive treatments, but Dr. Gordon removed my pain in just a couple weeks of treatments. Now I stand tall and walk pain free. Insurance even covered my visits! I could not be more happy with the experience. Im counting chiropractic care as essential as eating right and exercising - thanks to Dr. Gordon!

Before signing up I was looking into Weight loss surgery. I thought at this point I wasnt going to loss the weight I needed to. Thanks to Tracees support and knowledge to educate me, I have reached my goal in 3 1/2 short months. The diet is easy to follow. I dont feel deprived from Snacks or sweets when I want them because IP has all different types of food that satisfies you. No exercise involved. The best part of this is it is a lifestyle change not a temporary fix. The team is with you the whole way and even after you reached your goals. They always have new recipes to share and even cooking classes to show you have you can still eat good but in a healthier way and the convenience of it all. Tracee and the office team are so friendly and supportive. I always look forward to my weekly visits at this office. Professional and very well managed. I recommend all my family and friends to The Ideal Protein diet.

Im following the IP Program with this clinic and I live in Guatemala City (Central America). This program has changed my life, after trying diet after diet this is what I needed. I never feel like im being left aside because im not there, is the other way around. I have their attention all the time, from my coach and the doctors if I need them. I have my weekly appointment like everyone else, follow the program and order my food. No problems at all and Ive lost 15lbs already. I think my unusual case (being long distance and all) can inspire people letting them know theres no obstacles in the road of good health :)

I currently meet about an participate in the wellness & weight loss program. Im here to get my life back and the staff from Dr. Gordon to the ladies at the front desk are awesome. Everyone is your cheerleader. Tracee is amazing and very supportive. She answers all your questions and is genuinely on your side. You can "feel" that she is invested in your wellness. Im relatively new to the program but, I know it was the best decision Ive ever made regarding my weight and health. Are you wanting to loss weight and tasker back control? This is where you need to be!

As I have aged, I find that loosing weight is more difficult until my wife found Idea Protein. We both started the program and in 30 days I lost 27 pounds and my wife 17 pounds. They have an excellent support team and are really interested you your weight loss success. If you follow the program you will be able to loose the weight you need and to keep it off. That is the important part to me. Learning to keep it off, and not be on a YOYO diet. Try you have nothing to loose except pounds and inches.
