Editor's Notes

- #5 Review SlideNote to presenter: Familiarize yourself with the stories below for your presentation. You do not need to read this verbatim. Blaine: Blaine struggled with her weight her whole life, and motivation to lose the weight for good and become healthier came to her when her son turned one. She needed to be able to keep up with him! She and her husband, Eric, lost their weight with TSFL. They discovered it through his parents, who also have had success with the program and even became Health Coaches. “I am able to walk around at the pool or at the river in a bathing suit and not be hiding or feel really uncomfortable. I am able to move around much more freely and not feel tired all the time! I just feel great in general! Thank you, TSFL!” David: At 420 lbs, David was simply weary of watching his life pass before his eyes. So with a magic marker, he wrote his goal on the wall by the scale; when he reached it, he would go sky diving! And guess what? He did just that! The wall is now his trophy wall.His friend introduced him to the program, and, as his supportive Health Coach, she was there to walk beside him on his journey to Optimal Health. He is no longer a bystander in his own life. He is living it! “Everyone in my life is on the program with me and getting off their medications and into their high school jeans! The joy that this program has brought into my life expands to everyone I touch. It is a complete blessing.” Linda Sue: Being morbidly obese seriously affected Linda Sue’s personal life. She would teach all day—sitting down—then when she got home, she never had the energy to do little more than go to bed or sit on the couch. She couldn’t even shop for food or clothes. She found our program and decided to order a 2-week pack. Even if she didn’t see—and feel—amazing results, she would stick to it. Guess what? She did, and she has! “I can walk all day without pain. My knees do not swell so badly that I can't even sleep at night because of the pain. Medications have been reduced. I work out at my gym six days a week, and I love it. The other day, a newbie to the gym actually asked me if I was a trainer! I was stunned! Me—a trainer! In May of ’09, that would never have entered anyone's mind! I love what Medifast has done for me! Thank you, TSFL!”I know we have some success stories in the room with us today. Who would like to share a success story? Segue:We’ve heard some success stories.

- #22 Before starting the program, people gain weight as a result of taking in more caloriesthan they expend.The excess calories are stored as fat.In Phase 1, we lower your overall calories and create an energy gap between the amount of calories your body needs and what you are eating.After about threedays, you go into a fat-burning state in which your body uses the fat stored as an energy source. Once you hit your healthy weight, you begin a transition process, during which you will be adding more calories—and foods—to your diet.In Phase 2, you continue living the healthy habits you learned during weightloss (Phase 1) to keep if off and move toward Optimal Health.Segue:Let’s take closer look at each Phase.(Next Slide)

A Why is just a belief. That’s all it is. Howsare the actions you take to realize that belief. And Whats are the results of those actions – everything you say and do
