A Shout Out to MizFit Online
Monday, July 13th, 2009
All of us here at Vtrim were psyched to see the Vtrim Weight Management Program highlighted by MizFit Online. Yes, I used the word psyched on a research-based, very serious weight loss program blog! After reading through all of the informative, practical and frankly hysterical posts by “MizFit” herself – Carla Birnberg – I’m inspired to jazz up my post today. Thanks, Carla.
First, I must say that the amount of comments made on MizFit’s blog made me realize just how many people she reaches. Readers weighed in on Heather’s top five tips to trim calories from your daily diet – and had some great things to say about the Vtrim approach.
We want to know what you’re thinking! Chime in and leave a comment, question or story for us – we’d love to hear from more of you. You can also let me know what you want to know more about (and what you’ve heard enough of!). I promise Heather and I will oblige. (I’ll admit I’m still getting up to speed on all things blogosphere, Twitter, and Facebook).
I was happy to see that the comments regarding MizFit’s Vtrim post were exactly what we think up here in the far northeast neck of the US. Weight management doesn’t have to be incredibly complicated to work. Science-based does not mean the latest, quick-fix formula in a bottle that will solve all of your weight issues. If only it were that simple! Well, it almost is. Vtrim is about embracing the simple formula of “eat less, move more” on an everyday basis.
From research, we do know that the formula is in fact that simple, but the implementation is not so easy in the crazy, fast-paced world most of us live in. Simple and easy just aren’t interchangeable words. Modifying ingrained behaviors and having lots of support to change an old mindset is what’s critical to making the changes stick.
Take a peak at the MizFit post – we even got a “Vtrimmer,” as we like to call our participants, to pipe in on the comments section and speak from experience. Thanks, ubervixen – your story was inspiring!
The support people feel in their Vtrim online group (plus a lot of hard work) is what helps propel them from wanting to lose weight to actually losing weight. There is no better day than today to evaluate where you are and where you want to be. Vtrim can help you get there.
Ciao for now! Beth
