Meet Deidre Purcell, Winner #3 of the “Vtrim Giveaway for Readers of More Magazine”
Today we’d like to introduce you to our final winner of the Vtrim Giveaway for Readers of More Magazine. Weight management is serious stuff, and our winners are handing it with grace and energy.
Let us introduce you to Deidre Purcell, who has already lost 5 pounds with Vtrim Online and loves the social support she gets in her weekly online class and live chat.
Deidre Purcell, 45, Clifton Park, NY
Deirdre is too busy to make time for her own health. She works full-time, and she’s a wife and mother, which means carpooling the kids to games, lessons and activities.
How is Deidre doing now that she’s on Vtrim?
“I am feeling really good. The first 4 days after journaling I could feel that my body was missing or craving more than I was giving it. The Vtrim program is a real eye-opener as to what a person consumes, how many calories, fat grams, etc.”
What has surprised Deidre so far on her weight loss journey?
“What surprised me the most was the calorie intake and fat intake I would consume daily. By journaling my diet I am able to be more conscious as to what is going into my body! It is just amazing how the intake of calories and fat can affect one’s system both physically and health wise.”
What is Deidre’s favorite Vtrim Online tool?
“My favorite part of the Vtrim dashboard is the Journal. When you write something down and are able to see exactly how many calories there are in a given item/meal it wakes you up as to how easy it is to go over a recommended daily calorie and fat intake.”
What is the most helpful lesson or piece of advice so far for Deidre?
“What I have found to be helpful is the online chats and sessions. To have the support of others is a huge asset to trying to achieve a goal. In my case to discuss how others adjust their daily routines, what they are doing and what they eat.”
Three cheers for Deidre! We’re so glad you enjoy the classes. Oftentimes, we learn so much from each other and realize that we’re not alone when it comes to weight loss and management.

Hi Deidre… I’m often in the Clifton Park area as I drive through on my way to Saratoga visiting family. If you ever want to meet up with another Vtrimmer and go for a walk around SPAC or somewhere, just give me a shout via email or blog comment! I am LOVING all that I’ve learned through my 24 weeks on Vtrim and am fitter and healthier than I have been in years and years as a result! I hope you’re finding the program every bit as AWESOME as I have!
