GBSo Appreciative of all of the assistance I am a Wife of 23 years, a mother of two adult children, 37 and 32 and Grandmother to 5, ages 5-8 and, I am a Director of Programs (Non-Residential) for the Arc of Davidson County, Inc, a company that advocates and cares for individuals with developmental disabilities. I have largely dedicated my adult life to caring for others, my husband, my children, my job, anything but myself. As a woman, we fall into that trap. Historically, self-care has been seen as selfish and caring for others has been seen as selfless. Selflessness being the preferred option. I looked at myself January 2, 2023, I weighed 303 lbs., my highest weight yet. I lived my life sitting in my recliner. I typically got up, worked the day cooked supper, and landed in the recliner until bedtime and got up to do it again. The trip to the grocery store was exhausting. I am 5’8” but that is still very heavy. I have 5 grandchildren. I would watch them out the window when they came to visit, I couldn’t go outside to play with them. I just didn’t have the energy. I had the desire. I lived what I thought to be a very sad life. I was depressed. Who wouldn’t be? I made the decision to do something! I started counting my calories. It was hard but I had lost about 10 lbs. in a month. I connected with Andres Ayesta on Instagram and he and I began talking in the chat. He began telling me about the Planos program and asking me about my life. What he was telling me made sense. I signed on the end of February and connected with my coach shortly after. She has been nothing short of a Godsend. I cannot say enough good things about Ceci. Part friend, part mentor, part coach and I am sure she could kick my butt if I needed it. I want this so badly that I don’t believe she will ever need to do it. I have lost nearly 50 lbs. I feel better. I am more active than I have been in decades. I have signed up for and completed a 5k (now I walk 3 miles almost daily uphill on my treadmill). I have been attending t-ball games for my grandchildren and getting ready to go to a dance recital for a granddaughter and these events do not do me in for the day. I still have energy to do my regular everyday activities. I am somewhere between 1/3 and ½ way to goal. The goal is fluid as I don’t know where my body will land. I am leaving that to my body. I will find a comfortable healthy weight. If I hadn’t acted, I would either still be in that awful depressing chair right now or worse. Love yourself enough to take care of yourself. Allow yourself the help to get to your goals. Planos, and especially Ceci, have been invaluable in this health journey. It’s not just weight loss. It is the whole person. I have learned boundaries; self-care is not selfish among many other valuable things. Planos takes a holistic approach to health.

GBI was skeptical going in I was skeptical going in. Wasn't really sure I could make the necessary changes. For the first few weeks, I was still a little resistant, trying to do things the way I'd always done them. By the end of the 6 weeks though, I had made some key small steps in the right direction and felt more motivated than I have in a long while. I went back to the basics and Coach Andres was very helpful all along the way. I love how the program is setup: the detailed check-ins, feedback, and the holistic approach where they target your mindset, movement, stress, sleep patterns, etc. I also love that it's not a quick approach to weight loss.....while I only lost a couple pounds, I know that I gained several good habits (lower caffeine intake, higher water intake, not skipping breakfast, acknowledging small wins, tracking my higher protein breakfast...) for moving forward this week and beyond. Thanks Planos!

GBAmazing! Planos has been amazing and life changing for me. I’ve been working with Andres and he’s taught me to learn to love myself through every season of life. I’ve learned about how my body works, that there is no bad food, how to create meal plans and how to listen to my body.

GBI am an enthusiastic supporter! I can enthusiastically recommend working with Planos. I had gotten into the routine of eating "on the go" foods which was not good. Working with the members of the team, I learned a lot about nutrition and exercise and of course, the importance of drinking water! I also learned to prioritize my time for planning meals and snacks, all if which are key. The team members follow up and truly care.
