Success Stories

”Elite’s Food Plan was a positive lifestyle change for me, not a “diet”. The healthy eating habits I have established through the use of the menu plans have given me the right source of energy in order to get the most out of my workouts, and get me through my busy workday. The recipes are really delicious and easy to follow. Initially, I had planned to follow the menu plans until I reached my goal weight. However, because my general sense of well being has vastly improved since changing my eating habits for the better, I intend to incorporate the philosophy of the food plan into my life for good!”

~ Angela Sedore, Grade School Teacher

”For the first time in my life I was able to stay on an eating schedule where I could see results quickly and didn’t have to long for my next meal. Mirela set things up well and then she and Marty made sure that I was held accountable with my nutrition journal. I’m not sure how they remembered my little ice cream entry out of nearly 200 journals that they see each week. My opinion is that they care enough about their clients results that they talk to you regularly about your nutrition if they think there is room to improve. That is what works for me and it clearly had a great effect!”

~ Heather Spencer, Employment Consultant

“To be perfectly honest before joining the Elite Training Program I never, ever would eat fresh vegetables and very rarely would I eat fresh fruit. The lunch & learn classes taught me not only the importance of eating properly but how to eat properly. I have always kept in the back of my mind Marty’s comment on “if it doesn’t rot – it’s not food” & this is basically my tool for grocery shopping. Thanks to the Elite program I now not only crave fresh veggies & fruit but I’m thinking I could almost survive on them alone!!! It truly changed my eating habits as well as the way I feed my family. I feel more healthy & alive then ever!!”

“Eating ‘healthy’ was never something I was good at. But the Elite meal plan was realistic and the longer I stuck to it, the easier it became. A year later I’ve kept off the weight and I have to contribute a large part of my success to Elite’s nutritional programming! “

~ Teresa Purzner, Neurosurgeon

“I have tried exercising off and on for years as well as fad diets… Changing my eating habits with the information that Mirela has taught me is the only thing that has worked AND lasted. I have lost 26lbs in 4 months and feel better overall, It honestly has changed me in a positive way. It has also taught me that eating right is definitely the most important aspect to being healthy, next to exercise.”

~Vanessa Boekhorst, Team Leader

“I am most impressed with the Elite Advantage Eating Plan! I found it to be nutritionally sound, very easy to follow and most importantly, I was never hungry while following it! As a physiotherapist and active athlete, a healthy lifestyle is a priority. The Elite Advantage Eating Plan has allowed me to continue to work out, eat great meals and have lots of energy. Thanks!”

~ Andrea Scott, Physiotherapist

“I have worked out for years, and never really gave any thought to my eating….then I stopped going to the gym for a period of time, and started eating more (especially since I quit smoking almost a year ago too), and the biggest change for me has not necessarily been from the workouts (although they do help) but more so from the choices I have now made with food. In the beginning of this challenge it was literally painful for me come 8pm (my usual time to rummage through the kitchen and find a snack), but I took their advice and called it an early night rather than stay up and suffer the cravings…I honestly never thought the urge to snack would go away, but you guys were right, I stuck with it, and now I’m not even hungry at night anymore! Today I am back on track and feel so much better about myself than I did 6 months ago. Thank you to everyone at Elite who has been a part of my transformation, mind, body, and soul!!“

~ Stacy Latendresse, Corporate Manager

“My eating habits have changed so much. I now eat steel cut oats for breakfast, I eat smaller portions, I’ve added two snacks to keep my metabolism in check, and I eat lean proteins at each meal. I’ve noticed I am less hungry and do not have cravings like I used too. I used to be a ‘second helping’ person at every meal and that has stopped. Adding breakfast and snacks has had a huge impact on my energy levels and the best part is I have lost inches and pounds.“

~ Michelle Cliche, School Teacher

“Where do I start? I am not sure that a few sentences can sum up how eating healthy has changed my life, but here it goes. I have always struggled with my weight and my self confidence when it comes to my body/appearance. I reached my highest weight ever last year, and was so unhappy inside that it was starting to affect my entire life, and then all of that changed. After being introduced to the Elite Personal Training Staff, and their expertise on healthy eating and staying fit, my confidence has gone up, and my fears are slowly going away. I have more energy now, than I have had in years, and I am increasing my endurance and strength with the assistance of weight training. My performance levels in all aspects of my life have increased, and I am confident that they will continue to only get better. I have recently reached my first goal of losing 30 pounds, and have just added another 5 to that. Every time that I look at myself in the mirror, I notice a huge change to my outer appearance, which makes my inner self feel so good, and so proud. Eating healthier and exercising makes me feel better about myself, and let’s face it, I love the positive feedback I get in my fitter body. Thanks to the AMAZING STAFF at Elite! Keep on pushing me!“
