Brian Maxfield with Cedar City has had great success and has seen amazing results since he started The Apple Program®. In four months Brian lost over 50 pounds! Additionally, his cholesterol dropped by over 40 points, his diastolic blood pressure dropped by over 20 points, his triglycerides dropped by over 137, his glucose dropped over 50 points, and he lost four inches around his waist. Way to go Brian!
Even more important than Brian's success on the scale and with his biometrics is his improved quality of life. Brian will be the first to tell you that "it feels good" to now be able to comfortably hike to Angel's Landing with his family, improve his golfing skills through increased flexibility, and to watch the news while he does spinning on his stationary bike.
Brian remarks that from the very beginning he was excited about the program. Over the years the weight gain had been gradual, but after getting his assessment results in late June he knew he needed to take action and make changes in his life. Brian said that The Apple Program helped show him the path to make those changes. Brian set specific and measurable goals with his Apple Health Coach® which were gradually increased as he successfully mastered each goal. Brian attributes much of his success to eating a healthy breakfast each day, getting 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily, doing aerobic exercise for 30 minutes daily, and doing strength training three times each week as well.
Brian knows the other reason for his success is accountability. He feels the tracking system set up through The Apple Program as well as his own personal food journal helped him to succeed. Knowing that his coach would call him to discuss his progress was motivational as well.Brian expressed his feelings about The Apple Program and his success best when he said "You can kid yourself for a long time knowing you need to make changes, but this program provides the vehicle to make those changes and see measurable results."
