Mike and Tami Malan with Consultnet


Mike and Tami of Consultnet have thoroughly been enjoying the perks of their new lifestyles. Mike and Tami both began making their changes by joining gyms and becoming members of LA Weight Loss. The results they experienced since then have motivated them to continue on their paths of incorporating health into their daily lives.

Mike has not only lost 40 pounds but the pain in his knees has ceased, he’s lowered his triglycerides and cholesterol, sleeps better, is able to go backpacking and fishing without being a straggler, and has more energy to fulfill his daily tasks. Tami has enjoyed the positive changes she’s noticed in her appearance and the extra stamina she gets when it comes to fulfilling her job.

They both made changes to their diet by adding more fruits and vegetables such as: apples, mangos, bananas, carrots, celery, and peas. Tami also enjoys having five small meals a day to prevent overconsumption of servings.

When it comes to exercising, Tami meets up with a friend in the mornings five days a week to walk and circuit train. Mike aims for 180 minutes of physical activity each week to maintain his weight loss.

The online goal tracker with The Apple Program® has helped Mike and Tami maintain their focus and achieve their goals of maintaining optimum health. Mike has also enjoyed having the availability of an Apple Health Coach® to turn to when he has questions regarding his fitness or nutrition regimens.

Mike is in charge of managing the benefits portion at Consultnet; this includes selecting cost efficient health plans. As Mike researched the high costs associated with chronic illness, he learned how important it was to have employees who were healthy and free of chronic diseases. In order to tackle these potential high costs, Consultnet decided to implement The Apple Program® to keep their costs low. Mike has been very pleased with this decision, as the employees and their spouses are seeing beneficial results and giving positive feedback in regards to The Apple Program®. Mike is pleased that the program is not only benefiting him but his company as well.

Mike looks forward to moving on with his life in good health. He realizes that he will now have a higher quality of lifestyle, than he would have, if he hadn’t made these health changes. He would like to tell others, “You would not believe the positive impact 40 pounds of weight loss has on you, both physically and emotionally.”

Tami would also like to advise others, “Start small and gradually build upon those small changes, and then you will eventually develop good habits. Remember, you don’t need sweets, and you don’t need fast food to survive!”

Mike and Tami, as a couple, have come together and motivated and encouraged each other in their pursuit of health. They look forward to continuing on with that and enjoying many wonderful years of good health together.
