HOW THE SLIMFAST PLAN WORKS

How Chelsea lost 168 lbs.

—one day at a time!

One year, 168 pounds —gone—one day at a time. Not long

after losing the weight, and keeping it off† with The SlimFast® Plan, Chelsea C. became the Weight Loss Transformation Coordinator for SlimFast, a career move that has given her the opportunity to help others on their own weight loss journey.

Chelsea C. was a size 26 in high school. She had accepted her role as the “fat friend” among skinny girls and used humor as a way of coping with her weight. Lack of confidence led to isolation and depression, which resulted in her building horrible eating habits. From an early age, it was common to hear how pretty she was, followed shortly by, “If only you were thin.”

In high school, she reached her heaviest weight and fueled her insecurities with food—sneaking late-night snacks and bingeing until the early hours of the morning. When she turned 15, Chelsea moved to New York City to live with her father. Relocating could have been a turning point in her life, however, city life only reinforced her insecurities and provided access to an abundance of unhealthy food, which sabotaged her attempts to lose weight. “I was insecure, overweight, and comforting my pain

through food. There was an ever-growing list of reasons why I needed to lose weight and an excuse for each one.” Over the next few years there would be moments of motivation in the form of fad diets, calorie counting, restrictive eating, food diaries and an obsession with the scale, only to lose a few pounds and gain it all back, and then some!

Finally, at age 24, Chelsea became fed up and decided to commit herself to losing the weight for good. “I realized that to lose weight and keep it off, I had to do it for me—not to please anyone else.” Fed up with feeling tired, uncomfortable in her own skin, overweight and unhealthy, Chelsea decided to start fresh. She moved to Florida, and began making healthier food choices. Slowly, her energy and self-confidence increased. “I worked one day at a time to be a more positive person and reflect the image I always wanted to project—a healthier, more energetic and overall happier me.”

As the Weight Loss Transformation Coordinator of the SlimFast Brand Ambassadors, Chelsea offers a unique perspective to candidates on their weight loss journey with SlimFast, as she’s been where they are and can show that it’s possible, “The chance
