“I decided to join Merit while I was on my 20th Wedding Anniversary trip to Mexico. It was so hot with 100% humidity & I had no energy. I was sluggish, out of breath, out of shape, & overweight. It was there that I decided once I got back I’d join. I returned July 3rd and had my first appointment July 6th. This time I decided I wouldn’t deprive myself of any food. I wouldn’t just stick to salad, grilled chicken & veggies for the rest of my life. I still eat the same as I did before joining Merit. I would just make sure I’d add in more protein, drink more water, & just eat smaller portions. I wasn’t going to give up my morning coffee & occasional evening cocktails. So far it’s working! Stephanie & Veronica have been a tremendous help! Adding Linnie is another added bonus, being that she brings the same energy. Not only by opening Merit, a gorgeous, inviting, encouraging, & fun place. But it doesn’t have the cold hospital feel to it. I see them weekly for my own accountability. We spend time talking about goals, struggles, what is coming up to be aware of, etc. o truly get one on one time instead of being rushed at my appointments. The whole environment has been the most helpful in my journey!!”
