Shannon's Story

"HMR is life changing. I feel like I have my life back. HMR is the easiest diet I've ever done." Every time Shannon lost weight, she gained it right back. She tried fad diets, diet pills, and more. But nothing worked. Until HMR®. “When you’re as overweight as I was, you become almost invisible,” she says. “Now, I feel like I have my life back. People I haven’t seen in some time don’t recognize me—I love it when this happens.” For Shannon, HMR offered more than just a quick fix. Shannon lost 70 pounds with HMR’s Shakes, Entrees, personal guidance, and lifestyle education. What’s more, she has experienced invaluable health benefits, including cholesterol levels that dropped from 183 to 129. “Today, I sleep more soundly and have more energy,” she explains. “I even run now that my body is lighter. I have my self-esteem back.” Shannon made her decision to try HMR after seeing how much money she was spending each month on groceries and dining out. Instead, she decided to invest in her health. “HMR is the easiest diet I’ve ever done,” Shannon says. “Between all the entrees and shakes I had plenty of choices, but it was all laid out for me. All the dishes are quick and easy to make. And the positive environment HMR offered in their classes was so important. They were non-judgmental and always supportive.” And today? “I still use HMR—I’ll always be HMR’s number-one fan!” Results not representative of all patients in the HMR Program at McKinney Diabetes and Weight Management. For many dieters, weight loss is temporary when behaviors taught are not practiced regularly.
