A Mix-Up at The Gym Becomes a Memorable, Milestone Moment

Michelle Began Her Journey with
The Little Black Dress Course
I had one of the most unexpected moments at the gym recently.
As I was getting ready for my workout,
I accidentally grabbed my 10-year old
daughter's leggings.
At first, I laughed when I realized the mix-up. Then I thought: "There's no way these will fit."
Out of pure curiosity, I tried them on, and to my amazement, they fit! I couldn't believe it.
It wasn't about wearing my daughter's leggings,
it was about seeing how much my body has changed through months of applied effort, consistency, and healthier choices.
That unexpected moment reminded me that progress often shows up in ways you never expect.
Weight loss is not always about the number on
the scale; sometimes it's about the little surprises that help you realize how far you've come.
A simple mix-up at the gym became one of the most memorable milestones in my journey, and I am incredibly grateful for every step that has brought me here.

Una, Using Imagination

It is my honour to write a testimonial about Donna. My name is Una, and I am 75 years old.
I met Donna four years ago when she was giving a speech at an International Ladies Club function in Grand Cayman.
Shortly after that, I had back surgery.
Water therapy was recommended for my recovery; thus, I went to Donna’s Burdenko water fitness classes. My back and leg are completely healed, and I now go to the class simply because I love it and also because I have met some lovely ladies.
Getting to know Donna, I discovered that she is an expert in helping people lose weight and improve their lifestyles. I decided that I wanted to lose ten pounds so that I didn’t have to ‘squeeze’ into my clothes.
Donna set up a personal programme for me (including time on my treadmill), and we achieved my goal. No pressure, just good common sense, and good decisions.
I highly recommend Donna as a Lifestyle Coach.
Note from Donna
For Una's success, we applied a specific strategy to engage her imagination,
and week-by-week,
it worked.

Sarah, A Birthday Date with a Smaller Size


"With a significant birthday ahead, Sarah decided it was time to get herself back in control and get under the 200lb. mark.
She began on-line coaching with Donna three months before
her birthday.

"Having previously followed an extreme & restrictive 'diet' (which had resulted in weight regain), Sarah knew she needed a way of healthy living that was sustainable.
She was thrilled to be eating real food, and to feel totally satisfied.
Did she make her birthday goal?
YES!
Anne, Down a Decade
Anne had lost weight before and regained it.
With two problem knees and severely restricted activity, she piled back on the pounds.
Post-Op, she was yearning to get back to her leaner, fitter self, and tells the story of Donna appearing at the exact right time (*under her balcony at a vacation resort).
It was divinely appointed, and they met together for a healthy lunch once weekly on the tropical island until Anne returned to her home in the U.S.
Their on-line sessions continued, and undaunted by the challenges of life (including shoulder surgery), Anne continued working with Donna and achieved her healthiest weight.
Down a Decade!
That's what Anne calls it, with each 10 lbs. down the scale.
She is 10+ decades down (in less than a year) and at her healthiest weight.
Having fun on the journey was important for her, so we built in healthier versions of the foods she enjoys (sweets).
Now retired, Anne knew she had to reduce weight in order to continue her passion for travel and diving. She remains focused on her target with staying power through weekly coaching sessions and is committed to Finishing.
Her vision:
Travel
Diving
Adventure
Ease of Mobility
