Today we’d like to introduce you to Sarah Ford.
Sarah, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I had lost 45 pounds myself, which drew me into getting my degree in General Studies/ Nutrition and Wellness Studies and then getting right into the weight loss industry. I have a natural passion for health and helping others get healthy, and losing weight is a big part of that. Before co-founding SlimGENEration, I had been on weight loss about 12 years and decided that I wanted to change the weight loss industry.
All the programs out there only dealt with the diet and exercise portion and I knew there had to be more to losing weight and keeping it off. The co-founder and I sat down and really started researching as to “why” people don’t lose weight and “why” they don’t keep it off.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Life is always a journey and have not always been a smooth road. In the beginning just getting people to believe in what we did and looking at weight loss from a completely new stand point was a challenge. We are way beyond the average weight loss program and it takes a person a while to digest what we do. Once they do, they understand and believe though.
We have been through website hacks and other internet issues… but all in all we are here and standing strong, ready to take on the world!
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about SlimGENEration – what should we know?
SlimGENEration is a completely new approach to weight loss. First, we started to research DNA and how it plays a big role in the way he body responds to protein, fats and carbohydrates. From there we decided to create a plan to educate a client on how to fit that information to someone’s lifestyle, so they are not “deprived”. I always say… Diets are something you “do” or Don’t Do”. SlimGENEration becomes your lifestyle, therefore it changes your life and you lose your weight and then maintain for life!
Now, along with the DNA, we use 5 other “internal” tests to see what kind of imbalances there are that are causing a person weight issues. These can be adrenal fatigue, inflammation, thyroid issues and nutrient imbalances. Once we know what kind of imbalances a person has, we work to correct those all while guiding them on their “eating” plan using their own DNA.
It truly is a 2-fold approach to weight loss… and is one of a kind!
We create a No Guesswork approach to weight loss, all while fitting the plan to a client’s lifestyle… incorporating their favorite foods and what works for them. This program is based on “science” and is not a one size fits all approach.
