It’s not about completely changing what you eat.
It’s about making small changes, one at a time, to what you already do.
Here's how the Get Healthier 8 Week Challenge opens the door to weight loss and being your healthiest self
You'll adopt one new healthier habit each week. The reason it's spread out is so you get a chance to ease in. You're human, and most humans do better with change in small bites.
You'll cut back on your favourite snacks (but not as much as you might think).
You'll eat more vegetables and protein because, well, they're basically magic. You'll also learn more about why they're important, and you'll get suggestions for how much you need.
You'll take a look at some of your behaviours around food. Don't worry you won't have to spend Sunday putting all your meals for the week in tupperware containers, and you won't have to start counting how many times you chew each bite of food.
You'll also add a little movement into your week, and look at sleep, stress, and what I like to call hobby eating.
I'm so sure you're going to love this program, that I'm offering a 100% money-back guarantee.
Here's what previous participants had to say:
"Your challenge was reasonable in its expectations, inspiring in its content, and successful in its goal to get me lean(er). I have new habits which I'm sure will continue, because they're easy. I'm optimistic because none of them killed me to do. I never felt like I had to deny myself. If I was hungry, I ate. I just ate different things, healthier things. More vegetables, more protein. I exercised. I drank water. I slept. Nothing crazy. But so effective. I've had such great results. (Not that I'm counting, but I lost almost 20 pounds!) Most importantly, I'm feeling more like my old self. I'm planning on playing tennis this summer, finally!"

“I so enjoyed the program, the process, the results, and the lingering satisfaction of having permanently adopted several new life habits”
Jennifer
“Unbelievable!! Thanks so much for your help. It's been really exciting fitting into clothes that I've missed wearing and given these results, it really impresses upon me how changing a few habits can really impact your body. The before and after photos are striking! The photo of the back is by far the most impressive but I can see changes from all of the angles.”
Vanessa
“Thank you for a great 8 weeks. I reached my goal and would like to keep going to see what will happen. Today I had lunch at an indian buffet, and I was surprised to not feel a craving for seconds (or thirds).”
Louis
“Thank you for offering such a great program.....well for me more a new found
'way of life'. I especially liked the indulgences part; it made me think about what I am eating and it allowed me to enjoy some of my weakness in a planned way."
Shanta
"I started on this new lifestyle in early January and have stuck with it since. I feel better, lighter and it’s less of a struggle to make the healthier choices now – they’ve just become habit.”
Jennifer
"It's a miracle. 2.5 inches off the waist and 3 inches off the hips. This would explain why the dress zipped up so easily last week : ) I am completely flabbergasted. You clearly have a very good program here!!! Again, more work remains to be done in my case but this is very promising indeed. I hope to build on this success by continuing on with the eight habits :)"

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK
I love food. For me, it's beer and red wine (not together!), chips (sour cream and onion is my go to), homemade chocolate chip cookies, and pizza. Oh, and Thai food, and tacos, and pasta. And cheese. And, and, and...
For years I carried some extra weight. It wasn't a big deal to me as I was healthy and active. But one day I decided to do a little investigating. I sort of wanted to drop some weight, but I was not willing to do anything drastic. So I started a food diary to see if there were small changes I could make. It turns out there were! I tweaked my breakfast, started eating more vegetables, and switched from beer and chips to beer or chips. Those small changes led to me dropping 25 pounds in the span of a few months! That was almost 20 years ago.
Fast forward to 2013 and I launched the Get Healthier 8 Week Challenge for the first time, using the same small changes instead of major changes philosophy. It turns out what worked for me also worked for other people.
It's now 2023, and there have been over 1000 Get Healthier 8 Week Challenge participants! So far all of the feedback I've received has been very positive. I guess I'm not the only one who was looking for a way to get healthier and lose some weight without completely changing how I live.
Not sure? Consider these three thoughts
This approach has worked for a lot of people. It's doable. It's informative. It's even enjoyable to read (according to many, many emails from past challenge participants).
It's only $27 (Canadian), and there's a 100% money-back guarantee. In other words, you've got nothing to lose. Except maybe some pounds and unhealthy habits.
Wouldn't it be nice to try a healthier living and weight loss program that doesn't involve giving up the foods you love or filling your fridge with tupperware containers of broccoli, chicken and rice?

My approach to training clients at Custom Strength follows a similar approach as I use in the Get Healthier Challenge: try to meet people where they are, make sure it's doable, make it enjoyable (maybe enjoyable-ish is more accurate), and understand that you don't have to make it from a to z all at once.
If you'd like to get a sense of what others think of me (and my gym) and also the type of people who like my approach, search for Custom Strength Ottawa on Google and read through our Google reviews.
