Meet Naomi Borg 25 (years old), upon joining the Marion Mizzi programme she achieved amazing results and has lost over 20 kilos. Below Naomi has opened up and shared her experience with us. 

Tell us about yourself and your relationship with food.

I am 25 years old and have always loved food, this made following strict diets very difficult for me to follow therefore I always struggled to lose those extra kilos which were bothering me. I had been trying to lose weight for a number of years but never managed to lose more than 5 kilos until I started the program at Marion Mizzi Wellbeing.

What made you start the weight loss journey?

(The defining moment when you said you need to make a change)

I started looking at myself in the mirror and didn’t like what I saw, I used to be uncomfortable in clothes and photos and knew I had to do something about it. My old lifestyle habits used to leave me very tired and I knew my body was not happy with what I was giving it.

What made you to choose Marion Mizzi instead of other weight loss programs?

(Had you heard good reviews from friends or relatives?)

The Marion Mizzi program was recommended to me by a colleague which had also lost a considerable amount of weight and changed her life to the better.

How did you find the diet plan?

(Was it easy to follow?)

The diet plan was very easy to follow but most of all it is enjoyable. Now that I have reached my goal I still enjoy eating and cooking recipes from the cookbooks which I found to be of immense help. To me, it’s not a diet anymore! It has become a lifestyle.

What did you enjoy doing most throughout the weight loss journey?

(A particular part of the routine which you’ve enjoyed)

Being 25 and still very much dependant on my parents, I took ownership of cooking and preparing food for myself which is something I enjoyed a lot. I plan my week ahead and prepare food for the day.

Did you like the recipes? What were/are your favourite meals?

(Do you still cook them regularly?)

The cookbooks are amazing and I cannot recommend them enough! I enjoy cooking and preparing food and trying new recipes. Being a pasta lover, one of my fave dishes is the meaty cannelloni page 172 from the purple book!

Which is your favourite meal replacement flavour?

I really enjoy the cookies flavour, I use it also to make ice cream and pancakes, they are tasty!

What was your transformation after the program?

(How much weight Or dress sizes from x to x did you lose?)

I started weighing 77.7 kilos and now I am down to 57.5 – that is 20kilos and from size 12/14 I am now a comfortable size 8!

What would you advise others who are thinking of starting their weight loss journey?

Never give up!  I have seen and experienced firsthand that nothing worth having comes easy, but it will be worth it. I have had downs in my journey, but I never gave up and I can see the result of that today. Nothing beats feeling comfortable and healthy in my own body!

Pippa lost 26 kilos! She is sharing her story with us.  

My success journey started when my dear friend suggested Marion Mizzi Wellbeing Slimming Club at the Palace Hotel in Sliema. 

I was a person who was living to eat, but not eating to live. I was nibbling a lot. I was feeling bad to undress in front of my partner. It was hard to put my shoes on… And all those things made me unhappy. Until I step into Marion Mizzi Slimming Club.

My weight was 93,1, and now I am 66,9 kilos I lost 26 kilos with Marion Mizzi programme. I had achieved what I wanted.

I am 62 years old, and I have always had a weight problem. I tried many different diets but could have reached only temporary results, and all the time, my lost weight was coming back. I couldn’t maintain the menu as a lifestyle until I started the Marion Mizzi programme.

The programme is the combination of the fantastic recipes (I didn’t have to refuse my favourite meals). Also, the staff always gives motivation and support, and I should mention amazing treatments that help inch-loss, fat, and cellulite reduction.

RECIPE BOOKS & AND MEALS TO DIE FOR

I started with the purple book, “A Journey To A Happy You.” The recipes are to die for. Once I did a cabbage pie, my husband and my son in law were disappointed that they would not be going to eat it.

The recipes are delicious, and it’s like you are eating regular food. It’s not only vegetables and grilled chicken, or salad every day as it wouldn’t last. It’s the combination of all food I like but in a healthy and calorie-counted way. You are not getting bored with this. I have used a lot of different recipes from 3 different Marion Mizzi books, they are excellent, have a strong taste, have many spices, and are not expensive to prepare. I was very strict to the recipes, If it’s written that I cannot add something, I have never added.

Whoever I showed this book they asked me: is it a DIET book?

HELPFUL STAFF

What I like about the programme that I was getting support anytime I needed it. The therapist always asked what I have cooked today, and they are motivating not to stick on one recipe not to get bored. They can always suggest some recipes that they were cooking! 

SLIMMING TREATMENTS & AMAZING DIP INTO THE POOL! 

My favourite treatment is Muscle Stimulation, and I found it very useful. It’s best to include different treatments, as when you are losing weight, you need to reduce that flatness that you are getting.

Furthermore, one is always motivated to lose weight, with free treatments as facial or slimming sessions.

However, it’s incredible that Marion’s Slimming club in Sliema, has a steam room and the pool. I love to wake up in the morning and start my day in the swimming pool and steam room.

 L-CARNITINE

The tablets are excellent. I found out that the older one gets, the metabolism does slow down. And the pills help to speed it up. (The L-Carnitine is a natural product which will help you to boost metabolism)

LAST WORDS

All the time, one can think that it’s a challenge that one cannot achieve. But YOU can ACHIEVE it. 

 

Pippa Xuereb lost 26 kilos with Marion Mizzi Wellbeing Slimming Programme. 

Meet Thomas Clinch, a very positive and intelligent person to whom I have the pleasure to speak today.

12 years ago Thomas met Marion Mizzi and since then his life has changed completely.

His journey did not start on what one can call one of our ‘traditional’ weight loss programmes. Thomas joined us when he decided to participate in a TV Show organised by Marion 12 years ago, called “Kilo”, where he and 13 other people were trying to lose weight and win a cash prize.

Initially, Thomas wasn’t selected as a participant, though someone dropped out of the show on the first night so eventually he was invited to replace said participant and that was when he first learned about “Marion Mizzi Wellbeing”.

What was it that drove him to participate in this show? Thomas answers – The first and most important factor was the doctor’s recommendation to lose weight.

Thomas was living a really nonchalant life, not caring about his health, not even about his family. He used to drink high amounts of alcohol on a daily basis, eating mostly junk food, he just had no control over the food he consumed. His weight at the time was 132 kilos and he could feel it in his knees, joints, and back – These were causing him constant pain – there was a need to do something about it. Moreover, the prize was very tempting, so the decision was made: “why not”.

Eventually, Thomas turned out to be the most dedicated participant in the programme. He lost 42 kilos and won the main prize. But this is not what he is excited about. He says “I wasn’t ashamed of how I looked, but what I am ashamed of, is how I was living”.

Since this event, Thomas’s life has absolutely changed. In Thomas’s words, Marion showed him what is really important and made him understand the impact of body weight for one’s general wellbeing.

After getting rid of excess weight Thomas’s joints never hurt again, he totally quit alcohol and junk food, he started going out and enjoying more time with his family. “My look, my life, and my view are absolutely different since then – I started to care about life and now I feel like a 30 year old man. I can hold my breath, I can run, walk and feel pleasure doing it. Marion Mizzi has changed my life and I will be always grateful for what she did.”

Thomas gives one word of advice to everyone:

“If you are in pain – the best medicine is to lose weight. Doctors cannot do miracles. You must heal yourself.”

The consultation is free of charge. 

Have you tried to lose weight before and why didn’t it work?
I had tried to lose weight multiple times before, but every time I failed because the meals were not filling and I found myself snacking a lot.

I decided it was time to start taking my health seriously and start a weight loss programme when I began to suffer from pain in my knees. I realised that the pain was due to the fact I was overweight and my knees couldn’t support my body weight. I heard a lot about Marion Mizzi’s weight loss programme from my friends and on Facebook, so I decided to try it out for myself.

During my weight loss journey, the biggest challenge I encountered was my cravings and temptation to eat foods that were not included in my weight loss programme. I had to control myself and with help of the Marion Mizzi staff, I managed to overcome these cravings.

At first I found it difficult to follow the diet plan, but with time I was able to memorise and master the recipes of my favorite meals. Now I find it very easy to stick to the diet plan, and I have always food prepared.

My favourite meal replacement was the vegetable soup, and strawberry sweet. They are very tasty, contain all necessary vitamins and minerals, and keep me full for many hours. Among the treatments I found the Muscle Stimulation, Radio Frequency, and Lipo Cavitation very useful.

Attending the Marion Mizzi weight loss programme was a life changing experience for me, and since I started, I feel beautiful, sexy and I am more confident in everything I do.

My one piece of advice for others struggling to lose weight or feeling uncomfortable in their own bodies:
Stay focused, disciplined, be positive, and be strong to achieve your goal. Only then will you find happiness and confidence whilst being healthy!

Aaron lost 40 kilos!

I decided I needed to lose weight, because even completing daily chores were tiring for me. I have tried to lose weight before, but I found it really hard to follow the diet during the school period, and I ended up quitting my diet.

After doing some research, Marion Mizzi Wellbeing became the standout choice. They have a great reputation, and I knew I needed someone to guide me through my weight loss journey, motivating and encouraging me every step of the way.

The most challenging part for me was getting my mind to adapt to the changes I had to make in my daily routine. Following the diet plan wasn’t that hard as it is very varied and has lots of delicious dishes. However, you need to be patient with yourself, train your body and mind whilst changing your habits to adapt to the new situation.

You have to remind yourself, constantly, that every minute of this journey will lead you towards losing the weight that you piled on out of lack of love for yourself.

Apart from the diet itself and the combination of food and quantities, I found the Muscle Stimulation Treatment very effective in helping me lose weight and reach my goal.

Now that I have reached my goal, I am always concerned about what I’m eating, and I always keep in mind that I have to work hard for the treat I allow myself once in a while.

My thought that in order to lead a normal life you not only to be slim but most importantly healthy, was the driving force behind my performance. I have seen a major transformation not only in my appearance, but also in my health and activeness.

The advice I can share with those who plan on following a weight loss program is to do it today. Don’t postpone your health and happiness. Don’t start dieting just because you feel bad about yourself. Do it because you owe it to yourself.

Rowena lost 25 kilos!

I had previously lost weight with a variety of other diets and slimming clubs, but I found the programs were not sustainable or realistic enough to maintain as a lifestyle.

However, I found the Marion Mizzi Weight Loss programme to be more realistic and easier to maintain, although it does require a lot of commitment.

Whenever I would go shopping, I could never manage to find clothes that fitted me well. This was the kick start I needed to provide me with the motivation to get in shape and lose weight.

The level of support Marion Mizzi Slimming provides is superb, and I love the fact that the diet is personalised to your individual needs. Marion Mizzi Slimming also teaches you how to make good choices, and it soon becomes a way of life.

I often struggled with trying to fit twice a week sessions into a working mum’s schedule, where there’s a will there’s a way.

The delicious diet plan is super easy to follow, and whenever I found any difficulty with making recipes, help was only a phone call or message away.

My favourite recipe to make is the mushroom stroganoff, whilst the treatment I found the most helpful on my journey was the Presso Therapy.

I liked the anticipation before every weigh in, the way I was congratulated – even when I lost as little as 100g, as well as the courage, motivation, and advice I was given by the staff when I got stuck in a plateau. This mixture of feelings and deep rooted support enabled me to achieve my weight loss goals.

Before joining Marion Mizzi Slimming, I lacked self-confidence and loathed shopping. The results I achieved have helped me to love myself again, and enabled me to dress up and flaunt my curves on a girl’s night out. On top of achieving my amazing results, Marion Mizzi Slimming taught me how to take care of maintaining my weight to ensure sure I continue to live a good quality life.

At Marion’s, they teach you to make good choices without needing to deprive yourself of the occasional treat. This slimming programme changed my mentality towards healthy living and has helped me become a healthier person.

Mario Spiteri lost 50kg

I have tried losing weight several times before I started using Marion Mizzi Slimming. I think that I never previously succeeded because I lacked consistent support from not only the people around me, but also the instructors.

My main goal was to become healthier, fitter and lose weight in order to look better and feel more confident about myself.

I chose Marion Mizzi after hearing about the amazing success people had achieved, I knew that they must be very professional in what they do.

I initially struggled with the weight loss programme as I found it quite time consuming and I had not given it priority in my life. However, after much encouragement, and after seeing the results already starting to come in, I became more motivated, and ensured I put 100% of my effort, and energy into achieving my weight loss goals.

The diet plans are delicious and extremely varied which really helped me follow the diet plan. The Marion Mizzi recipe books were also really helpful when it came to planning my meals, and discovering methods to tweak my favourite meals, making them healthier.

Since I began my journey with Marion Mizzi Slimming, my life has changed dramatically. I finally feel healthier, more confident, and can finally say I believe in myself!

Marion Mizzi Slimming helped me break my old negative and destructive habits, teaching me to take up healthy eating habits and training routines. I have started loving going to the gym, something I previously detested with a passion. I make sure I include a good work out into my daily routine.

I would like to encourage anyone struggling with weight issues to never give up. Where there is a will there is a way.

I would like to thank the Marion Mizzi team for the constant support, and my loving wife who supports me in everything I do. Without your support and encouragement, I would not have been as successful.
