I went to Ted to help me understand all things macros as I wanted to lose fat and build lean muscle. He provided me with the appropriate macro counts and support to help me achieve these goals. Ted has a calming and assuring personality and is always available if you have questions or just need a little encouragement. I recommend Ted to anyone who needs some personalized guidance and direction to reach their goals. You will not be sorry. Thanks Ted!!

I reached out to Coach Ted after starting my own process, so I had a good sense of what to do. I needed better accountability and guidance, and that's what I got. I dropped about 20 pounds of fat and gained about 10 pounds of muscle, slow and steady, over the coaching period. Very happy with the help and the process.

At 56 years old, things are different than they were at 35 or 45. Weight loss and fitness are more challenging and require more work, much more. It was a home video that really woke me up. It was like someone had inflated me, and I was disgusted by what I saw. I tried the solitary method of trying to get myself into the gym, eating better. It worked maybe 10 percent of the time and the weight was increasing along with some depression at the lack of change. I happened to be with some friends talking about the subject and Coach Ted came up. My friend is in great shape, runs routine triathlons and marathons. I thought, why would you possibly need a health coach? Diet, accountability, positivity, and motivation were the reasons. So I signed up. And I am finally on the path I want and need. Weight is coming off (1/2 way to my goal), I'm eating better and am in better shape than I have been in years. No regrets.

I started working with Coach Ted to give me accountability with my food choices. I got that and so much more! Coach provides helpful insights and great tips to help you through, in addition to the accountability. The program is very organized, easy to do and thoughtfully planned out. For years, I restricted myself on my food choices and now at this time in my life, I wanted to be less restricted and more balanced. That is what I found with counting macros! I know that counting macros is the way I am going to be managing my weight loss goals from now on. Based on a questionnaire, Coach Ted is able to tell you how many macros to have each day whether you are exercising or if it's a rest day. This program, no it's lifestyle, is very flexible. You will need to log your food choices on an app, which is simple and easy to use. In addition, to Coach Ted keeping me accountable, he provides terrific tips. For example; great desserts to have while counting macros, that will help you succeed. I had one of the suggestions over the weekend and it was delicious! It will be on our weekly grocery list from now on. I am very happy to be working with Coach Ted. I am starting week 4. I like knowing what to expect and I look forward to our weekly phone calls, which he offers. I like the interaction and the personal accountability. Thank you, Coach! I really appreciate you! M~

As a busy health care professional, I wanted to improve my nutrition and fitness. Coach Ted's 12-week Macro Solution 1-on-1 Nutrition Coaching program was great.

His support and resources helped me track and adjust my macros effortlessly, while enjoying a variety of foods. Feeling better and stronger is the best reward!

Thank you Ted for being such an amazing coach. I was trying to lose fat and build muscle at the same time which i understand can be a little difficult. Ted helped me learn how to eat properly to fuel my body and give it what it needs to get the most out of my workouts. Before working with Ted i was super active but severely under eating. My workouts were not giving me the results I was looking for and my nutrition was the reason why. in 3 months I lost 12 LBs while building muscle and I can feel the difference in my day to day / workouts. Ted was very patient and personable. Always there when I had any questions. Before Ted I has just recently started tracking macros but was doing it all wrong.

I have been working with Coach Ted for four weeks now. I hope to lose about 10 pounds, and recomposition my body by the end of our 12 weeks together. I am seeing positive results so far! I caught on to tracking my macros very quickly, and Coach Ted has been helping me to stay consistent with my exercise routine. I appreciate his honest feedback, getting back to me in a timely manner, and his useful tips! I am excited to see how the next eight weeks go!

After gaining weight during the pandemic, I started working with Ted to try to reset my fitness and nutrition goals. After a year of failing to lose weight on my own, after I started working with Ted, the weight started coming off consistently with just a few tweaks to my eating, workout habits, and macro tracking. I have been able to lose 40 pounds this year! The best part is that I’ve been able to build up a strong intuition of how weight loss works, and how to achieve my goals without feeling hungry, or depriving myself of foods I like.

Ted helped me lose body fat while still eating the foods I love. Prior to my coaching I was afraid to eat several foods and felt very restricted yet I still couldn’t get rid of the body fat I wanted to lose. Now I feel like I am eating normal while still not putting on fat. I actually enjoy eating again.

So first of all, I lost 19.5 pounds in 12 weeks and 4 inches off my ribs/natural waist! All of my other measurements went down as well, and though it was quite (very!) challenging in the beginning, having Coach Ted in my corner was key to keeping me motivated. It's easy to see how much he genuinely cares about his clients, it comes through in all of the weekly feedbacks and how he makes himself so available for encouragement and advice. Looking back, I can see how the changes I have made weren't anything dramatic, and definitely not unconventional, but I really couldn't have made that initial transition without the help of Coach Ted. I look forward to many more milestones, and getting some more coaching in a month or two, but I feel that my relationship with food, and with myself as well, has so thoroughly changed for the better that I no longer need the coaching in the same way, I just look forward to sharing my progress and the achievement of my goals with the person who was essential to my success, Coach Ted.

I began my journey with Coach Ted at a time when things could not have been more challenging. It was the middle of a pandemic, and as a public health official I had almost no time for myself, not to mention an adult special needs child and an aging parent. Nevertheless, as a physician I could see the handwriting on the wall - rising blood pressure and subtle but persistent EKG changes. Reading Coach Ted's bio and seeing the materials he provided on his website I decided that despite so many past failures (even more poignant because I had lost a lot of weight years earlier) I decided to jump in. This simple act was life changing. First, if you have had past experiences where you have been shamed for falling off the wagon or messing up, or you have self shamed, this is the guy to see. His absolute and complete support is a MAJOR GAME CHANGER. Most of us who have been chronically overweight have some pretty mean voices in our heads. Coach Ted will help you get rid of them and he gives you great tools! Second, if your life is busy and unpredictable (whose isn't?) he can calmly walk you through how to ride out the bumps. Too often we want the weight off now, we want the issues stopped now, but it just isn't that easy. Like anything else, our relationship with fitness and food takes time, work and sometimes reconfiguring. Coach Ted taught me that - and with a kindness and compassion that made it feel safe to come clean when things didn't go well. Finally, he gives you tools to continue to use after your time with him is over. I'm down almost 25 pounds and I just turned 69. So all those false claims that you can't lose weight as you age are bogus. Having remained active, I'm better able to kickbox, walk miles with my dogs and now contemplate becoming a personal trainer as I continue to lose the additional weight to reach my goal. I will be forever grateful, and more importantly, I feel 100% comfortable returning if I get stuck knowing I will be supported and helped to reach my goals and not judged. Coach Ted is the real deal and you are in for a chance to make a permanent change working with him - he will be your support and friend on the journey. Thank you Coach Ted!!

Ted really helped me make sense of my nutritional plan. Keeping track of my macros was key to me losing body fat! His advice on various protein options (including collagen) really helped me meet my daily protein macros! Ted was super friendly and not judgmental at all when I had missteps (by no fault of his). Ted has given me the knowledge and skills needed to reach my goals! Now it is up to me to continue applying them consistently. Thanks Ted!

My main goal was to lose 15 lbs and jumpstart my exercise routine. I have reached my goal! Ted's response time is almost immediate. Whenever I needed an extra push, he would text me every day. The best thing about my experience is learning about macros and the accountability that comes with the program.

Ted is the DREAM HEALTH COACH. I am definitely not the dream client though; my work/life balance is chaotic. I did my best to at tracking Macros & recording measurements. Through his coaching platform, his commitment to me, my goals and diligent reminders, he helped me lose weight & INCREASE MY MUSCLE MASS!

My goal is to get my body fat down to 20% and so far Ted's program has helped me to see food differently through his MACRO program. I now realize that by tracking my daily food intake and understanding the food I eat will help me be successful in the long run. Overall, it helps me to be more intentional about what I eat. Also, Ted's check-ins keep me accountable and focused.

I didn’t have 40+ pounds to lose, or huge weight shifts, or 5 sizes dropped, but I can tell you that I learned how to better control my food intake, managed what I ate much more precisely and learned to not be afraid of food or carbs. I also learned that my food adversity towards carbs caused my own body to work against me, and it is taking me sometime to work through that, in order to become a better me, a me that understands better why my body does what it does.. Having coach Ted assist me and being there with explanations and tweaking things for me as we went through the program definitely helped me.

My goal is to get rid of belly fat and increase muscle tone. So far I have reduced belly fat and increased muscle definition a bit.

I really like the progress feedback via video, it definitely makes it more personal. Thank you.

Deciding to work with Ted and The Thrive method was exactly what I needed! Ted was very patient with me and taught me a much better way to approach weight loss, health, and most of all mindset. Instead of consistently reducing my calories and macros, he did the OPPOSITE and increased my intake to a level I had never dared to eat before and guess what...It WORKED when nothing else would. I had been spinning my wheels without making any real progress until I met Ted and implemented his plan. I did not have to give up my favorite foods, instead I learned to incorporate them into my plan. No food groups are off limits and I am rarely hungry. My clothes fit better and I just feel better in general. Lastly, Ted is an amazing coach. He provides encouragement without being fake and never judges you for slip ups or mistakes. Feel confident about working with Ted, you will not find a better coach. Thanks for everything.

After Covid, like many people my weight had gone up. I was having a challenging time losing the 10 pounds of Covid weight that I had acquired. Ted helped me with my food tracking and provided nutritional & exercise tips. He also customized the plan considering I am now 46 and took in consideration age related changes that could be happening. Ted is positive, checked in with me regularly and provided that extra that has really helped me get to a better weight and improve my overall health. I would highly recommended Ted & best of luck in your upcoming health journey!

I have been holding onto this weight for years. Then Covid-19 called upon us, and I began working remotely as a nurse from home. The pounds continued to creep up from the long hours of continuous sitting and constantly munching all day long. Then to get off work late, eat dinner and go to bed. Only to get up and start over again the next day. At first after reading all the paperwork outlined and Macros for the day I said, “I don’t know if I can do this.” Then I thought, “no girl, you are going to do this.” So thus, Macros nutritional eating and exercise began. My goals were to gain knowledge and implement correct eating to lose weight, improve my overall health, have more energy, and decrease stress. Coach Ted gives me the time, attention, and suggestions. We openly discuss any concerns I may have, or he may see. He gives me his expertise, advice and recommendations and I find them to be very positive and encouraging. I feel empowered and accept the responsibility as I implemented and progress in this journey to a healthier me. I like being able to communicate with emails, weekly virtual coaching calls, and the sent emails from coach with helpful and inspiring information. Words can’t express the gratitude I feel for Coach Ted with his knowledge and expertise in guiding me on this journey.

I found Ted when I was 6 months postpartum and stuck at a weight despite working out. Ted responded to me quickly and even took time out of his own vacation to help me! Not only do I feel like I'm not really dieting, but I'm often shocked at how large my portions are! Also, I almost immediately got below the weight I was stuck at and am well on my way to losing all the baby weight! So grateful I found him!!

Working with coach Ted was by far the best decision I have ever made. I have struggled for many years working out endlessly and trying so many different meal plans and diets but nothing ever gave me the results I was looking for. I have been working with Ted for about 12 weeks and I have lost about 25 pounds. He really has a plan that sets you up for success and I’ll tell you seeing the physical results week after week is so motivating. Aside from the physical aspect which is awesome, I cannot believe how much energy I have now and I just feel my confidence building from week to week. Work with Ted, follow the plan and I promise you will not regret it!

My husband had been a yo-yo dieter his entire adult life, and like so many others, he always believed that carbs were the enemy. I had heard that counting macros was the way to go and the most sustainable method of weight loss and maintenance, so I started searching for before and after photos of people who track macros. I stumbled across Ted’s website and was impressed with the testimonials seen on his website. I encouraged my husband to contact Ted. Best decision ever! Not only is my husband down 17 pounds so far, but I decided to give it a go as well. I’ve always eaten lots of carbs, but never balanced my diet with the right amount of protein and fat. I’ve never been a heavy person, but I was what I called “skinny fat”. As I approached 40, I was noticing the scale creeping up and decided I wanted to lose a good 12 pounds to lean up and get to my goal weight. Since hiring Ted, I’ve started working out 5-6 times a week, I feel strong and fit, and I have a good sense of what my body now needs to feel and look my best. I am super happy with the progress I’ve made over the last 3 months! It’s been awesome having Ted keep me accountable, answer questions, encourage me, and teach me what I need to know about nutrition and fueling my body adequately. I don’t feel like I’m deprived of eating my favorite treats, and I’m still making progress. I hit that 12 pound goal recently and couldn’t be happier. And now I get to write my own testimonial. :) Thanks, Ted!

He is very responsive, encouraging and easy to talk to when working with him. He has been able to show me how to reach my goals without cutting any food groups out! He is super motivating and compassionate, I love working with him!! Working with Ted Is helping me reach my goals at healthy and sustainable way! Thank you Ted!

I would like to start off by saying I am very happy that I found Ted. My goal was to lose weight because I was at 214 when I started, and now I just hit 179 almost at my goal!!!! Ted helped me get my eating in control through macros, which at first was tuff, however now I'm very happy with my results. I liked that Ted was very patient with me, also that he is very experienced in helping people with their diet issues. I would very much recommend you give him a try because you won't regret it if you are willing to put in the work.

Macros works for me! I learned more about the nutrition importance when having a balanced macro lifestyle. I love it. I also now understand the importance of macros with my energy and sleep. Ted helped me with understanding all of this, and always answered any questions or concerns along with keeping patient witht he process. I was reminded changes aren't only on the scale, take pictures and over time you will see changes in inches lost and body composition. I am super excited that i lost eight pounds, and will continue to lose sticking with this lifestyle. Thanks Ted, so happy with the results.

After ordering countless diet books and trying more diets than I can keep track of, I realized that my endless cycles of yo-yo dieting would never end unless I made a change I could sustain. I was always searching for a diet that promised fast weight loss, not sustainable weight loss. I had lost (and re-gained) weight several times in my life and it was always because the plans that I was following were too restrictive and completely unsustainable. One afternoon I came across Coach Ted’s website and was skeptical by the lack of gimmicks in his plan. It seemed a little too reasonable compared to all of the diets I had tried in the past. I decided to take a chance and signed up for personalized coaching that afternoon. I have been working with Coach Ted for almost 12 weeks now and am down 17 pounds! I was so surprised with how much I was allowed to eat and that no food are off limits. My initial goal was solely weight loss, but I have gained so much more from working with Coach Ted! His plan has taught me how to be a more mindful and intuitive eater. He has also helped me shift my focus away from the scale. Most importantly, I feel more balanced and in control of my diet than I have ever felt before! Coach Ted is always available and willing to help in any way to help you reach your goals. I am going to continue working with Coach Ted until I reach my goal weight. Signing up for coaching has been one of the best decisions I have made and I couldn’t be more thankful for all of the positive changes that have come from this experience! I finally feel that I am on the path to sustainable weight loss and it is all thanks to Coach Ted and his plan.

"Being a sleep deprived new mom with a 4 month old and working a full time job with back to back meetings, I did not think losing weight would be possible for me. I worked with Ted for 12 weeks and explained to him I wasn't able to work out as much as my plate was already too full at the moment. Ted was very flexible and put together a plan for me that worked for me. My main concern was to not lose my milk production for my baby but also wanted to make sure I lost weight. Not only did his nutrition plan work, but I also lost 15 lbs total without being able to work out as much with my busy schedule! I highly recommend working with Ted!"

At 8 months postpartum in the midst of a pandemic, I was at the heaviest weight I had ever been in my life. I needed to do something that was sustainable and felt like counting macros was the answer. I was overwhelmed by it though, which was holding me back. I reached out to Ted and I am so happy I did. After my 12 week plan with him, I was down around 24 lbs and sky high on confidence. He made it less intimidating and has set me up for future success. I have a ways to go but I know I will get there with what I have learned from working with Ted. Thanks again Ted!

I just want to Thank you for the wonderful program and for the guidance this past 8 weeks! Although I believe in the program there is also a part of me that that doubted in the beginning how can i lose weight eating this much?! And I think my progress photo shows a lot and has prove me wrong! The balance of lifting weights and macro counting has definitely improved my physique and kept my sanity and I couldn't be any happier! Like what I said in the past I have found my happy balance and I would like to thank you again for teaching me that I don't have to limit my food choices to improve myself! Balance is key! Again, Thank you!

Healthier Balanced Eating and weight loss were my goal. Ted is knowlegeable and informative, he offers gentle and kind support and direction. I particularly enjoyed the 1:1 check ins as it was a great opportunity to experience his services in person. He's a great guy!

Thank you Ted for being such an amazing coach. I was trying to lose fat and build muscle at the same time which i understand can be a little difficult. Ted helped me learn how to eat properly to fuel my body and give it what it needs to get the most out of my workouts. Before working with Ted i was super active but severely under eating. My workouts were not giving me the results I was looking for and my nutrition was the reason why. in 3 months I lost 12 LBs while building muscle and I can feel the difference in my day to day / workouts. Ted was very patient and personable. Always there when I had any questions. Before Ted I has just recently started tracking macros but was doing it all wrong.

I have been working with Coach Ted for four weeks now. I hope to lose about 10 pounds, and recomposition my body by the end of our 12 weeks together. I am seeing positive results so far! I caught on to tracking my macros very quickly, and Coach Ted has been helping me to stay consistent with my exercise routine. I appreciate his honest feedback, getting back to me in a timely manner, and his useful tips! I am excited to see how the next eight weeks go!

After gaining weight during the pandemic, I started working with Ted to try to reset my fitness and nutrition goals. After a year of failing to lose weight on my own, after I started working with Ted, the weight started coming off consistently with just a few tweaks to my eating, workout habits, and macro tracking. I have been able to lose 40 pounds this year! The best part is that I’ve been able to build up a strong intuition of how weight loss works, and how to achieve my goals without feeling hungry, or depriving myself of foods I like.

Ted helped me lose body fat while still eating the foods I love. Prior to my coaching I was afraid to eat several foods and felt very restricted yet I still couldn’t get rid of the body fat I wanted to lose. Now I feel like I am eating normal while still not putting on fat. I actually enjoy eating again.

I have really enjoyed working with Coach Ted and I've learned so much. Through the program I have always felt supported, encouraged and never deprived. The consistency and accountability from Coach Ted and this program have helped me be successful when so many other programs have not!

So first of all, I lost 19.5 pounds in 12 weeks and 4 inches off my ribs/natural waist! All of my other measurements went down as well, and though it was quite (very!) challenging in the beginning, having Coach Ted in my corner was key to keeping me motivated. It's easy to see how much he genuinely cares about his clients, it comes through in all of the weekly feedbacks and how he makes himself so available for encouragement and advice. Looking back, I can see how the changes I have made weren't anything dramatic, and definitely not unconventional, but I really couldn't have made that initial transition without the help of Coach Ted. I look forward to many more milestones, and getting some more coaching in a month or two, but I feel that my relationship with food, and with myself as well, has so thoroughly changed for the better that I no longer need the coaching in the same way, I just look forward to sharing my progress and the achievement of my goals with the person who was essential to my success, Coach Ted.

I began my journey with Coach Ted at a time when things could not have been more challenging. It was the middle of a pandemic, and as a public health official I had almost no time for myself, not to mention an adult special needs child and an aging parent. Nevertheless, as a physician I could see the handwriting on the wall - rising blood pressure and subtle but persistent EKG changes. Reading Coach Ted's bio and seeing the materials he provided on his website I decided that despite so many past failures (even more poignant because I had lost a lot of weight years earlier) I decided to jump in. This simple act was life changing. First, if you have had past experiences where you have been shamed for falling off the wagon or messing up, or you have self shamed, this is the guy to see. His absolute and complete support is a MAJOR GAME CHANGER. Most of us who have been chronically overweight have some pretty mean voices in our heads. Coach Ted will help you get rid of them and he gives you great tools! Second, if your life is busy and unpredictable (whose isn't?) he can calmly walk you through how to ride out the bumps. Too often we want the weight off now, we want the issues stopped now, but it just isn't that easy. Like anything else, our relationship with fitness and food takes time, work and sometimes reconfiguring. Coach Ted taught me that - and with a kindness and compassion that made it feel safe to come clean when things didn't go well. Finally, he gives you tools to continue to use after your time with him is over. I'm down almost 25 pounds and I just turned 69. So all those false claims that you can't lose weight as you age are bogus. Having remained active, I'm better able to kickbox, walk miles with my dogs and now contemplate becoming a personal trainer as I continue to lose the additional weight to reach my goal. I will be forever grateful, and more importantly, I feel 100% comfortable returning if I get stuck knowing I will be supported and helped to reach my goals and not judged. Coach Ted is the real deal and you are in for a chance to make a permanent change working with him - he will be your support and friend on the journey. Thank you Coach Ted!!

Ted really helped me make sense of my nutritional plan. Keeping track of my macros was key to me losing body fat! His advice on various protein options (including collagen) really helped me meet my daily protein macros! Ted was super friendly and not judgmental at all when I had missteps (by no fault of his). Ted has given me the knowledge and skills needed to reach my goals! Now it is up to me to continue applying them consistently. Thanks Ted!

My main goal was to lose 15 lbs and jumpstart my exercise routine. I have reached my goal! Ted's response time is almost immediate. Whenever I needed an extra push, he would text me every day. The best thing about my experience is learning about macros and the accountability that comes with the program.

Ted is the DREAM HEALTH COACH. I am definitely not the dream client though; my work/life balance is chaotic. I did my best to at tracking Macros & recording measurements. Through his coaching platform, his commitment to me, my goals and diligent reminders, he helped me lose weight & INCREASE MY MUSCLE MASS!

My goal is to get my body fat down to 20% and so far Ted's program has helped me to see food differently through his MACRO program. I now realize that by tracking my daily food intake and understanding the food I eat will help me be successful in the long run. Overall, it helps me to be more intentional about what I eat. Also, Ted's check-ins keep me accountable and focused.

I didn’t have 40+ pounds to lose, or huge weight shifts, or 5 sizes dropped, but I can tell you that I learned how to better control my food intake, managed what I ate much more precisely and learned to not be afraid of food or carbs. I also learned that my food adversity towards carbs caused my own body to work against me, and it is taking me sometime to work through that, in order to become a better me, a me that understands better why my body does what it does.. Having coach Ted assist me and being there with explanations and tweaking things for me as we went through the program definitely helped me.

My goal is to get rid of belly fat and increase muscle tone. So far I have reduced belly fat and increased muscle definition a bit. Coach Ted, you have been an amazing coach, guiding me through the process and answering very question in a timely manner. Very accessible as well. I really like the progress feedback via video, it definitely makes it more personal. Thank you.

Deciding to work with Ted and The Thrive method was exactly what I needed! Ted was very patient with me and taught me a much better way to approach weight loss, health, and most of all mindset. Instead of consistently reducing my calories and macros, he did the OPPOSITE and increased my intake to a level I had never dared to eat before and guess what...It WORKED when nothing else would. I had been spinning my wheels without making any real progress until I met Ted and implemented his plan. I did not have to give up my favorite foods, instead I learned to incorporate them into my plan. No food groups are off limits and I am rarely hungry. My clothes fit better and I just feel better in general. Lastly, Ted is an amazing coach. He provides encouragement without being fake and never judges you for slip ups or mistakes. Feel confident about working with Ted, you will not find a better coach. Thanks for everything.

After Covid, like many people my weight had gone up. I was having a challenging time losing the 10 pounds of Covid weight that I had acquired. Ted helped me with my food tracking and provided nutritional & exercise tips. He also customized the plan considering I am now 46 and took in consideration age related changes that could be happening. Ted is positive, checked in with me regularly and provided that extra that has really helped me get to a better weight and improve my overall health. I would highly recommended Ted & best of luck in your upcoming health journey!

I have been holding onto this weight for years. Then Covid-19 called upon us, and I began working remotely as a nurse from home. The pounds continued to creep up from the long hours of continuous sitting and constantly munching all day long. Then to get off work late, eat dinner and go to bed. Only to get up and start over again the next day. At first after reading all the paperwork outlined and Macros for the day I said, “I don’t know if I can do this.” Then I thought, “no girl, you are going to do this.” So thus, Macros nutritional eating and exercise began. My goals were to gain knowledge and implement correct eating to lose weight, improve my overall health, have more energy, and decrease stress. Coach Ted gives me the time, attention, and suggestions. We openly discuss any concerns I may have, or he may see. He gives me his expertise, advice and recommendations and I find them to be very positive and encouraging. I feel empowered and accept the responsibility as I implemented and progress in this journey to a healthier me. I like being able to communicate with emails, weekly virtual coaching calls, and the sent emails from coach with helpful and inspiring information. Words can’t express the gratitude I feel for Coach Ted with his knowledge and expertise in guiding me on this journey.

I found Ted when I was 6 months postpartum and stuck at a weight despite working out. Ted responded to me quickly and even took time out of his own vacation to help me! Not only do I feel like I'm not really dieting, but I'm often shocked at how large my portions are! Also, I almost immediately got below the weight I was stuck at and am well on my way to losing all the baby weight! So grateful I found him!!

Working with coach Ted was by far the best decision I have ever made. I have struggled for many years working out endlessly and trying so many different meal plans and diets but nothing ever gave me the results I was looking for. I have been working with Ted for about 12 weeks and I have lost about 25 pounds. He really has a plan that sets you up for success and I’ll tell you seeing the physical results week after week is so motivating. Aside from the physical aspect which is awesome, I cannot believe how much energy I have now and I just feel my confidence building from week to week. Work with Ted, follow the plan and I promise you will not regret it!

My husband had been a yo-yo dieter his entire adult life, and like so many others, he always believed that carbs were the enemy. I had heard that counting macros was the way to go and the most sustainable method of weight loss and maintenance, so I started searching for before and after photos of people who track macros. I stumbled across Ted’s website and was impressed with the testimonials seen on his website. I encouraged my husband to contact Ted. Best decision ever! Not only is my husband down 17 pounds so far, but I decided to give it a go as well. I’ve always eaten lots of carbs, but never balanced my diet with the right amount of protein and fat. I’ve never been a heavy person, but I was what I called “skinny fat”. As I approached 40, I was noticing the scale creeping up and decided I wanted to lose a good 12 pounds to lean up and get to my goal weight. Since hiring Ted, I’ve started working out 5-6 times a week, I feel strong and fit, and I have a good sense of what my body now needs to feel and look my best. I am super happy with the progress I’ve made over the last 3 months! It’s been awesome having Ted keep me accountable, answer questions, encourage me, and teach me what I need to know about nutrition and fueling my body adequately. I don’t feel like I’m deprived of eating my favorite treats, and I’m still making progress. I hit that 12 pound goal recently and couldn’t be happier. And now I get to write my own testimonial. :) Thanks, Ted!

Ted has been an amazing mentor for me! Having my first child, he’s really helped me progress and understand the importance of fuelling my body with the right amount of macronutrients. He is very responsive, encouraging and easy to talk to when working with him. He has been able to show me how to reach my goals without cutting any food groups out! He is super motivating and compassionate, I love working with him!! Working with Ted Is helping me reach my goals at healthy and sustainable way! Thank you Ted!

I would like to start off by saying I am very happy that I found Ted. My goal was to lose weight because I was at 214 when I started, and now I just hit 179 almost at my goal!!!! Ted helped me get my eating in control through macros, which at first was tuff, however now I'm very happy with my results. I liked that Ted was very patient with me, also that he is very experienced in helping people with their diet issues. I would very much recommend you give him a try because you won't regret it if you are willing to put in the work.

Macros works for me! I learned more about the nutrition importance when having a balanced macro lifestyle. I love it. I also now understand the importance of macros with my energy and sleep. Ted helped me with understanding all of this, and always answered any questions or concerns along with keeping patient witht he process. I was reminded changes aren't only on the scale, take pictures and over time you will see changes in inches lost and body composition. I am super excited that i lost eight pounds, and will continue to lose sticking with this lifestyle. Thanks Ted, so happy with the results.

After ordering countless diet books and trying more diets than I can keep track of, I realized that my endless cycles of yo-yo dieting would never end unless I made a change I could sustain. I was always searching for a diet that promised fast weight loss, not sustainable weight loss. I had lost (and re-gained) weight several times in my life and it was always because the plans that I was following were too restrictive and completely unsustainable. One afternoon I came across Coach Ted’s website and was skeptical by the lack of gimmicks in his plan. It seemed a little too reasonable compared to all of the diets I had tried in the past. I decided to take a chance and signed up for personalized coaching that afternoon. I have been working with Coach Ted for almost 12 weeks now and am down 17 pounds! I was so surprised with how much I was allowed to eat and that no food are off limits. My initial goal was solely weight loss, but I have gained so much more from working with Coach Ted! His plan has taught me how to be a more mindful and intuitive eater. He has also helped me shift my focus away from the scale. Most importantly, I feel more balanced and in control of my diet than I have ever felt before! Coach Ted is always available and willing to help in any way to help you reach your goals. I am going to continue working with Coach Ted until I reach my goal weight. Signing up for coaching has been one of the best decisions I have made and I couldn’t be more thankful for all of the positive changes that have come from this experience! I finally feel that I am on the path to sustainable weight loss and it is all thanks to Coach Ted and his plan.

"Being a sleep deprived new mom with a 4 month old and working a full time job with back to back meetings, I did not think losing weight would be possible for me. I worked with Ted for 12 weeks and explained to him I wasn't able to work out as much as my plate was already too full at the moment. Ted was very flexible and put together a plan for me that worked for me. My main concern was to not lose my milk production for my baby but also wanted to make sure I lost weight. Not only did his nutrition plan work, but I also lost 15 lbs total without being able to work out as much with my busy schedule! I highly recommend working with Ted!"

At 8 months postpartum in the midst of a pandemic, I was at the heaviest weight I had ever been in my life. I needed to do something that was sustainable and felt like counting macros was the answer. I was overwhelmed by it though, which was holding me back. I reached out to Ted and I am so happy I did. After my 12 week plan with him, I was down around 24 lbs and sky high on confidence. He made it less intimidating and has set me up for future success. I have a ways to go but I know I will get there with what I have learned from working with Ted. Thanks again Ted!

I just want to Thank you for the wonderful program and for the guidance this past 8 weeks! Although I believe in the program there is also a part of me that that doubted in the beginning how can i lose weight eating this much?! And I think my progress photo shows a lot and has prove me wrong! The balance of lifting weights and macro counting has definitely improved my physique and kept my sanity and I couldn't be any happier! Like what I said in the past I have found my happy balance and I would like to thank you again for teaching me that I don't have to limit my food choices to improve myself! Balance is key! Again, Thank you!

I have worked with Ted for two months. I am eating 500 calories more than, originally when i begin trying to grow. I have made impressive improvements. Scales haven't changed much, but lose of fat has increased. I highly recommend Ted to anyone looking for some guidance on getting into better physical condition. He's great at communicating and also he's an amazing coach.
