Person of Inspiration
The staff at Back on Track would like to commend and congratulate a fabulous individual who is mindful, willful and soulful: Erika Hein. Erika began the program last March 2012 and successfully lost 45 lbs within 5 months. After taking a diet hiatus, like so many do, Erika returned to Back on Track still down 28 pounds from her original weight. With determination and perseverance Erika began the second leg of her journey. It was not an easy go. She pushed through slow initial losses and has now achieved a weight she has not seen in over 25 years. Within 10 pounds of her goal and 75lbs already lost, soon to be married, and with a clean bill of health she continues to inspire us as coaches, friends, and great admirers.
We’re happy to announce that we have partnered with Fit Metabolism, based out of Calgary, AB, for our new weight loss and lifestyle program.
The FitMethod is all about healthy, sustainable weight loss. No starvation…no gimmicks…no counting calories. We are staffed with exceptionally knowledgeable people and scientifically based system customized to your body.Metabolism Testing – Not ordinary metabolism testing, this gold-standard assessment determines not only your resting metabolic rate, but just how efficient your metabolism is as well. It’s this all-important number that gives us a foundation to build your customized weight loss food plan.
FitFood & Cardio Fat Loss Program – Using the results of the metabolic testing, we create a workable weight loss food plan based on your lifestyle and social needs. This is not about sacrifice or depriving yourself. This is a natural progression from your current diet to a healthier one using the foods you love to eat. On the menu… three meals a day, plus up to three snacks. Suffice it to say… you won’t go hungry! In addition, you’ll have your own at-home, cardiovascular weight loss exercise plan to maximize your results.
Weight Loss Coaching – Your health coach is here for so much more than accountability. Sure, that’s part of the process, but we truly get excited when we see you reaching your goals. You’ll quickly find out that your coach is a trusted and knowledgeable friend who is here to provide compassion and support for your journey and beyond.
Biological Age Assessment – Did you know that poor fitness is the number-one predictor of mortality? What’s more, your biological age and your chronological age usually don’t match. For example, while your body might be 42 years old, your biological factors (weight, activity level, etc.) could actually make you look, feel and behave as if you’re 59. This biological age assessment helps us determine just how old you really are, so we can help you counteract the effects of premature aging.

After much research, scientists have identified the group of essential fatty acids that was lacking in North American nutrition: Omega 3. Some of the health problems that have been directly linked to Omega 3 deficiencies are Crohn’s disease, diabetes, cancer, allergies, depression, aging, PMS, dry skin and many more.
Omega 3 consumption can help with many things in our life and this is why Omega 3 is now included in the Ideal Protein diet plan. This is a welcome change for the program as it can help with weight problems. Back on Track with Barb is now carrying Omega 3 and will be offered to you on your next visit.
If you have any questions about Omega 3 please feel free to ask us about it next time you’re in.
