"I wanted to thank you and the entire staff at Slenderzone for the incredible food and service. I don't recall eating so well while losing weight. I ate things that I avoided in the past thinking I would like it or prepared it incorrectly. The desserts deserve a standing ovation. Chef Sharon you let me know that I should not be hungry and you worked with me until it all balanced out. You also let me know that I would be able to eye the portions going forward so I did pay very close attention to all the details. This was a great investment to living a healthier lifestyle. Again, this was such a wonderful experience and I have learned so much. My blueberry pancakes are calling, so I have to go for now."
Thank you!

You were a huge part of my success!
Here are some pictures to kvell over. :) I'll recommend you to anyone who ever needs to lose weight, and you can be sure that if I slip and need a week or two of rehab, I'll be calling you!!! C.
It's been about 4 1/2 months since I started your slender zone plan and I have surpassed my original goal weight by 23 pounds and 3 months ahead of schedule. I have now lost a total of 61lbs. My blood pressure is down to 110 / 65 and cholesterol down from 230 to188 and I feel great!!. Although we have spoken many times on the phone and your guidance has been great, we have never met, so I thought you would get a kick out of these before and after photos.
Sharon, after years of yoyo diets, your program of wonderful fresh foods has taught me how to eat and portion control, and it has truly changed my life! I would tell anybody (and I have) considering a diet that they can live by, that your plan with real fresh food and commitment to 30 minutes a day of exercise is a total no brainer and worth ever penny!! Thanks for the new start, I am in the slender zone! Brian Testo
“I had been trying to lose weight for years, yet the only thing that happened was that I put on more. It was disturbing, frustrating, and embarrassing. Finally, I started a workout schedule and modified my diet, and dropped about 35 pounds, but then reached a plateau that I could not break. Fortunately, I met Chef Sharon at SlenderZone. I was very skeptical, because I thought I was already doing everything right, plus I never really believed in commercial “diets�. But… it worked. I lost an average of 3 pounds per week, and after losing 55 pounds, I had returned to my college weight. It has been over three months now, and with the tools I have gained from Chef Sharon’s SlenderZone, the battle to keep pounds off has been relatively easy. I would not hesitate to try this service, it really worked for me.
Thank You!

Sept 7th will be my 1 year anniversary for losing 30 lbs. Twenty-four pounds in the first month alone, and the remaining weight thereafter! I wish I had taken photos before, because you would really not believe the photos now! My eating habits have changed dramatically! By limiting my portions, I can now, within reason, just about eat most foods; but usually stay away from the well known trouble makers. I work out at least 5 times a week.
Thanks for everything.

I'd be honored to mention that I'm 69 years old. My thanks to you for helping me get on track and feeling so good. I do feel in control!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your fabulous group!

Thank you so much for making my time with you so successful. It is truly a life's privilege to have ones food cooked and delivered!
Thanks,

I wanted to thank you so much for the delicious five days of food. I'm almost done eating it. and I don't think I've ever eaten so well or felt so healthy in my life. everything was just so yummy, especially your veggie potsickers and soy cakes. all your fresh veggies, yummmm.
I've only been a vegetarian for a little over a year and it's a challenge at times to find/prepare (I really hate to cook) foods that meet all the taste and nutritional requirements. I pretty much live on nuts and berries. thank you so much, for the banquet of flavors and textures and tastes. wish I could hire you guys for life.
I had bought this gift for my grown daughter who never used it.....it was about to expire so I ordered for myself.
I have a family I have to feed so it is not practical for me to keep on going with it. but I will keep you in mind for any future time that i'm feeling a need to just be about me, or suggest to anyone I know that might be interested. really.
thank you again, I really am sad to be going.
Sincerely,
Claire Acerno
I am a 46 year old woman, who has struggled to control my weight for a lifetime, having been a chubby teenager. I have lost a significant amount of weight a few times in my life and that experience has given me perspective on both extremes, being overweight AND skinny. I live in Los Angeles but frequently travel for my work as an accountant for movie production. Basically, coming home from my last job, I was again, gorilla size. I enrolled in a boot camp which I participated in for two months, with no results, in fact, I believe I gained weight because my eating was out of control. I have done all the diets on the market but felt no motivation to hook onto any of them. I knew that food delivery was available in Los Angeles so one Friday, made the decision to sign up and start. I believe I was fairly desperate in that moment because I thought, I can't be like this anymore and I can't make a significant change by myself.
So I spoke to Chef Sharon and she said, eat my food and you will lose the weight. I didn't even ask her what the calorie content was going to be, I just said, sign me up and start sending me food tomorrow.
So the first day, Saturday, I went to the Hollywood Bowl in the evening for a concert, and walking to the car, I just felt so comfortable, so at ease, so peaceful, so HAPPY, and I told my friends, listen, the food dialogue is just gone from my head completely, just on the first day, I wasn't either beating myself up about what I ate, or worrying about what I was going to eat next or thinking about what I shouldn't eat, it was just quiet on the whole food subject, and this was remarkable, obviously, I hadn't lost any weight on the first day but I became calm about food, and this was half the battle.
As the first month ended, I lost 10 lbs, which I knew from my personal dieting experience, was an attainable goal, I was still going to boot camp, then another 10 lbs and another 10 lbs, for each of the next three months. Rolling into December, I renewed for a fourth month and I knew I was going to take it easy on myself and enjoy a few holiday parties here and there, so I lost 5 lbs. At the end of four months, I told Chef Sharon that I felt I could continue on my own, being inspired by her menu plan, portion size and salad combinations that had carried me to this successful point.
The diet was incredibly easy, I never worried or stressed out, the time just passed and the scale continued to go down. This is a plan that I would recommend to ANYONE. I fully intend to keep it as a tool in my life that I will return to now and then, when I feel that I am getting too distracted by the food chatter in my head and when I need to regain food peace.
So continuing to date, the month of January has passed and I have lost an additional 5 lbs, bringing my total weight loss to 40 lbs, which was entirely made possible by Chef Sharon and her delicious, nutritious food. And I never felt deprived or unsatisfied, it was so easy this time.
THANK YOU CHEF SHARON and I will certainly be back when I need your future assistance.

Just a little update. I've been on the program since 8/12/09 and have lost 32 Pounds. This is wonderful considering I was in Europe 3 1/2 weeks during this time. I feel 1000% better than I have in 20 years and couldn't be more pleased with my progress. Now that I am in the routine, it's very simple...Food, water and exercise. When I eat out, which is often, I follow your guidelines and it's working very well.
I'll keep you informed.
Warmest regards,
Richard A Carieri
Good Morning! I lost 5 more pounds this weekend!!!!!!!!! That¹s 9 total, and I¹ll let you know the 3 week total on Wednesday. Hallelujah, Wahoo, Yahoo, Rebel Yell & can you hear my excitement from there?!!! I could walk by any food today and say no thank you! Motivation is a powerful thing!

Thanks to you and your staff I have actually been able to manage my weight for the first time. With the holidays here – I have also managed to make better choices when I am out – better judgment regarding fresh or processed (ugh!), sugar has not been a problem, cravings have not been an issue as you PROMISED and binging is a thing of my past. I feel absolutely great – exercising, walking – just joined a cardio ballroom group – yes – my life is changing with minimal effort and no dieting and I am enjoying my new shape! Thank you thank you thank you. Wishing you and your staff a happy holiday season and a prosperous 2008!

I've felt great yesterday and today. I don't know who made the Salisbury steak with gravy and mushrooms but that was the best ever. I want that every time it's served!!! 7 pounds in 7 days - what an exciting beginning, it's been a great jumpstart! Thanks again for everything!

I love the food. It's been fun opening my door and finding my bag and seeing what exciting meals I'm going to have for the day. The food is delicious and my first week I lost 7.5 pounds. Amazing! I've never lost that much weight the first week on any weight loss program. I was not hungry and I didn't feel deprived. I felt the opposite. I feel like I am being pampered every day. I am so fortunate that I found SlenderZone. I never thought losing weight could be so much fun. I love the taco salad, turkey chili, grilled eggplant, chipotle shrimp, the frittata with feta (anything with feta), the b-b-q pork ribs and the spinach salads with bacon bits and hard boiled egg crumbles. Those have been my favorites but everything has been delicious.

I want to thank you again for your very effective meal program. As you promised, the food is delicious. I've lost a surprising amount of weight in a short period of time. I especially appreciate the patience with which you've answered all my questions and made each meal so customized to my preferences.
I'm glad I found you,

I cannot thank you enough for the delicious food and your program to eating healthy and staying fit. I am looking forward to the continued service and love, love, love the food! I love your cheesecakes and puddings! I am losing weight slowly right now, but I am definitely feeling the effects of “detoxing my system� and it is becoming easier and easier to avoid the workplace's "Evil Closet" of junk food.

I am very much enjoying your food program. The food is delicious. The creative preparation of proteins, fruits, and vegetables is a constant delight. I appreciate the conscience effort not include much salt and the absence of meat in the meals. I am losing weight and more important feel great! I DO NOT MISS the sugar that was previously in my diet. You are right! Sugar is evil! I plan to continue with your program because of my improved health while eating your fabulous meals.
Thank you for a new me,

I have just completed 2 weeks of your program. During this time I followed the program to the letter. I am pleased to report that I lost 20 pounds and my blood pressure significantly reduced from 145/85 to 136/78. I was wheezing after climbing stairs and even while getting dressed. That has not occurred since the first week. My clothes are much looser and have much more energy. I have no problem with the food and I find I am never hungry. I have a long way to go, but I do believe that your program is teaching me what and how to eat so I am sticking with it.
Thank You,

Chef Sharon’s creations are delicious and I have seen the most amazing results in as little as 2 weeks! I look forward to getting my prepared meals because it’s something new every day and I don’t have to bother with preparing them myself which saves me so much time from shopping at the grocery store to preparing lunch for the office. It’s just so easy. My food is always at my door step on time, every day. I can’t speak enough about how great the food is (my favorites are too many too list, but most notably, the chili, pork loin, sautéed mushrooms, and the no-sugar, no fat salad dressings!) and how simple it is to take off a few extra pounds. I recommend the service to anyone who’s looking to shed a couple pounds to many. You will see the results!
Gratefully yours,

Thank you for helping me take those pesky 10 pounds off with your most delicious food! I do not hesitate to tell everyone about you and your delivery service. You make losing weight a delicious experience!

Just wanted to say thank you for the great service you provide. I am delighted with the freshness of the food and the preparation. I have lost 10 pounds since I started and couldn't be happier. Thank you for helping me get through the diet rut I was in.

"Congrats on being able to do what no other weight loss program has been able to do for me. (And believe me I have tried them all!) For the past five years I have been increasingly gaining weight and no weight loss program seemed to stop this. When I met with you, you told me I would lose between 2-4 pounds a week and I wouldn't have cravings and I wouldn't go hungry. I told you that there was no way I would lose so much weight per week and had visions of starvation and cravings for my favorite foods. Well, did you prove me wrong! Everything you said came true. I have lost 30 pounds to date and feel great."
Thank you so much.

Len and I finished our first week with a loss of 5 and 4 pounds respectively. We really enjoyed the first week of food. My favorite was the desserts (of course!) and the chili. Wonderful entrees.
Thanks so much.

I have been meaning to write you a proper letter, but as I mentioned I moved and have been distracted and adjusting. I just finished your chicken curry for lunch and decided I could put this off no longer: YOUR FOOD IS SIMPLY AMAZING.
I have been on every imaginable diet: Weight Watchers, Atkins, even the weird and smelly cabbage soup diet. I have tried the Delivery Zone diet on which I lost only two pounds in an entire month. By the time the month was done not only was I starving, but I was so sick of the food I couldn’t bare to eat it and was giving it away to my co-workers. I have tasted and seen Diet Designs food- my boss was on it and I was not impressed. Nor did she lose much weight.
By contrast your food is not only the best and most effective diet food I have ever eaten, it is also simply some of the best FOOD PERIOD that I have ever eaten. My husband looks covetously at my meals. I have given him tastes here and there and he is blown away.
Even if I didn’t need to lose one more pound, I would still want to eat your food. And as I said I have lost 20 pounds. I believe I have been able to do to because your food is so delicious and satisfying there is no need to cheat. Cheating is unnecessary on your program because I am not hungry and I don’t feel deprived. Every meal is a treat.
Also, I wanted to say that every time I have called over there your staff has been wonderful. Sorry that I sometimes forget to put my delivery bags out, I will work on being better about that.
I hope that you write a cook book, or teach some cooking classes because I think there would be a lot more healthy trim people out there if you were able to take your culinary genius out into a broader audience.
In the meantime, thank you for being so great at what you do.
Sincerely,

“THE FOOD IS FANTASTIC!! Where do you get your ideas? After almost 40 days of food delivery, it is fantastic that you continue to introduce new meals. That variety is great. I have lost 15 pounds to date.�

I have been following your plan for the past 10 weeks and feel absolutely great!!! I have lost weight and have tons of energy!!! The few times that I have gone off of the plan I feel sluggish and don't feel as mentally alert as when I am following the plan. The food is very tasty. I am a very bust real estate agent and the convenience of the food being prepared and delivered is priceless!! I have really bad food allergies and have eliminated my headaches by following your plan. Thank you!!!

I have tried other home delivery services, but I find that SlenderZone provides the best service as well as food. I was once on THE ZONE and for snacks all they provided was a protein bar. SlenderZone provides real and delicious food.
They work with you on the foods you like and don’t like and are very accommodating. I met with the representative and I immediately started receiving my food.
My husband, who is not on SlenderZone, is so impressed with the taste and quality that he sometimes will sneak and take some of my food. The lamb chops are fabulous and the deserts, well I can’t say enough. And the amounts provided are wonderful. I would recommend SlenderZone to anyone and everyone.
For anyone who wants to lose weight or just have food delivered to your home for convenience - THIS IS THE SERVICE.
Thank you for allowing me to say a few words about your company.

"This program of healthful eating habits has been the most effective and easiest to do ever! I have been losing more than my desired amount of weight and have been feeling energetic, stronger, and very clear-minded. I am never hungry and enjoy the carefully designed and prepared variety of foods that SlenderZone offers! On my first month anniversary, I am 14 1/2 pounds lighter and happier about a confident, healthier me!"

"Thank you, Sharon! I appreciate the consideration very much. As of last weekend I was at a 22 pound loss--which is fantastic. My initial goal is 30 pounds with an evaluation of the goal when I get there (ie do I need to lose more). However, the 30 pound total would put me back where I was when I got married (and before pregnancy)."

"I have an insanely busy schedule and had grown very tired of eating frozen, chemically processed foods daily so I decided to give your service a trial. I feel like I get surprise food gifts delivered with TLC each day. The pleasurably healthy mix of salads and fruit plus a gourmet meal (love the meatballs, shrimp, and miso fish) and scrum delicious desert is ideal. I am happier and able to maintain my healthy weight.�

"Best lunch I've had in ages. Delicious, nutritious, great energy. Now I'm truly inspired for work. And how about that cupcake?!! That can't be "legal"!!!!"
Ana Maria Bahiana
"I was skeptical about Slender Zone. But EVERY meal I've had on Slender Zone has been delicious. I am a very picky eater and unless produce is fresh and clean I simply won't eat it, which is probably why I started developing such bad eating habits. But the fruit and vegetables are always carefully prepared and fresh. The variety is simply amazing and I actually find myself looking forward to unwrapping what amazing creation you have for me next. Everyone who sees me comments on how much better I look (and this is only 10 days in). But perhaps the best and unexpected result is that I find myself sleeping so much better at night. I'm certain it has to do with the better food I'm putting in my body and how it has changed my make up. While I had gotten used to tossing and turning and waking up two or three times a night, I now find myself sleeping through the night and waking up in the morning feeling great. I had gone through sleep studies that could find nothing wrong with me, but you seemed to cure what no doctor could...so thank you!"
