Positive Effect on Self-Image and Behavior
Before going to Green Mountain I had lost all my self confidence.... My vision of myself was someone who couldn't achieve anything and would be stuck in a downward spiral my whole life. At Green Mountain I was surrounded by so many great and wonderful people who had insights into things I never would have thought I could ever be able to do, but I was wrong. Being there taught me how to love myself again, and not only that but how to change my life in order to be happy.

I would like to thank all the staff of Green Mountain for contributing to my experience. I arrived at Green Mountain, not sure exactly what I was going to garnish from the week. After having a heart attack nine years ago, I was noticeably concerned about "over doing" my exercise and with a milestone birthday fast approaching, I hoped Green Mountain would give me a new outlook about weight loss and new perspective on the next phase of my life. That was a tall order. I left Green Mountain with much more than I expected. I learned about “mindfu eating”, which I am incorporating in my daily life. I also left with a new sense of energy, confidence that I can push myself and I can do more. I learned techniques for stress reduction that I plan to implement in my daily life. I realize that it isn't necessary to "do it all" at once, but every day and every week if I add something new, change will come. Something I didn't expect o take away from GM were friends, I met some amazing wonderful women and I am happy they are in my life now. I will be forever grateful to the staff of GM for the gift of new perspective and renewed energy. Thank You.

It is not about the food when you leave Green Mountain. It’s about changing your life.

I find it pretty amazing that when I came here I was the typical “couch potato” and now actually enjoy getting up in the morning and going for a walk. It feels great!

I have struggled with depression for as long as I can remember. By working this program and seeking out all of the support available to me here, I have seen an amazing amount of improvement in that area. I have been on countless amounts of meds and tried numerous forms of therapy, but nothing has helped me as much as the program here at Green Mountain has. I leave here tomorrow a much stronger and more confident woman. Thank you Green Mountain. You've changed my life!!

Learning to see my body as an old friend and closest companion and realizing and appreciating all that it does for me, made me start the beginning stages of accepting my body at any size.

In my short time here at GM, I have gone from a feeling of desperation to one of true hope and happiness. For the first time in a long time, I was exposed to a part of the real “me.” In all the chaos, I had forgotten how much I used to like that person. Thank you for the reminder. It has provided me with the lifeline I needed and the ability to make the changes I wanted.

GM “fed” my soul. Not only learning and experiencing new information and exercise; but I found time to be quiet. I had time to process and practice new behaviors.

Weight and movement have been a problem for me for 44 years. I thought I had finally become an old woman. By the end of 2 weeks I was bouncing and smiling like the child I left behind. The world has opened up to me again.

I'm still glowing from my visit at Green Mountain. Thanks for the education, the honesty and the wonderful caring staff that makes it all work. Best of all, I like the way I feel about myself. I do have more weight to lose, but never have felt so competent and confident that I can do it. I'm living my way down.

I feel more capable of managing my eating - I am no longer a chaotic, high volume eater. I now realize that exercise can be enjoyable and make me feel good. These behavioral changes have enhanced my life in ways I never dreamed possible.
