Rather than posting each individual story, flooding my facebook page, and possibly annoying some people, I decided to compile some of these success stories for you to read all at once. Maybe you will be able to relate with one or more of these testimonials. Then, maybe you would be more willing to give It Works a try and see if our products could make a difference in your life, if they could help you with your specific health concerns and goals. Maybe you will be able to write and share your own It Works success story someday! I would love to be a part of it if you do!!!! ;)
Well, let's get started then!
First, I want you to meet Tami Buchi Yingling.
BEFORE using It Works:
Sooo... I feel like I need to share my "story" with those of you who don't know me very well... Just over 5 years ago I was 98 lbs heavier. I finally made the choice to get healthy, one step at a time. 1st step, give up my 6+ diet cokes a day. 2nd step, finally realize that by me taking time to put myself FIRST and take care of my health, then I was truly able to take care of everyone and everything else so much better (oxygen mask theory)! 3rd step, watched The Biggest Loser and got very motivated... went out and bought Jillian Michaels "Master Your Metabolism" book and "Burn Fat, Boost Metabolism" workout DVD and did them religiously for over a year AT HOME!
Then we moved to Florida and I made a goal to run a full marathon. While I trained for this I joined a fitness club and starting strength training and yoga/pilates/tai chi. I did several 5 k's; a 10k; a half marathon and then finally the full Salt Lake Marathon. P.S.... I am NOT a runner, nor ever will be... so that was my first and LAST marathon. But after that, I realized that I could DO or BE anything I wanted! So I made my NEXT goal... to get my personal training certification, which I did when I started working at Gold's gym as a personal trainer.
At just about 80 lbs lost (which took me 4 yrs) and after being at a plateau for a whole YEAR, I was introduced to ItWorks Global by my good friend Tonya Mcdonald. I tried a SKINNY WRAP... and it has truly changed my life. I started using the Thermofit, Wraps and our AMAZING Greens and lost 18 lbs and 13 1/2 inches in just 7 short weeks and BLASTED thru my plateau... without changing any of my already pretty healthy eating habits, exercise regimen or having to "die-t"...
I've just recently left Gold's to run my own company now as an ItWorks distributor and it is growing by LEAPS AND BOUNDS and we are getting out of debt and making our dreams and goals a reality. I am passionate about our products... ITWORKS!, PEOPLE!!! I am GRATEFUL beyond words to be able to help others realize that it is NEVER too late to start working on your health and fitness! I am 41 yrs "young" now and have never felt better in my WHOLE life! I love the journey that I have gone thru and want to be able to help others do the same thing ;-) Just thought I'd share.... and maybe help inspire just one person along the way! Much ♥, - Tam
AFTER It Works:
Now, let's hear from Tina Kenndey-Eller:
When my sister-in-law invited me to a wrap party I decided to go to see what this is all about. I have multiple health problems and figured I would give this product a shot. I purchased Greens and it's vital. Within 3 weeks I was off blood pressure medication. I also have Ménière's disease. I had been on dozens of medications trying to regulate my issues. This is literally the only thing that has helped. I am also diabetic and just started the fat fighter. I will let you know when I say BYE, BYE to Metformin because I already know It Works!!
I am happy to report that I went to the doctor today and my b/p was 124/76!!!! He was thrilled that this was working!! I love my Greens!!
Next up is Michelle Ramsey Hilden:
Nov 6, 2011 I was introduced to IWG and my life was forever changed.
Prior to that date I have lived my whole life with severe chron’s disease. It was so bad that it kept me from working full time. My colon would spasm so bad I had to go 7-10 days at a time with a liquid only diet. When I could eat I would hoard food not helping my weight at all. My acidic level in my system was so high I screamed every time I had to use the restroom which was up to 30 times a day. It often took me 5-10 minutes after until I was able to walk again. I was told I would have no problems qualifying for SSI. I was just too stubborn to give in to feeling useless. I had a passion for teaching Special Ed. I wasn’t giving it up if I could help it. I was so sick I couldn’t make it thru college but I found my in as a para-educator four hour a day.
Because of the high acid level in my system my body was attacking itself. I no longer have my gull bladder, appendix and have had liver surgery. I went to get tested for MS as I was having severe frequent migraines and numbness with my arms and legs. I was surprised to find out I was now battling a brain tumor. Thank the lord it was not cancerous. With everything going on and with me on so many meds I got myself up to almost 300 lbs.
I was truly walking death and was exhausted with my battles. My husband and I were trying to get everything together because I just didn’t have much more fight in me. My spirit was strong but my fight was gone. We couldn’t keep up with the medical debt. But because my husband Brent made a decent income we qualified for nothing. We actually lived on Mac n cheese because everything we had went to Dr. Bills so they would still see me. We had collection calls all day long, you can imagine the guilt I had as a mom doing that. I was the reason we weren’t living like the income my husband made should have allowed us to. In turn it spun my body out of control even worse.
Who would of thought an invite to wrap party would of changed my whole world?
Nov 6th 2011 I was invited to a wrap party from Trish Turnage. I actually wasn’t planning on going because I wasn’t feeling well. Trish called and asked where I was and said she was coming to get me if I didn’t drive myself. (Yep I drove) My biggest fear for going was I didn’t think a measuring tape would fit around me. Thank you to Inge Lincoln for having the insight to measure me privately in the bedroom. I shrank belt notches in those first 45 minutes.
I became a Distributor that night. I spent money I didn’t have thinking I can make some money for my family before I go. Why I thought I could do it I have no clue. But I did. I earned my 120.00 in free product and I bought the greens and regular as part of my earnings. Within 3 days of starting those two products I knew life for me was changing and fast. I was no longer acidic. I wasn’t crying every time I had to go. And I finally had some energy. My body was finally holding onto some of the nutrients and felt better than I ever have.
That was just over a year ago from me writing this today. Since I started on the supplements for in works by my own choice I no longer take any prescription drugs. I have not had a bout of Chron’s in the last 12 months and the migraines from my brain tumor that I had 3 to 4 times a week I have had 2 this last year.
Not only do I feel AMAZING but my family and I are living a life we never could before. Living your life around where there is a bathroom and if it will have a line is no longer a problem for us. My husband and I recently went to our first Sea Hawks game together. That would have never happened prior to me taking the greens and regular.
I now have a passion for IWG. My why is HUGE. My husband and kids stuck by me thru all of my illnesses. It is my turn to give them the life they deserve.
Jo Ann Farmer and DeNee Morehouse both shared about their positive results with Confianza and Greens:
I have been taking Confianza for two weeks now and it is way better then my Rx anxiety meds. I am breastfeeding and so I have been off my meds through my pregnancy and while breastfeeding. So I decided to try the Confianza it is working great and I am only taking 1 pill in the morning. The recommended dose is two pills but I fill like if one works for me I will stick with that. I am very happy with my results!
My husband works in law enforcement and has been taking the confianza for 1.5 years (he also takes the greens). He loves it! It helps to keep him focused and as he puts it "it just levels out the highs and lows for me and keeps me on an even keel." Bonus: he used to go through ibuprofen for headaches like it was going out of style...not anymore. Headaches are very rare now. I love it!
Angie Pringle Coy writes how New You has helped her:
First off I have been so discouraged with my doctors that I recently quite taking all my meds and today I started taking the NEW YOU and after a few hours of the first dose my Sinus's started draining (and still are) and I can breathe better than I have in a VERY LONG TIME! I picked New you to start with because it leans towards the health issue I have experienced in the past so I am hoping that I will continue to post more about my journey on the New You and other products It works offers! To be continued.......
New You has helped me with and issue that arised within this past year of just not wanting to be intimate or even be touched by my husband and that I am very excited to say is GONE! Thank you Lord for giving the folks at It works the wisdom to create such an awesome product!!! I also had depression issues they are deminishing very quickly too! I haven't had near as much pain as I am used to having and I have only had one headache since starting and I had a migraine/headache almost everyday for the past 5-6 years ! My anxiety has also deminished!!!!!
Ree Higgins tells how It Works has helped her with PMDD:
I have had severe pmdd in the past - was on prescription meds etc - I went off all medications in October except xanax for anxiety because I felt like they stopped helping me- I discovered It Works a month and a half ago - I got a sample of Greens from my sponsor when I first signed up - I was familiar with Greens from other companies (but none affected me in a good or bad way) - I liked the energy boost they gave me so I ordered some for myself - WELL I have never felt so good in my LIFE - when I get stressed I feel it so much less than I ever have before - Im able to "handle" it better ...only thing I changed at that time was Greens ... my sister fell into a depression and she has the worse pms of anyone with crying bouts and emotions all over the place ... I gave her a half month sample of greens she is like a new person - she was ready to go to the dr for prescription antidepressants and now doesnt feel she needs to .... and best of all she just got her period and her pms was very mild in comparison - I gave her confianza to try "as needed" for the mild pms and stress and I take it myself but honestly havent needed it in a week - altho I probably will when pms hits me ... and best of all?? I have not touched my bottle of xanax in WEEKS! Im the person who is always loaning out a xanax here and there - now I give them a week sample of greens and say try this! It WOrks!!
And Chelsea Fowler was delighted with the results she had on Estro-Rhythm to help with PCOS:
30 days of EstroRhythm for PCOS
Regulated menstrual cycle
No ovarian pain
Helped me lose 10lbs
Steady hormones
"Hot flashes" gone
21 years old and I had menopausal symptoms. . Estrorhythm is a miracle!

| It's NOT just for Menopausal Women after all!!! |
Kristen has also suffered from PCOS and shared on facebook today:
I have pcosn and we just found out that I'm 8 weeks pregnant!!! The only thing I have done differently in the past 3 months compared to the past 6 years is I have been taking the Greens everyday and wrapping once a week.
Kellie Kaufman also loved the results she had with It Works products:
I had so much scar tissue in my uterus and tubes from endometriosis I was un able to get pregnant. I had an ultra sound a month before starting on greens this last spring to see if it was worth them "SCRAPING" yes "SCRAPING" my tubes and uterus of the scars!!! They told me there was so much that removing it would for sure make me infertile (even if I did IVF) and leave me in even more pain.
I was devastated this was 3 years after finding out there was a problem, they were hoping this medicine I was on for 6 months would heal some of the scaring but it actually got worse ): I was a mess. But 7 months on greens I found out I was pregnant! My personal doctor was SHOCKED at an early ultra sound 80% of my scaring was gone in just 7 months and nothing else had changed in my life at all but taking greens!
When my doctor did some research she said that the alkalizing and detoxing along with many ingredients in the greens have long time been known to help infertile women! Now I'm 4 1/2 months pregnant and baby is so healthy! I can't wait to be a mom!
Dorie McLemore also wrote about how Greens are changing her life:
I was struggling with constant joint pain for 18 mos.. I couldn't sit for long periods of time or 'overdo' movement, it even hurt to hold my husband's hand because the joints in my fingers would be too sore. I would cry from pain in my wrists and knees after pushing a grocery cart around a store! I had seen 3 specialists before becoming a distributor for It Works..I had gotten diagnosed with different things..all 3 doctors wanted me to start on medications that had a load of side effects and told me they weren't a 'cure'..just would buy me time before I would need a wheelchair!! The last diagnosis was for fibromyalgia ..which is most likely what it is. I tried all kinds of natural remedies and things other people told me to try in an effort to avoid the prescriptions, but nothing worked. I started reading a bunch of other people's testimonies on Greens & fibro so I figured I would give it a try but I wasn't very hopeful. After taking Greens for 3 DAYS, I was about 90% PAIN-FREE!! I played dodge ball with my kids & a group of college kids we work with and a few weeks later, I jumped on a trampoline with my girls for an hour with no pain!! This has been a life-changer for me. I thank God for bringing this product into my hands and feel so blessed. I have been on it for several months and still feel amazing!!! Praise God!:)
Michele Lynn McClurg has also benefited greatly from the Greens, my personal favorite of all It Works products (as you can probably tell why):
Hello all, This is my Testimonial for Greens & my short time using it!!!
I am 42 yrs old this June & was diagnosed w/ Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) a long-term autoimmune disorder that may affect the skin, joints, kidneys, brain, and other organs. Symptoms vary from person to person, and may come and go. I also have Fibromyalgia. No one in my family has Lupus, but my Mother has Fibromyalgia. My diagnosis was a very long painfall road to learning or knowing how to cope w/ everyday functions in life. For years I was having labs drawn, had numerous x-rays believing that I was crazy! As the years went I started thinking that there was nothing wrong w/ me & it was all in my head. The pain felt so real in my hands, feet, hips, neck, back & shoulders. I couldnt sleep or eat. Exercising had become a thing of the past. Used to ride bikes w/ my children & couldn't even pedal w/out tears in my eyes from my knee pain. I finally could not handle the pain or the frustration of not enjoying the outdoors w/ my 3 young children. The family doctor had done all he could & said my labs were off.......he referred me to a Rheumatologist! Well he started w/ the full work up of fasting labs, scans x-rays & pulled all the ones I had in years past, was tested for Rheumatoid arthritis, but knew that wasn't it since I never swelled, tested for MS since it runs in my family, ruling out 1 diagnosis @ a time. He knew what I had by my Lovely Butterfly Rash, but he wanted to rule out everything else also!
So finally I had an answer to all my craziness! But what did that help? Nothing, I had to start medications to see what would work & for a constant 3 months to see if they worked, 1 after another didnt help, anti inflammatories, pain killers, you name I tried it. Went to a nutritionist, diet changes didnt help, went to a naturalist to try herbs & natural healings, I was getting to where my husband rubbing my back felt like razor blades & I would cry. Well finally I gave up on meds, exercise & just dealt w/ the pain. I met Cortney @ a Vendor Show in December & asked some questions about the products. She did research for me after I explained my issues. She shared some others stories w/ me & at first I did not believe that 1 product could help that much, so I thought about it for a month & did the research myself. I had gone on a spa day & could not walk for a week afterwards & knew I needed to make a change for myself & my family, I am too young to feel this way!
I decided to give it a try. I ordered the Greens & began taking it right away, the first 5 tries were difficult, tried it w/ water, never again, milk, OJ, apple juice, then I decided to try my 7 year olds Elmo mini Berry juice box!!!! That was it, I mix 2 scoops in a mixing cup & then drink loads of ice water all day!! I have also stopped drinking soda! After a week, I started noticing I wasn't exhausted everyday & I was able to sleep on my side because my hips werent killing me! Well I decided to not drink it on Saturday, well I could tell the difference, my feet were hurting & hips did also. So I stopped for Sunday also, to just see. Well big mistake, I started back up on Monday & w/in 2 days feeling a diference. I sit at a computer all day working an Accounts Receivable job typing, was extremely painfull every day! This Greens to me was a Miracle Drug, I seriously was thinking mind over matter that this couldnt be possible, how can 2 tiny scoops a day make that much of a difference?! I had been away & forgot my Greens @ home & really just plain forgot about it, the next day I was moaning from the pain. I have not forgotten a day since! I am energetic again, pain free, no more headaches, I dont hurt when someone touches me! It is really amazing! I am Blessed to have this in my life right now!!! Thanks Cortney!!!
I have started my elliptucal exercises again & playing Just Dance on the Wii again, can carry my laundry up down the stairs, bend down w/out crying & Sleep!!!! My life is back!!!! I feel Beautiful & Alive!!! I will continue getting myself back into shape 1 day at a time!
I am just going to start adding the fat fighters into my daily routine next month on top of the Greens to see if I can help my body fight more!!!!
