“I have lost almost 20lbs and I feel great! As you can see I’m not young but I feel young. One thing I have to say about this program is, I was never hungry. That was a big deal. It was a little bit of a commitment but boy was it worth it! Everyone has noticed how much better I look and I notice how much better I feel!”

I am never hungry, and I am no longer bloated. I have lost 2 inches off my hips and 1 inch off my waist! I have lost 8-10 pounds and more weight is coming off! There is some serious soul work that goes on when I work with Michelle!  I would especially recommend her to anyone who is feeling stuck.  She is a master of getting people unstuck!  She is a precious gift to me and I am so thankful I found her!

Your program was such a blessing

“I went from weighing 150lbs to 131lbs and went from a 38 inch waist to a 34 inch waist! Thank you! You may not realize it but your program was such a blessing. I have struggled so very long to be healthy even as a child…years and years of frustration. I’m the healthiest I ever been!!!I have energy like I never had before. It all started because of your program!”

I’m beginning to trust my body’s capabilities more

Screenshot 2025 08 20 at 11.04.10 AM
“Before this program I didn’t really believe that I would enjoy exercising or that I would be able to get out from under the dark, heavy cloud of negative self-talk about my body. I was scared of the gym and insecure about what my body could do physically. I’ve release 15lbs because of this program! I am going to the gym and working out with a trainer. I’m also taking classes at a yoga studio. I’m beginning to trust my body’s capabilities more. I would recommend this program if you are looking for deep-hearted support, practical how-tos, and steady accountability to escape the “I hate my body” funk and get a body you love.”

Michelle made this program a life changing experience!

“Being a Nurse Practitioner, I felt my knowledge about nutrition was pretty good. Was I wrong! I learned so much from this program. I feel I am a more informed consumer and can make choices that honor keeping my body as healthy as possible. I have incorporated much of the programs principles to my lifestyle and feel healthier. I have lost some unwanted weight as well. Michelle is an inspirational teacher and made this program a life changing experience!”

After 13 weeks with Michelle’s support and teachings I lost 20lbs

“Before I began Michelle’s program I struggled with weight most of my adult life. After 13 weeks with her support and teachings, I lost 20lbs! The most difficult part for me is the psychological piece. Michelle’s teachings are clear, effective and interesting. It has made a HUGE difference in how I see myself and my goals for the future. I recommend her program wholeheartedly!”

Love Her Workout Philosophy

Screenshot 2025 08 20 at 11.04.10 AM
I chose to work with Michelle privately online because I love her workout philosophy and have become stronger and more fit than I have been in years. The trainings have been a great balance between building strength and staying flexible. I also love the balance work. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to get stronger, more resilient, and to get over nagging aches and pains that are often associated with not stretching and not moving.

I lost inches and feel more comfortable

I am very happy to report that I lost inches and feel more comfortable in my body after the detox program. I lost 3 cm in my chest, 6 cm in my waist and 7 cm in my hips. My clothes fit much better and I just feel lighter and sleeker. Plus, it helped me do a restart on my diet.

Elena Shea

I have been able to excel in my strength, stamina, and balance

Screenshot 2025 08 20 at 11.04.10 AM
I hired Michelle because I felt she was the trainer that really “heard me” and my concerns about my disabilities. I was not disappointed. Not only have I not been injured, which is the first time in years, but I have also been able to excel in my strength, stamina, and balance. In spite of my partial paralysis, I was able to hike to a waterfall this summer, thanks to Michelle!. I can’t recommend her enough.

Carol Shwery

I feel like my cravings are much more in control!

Screenshot 2025 08 20 at 11.04.10 AM
“Before this program I was craving something sweet after every meal and consuming a lot more sugar than I had realized. After this program, I feel like my cravings are much more in control! I am not craving sugar and I am eating much less sugar, and have lost a few pounds and inches because of it! I’d recommend this program if you feel “stuck” with your current weight and the little things you used to do to drop a few pounds aren’t working any more. Michelle’s program provided me with a lot of new knowledge and ideas for getting my body back in balance and allowing it to release some belly fat. It was a great program for providing some accountability for me without any stress or pressure to prove anything to anyone.”

You can do this, Michelle is there for you!

Screenshot 2025 08 20 at 11.04.10 AM
“Before this program I had little to no motivation to get healthy. I had gotten so used to being fat that I almost gave up on myself. Michelle has also opened my eyes to the idea that healthy living isn’t just necessary, it’s enjoyable. I would recommend this program if you struggle with motivation to be healthy and fit, if you have a hard time finding something positive and/or encouraging about yourself, and if you are finally ready to see yourself as the sexy, strong, confident woman you want to be. You can do this, Michelle is there for you!”

This detox program was AWESOME!

“This detox program was AWESOME! This program helped me reset my thinking about food and supplements. My body feels much healthier and my entire being feels more positive. The whole process was invigorating and inspiring. Since beginning this program and the live Pilates Cardiocamp class, I have lost over 20 pounds, lots of inches and have dropped 2 pants sizes as well as a size smaller top – lost loads of back fat. The detox class was a fantastic way of bringing my fitness and well being to the next level.

It’s Great to help us find our own inner worth!

Screenshot 2025 08 20 at 11.04.10 AM
Before this program I was worried about my weight. After this program I am more ok with who I am, and discovered some powerful unconscious patterns around eating and self-care. I would recommend this program to people who want to uncover old patterns and stories, and have a good time doing it! It’s great to help us find our own inner worth.

Before the cleanse, I felt like I was starting to lose control. Now, I feel healthier and have lost 10-pounds, 7-inches! I am very thankful I found Michelle and her detox program! I would highly recommend this to someone that feels stuck and just needs to get plugged into something that will work.

Tina M.

I saw immediate results

This year I was determined to shed the extra pounds that crept up and stayed well after Christmas. But I couldn’t budge it. I signed up for Michelle’s detox program and I saw immediate results! I released about 5 pounds. I’m eating better and feeling great. I know how to shed pounds now. I recommend this program to everyone who would like to start fresh, feel good, and be trimmer.

Ellen Petrill

I feel hopeful after loosing 11 pounds

Before the program I had spent a lot of time feeling hopeless about my weight and feeling like I just didn’t know where to start. Being a busy mom of six year old twins and raising two step children I was always worrying about everyone else’s needs except my own. After the program I feel hopeful after loosing 11 pounds and I have so much more energy. I feel like I have a plan now and feel so much happier. I would recommend this plan to anyone who is feeling hopeless and needs guidance on how to take care of themselves. Thank you, Michelle!

Elvia Felicie

She has an amazing amount of information that’s incredibly valuable

I’m a mind body therapist and I use neuroscience to help people uncover the mind game of weight loss. I was really impressed when I found Michelle Melendez’s guide book to help you get thin. She has an amazing amount of information that’s incredibly valuable. If you’re trying to lose weight, you really need to look at because it is a wealth of information, very clearly written, from the heart and it’s exactly what you need.

Dr. Cynthia Sholes

Released 18 lbs and gone down 2 pants sizes

Before the detox, I was very frustrated about how much weight I had gained after menopause. My self-esteem was really affected and I didn’t fit into any of my clothes. After the detox, I have released 18 lbs and gone down 2 pants sizes. I have tried many programs that gave me insight but nothing was able to give me the change in my behavior and habits like this program. I would recommend this program to anyone that needs comprehensive educational information about what healthy eating is and how to do it.

Karen,  Santa Cruz Ca

I would recommend this to program for anyone out there!

I just finished a retreat with Michelle.

I have learned to love my body…ALL of it…every part.

I would recommend this to program for anyone out there! It’s the BEST there is! Thanks, Michelle.

I have new ways of leading a life I really want

Before this retreat, I felt stuck in my routines and wanted to learn new tools to get unstuck. After the retreat, I feel I have new waysof leading a life I really want. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to improve the way they feel and their energy and living a life they really love.

Michelle was super awesome the way she organized it

“Before this retreat, I was looking for something that would help me find more self-love and translate that into becoming a healthier person. Michelle was super awesome the way she organized it. There were moving meditations and educational tools. I’d recommend this to any woman looking for something to help them to get closer to being happy and filling the joy in their heart of who they want to be.

I now feel I CAN live in a body I Love!

I was so overwhelmed I almost canceled. I didn’t feel I could pause for 4-days and take time for myself. I’m so glad I didn’t cancel. Taking the time to come here, and slow-down, I now feel that I CAN live a life I love, in a body I love. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is going so fast trying to give to the world and ignoring their own health to come, pause, be in this beautiful setting, with this beautiful teacher and learn to take good care of yourself.

She is definitely a pro in what she does!

I just took a complementary session with Michele and it was absolutely fantastic. She really focuses on your needs and in the areas you need to work out the most. I felt that in 45 minutes I worked my body so integrally that I felt both relaxed and stronger afterwards. Her exercises and approach seem quite unique and outside the box. She is definitely a pro in what she does! I would recommend her to everyone!!

Michelle truely knows her stuff

Michelle truely knows her stuff when it comes to weight loss and healing. She explains in detail how our emotions effect our weight and it’s one of the main factor that needs to be addressed before we can succeed in our weight loss journey long term. Anyone can lose weight in the short term and it’s by healing our emotion that we can be successful at losing weight long term and keep it off. I found Michelle to be a very open and loving person and very easy to connect with. And I’m really looking forward to continuing working with Michelle in the future

I feel so much more energetic

Michelle’s program helped curb my sugar cravings!

I signed up because I had gestational diabetes so it is especially important that I eat carefully with respect to sugar. I have a definite sweet tooth but Michelle’s program helped curb my sugar cravings! I really noticed a difference in my skin (it glowed) and had more energy when doing the program. I wholeheartedly recommend this program for anyone looking to jumpstart good healthy habits and curb sugar cravings

Michelle showed us how personal healing can shift the energy we hold everyday!

Michelle’s workshop is very powerful! She showed us how personal healing can shift the energy we hold everyday. I deeply appreciate her work and her sincere desire to help move us into higher frequencies, beyond the fears and commotion that covid has created in our lives. Thank you, Michelle.

Vinaya B

The healing workshop was VERY cleansing

The healing workshop was VERY cleansing Experienced on the Eve of the Winter Solstice, the energy was magical. I revisited memories from childhood, some I hadn’t thought about in years, from a completely new perspective. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to release childhood/past trauma, embrace love and forgiveness, and looking to improve your relationship with yourself, and others. Mahalo Michelle!

Amy S.

I am glad that I attended this workshop

I am glad that I attended this workshop. It has left me lighter, empowered, and more hopeful of creating better life experiences for myself. Most important is that the self recrimination, and judgment of self and others is getting eroded with the conscious practices I learned.

Vinaya B.

I am in a completely different place mentally and emotionally

“I am in a completely different place mentally and emotionally after taking Michelle’s program. I have shifted old habits and have formed new ones and it feels good. I am deeply grateful for this life and body that I have to experience this life in! I am also deeply grateful to the other participants from whom I bonded with and learned from. Michelle, know that you have changed my life for the better forever and I am deeply grateful for your love and guidance.”

Kayleen Evans

After this program I am down 8 pounds

“Before this program I was stuck in a rut and eating foods that made me feel tired and grumpy even though I loved eating my comfort foods. After this program I am down 8 pounds and feeling more energy and I feel that I have shifted and not so addicted to those comfort foods. I would recommend this program if you feel sluggish or unhealthy. I feel liberated and much more knowledgeable about what I need to do to move forward and make my future different from my past.”

Kayleen Evans

I would recommend this program to anyone who is looking for a sisterhood like support-system

I signed up for the program in hopes of getting a handle on my health including but not limited to food consumption, exercise, and just implementing a healthier lifestyle. I would recommend this program to anyone who is looking for a sisterhood like support-system that will guide and support them in restructuring their life around healthier sustainable living.

Amelah El-Amin

I have learned to love and acceptance myself

I first thought this program was going to be about food. What has been so refreshing is it has focused on my emotional relationship with my body! I have learned to love and acceptance myself and my body on a level I never thought possible! It has changed my relationship with food. Any emotions that come up, I now know what to do with them, and the resistance just falls away. I am enjoying healthy foods for the first time in my life. My sugar cravings are gone, my energy has increased and I’m excited about what my future holds continuing to explore, living in a body that I love!! Thank you for your wisdom Michelle! This work is fantastic!

I feel much more positive and happier after her workout

I have never thoroughly enjoyed myself so much. The affirmations Michelle uses makes it so addictive that you have to keep going, plus it’s very short. I feel much more positive and happier after her workout.

You’re a blessing!

Thank you so much! The classes I’ve been able to catch on replay I’ve really liked. You’re a blessing!

Holly

The workouts during the free weeks were AMAZING

Thanks Michelle. The workouts during the free weeks were AMAZING and I’m happy to say that I will be join your Get Fit Program. I can’t even imagine not working out on a regular basis anymore. The way you teach is amazing and perfect fit for me. 🙂

Ana Tejada

It is all positive and helps me feel happy.

I like that you start the class with “I get to do this workout…” Whenever I am having trouble I just keep moving or stretching and listen to the words you are staying and it is all positive and helps me feel happy. Thanks.

Holly

I’m Loving it!

Day two for me and I’m loving it. Love the three levels for each workout. Gives me the confidence to start at a higher level and the option to drop back down to a lower level if it gets difficult. I’m surprised at how much I can actually do.

Ana

It felt like we were workout partners

Yay!! Loved it! I can’t wait until I gain more mobility, become more limber. Thank you, it was so nice that I could see you AND you could see me. It felt like we were workout partners, which makes it so much more fun!! And the affirmations are a treasure. So often I focus on the negative voice, and it feels so much better to focus on the positive! Thank you, thank you!!!

Susan

The affirmations helps your body & mind.

Thanks for another great class. Did Freedom Friday in replay. Just what I needed. balance & functional movement. The affirmations helps your body & mind.

Barbara

The affirmations made me feel safe and secure

Awesome class- Freedom Friday! Just enough challenge. Loved the functional exercises. The affirmations made me feel safe and secure and made me appreciate my body and the world I live in! Thank you!!!

Guests were amazing!

…and I love how every one of the guests was “amaaaaaaaaazing!” Then again, that’s why I pay the big money for the “PASS.”

Darlene

My strength has absolutely increased!

I love the classes and you! I want to tell you how grateful I am that I can now lift my kayak out of the water by myself! My strength has absolutely increased! I so appreciate you!

Jill Lublin

My motivation has now returned!

I can highly recommend the work that Michelle does. The commitment to detail and working with the ‘obsessing’ mind is where Michelle shines. I have had many breakthroughs each week and I feel so much better. I have been able to confront my fears & speak my truth much easier. My motivation has now returned and I feel that I can move forward into a more productive life. Thank you Michelle!

Glenda Rowett

Awesome insights!

These are awesome insights! I can’t wait to digest the rest. Thank you so much for sharing them with us.

Mary

Thank you, Michelle, for your awesome videos and for your constant encouragement

I started super easy with this Move Toward Your Goal in the Rose Garden at Chico. The concept that Michelle continues to speak about, that of “no judgment” is more important than I realized. I can easily drop into a place of being shocked at how difficult it is for me to lift up the smallest weight while simultaneously lifting a leg. At 63, balance has become an issue for me. But, I stuck with the video, much as I was disappointed with my lack of balance/weakness. This was a short, doable workout and I think if I were to do it 4 to 5 times a week, I would see great improvement in my balance. I can do this! Thank you, Michelle, for your awesome videos and for your constant encouragement as you take us through these workouts and this program. I need this!

Pam

I was smiling the whole time

I did your Fun Free Home Workout today and loved it! I was smiling the whole time.

Heather

Michelle is an instructor like no other

She has the remarkable ability to inspire me to “want” to work out! She says things like, “You don’t have to work out, You Get to Work Out!” I love that! I would recommend her to anybody that wants to feel more positive and less negative about working out.

Janet P.

Michelle connected with my heart

Michelle connected with my heart. I finally felt understood watching her End Dieting Hell video. Over the years, I struggled taking pounds off and then they returned. Can you believe this has been going on for at least 79 of my 83 years? Now, I have found a path forward with a passionate understanding coach. I know I will succeed with Michelle’s guidance

Joyce P. Canada

I’m very impressed with this program

I’m very impressed with this program. The real difference is your steady stream of affirmations- what a perfect time to be working on making them consciously- and conscientiously…during a workout! Great program, and I appreciate it’s affordable. Quite a value.

Heather O’Brophy

I discovered there was so much more to know!

“Before this program I thought I was very knowledgeable about nutrition and what contributes to weight loss and gain, however I discovered there was so much more to know. The program was easy to follow and Michelle was excellent at explaining the concepts. I am so much more conscious about what I eat, when I eat and how much I eat. I highly recommend this class!”

Linda Alfano

I LOVED this program!!

“I LOVED this program!! Huge problems for me were gaining/loosing weight for years off and on, major digestive issues, like boating (every day), and belly fat (couldn’t seem to get past the plateau). By the end of this program, each of my problems were fixed! I feel like I was given so much information and so many great tools, it has been amazing! When I lost weight in the past, I lost inspiration and gave up and went back to my old eating habits. This time with all these tools, I have been able to stick with a new lifestyle and in return the weight has been coming off! Measurements: 6 weeks, BMI: Before 26/ After 24.9, Waist Circumference: Before 34/ After 32.5”

Laura Barone

I have release 16lbs and am loving it!

“I’ve been working out now 3 x’s a week, have released 16lbs and am loving it! I attribute this change in my life to you and your program. I appreciate all you do and stand for and I wanted to thank you for your program!!! Thank you so much for the work that you do!”

Paula Marsh

Being a part of the group has provided the inspiration to get me exercising

“Being a part of the group has provided the inspiration to get me exercising at least 5 days every week. It’s starting to feel like a vital part of my life again and I’m loving that.”

Anita Breeze

I went from a size 18 to a size 14!

“Before this program I was not working out regularly. Michelle is a good motivator and gave a lot of suggestions about how to get moving and do a workout. She also gave helpful diet suggestions. She is always positive an encouraging. I have learned how to do a quick workout and how to find time for it. The program was helpful and a good investment of time and money. Also I went from a size 18 to a size 14!”

Kathy Pomeroy

Michelle has an upbeat coaching style

Michelle’s an experienced, professional trainer who makes working out fun. She never makes you feel small or inadequate. Michelle has an upbeat coaching style which, along with her affirmations, leaves you feeling great. I’m enjoying many benefits and I’m happy I signed up. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to do something good for themselves.

Pam Fazzini

Workout in the Comfort of Your Own Home

I chose to work with Michelle privately online because it offers me the flexibility and accountability I need to stick to a workout routine.The trainings have been challenging in a good way! I would recommend her to anyone who wants a great workout in the comfort of your own home!

Anna Spier

I stopped talking myself into being fat-Thank you Michelle!

Before the program I literally talked my self into being fat! I was so hard on my self, criticizing every slight imperfection. Your program really woke me up! I had several real “a-ha” moments on the calls. Since the program, I am naturally making healthier food choices without struggle. I feel more at EASE with myself and am committed to caring for myself. I would recommend Michelle’s program to anyone who feels trapped and is struggling with weight loss! Thank you thank you thank you Michelle!
