Cheryl Poulin Testimonials

Introduction

Hi, I’m Cheryl Poulin. It’s nice to meet you.

I’m a certified coach and sugar addiction counselor. I love what I do. I love my clients. And I love the difference I can help make in their lives.

Let me tell you about my clients. They are men and women from all walks of life. But they all have one thing in common. Do you know what it is?

They want help to manage their weight and to stop the Yo-Yo diet madness. That’s where I come in.

I work closely with my clients. I love that part of my job. They tell me about how they have changed because of working with me. And can you guess what they say most often?

...they experience weight loss, better health markers, and increased confidence.

They say they experience weight loss, better health markers, and increased confidence. Yes, increased confidence! Who knew?

Some go even further. Some tell me they have reclaimed control over what they had thought was hopelessly lost and are now on a path to much happier futures.

You know it doesn’t get better than that... does it?

And what about you? I know that taking the first step to ask for help takes tremendous courage. It can be a bit like coming out from the secrecy of the shadows. I have been there too.

And what about you? I know that taking the first step to ask for help takes tremendous courage.

I know that it’s uncomfortable to take a new path you’ve never travelled. I know what it’s like to consider putting your trust into someone you don’t know... that feeling of uncertainty.  Let’s face it… that’s why you’re here.

But… and it's a big but... I also know the rewards.

How many weight loss programs have you looked into? How many have you tried? I’m sure you would agree, that navigating through the opinions and programs can be confusing to say the least. And I have no doubt you know reclaiming your health and wellness can be challenging.

Then there's food addiction. Personally, I know that managing a food addiction can be frustrating and overwhelming. For that has been a real part of my journey.

But here's the good news... I know it can all be managed and resolved!

But here's the good news... I know it can all be managed and resolved!

Do you want to take on these complex challenges alone? You don’t need to.

I know it’s a big step to ask for help. But I also know that engaging with a professional coach can mean the difference between success and failure.

The other option is to do nothing. You already know where that leads. Do you really want to go there?

Here’s what a few of my clients have to say…

From M.L. in Ontario, Canada

Cheryl is an incredibly gentle and caring person. She made me feel so at ease and so comfortable talking to her about my health issues and with completing the SUGAR® Assessment.

She walked me through the process step by step. It was effortless! I highly recommend anyone who thinks they may have a sugar addiction to fill out the assessment. It was an  enlightening experience for me. Finally knowing the truth made it that much easier to make a plan to end the use of sugar in my diet.

Filling out the SUGAR® Assessment was very therapeutic in and of itself, before I even got the results back. It was in that moment that I realized how strong a hold sugar had on me since my childhood. 

After reviewing the results of my SUGAR® Assessment, Cheryl and I were chatting openly about how I felt. Funnily enough, instead of feeling disappointed or sad, I actually felt relief! It was a wonderful experience for me, almost liberating. I realized that I not only have a sensitive gut, but I also have a very sensitive brain. And interestingly, I am a very sensitive and emotional individual. All of these sensitivities would have been very beneficial for me back in the ancestral days as I would have protected and nourished my family and I well. 

I finally knew without a doubt what I was dealing with and I was excited to take the next step to end my sugar addiction. I now had a goal/plan and didn't want to flounder anymore. I was ready to take the bull by its horns and begin living the life I was meant to live, sugar-free. And I knew Cheryl would be there by my side every step of the way. She is such a down-to-earth person with a huge heart and I trust her wholeheartedly.

Cheryl, you are a God-send. You have found your calling and I can't thank you enough for opening my eyes and guiding me on this new beautiful path. My days feel full of light and sunshine again!!

From C. Brown in Ottawa, Canada

"If you’re reading this, then you have a story that is probably similar to mine. My story goes something like this. For all my life (which is now over 60 years) I have always been a little heavier than I should be. So, that begs the question, how heavy should I be?

The medical community has always told me I was too heavy, society told me through advertising media I was too heavy and as a result, my own self-image reminded me constantly of the same thing.

As an athletic young man, I was able to keep the spreading pounds at bay, but as middle age crept up on me, I realized that something much more insidious was going on, the extra pounds were shortening my life. The truth is that as you get older you begin to question your own mortality and the question changes from, “…. what weight should I be?”  to, “…how healthy do I want to be, and ultimately, how long do I want to live?” For me, it was the on-set of rheumatoid arthritis in my late 50’s that changed the question. No matter how old you are, if you are ready to change the question, you are in the right place. 

Working Together

I started to work with Cheryl at the beginning of this year (2024). Right from our very first discussion she helped me to stay focussed on my health, and the pay-back in the last 8 months has been significant. I can truly say that I have not felt this good physically, mentally and emotionally in 15 years (and for anyone who likes the numbers, that equates to 40lbs and 5 inches on my waistline).

It is by no means an easy journey, but Cheryl is an excellent travel companion. She is always there to answer my questions and ready with encouragement when needed. To this point I have not needed it, but I suspect that if I needed a bit of a kick in the pants, she would be happy to do that too!! 😊

A-ha Moment!

During one of our early meetings (it might have been the first one), Cheryl introduced me to the concept of food addiction – a concept which I had heard of, but not considered as a factor for me. Nonetheless, I decided to do the SUGAR® Assessment.

I have to confess, that when we discussed the results of the assessment it had a profound effect on me. Not only did I learn a lot about myself, but it motivated me do a lot more of my own research in addition to the significant amount of information that Cheryl makes available. After all, knowledge is power, and now I have the power!!"

From Nancy Kaplan, Montreal Canada

"Cheryl has been so inspiring in my journey of weight loss. Her skill in listening to my personal story is amazing. She is able with ease to put the pieces together in such a way that is precise, honest, knowledgeable and most importantly user friendly …Her recommendations are fair, sensible and not overwhelming … she is a bright star in my weight loss world."

From Rosalyn B. D., Ottawa Canada

"I am very grateful to Cheryl for her support and assistance, in revealing to me, the extent of my sugar addiction.  It was so liberating to know that I am not responsible, for my addiction.  It was not easy to reveal my past experiences regarding food, and my addiction to sugar, but Cheryl’s patience and compassion opened the door of trust for me to share my on-going struggles, with sugar and food. 

Cheryl, through this process presented me with tools on how to overcome this addiction.  I am in a better place today as a result of working with Cheryl.  I am grateful she has left the door open for me to contact her if and when the need arises. I highly recommend her services!"
