AFTER: Healthy, Vibrant, & Full of Life!
BEFORE: Sad, depressed, & fed up...
Hi, my name is Alexander Morentin. I am the owner of My Fit Life and author of Better Living With Whole Foods: The Delicious & Nutritious Guide To Looking Great & Feeling Younger. I have been helping people lose weight and achieve vibrant health since 1987.
People who meet me today think that I have been fit my entire life, but that isn’t the case.
There was a period of time where I was sad, depressed, and had pretty much given up on life.
Click here to read the full story.
I show you these pictures and share my story with you, not to impress you, but to impress upon you the fact that I, myself, was extremely depressed and overweight.
I know what it’s like to feel helpless… that all hope is lost. That maybe I don’t deserve to be “in shape”, or to even be happy. It’s a terrible place to be.
I do have credentials, but more importantly, I have real world experience with my own battle with the bulge.
“I lost over 100 pounds and 12 inches off my waist and have never felt better. I would love to provide you with the guidance and encouragement to get in the best shape of your entire life.”
If you are ready to make a positive change, then I am here to help.
Your ultimate success is my #1 goal.

WOW!
Al, you are amazing! You have obviously come so far. I too understand the sad, depressed and fed up reality you experienced. My journey to greater health has been long and challenging. If I had only had someone like you to help me through it all early on. The idea of losing weight and feeling great seems like it should be a simple choice. Yet, for me, I sometimes was taking one step forward and two steps back. Goodness knows if you had been in my life then it would have been so much easier! Today, as I continue my journey to greater health, your presence has been priceless. Thank you so much for all of your support, encouragement and for sticking with me through the tough times. You are such a blessing. I recommend anyone who wants to lose weight and feel fantastic come see you. Even those who wonder if they really can achieve their dreams. You have certainly helped me achieve mine. Blessings, Dr. Brandy McCans
