Hi Oscar,  I know that you care about each of us in that room.  I know this because you show it with your enthusiasm for our success, your counsel for our mistakes, and your never-ending belief that we can all DO MORE.  There are many of us who appreciate your role, however large or small, in our personal transformations.  As you know, before I met you and Patty, I was overweight, unhappy with myself,embarrassed to go out and meet people, I had arthritic pains in my knees and ankles that chained me to the couch on a weekly basis, and I had no idea what I was doing wrong.  Now, only a few short months later, I'm at my goal weight, I'm happier, more confident, haven't had any knee or ankle pain and I feel as though I've become part of the community for the first time since I moved here 6 years ago. So...I thought that you could use an e-mail that you actually deserve.   Just in case you do not already know:  I APPRECIATE YOU.  I love boot camp.   Thanks, Dana

Dear Oscar,
   I want you to know that I think you are an extremely gifted trainer and
nutritionist! Your passion for health and fitness is admirable.  When I look at
Patty, and others, including myself (although I am not "there" yet!) I am in awe
of how beautiful a body can look. I am inspired!!!
    I love Boot Camp!! I have made such great progress, thanks to you!  I have been
involved with Boot Camp since September 14...not even 2 months! The bursting has
been since March.  I compared results with just one month ago,  and guess what?
I am down to 21.8% body fat from 24.1% in just 3 1/2 weeks.!! I am down almost 9
%  body fat since I began bursting in March. I have lost 13 pounds.
     I had my Cholesterol retested in February hoping it also went down (since my
poor results back in September).  I had been  battling a high LDL at 175. Now,
my LDL is 112! That is a drop of 63 points in just 5 months of nutritional
changes and fitness. My HDL shot up to 86 (from 72).  I feel so proud of my
hard work and commitment.
     I can't thank you enough for your guidance, knowledge and leadership. Not only
am I eating better and feeling better but I can do 35 push-ups  in a row and
probably push to 40!  I can do 5 pull-ups!!! thank you , thank you,, thank you!

Gratefully yours,
Marlene

"Doc, Thanks for the reply.  Your suggestion to visit Dr. Coetzee turned out
great!  He opened my eyes to eating right for my blood type ("O") and
introduced me to the Paleolithic Diet.  I gave up gluten and dairy products
immediately and things started to happen.  I started to loose those pesky
pounds and my cholesterol dropped significantly.  However the most
impressive change is that my testosterone went from 377 to 573!

I've got a regular endocrinologist watching over my thyroid so for now I'm
doing pretty good.

Thanks, You definitely put me on the road to wellness!"  Paul K.

Julie is one of our Gems! She decided to make a lifestyle change and stick to it!! Congratulations Julie you look FANTASTIC!!! Keep up the good work.

Dear Oscar,

I cannot believe, that I am not COLD?  Is that possible.  I spent so
many months, being so cold, it was very very
uncomfortable.

Can the few days that I am taking this stuff really help me?

Well, I am finally walking around the house like a normal human being.
Its  SO GREAT, not being cold all the time.
I cannot tell you how many years, I have spent being cold.  Even in the summer!
I feel like a different person.  My attitude, personality is much much
better.  I have ENERGY that I haven't had in
a very long time.I get up and do things during the day.  Let me tell
you, I was in a very bad state for quite some
time, I didn't even leave the house.   Depression is so much better.
I really am so happy.  Thanks so much.
I am so happy not to go on the statin drugs also, or go for Thyroid Medicine!

Pam2.jpg

Dear Oscar, 

“I came to the Natural Healthcare Center after being inspired to make a life change by Dr. Proodian.  He gave a lecture at our office called “Too Tired to Inspire”. He emphasized proper nutrition, exercise and stress reduction to obtain balance in your life and health, and to cure chronic illnesses. His passion for the subject made me change my diet and I had immediate results.  I saw an answer to my lifelong struggle with my weight.  I had a consultation with Dr. Proodian and he referred me to his associate Oscar Coetzee.  I have been seeing Oscar for 5 months and have lost 49 pounds.  I have been on all the “famous diets” that are out there and I have never had the success that I am having with Oscar's program.

I now feel better than I have ever felt in my entire life and have given up all medications for my acid reflux.  It has disappeared completely by changing the food that I am eating. Also, my blood glucose level was too high and I was on the road to diabetes.  After 4 months, my blood glucose level is now in the normal range.  I have much more energy and sleep better than I have for years. My knee and shoulder joint pain have gone away. My daughter is also following his program and has lost 20 pounds. Thanks to Oscar's program, I feel like a new person. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Oscar!”

Pam

Dear Oscar,

Both of us have a family history of heart disease and diabetes. We wanted to stop the cycle.
 
I have tried various diets and even hypnosis - to no avail.  I was constantly tired and approaching hypertension levels. My husband was diagnosed with sleep apnea and irritable bowel disease. We did not want to start the vicious cycle of doctor visits and endless medication unless absolutely necessary. We thought we would try to change things within our control before succumbing to the system.

The fact is, we needed to change our lifestyle entirely.  We started the program in February of 2008. With the help and advice of Oscar and the iTrimSmart program, we have learned so much more than we could ever have imagined. Nutrition and fitness play a vital role in our success.

We have lost a total of 125 pounds combined, and we are still aiming for more. We have dropped our triglyceride levels, cholesterol levels, etc.  The list goes on and on.  We have learned how to maintain our health but yet can "treat" ourselves or have "bad days" without the guilt.  We have learned how to get back on track for those days and remain successful and maintain our goals.

The education provided regarding nutrition, fitness and wellness is priceless.  We both feel fantastic and look forward to spreading the word to others that can benefit from such a fantastic program.  THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Oscar,
How can I say thank you!
In 1993 I was told by my medical Dr and Rheumatolagist, I had Fibromyalgia,no energy, a bad case of major depression that has lasted for all fifteen years, and I was getting less then 3 hours of sleep a night. Also I have reflux and very high cholesterol. All in the same year of losing my dad to lung cancer and going thru the menopausal change. The Doctors had treated me with every kind of drug used for depression, for the soft tissue inflamations, sleeping aids etc etc. If one drug did not work they either tried another or increased, on and on. My cholesterol was 254 in 1993 and by 2007 it went to the all high of 291. This was the only thing I had that the Doctors were not giving me drugs for and  I have been at high risk of a heart attack. My ratio was 7.1. I think the normal is like a 2.0.
Along with all of these ,I have had loads of back problems due to stress, a car accident when I was 17, so I have been  going to a chiroprator. Not only is he great at this but he cares about his patients (Dr. James Proodian). In January of 2008 I was in his office. At my wits end! I told him how bad I was feeling. Not only physically but mentally from not sleeping. He knew my history and knew I had enough of the Doctors and drugs. I told him I went off all medications in December of 2007 by myself. I weaned myself off. He asked me how I felt about seeing a nutritionist. I agreed because I knew I had been down all the wrong avenues.
My first appointment  in February 2008 Oscar Coetzee gave me new hope.  We discussed my reasons for being there and he helped me see that there were ways of treating my problems wisely thru what I was feeding myself. He gave me guidance for the sleepless nights. He helped me with my reflux without me realizing it. He knew how stressed out I was with my high cholesterol and May 12th I went on a 28 day program designed by him. On  June 5th I went for blood results.
My results from Oscar's guidance and help I would like to share with all my friends and with anyone who might need help in any of these catergories:
1- My reflux pain is completely gone. no medication and no pain whatsoever.
2- I am now up to 6 hours sleep and working to 7 and then 8.
3- My depression is much much better.
4- I have energy, energy energy!
5- I lost weight and it has made me feel better
6- Last but not least my cholesterol dropped 99 points. In April 2007, it was 291 and of June 5th  of 2008 it is 192. I can not wait to see my MD next month.
Thank you Oscar,  not only am I drug free, I am a lot healthier, happier then ever and feel great. I had so many good changes and am grateful to Dr. Proodian for recommending you. Your guidance gave me the strength I needed to succeed.

Hi Oscar ~
Just wanted to let you know how grateful I am that the universe aligned and our paths crossed when they did a few months ago.  


I have told you before that knowing you have the confidence that I will not only feel better, and more like the 'old' me, but that I will create a better way of life for myself, has given me back the hope that it really can happen.  Not one medical professional was able to tell me that, nevermind show me, ...in now what is almost 2years, and the words 'Thank you' really don't seem to cover it.  

Your continued guidance, and belief in me that I can do all of this  ~ coupled with Stephanie and James' additional support (not to mention the support of our little program group) ~ well, it means more than you know.

With all that being said, I thought I would share with you what happened to me today.....Today I commuted by Train and Subway to Queens.....2 trains, 8 flights of 18-26 stairs ....one way.  One month ago I could not take that trip without being totally fatigued (and somewhat nauseous) each time I ascended a flight of stairs.  Today, well today, nothing!  Not a huff, not a puff...nothing!  That I attribute to the bursting....and thought it would something you'd like to hear....  What an additional incentive to keep on going!?!?!?!  I'm thrilled!  I almost had my own little party at the 34th street station!

There are many little changes that I am logging in my 'New Life' diary...and this one will be added for today ~ fantastic!  I cannot wait to see what I can do in a month from now!

Thanks again for all of your knowledge and encouragement...you have allowed me to move from depressed and 'giving up', to believing in myself again!  

See you soon,
Angela

I’ve been struggling with high cholesterol for the past 8 years and my weight for most of my adult life. I got introduced to Oscar Coetzee's program by my brother who works with one of Oscar’s clients. After hearing the results that Gregg had in 3 months and reviewing Oscar’s web site I decided to set up a consultation with Oscar. That was back in October 2007.

My cholesterol was 247 while on cholesterol medication, without the medication it was in the high 250 range. My weight was 247lbs. After 4 months of doing Oscar’s iTRIM Smart program my cholesterol level is down to 178 without any medication. I had stopped taking my cholesterol a month before having my new blood work done.  My weight is down to 210lbs and my percentage of body fat went from 40% to 26%.

 This is the best I’ve felt physically and mentally in years. This natural approach has been a life changing experience for me in how I now look at the foods I eat.  LC

"I couldn’t imagine being on this program when I began; now I can’t imagine my life without it. Feeling good and being healthy has made such an improvement in all areas of my life. I can’t thank Oscar Coetzee and everyone at Ascenza enough. They took me from getting through the day to living my life again. I can’t wait to see what the next six months will bring!"

Remarkable story and changes to client in 3 MONTHS!:

This picture was taken of Gregg on May 25th 2007, the second picture on August 30th 2007!
Following Oscar Coetzee's Individual Science Based Diet Protocols Gregg was able to
lose 72 lbs in a healthy way and he is still going!

Yes that's right - Steph 3 Months Later!

"I am a client of Oscar Coetzee. I have been with him for a couple of months and my sister has been seeing him for roughly six months now.  Seeing all that my sister has accomplished in such a short period of time, after she struggled with her weight for so many years, I decided to give the natural approach a try.  I have had some medical issues and have had no luck with medical doctors for several years.  In the two months that I have been seeing Oscar Coetzee, my life (and my family's) has changed drastically.  Apparently, I have never been very healthy before, just over medicated.

Oscar Coetzee not only changed my families eating habits, and the way we view food, but inspired me to pursue a career in Natural Health."

Hi Clyde,

Below are links to the guys that have truly and literally saved my life. I have mentioned you to them and I would like to set up a meeting or at least a call to see how we can get you involved in the program both from a personal side (having you be in it) and from a medical aspect either as a consultant or even possibly on the board of directors.

Here is the bottom line for me. As you know, I have been on prescription meds for over 20 years for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, kidney stones, acid reflux and that is only what I remember. I started with Sandy and Oscar in April of 2007 and stopped taking all my prescription meds. (including lipitor) I got my blood work back.

My cholesterol went from 249 to 171 (it was over 300 at times)

My Triglycerides went from 588 to 108 (was as high as 800)

I have lost 8-10 pounds

Dropped 10% body fat

And the list goes on.

Please check out the attached reports and let me know your thoughts. I have copied Oscar and Sandy in case you would like to be in communication with them.





Thanks DF

Hi Oscar!


......and Oscar, while I'm sending this email, I have to say THANK YOU for helping me get back on my feet.  You're program is outstanding and my hope is that we can get everyone in this area to get started.  I'm doing my best at spreading the word... hell, if I can do it - ANYONE CAN!!   I thought you may be interested that as of this morning, I am down 31 pounds.  And that list of meds that I gave you when we first started?  Well, I'm down to half of one pill at bedtime (I used to have a box next to the bed with everything I had to take).  I only need my migraine meds occasionally, and the fibromyalgia is history!  I'm learning more about myself than any doctor has ever been able to explain and am feeling better than I ever thought possible.  I used to be too tired to do anything with my children because of all of my aches, pains, and fatigue and the fear of getting another migraine, and now I'm running around with them as if I'm a kid myself and I am excited to share the time with them!  Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

.

Thanks for everything, Oscar!  You're the best!

Hi Oscar,

As it turns out I have been doing exceptionally well. Occasionally adding fish protein seemed to help for a few dinners last week. As time passes I really feel good and didn't need to add protein to each meal. Thanks for the modification to help me stick with it. 

I have recently had numerous people in my life diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, cancer (besides my sister) and heart attack.
I feel very grateful to have met you and to work with you. Our work together is changing my life and giving me the knowledge and tools to do everything within my control to remain healthy and live a better quality life. Thank You.

Dear Oscar,

About 10 years ago, my doctor advised me that my cholestrol levels were too high.  At that time, I opted to try to change my diet a bit and exercise more.  Nothing helped and after a few more years, I finally gave in and started to take Lipitor. My family history indicated that this was also a genenic problem.  My father died of heart disease at the age of 69.   My cholestrol levels showed a dramatic drop with the medication.  However, during this time I was also suffering from very severe headaches.  I referred to them as "sick" headaches until a visit to the emergency room of the local hospital.  A follow-up visit with my doctor brought more medication for migraine headaches.  Finally, the connection was made between the headaches and the Lipitor.  I immediately opted to discontinue use of Lipitor.  At my next check-up in January, 2007, my cholestrol was 283 and my doctor again tried to convince me to take the medication.  I decided not to go that route.  In July, 2007, I joined the iTrimSmart group.  By the end of September, my cholestrol dropped to 226 with no medication, just following the protocol and exercising (bursting) three times a week.  This was the answer that I had been searching for.  Thank you!
If you need any further from me, please just let me know.    Jean M.

Dear Oscar,

When I came to you originally I had constant diarhea, I was also losing weight like crazy. It was a real concern to me and nobody was able to make it go away.

I am happy to say thanks to you - I have not had diarhea at all for many many months!
You were right on - I am "non-celiac gluten sensitive" as well as having those delayed reactions to the foods you tested me for.
My gastroenterologist ordered an ultrasound of my abdomen and pelvic areas; report just came back; all normal just as he suspected but I am relieved to have the results.
I have been very careful to not consume whole eggs, bean family, or corn (including corn syrup) in any foods.
My weight was down to 136; it is now 143 lbs.  I am still doing the Schwinn Aerodyne exercise bicycle each day and am up to 16 minutes at a time and 3 miles..
Have a great weekend and hope to hear from you.  I am so happy to share the good news with you.
Peace, J U

Hi Oscar,   
  
I wanted to thank you for helping me feel better.  Since I saw you back in November and stopped eating dairy and eggs, my energy level has dramatically changed.  It took about 3 weeks for me to see the difference and at first I kept waiting for my energy to go away. 

I don't think I have had this much energy in years.  I feel 100% better.  I also have not been sick with respiratory problems like I usually am at this time of the year.  For the first time ever, I was not sick during the holidays!  I know you had talked about after the holidays working on the yeast and parasite.  I will give it a try but I would like to get this going as quickly as possible.  My goal is to get off my meds in the next month and to start trying to get pregnant again.  So, what would the next step be?  Do you need to see me?  Thanks again.  Happy new year.
