Belle Petite

Tanya Hunter

Over the years I spent in regular employment, I longed to run my own business. I always knew there would be lots of hard work involved, but the independence really appealed to me, so about seven years ago, I went into my own business for the first time. From my ten years in sales, I knew it had to involve a product that offered real value to customers, and not another me-too product just for the sake of being in business.

About four years ago, my thyroid began to give me trouble, causing me to gain 20 lbs pretty quickly. Like many women I know — often too busy to get enough exercise and eat the right food at every meal — I was looking for an effective solution, and not just another fad diet. It was then I was introduced by a trusted friend to the concept of hormone-based loss programs. A few months later, I had lost the 20 lbs and probably another 5 more, bringing me to that happy weight I wanted.

I don't do weights or anything, but am very active — lifting kids, groceries, etc. and being on the go all day — so I've always felt physically strong. What struck me most was that throughout this program, I retained my lean body tissue, and my energy actually increased. For me, that was the biggest difference between this program and other diets I had tried in years past. The program also got my thyroid back on track, bringing me back to the energy levels I had in my teens, but without any starvation-induced mood swings, food cravings or any other side effects, which was a huge relief. It was like, as my weight dropped, I never had the weight in the first place.

The whole experience convinced me that this new product and program, having worked so well for me, was something I wanted to introduce to and share with others.

And so, I started the Belle-Petite company. I'm bringing this effective and compelling program to others like me who have had countless disappointing experiences with one type of diet or another. We know that people want something that works, is easy, and keeps the weight off, and this program delivers that.
