Kristine before and after losing more than 40 pounds with personalized weight-loss support from TeleHealthNP

For years, Kristine felt caught in a familiar cycle: life became busy, convenient food took priority, and strict diets were too difficult to maintain. As a working wife and mother of two active boys, she needed an approach that could fit into her real life, not another short-term plan built around extreme changes.

With personalized support from TeleHealthNP, Kristine lost 40.6 pounds in four months. More importantly, she found an approach that helped her feel supported, confident, and encouraged throughout the process.

Balancing Work, Family, and Her Own Health

Kristine is an Oregon native who loves traveling, spending time outdoors, and being with friends and family. But between work, family responsibilities, and two boys involved in sports throughout the year, her schedule rarely slowed down.

Like many busy parents, Kristine often chose meals based on convenience. Over time, processed foods and inconsistent eating habits became a regular part of her routine.

She also recognized that her relationship with food went beyond a demanding schedule. Stress eating and eating out of boredom had contributed to the habits she wanted to change.

Looking for an Approach She Could Sustain

Before coming to TeleHealthNP, Kristine had not tried weight-loss medication. She was, however, very familiar with yo-yo dieting.

Again and again, she encountered plans that required drastic lifestyle changes. They might work briefly, but they never felt realistic enough to maintain alongside work and family life.

Kristine wanted something different: professional guidance, a plan personalized to her needs, and ongoing support from someone she trusted.

Feeling Supported Throughout the Process

From her first consultation with Debra Johnson, FNP, Kristine felt comfortable and understood. Rather than being handed a generic plan and left to navigate the process alone, she received individualized care and continued opportunities to check in, ask questions, and make adjustments.

“Debbie has essentially changed my life for the better. After meeting Debbie in our initial consultation, I felt extremely comfortable and supported with my journey. The monthly check-ins are so appreciated, and the continued support is a personalized, catered service you won’t find anywhere else.”

That consistent provider relationship became an important part of Kristine’s experience. Her care was designed to work with her life—not require her to put everything else on hold.

Kristine’s Results

After four months, Kristine had lost 40.6 pounds and felt a meaningful difference in how she felt day to day.

“In four months, I have lost over 40 pounds, and I feel amazing.”

Kristine’s story is a reminder that weight-loss care does not have to be built around shame, extremes, or trying to manage everything alone. The right plan should account for the realities of a person’s health, responsibilities, and everyday life.
