Chrissy, 49, of Niederwald, Texas, loves her 11 grandkids. She hated that being overweight kept her on the sidelines – she wanted to be the fun grandma!
Always hiding from the camera and family photos, one day her daughter said that her grandchildren might not even remember her, and that did it. She decided it was time to shed the extra weight.
After an incredible weight loss journey, Chrissy has lost 80 pounds and dropped five dress sizes! Her grandkids tell her she looks younger and happier now, and she agrees! “I’m out there with them playing,” she says. “We go to the beach and we do things that they want to do, because I can.”
“My life is a hundred percent different now that I’ve lost the weight,” Chrissy says. We got to meet her a few weeks ago when she came to our Ship Shape Challenge winner retreat in Park City, Utah. Watch her video to hear her story!

Way to go Chrissy! You are such an inspiration 🙂 Your love for your kids and grandkids is amazing!
Aww thanks Megs! You are so sweet!
Hi..congrats on your success! You look amazing! I just want to be sure before I buy Ideal Shake, it helps with losing weight when working out and eating clean? U really want a good meal replacement. I know some people who sell and use Shakeology but it is way to expensive for me! Ideal Shakes seem very good and “Ideal” for me. Your response is greatly appreciated
Ideal Shape will definitely help you lose weight! Nutrition is a big part of it, as well as exercise!
I have friends that sell two other shake plans and I chose to go with IdealShape, and I am so happy I did!
I also want to be the “FUN” Grandma ! Getting started today and awaiting my shipment !! A close friend shared some products she had purchased to let me get started while waiting on my order to arrive. Very Excited to see if this works for me.
It will work Margaret, but it starts by believing it! If you haven’t already, think about purchasing the THINK book by David Meine on the Ideal Shape website. Good luck in your journey, you’ve got this!
Congratulations Chrissy! I so needed to read your story today. We are the same age – but I am still sitting on the sidelines. You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing and encouraging with others.
Thanks Kim! It’s time to join your life! Just get up and move, walk, crawl, swim and eat good nutrition! If I can do this, anyone can! IdealShape will help you each step of the way!

You’ve got this Kathy! If I can do it anyone can! The biggest obstacle was my dedication to it. Now, it’s my way of life. I don’t even think about it, exercise and good nutrition are up front in my brain!
