Dennis Wong and YOR Health Spotlight Marie Stephen

“People don’t enjoy exercise because of the lack of energy…” These words, spoken by YOR Health customer Marie Stephen, perfectly describe the biggest challenge people face when trying to take control of their health, says Dennis Wong. The YOR Health co-founder explains that chronic fatigue is more often than not brought on by a lack of nutrition.

Marie Stephen’s weight climaxed at greater than 200 pounds – around 60 pounds more than her petite frame could handle. According to Dennis Wong, YOR Health products have helped Marie wake up each day with the energy and drive to go to the gym. Her favorite products include YOR CompleteBurn and YOR Shake, says Dennis Wong. This YOR Health product combination promotes weight loss while giving the body the vitamins and minerals it needs to push forward.

Before finding out about Dennis Wong and YOR Health, Marie spent countless hours at the gym, desperately trying to fit in as she started college. However, Marie gained 20 pounds during her freshman year. With YOR Health, Marie has replaced many of her poor eating habits. For breakfast, she has a YOR Shake with two YOR CompleteBurns. Lunch consist of a salad followed by another YOR Shake for dinner. Marie has started eating fruit and granola bars instead of candy and ice cream for snacks.

Dennis Wong and YOR Health Offer New Beginnings

Alejandra Estrada’s weight had bloomed to an unhealthy 144 pounds, says Dennis Wong, YOR Health co-founder and motivational speaker. However, Estrada was determined to reclaim her figure, despite the many obstacles in her path.

A rocky road

According to Dennis Wong, YOR Health customer Alejandra Estrada knew her weight was becoming a problem. She wasn’t happy with how she looked and was committed to losing the extra pounds. Estrada knew it would not be easy, but began jogging around her neighborhood four or five times a week. Unfortunately, despite her dedication to physical activity, Estrada had one weakness: food. She was particularly fond of ice cream and found that she gave in to her cravings every afternoon.

Running out of time

Through running, Estrada managed to lose three or four pounds over the course of several months. However, this wasn’t acceptable to Estrada, given the amount of time and effort she put into exercise, says Dennis Wong. YOR Health made an appearance in Estrada’s life just when she thought she was going to have to work twice as hard. Estrada realized it was more difficult to lose weight as she got older and was nearly convinced that nothing was going to help. Dennis Wong and YOR Health quickly changed her mind.

Dennis Wong: YOR Health Customer Reclaims Life After Tragedy

Charlotte Strauss is a lively young lady from Palisades Park, New Jersey. However, many people don’t realize that she only recently “learned” how to walk. According to Dennis Wong, YOR Health co-founder, Strauss was in a near-fatal car accident at the age of nine. Over the course of the next decade, she was unable to walk, play, and run like others. In her eyes, being different was the worst thing that could happen.

Dennis Wong says YOR Health came into Strauss’ life just after she regained her ability to walk at the age of 19. It took several months of physical therapy, but Strauss was no longer helpless and her confidence began to return. She finally quit using food as a way to bury her emotions.

Once Strauss had her physical abilities back, she worked tirelessly to regain her strength. However, after a decade of being stagnant, she could barely maneuver under the weight of her own body, says Dennis Wong. YOR Health was Strauss’ way out of depression and into a healthy lifestyle. For five months, Strauss drank a YOR Shake for breakfast every day. She supplemented her daily nutrition with YOR CompleteBurn and started walking for exercise. She lost a total of 36 pounds and is now boasting a lean 110 pound frame.

Dennis Wong of YOR Health Discusses Customer Richard Peralta

Richard Peralta found health and healing with YOR Shake, says Dennis Wong of YOR Health in the following brief interview.

Q: What was Richard Peralta’s main fitness goal in his teens?

Dennis Wong, YOR Health: Richard wanted what many young men want,  awe-inspiring six pack abs. From the time he was a junior in high school, Richard spent countless hours each week on what he calls “abnormal movements.” Despite a grueling routine of neck-cramping crunches and backbreaking situps, Richard never saw any definition in his abdomen. When he was 25, Richard found a new style of abdominal exercise that gave him the results he’d always dreamed of. His happiness was short-lived, however, thanks to a devastating accident that left him unable to exercise for two years.

Q: Did Richard’s accident affect his overall well-being?

Dennis Wong, YOR Health: It took two years for Richard to get the okay from his doctor to begin an exercise routine. During that time, Richard became depressed and turned to food for comfort. As a result, he gained substantial weight, developed numerous bad habits, and lost his cherished six-pack.

Q: How was exercise different after Richard recovered?

Dennis Wong, YOR Health: Once Richard got back to the gym, he realized he needed more time to recuperate after even a short run. He fell into a vicious cycle of “rest and recover” which stifled his ability to achieve any significant physical changes.

Dennis Wong: YOR Health Inspires Change for Junk Food Junkie

On the surface, Albert Leong had it all: a secure job, boyish good looks, and a thriving social network. But, according to Dennis Wong of YOR Health, Albert had health problems hidden just out of sight. Due to time constraints, Albert’s breakfast each day consisted of whatever was ready at the doughnut and coffee shops on his way to work; lunches were scrounged from vending machines in the break room.

Albert’s poor nutrition led to substantial weight gain and chronic fatigue, says Dennis Wong. The YOR Health cofounder explains that Albert was likely suffering from a vitamin deficiency. By 2008, Albert could barely get out of bed each morning and his 5’2” frame carried the weight of someone much taller. At almost 160 pounds -- clinically obese for a man Albert’s height -- Albert realized his health was going downhill and fast.

Dennis Wong says YOR Health YOR Essential Vitamins, YOR Shake, and YOR CompleteBurn impacted Albert’s life almost instantly. From day one, Albert realized that he could start his morning off right in as little as two minutes with YOR Shake. This one small change encouraged Albert to start working out again and made him pay closer attention to what he put in his body.

Today, Dennis Wong says YOR Health customer Albert Leong carries healthy snacks with him and he no longer relies on the vending machine for quick energy. He has lost 17 pounds of fat and is no longer afraid to show off his now-chiseled abdomen. More importantly, Albert has realized that he only has one body and that he must nourish it with whole foods and real nutrition.

Dennis Wong | YOR Health Helps NY College Student Drop 30 Pounds

Kevin Cummings was your typical college student, often stuck in all-night study sessions and eating whatever free meals he could get from the campus cafeteria, says Dennis Wong. The YOR Health co-founder explains that Kevin’s new sedentary lifestyle and unlimited access to food caused the young man to gain 30 pounds by the end of his senior year. In the following post, Wong explains how Kevin got his body back.

Q: How did going to college change everything for Kevin Cummings?

Dennis Wong, YOR Health: As a teenager, Kevin was always active. He was involved in football, ran track, and was a promising baseball player. However, athletics was not Kevin’s main focus. A scholar at heart, Kevin buckled down on his studies when he entered college. He had never considered it, but Kevin was suddenly sitting still most of the time and eating unconsciously.

Q: Did social media have an influence on Kevin’s desire to lose weight?

Dennis Wong, YOR Health: Each day when Kevin checked his Facebook, he was bombarded with memories from previous years. By the time he was a senior, his “On This Day” Facebook app did little more than remind him that he had gained a substantial amount of weight.

Q: When did Kevin get involved with YOR Health?

Dennis Wong, YOR Health: Kevin had friends who were just getting started as representatives when he returned home from college. On their recommendation, Kevin ordered YOR Shake and YOR CompleteBurn.
