Trey Bonner likes to say he and his wife Jenn are “half the couple, living twice the life.”Three years ago, they started to lose weight. Jenn dropped 187 pounds in 15 months, and Trey lost 105 in 8 months. The Bonner’s methods included being on the Medifast weight loss plan. The meal replacement program includes a selection of more than 80 products such as shakes, bars and pancake mixes.

During the weight loss process, the Bonners received support and encouragement from a certified optimal health coach with the “Take Shape for Life” program. Now they are both serving in that same role for others.

"He was there to support us and provide a listening ear," Trey said regarding their coach.

The Bonners, 39, are the parents of Hayley, 17, and Ava, 7.
