Lake Grove Resident Selected to Best Life Panel

A Lake Grove woman was selected to be on the first “Best Life Member Panel,” celebrating the five year anniversary of a weight-loss program based on the best-selling book “The Best Life Diet,” by Bob Greene.

Marie Conway has been a member of Best Life since July 2009 and has lost 30 pounds since joining. Her family of four, according to Best Life, lost an aggregate of 116 pounds last year.

“Since joining the Best Life I have been transformed in mind, spirit and body,” she said on the Best Life website.

For the first half of 2012, the Best Life Member Panel will offer advice and encouragement, and share their progress to help others on their journey to the best life possible, according to the company.

 “I am so pleased to announce the first-ever Best Life Member Panel,” said Greene, in a statement. “Their unfailing support and sharing of knowledge that goes on within the Best Life community have been essential to the panelists’ continued success as well as the success of the program. Now others will be able to benefit from the panelists know-how and personal experience.”

The members come from a variety of backgrounds, have collectively lost almost 440 pounds and have more than 25 years’ combined experience with the successful Best Life program, which launched in the winter of 2007 on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
