How Gabriella Ortiz Took Control of Her Health with the Iaso™ Slimming System

When you meet Gabriella Ortiz, you can see the confidence in her smile. But what you might not see are the months of discipline, faith, and determination behind her 22-pound transformation — a journey that reconnected her with her body, her faith, and her purpose.

 

For years, Gabriella tried everything: fad diets, and countless “quick fixes.” Like so many women balancing work, travel, and family, she wanted fast results — but real life had other plans. “I was frustrated with my body,” she admitted. “I wanted the same results other people were getting, and I felt stuck watching everyone else’s success.”

 

That changed when she decided to test the Iaso™ Slimming System from Total Life Changes, a three-part approach to weight management and gut health that helps your body naturally support GLP-1 production and curb appetite — no injections, no refrigeration, and no unrealistic restrictions.

 

Starting Again — for Herself Gabriella didn’t start her journey to impress anyone. “It was time for me to be the face of my business — but mostly, I needed to do it for me.”

 

Her decision wasn’t about vanity; it was about health goals and self-worth. Traveling frequently left her bloated and tired. Her energy was low. Her self-esteem was slipping. She wanted to feel better inside and out — and she wanted to show that women in their 40s and 50s could still take control of their bodies.

 

When she began taking the Iaso™ Slimming System, she noticed a difference almost immediately. “I wasn’t hungry, but I wanted that scale to move,” she laughed. “Once I started being consistent — drinking my tea, taking my supplements, eating balanced meals — the results came.”

 

Consistency, Not Perfection Gabriella learned that transformation isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being honest. She tracked every meal, logged her exercise and steps, and kept herself accountable. “If I had a glass of wine, I wrote it down. If I skipped my walk, I logged it. You can’t lie to yourself and expect change.

 

”The Iaso™ Cleanse tea became her daily reset — helping reduce bloating and support regularity, especially during long travel days. Iaso™ Clear supported her metabolism and energy, and Iaso™ Control supported appetite control and GLP-1 production, helping her eat less without feeling deprived.

“It’s not a miracle — you still have to do the work,” she shared. “But when you follow the system, it absolutely works.”

 

Turning Pain into Purpose Before her transformation, Gabriella suffered from pain and inflammation that made even walking difficult. “I couldn’t move some mornings,” she said. “My feet and legs were swollen, my back hurt, and I felt heavy all the time.”

 

She began walking 10,000 steps a day, focusing on hydration, and incorporating movement into her travel routine. “Every step counts,” she said. “You don’t have to be at the gym to move your body.”

 

Little by little, the pain faded. Her energy returned. Her body felt lighter. “Even losing 10 pounds made a difference — that’s like carrying around a guitar! When you think of it that way, it’s motivating.”

 

A Partnership in Progress Gabriella’s husband, Jose, joined her journey, and the results multiplied. “We meal-prepped together, ate the same foods, and stayed accountable.”

 

For Gabriella, this shared journey strengthened their relationship and their health. “When your partner supports you, it changes everything. It’s not just about losing weight — it’s about living better together.”

 

More Than a Physical Transformation The physical changes were only part of the story. “Mind over body,” Gabriella said. “I had to pray for strength and commit spiritually. Journaling helped me stay focused. My faith kept me grounded.”

 

Now, at 130 pounds — her goal weight since her twenties — Gabriella feels renewed. Her body doesn’t ache, her clothes fit comfortably, and she’s proud to wear outfits that once stayed hidden in her closet. “It feels so good to finally shop in my own closet,” she smiled. “I took the tags off clothes I hadn’t worn in years.”

 

Her family noticed the change too. “My mom said, ‘Whatever you’re doing, keep doing it. You look so healthy.’ And my husband said, ‘Thank you for taking care of yourself — and me.’ That meant everything.”

 

Inspiring Women to Take Control Gabriella now uses her story to encourage other women — especially those in midlife — to believe that transformation is possible without drastic measures.

 

“We try to sugarcoat our struggles, but women need to see the truth. We’re not perfect. We’re busy. But we can do this,” she said. “It’s about being raw, being real, and being ready to take control.”

 

Her advice for anyone beginning their journey: “Start today. Be consistent. Drink your water, take your products, move your body, and stay honest with yourself. You’ll be amazed by what happens.”

 

Because the Iaso™ Slimming System isn’t just about dropping pounds — it’s about reclaiming your health, rebuilding your confidence, and remembering that your best version is still waiting inside you.
