T ami Turnley, owner and certified coach at Ideal Weight Loss Solutions— a standalone ShiftSetGo clinic—is com- mitted to helping people reach their weight loss goals. “My main goal is not only to help clients lose weight but to help them believe they are stronger than their emotions,” says Turnley. “I want clients to know that if they believe in themselves and become more confident in who they are, the weight loss will come.” With more than 36 years of experience in the fitness and wellness industry, Turnley pur- chased Ideal Weight Loss Solutions in 2019 and soon introduced the ShiftSetGo program to her clients. Her career began at just 19, when she opened her own gymnastics studio, which she successfully ran for 25 years. Turnley is proud to have been highlighted three consecutive years by the Baton Rouge Business Report as a leading professional woman in the area. She has been featured in InRegister , 225 Magazine , Vanity Fair , and Forbes online. Turnley also shared her story on the Life Possible Podcast and was included in the 2025 edition of Marquis Who’s Who in America , where she was named a Marquis Industry Leader. “ShiftSetGo is a more holistic way to lose

weight,” explains Turnley. “The program is tailored to help you shed pounds while pre- serving your lean muscle mass and achieving a healthier body composition.” Medically backed and scientifically prov- en, ShiftSetGo is a three-stage weight loss program focusing on nutritional ketosis and personalized coaching. It combines special- ized food products and individual support and supplements that regulate appetite, boost exercise results, and reduce sugar cravings. “Following the program’s protocol 100 per- cent, you move your body from a carb-burn- ing state to a fat-burning machine,” says Turnley. “We begin with a consultation to assess where you are physically and review your health and weight loss goals. Then we design a plan tailored to your unique needs and lifestyle.” Benefits of the ShiftSetGo program include a variety of food choices, accelerated coach- ing tools, and proven techniques to support effective results. “Clients eat three ShiftSetGo meals per day along with lean proteins and vegetables,” explains Turnley. “The plan offers more than 70 options including snacks, shakes, soups, and desserts. For clients who have allergies or sensitivities, we offer products that are glu-

ten-free, egg-free, whey-free, and soy-free— and can also accommodate specific health conditions, such as nursing mothers or those who are diabetic.” Clients can also be coached virtually through video calls and have products shipped direct- ly to their homes. “Most clients lose between two and five pounds per week, depending on their goals, and may stay in the weight loss stage for a few weeks or a few months,” says Turnley. “However, results can vary based on a client’s age, gender, activity level, and genetics.” Born and raised in Baton Rouge, Turnley is deeply connected to the community and has felt its support as an entrepreneur. She also owns TJ Rental Properties and is passion- ate about building businesses and creating opportunities. “I feel privileged to be a part of our won- derful community and help guide clients through their wellness journeys,” she says. “It’s never too late to give yourself the gift of health.” To learn more, visit shiftsetgobaton- rouge.com.
