About Me

Marsha S. Abramson has experienced much in her life bringing her to her current position as Weight & Life Coach as well as a Motivational Speaker.

At the age of ninteen she weighed 200 pounds and lost over sixty pounds on a weight loss program. Prior to that shame and embarrassment kept her in the role of an active observer rather than an active participant.  Marsha knows first hand not only the struggle of losing weight, but also what the burning desire to do so feels like. Ms. Abramson is also familiar with the emotional issues and obstacles that stand in the way of weight loss.  She has been able to not only recognize them but has developed strategies for dealing with them other than food.

Ms. Abramson has worked as a leader for Weight Watchers in both New Jersey and Manhattan for many years.  She has led groups in corporations and local communities varying in sizes from 15 people to well over 100.  It was through the encouragement of her former clients that she branched out into the coaching field where she has successfully motivated individuals to lose weight, gain self-confidence, self-acceptance and a healthy lifestyle.

Ms. Abramson is also on the Board of Director’s for FREED a foundation to help those with Eating Disorders. She has lobbied in Washington D.C., representing the National Eating Disorder Association to lobby in favor of the Insurance Parity Bill. In addition to her leader training for Weight Watchers she has also successfully completed training as a facilitator for the Young President’s Organization. She  has facilitated a Bereavement Support Group through a non-profit organization and Chaired their Fund-Raising Activities and is currently volunteering her time and expertise as a Weight Loss Coach with the Heart to Hearts Organization in Hamilton, NJ.

She has studied with The Coaches Training Institute and with Jeremy Robinson of Executive Coaching in New York City. Ms. Abramson has completed her Certification as a Nutritional Consultant and is an active member of New Jersey Association of Women Business Owners, the New Jersey Profesionnal Coaches Association, and the International Coaches Federation.
