"This has not only changed my life, it has changed the habits and attitudes
for my family. This has impacted every facet of our lives.
It is truly an example of the old saying, “Give a man a fish, you feed him for
a day. 'Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.'"
~ Jeff A.
"I would highly recommend this to anyone who is seeking to change
their life. This is a great opportunity to learn and grow and discover the best life has to offer."
~ Judy C.
"I don’t even know if I can completely express
just how much this has changed my life! I have a completely different
view of food now. I don’t think of it simply as something to eat because
I am hungry. I have a new mindset about how food fuels my body and how to
combine different foods in a way that will fuel my body to keep up with the
demands of my life. As you know, our whole family is on board and the
kids are loving it! They are sleeping better and are less cranky without
the processed foods and so much sugar."
~ Lisa
A.
"Most importantly, I have made conscious mental changes that have improved my
family life. I try not to take my wonderful husband and daughter for
granted ~ I appreciate the time I am able to spend with them. I also have
realized what a huge role model I am for my 6 year old daughter and that the
choices I make impact not only myself, but most importantly, the changes will
impact my daughter’s choices. I now think before I act and just try to be
a better person, knowing that I will get rewarded in a million ways."
~ Lisa S.
"This has changed my life by changing the way I view myself and the
world around me. The simple phrase “Honor God with your body” has made me
realize that by not taking care of my body with exercise, food by God and peace
by God, I am in fact dishonoring God."
~ Roxanne P.
"For me, the journey began as one for weight loss but ended with one that has
helped me to increase my relationship with God and understand his plan for
me. I learned how the body uses nutrients but more importantly, I learned
how to nourish my soul. I am more aware of my value in my life. This
process is ongoing for me ~ but this has helped me to realize that I am not
alone. Overall, this has helped me gain confidence and the
realization that I am valued in God’s eyes and that he truly loves me."
~ Seema C.
"I feel like I’ve finally gotten a road map to a better
life. I’ve been losing weight and feeling better, more alive. I’ve
also found myself feeling less stressed out with the daily grind. I’ve been
able to take charge of situations which would normally send me into a panic."
~ Steve H.
"This program has helped me to understand what is important
in life ~ not to be stressed out about trying to keep up with everything and
everyone."
~ Trudie A.
"I feel I now have a reliable plan to live a healthy
lifestyle for myself and my family. I get to make healthy choices ~ or
not, and it all falls into the plan. This has given me a lot of freedom ~
especially to tell people I’m not on a diet, I’m just making healthier choices,
which feels great. This is the first time that God is my partner in what
I am doing with my body and my life. I now have the habit of turning to
God for strength instead of trying to do it by myself."
~ Wendy W.
"It helped to realize I’m not only struggling with weight
issues, time management, etc, others are as well! It helped me realize
just a little improvement is better than not attempting to make improvements at
all!"
~ Mary S.
