This is the best program I have ever worked with. I first found out about it when I was a personal trainer with Golds Gym- they helped so many of my clients lose weight, get off medications, and over all increase their energy.
Years after I stopped personal training I came into some emotional hardships and ended up gaining weight and falling into a depression. I knew that losing weight and eating healthier was one of the things I could control in my life and that it would domino onto the other problems I was facing.
My coach was Emily, and she was absolutely amazing. She listened to what I was going through emotionally and helped me stay motivated and on track.
The best part about this program is that it didn't feel like a diet or something I just had to get through. It became a lifestyle change for me. I wasn't waiting for the time to end so that I could stuff my face with all the food I had been not eating...I was actually happy with the foods I was eating on this program because they truly hit the spot.
The first couple of days are a transition, but then it becomes second nature. I did both level one and two and I have to say that I really understand what foods my body does well with and responds to with weight loss and preventing discomfort.
I lost 10 lbs in level one, and another 5-6 in level two. The weight keeps dropping and my energy is going up, and my anxiety is going down. I sleep better and have more motivation to cook and exercise.
The app has great food ideas, allows you to see your progress, and links to your fitbit :)
Having a coach like Emily kept me aware of what I was reaching for each day. It was also nice having a support system like her to talk to when I was craving food I knew I shouldn't, and having her provide me with alternatives to get past the cravings.
The adrenal cocktail was such a great addition to the program too- Helped me lower my stress levels and fall asleep and stay asleep. My stress during the day decreased and I was able to focus on what was important.
The Tuesday calls were also wonderful to listen to because they gave me insight into the science behind Dr. Ferro's gut health system, allowed me to hear inspirational stories. Connected me with people that are also doing the program. And best of all was open for questions directly to him!
Now that I finished level one and two, I have no problem continuing eating my tasty healthy foods :) Like I said, it became a lifestyle change and I enjoy my fruit snacks and mason jar salads. So colorful and delicious that people are even asking if I can make them for them too!
This program is about gut health, but it comes with SOOOO many benefits that it truly is a program for anyone! I would recommend this to my friends, family, and people I just met.
Thank you Betr Health!!!! :) and Thank you to my coach Emily!
