PURE PROACTIVE REALLY WORKS!!! Let me start off by saying, that I have battled my weight my whole life. I finally had it in 2004. (I was 25) and I joined weight watchers. All my foods became points and everything I ate was low calorie and processed. I ate about a 1200 calorie diet a day and I worked out like crazy. I worked out 5 days a week for atleast an hour a day and sometimes 1 1/2 hours. I was also very active on the weekends at the lake wake boarding, riding jet skies or riding 4 wheelers for hours. I lost about 90lbs in 1 1/2 years. I kept the weight off for 7 years. After losing all this weight my cholestrol was still borderline at 199 and the Dr. told me not to worry about it that it was just hereditary. Then I decided I needed to stop smoking. OOHH boy 60lbs came on so fast my head was spinning and I was scrambling on what to do. I was still exercising 5 days a week and eating just like I was before. I have been trying for 3 years now to get this weight off and all I keep doing is gaining. I have been to countless doctors, had lots of blood work done, and they found nothing. I've tried so many other popular programs. Nothing worked! I was getting very depressed about it and was considering weightloss surgery. Then my neighbor told me about PURE PROACTIVE and boy was I skeptical. I was thinking that this is going to be just another waste of money. I called and talked with Alexa and she told me she knew this would work for me. I decided since there was a money back guarantee I'd give it a shot. Then 3 days later Rachel called me to see if I had any other quesitons and to walk me through the program. She was so encourging and I was so negative. Rachel was so confident that this would work she said just give it a week and if it doesn't work you will get your money back...But I know this will work!!! I got everything, was planning my meals, and was really nervous. Remember I was used to processed CRAP so all this whole food organic stuff scared me. I explained to Rachel that I didnt like most of the food that was allowed. She helped me figure out how to plan around things and how to try new things. Level 1 was hard for me due to the way I have ate in the past...junk!!!! I lost 15 lbs and boy was it worth it to me. Level 2 I went into that with a lot more confidence, with Rachel's encouragment, that I could do this and it was so EASY for me. I lost 6.6lbs Level 3 I lost 6 lbs. Rachel was right there by my side the whole time and after level 3 I was sad..I felt like I was loosing a best friend!!! I was a little unsure about the coaching at first but it is the BEST thing! I really enjoyed having Rachel encourage me and always there to answer all my quesitons. I am currently continuing my healthy life style and have lost 28 lbs and 31 inches! in just 11 weeks. I also had lab work done and my cholesterol is now 155 (so it wasn't hereditary it was what I was eating!!!) I still have about 30 lbs to loose but I feel confident, in what I learned, that I can do that now!!! Thanks Rachel and thanks Dr Ferro. Because of both of you I will live a longer, happier life!!!
