Believe it or not, I started the program on Memorial Day and lost over 55 lbs. by Labor Day! Today, I continue to lose weight, my cravings have disappeared, I am beginning to be active again, and I look forward to having a med-free life for as long as I possibly can.
One last thing - the first three days of what I consider
to be the “water bridge” are hard. Your body is in withdrawal, craving sugar, carbs, and more carbs - but the moment you break the wall, you discover your desire to eat is not coming from the stomach but from your brain. I strongly recommend seeking guidance from Dr. Khanna, her nurse Monica, and the Whole Health team if you are depressed, desperate, or hopeless about losing weight - believe me, the results are long-term, and your life will change for the better in no time!
