Here are a just few of our Other Success Stories

Jean's Story

"About 10 years ago, my doctor advised me that my cholesterol levels were too high. At that time, I opted to try to change my diet a bit and exercise more. Nothing helped and after a few more years, I finally gave in and started to take Lipitor. My family history indicated that this was also a genetic problem. My father died of heart disease at the age of 69. My cholesterol levels showed a dramatic drop with the medication. However, during this time I was also suffering from very severe headaches.

I referred to them as "sick" headaches until a visit to the emergency room of the local hospital. A follow-up visit with my doctor brought more medication for migraine headaches. Finally, the connection was made between the headaches and the Lipitor. I immediately opted to discontinue use of Lipitor.

At my next check-up in January, 2007, my cholesterol was 283 and my doctor again tried to convince me to take the medication. I decided not to go that route. In July, 2007, I joined the fitness program. By the end of September, my cholesterol dropped to 226 with no medication, just following the protocol and exercising (bursting) three times a week. This was the answer that I had been searching for. Thank you!

Patti's Story

THANK YOU for helping me get back on my feet.  You're program is outstanding and my hope is that we can get everyone in this area to get started.  I'm doing my best at spreading the word... hell, if I can do it - ANYONE CAN!!   I thought you may be interested that as of this morning, I am down 31 pounds.  My migraines are better and the fibromyalgia is history!  I'm learning more about myself than any doctor has ever been able to explain and am feeling better than I ever thought possible.  I used to be too tired to do anything with my children because of all of my aches, pains, and fatigue and the fear of getting another migraine, and now I'm running around with them as if I'm a kid myself and I am excited to share the time with them!  Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!"

Doug's Story

Here is the bottom line for me. As you know, I have been on prescription meds for over 20 years for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, kidney stones, acid reflux and that is only what I remember. I started with weight loss program in April of 2007 and stopped taking all my prescription meds. (including lipitor) I got my blood work back.

My cholesterol went from 249 to 171 (it was over 300 at times)
My Triglycerides went from 588 to 108 (was as high as 800)
I have lost 8-10 pounds
Dropped 10% body fat
And the list goes on.

Thanks! — Doug F.
