    I have weighed close to a quarter ton at my heaviest and have lost 213 pounds, over half of my body weight! I know that I will keep off the weight and allow my body to heal itself from all of the abuse I put it through because I am following a Protective Diet.

    A Protective Diet (PD) allows me to eat foods that will naturally help me obtain and maintain optimal health and my ideal weight. I am about 40 pounds away from my ideal weight but with the support I get from the Protective Diet Living (https://protectivediet.com/pdl) Facebook group, I know that I will practice this lifestyle from here on out! It has helped me reverse GERD, sleep apnea, candida, migraines, and arthritis. I take no more prescription medications or supplements. I went from a size 8X to 12. The Protective Diet Ed classes are so much more than losing weight.

    When I was at my heaviest I felt like I had no hope for a happy life. It was a miserable existence. Since losing the weight and regaining my health with the help of PD, I am full of hope for my future. I even went back to school at 40 years of age to be a nurse. It has been a lifelong dream of mine to work in the medical field and help others. Now, I have the stamina and confidence I need to pursue my dreams again! PD was created by someone who overcame obesity to help others and I want to spread the word.

    Amazing Results

    I am so excited about the changes I’ve seen on PD. I was at my dermatologist this morning for a skin check. I have actinic keratoses (precancerous skin lesions) that have to be frozen every few years. My last visit two years ago resulted in freezing over 30 lesions on my face, forearms and hands.… Read more or comment “Amazing Results”

    I saw the movie “Forks Over Knives” in early January of 2013. I started studying the video and the written works of Doctors Esselstyn, Campbell, McDougall, Bernard, et al and knew that the WFPB was truly the best choice for healthy eating. I tried it briefly but was unable to stick to the plan. These… Read more or comment “Support and Sustainability”

    A Tale of Two Sisters

    As I pass the August 1, 2016 two-year anniversary of adopting a Protective Diet, I’m reflecting on my journey, and that of my sister, Cathy.

    I’ve been a “foodaholic” all of my life. I’m 66 now, and since I was a young girl, I’ve struggled with my weight. I’ve never been considered… Read more or comment “A Tale of Two Sisters”

    30 Day Detox

    So excited to say I’ve now completed my 30-day detox and lost 8.8lbs which for me is AMAZING! I was so hesitant stepping on my scale this morning because I’m so used to not losing a thing but I was so happy to see that scale with that loss😊. Now to put it away for… Read more or comment “30 Day Detox”

    Jackie J,

    Finally!

    Even since discovering PD a few years ago, I’ve been all over the place with diets and uncontrolled blood sugar, and recently – scary high tricycerides and cholesterol. I don’t know why it took me so long to realize that this is the best, healthiest way for my body. My blood sugar has NEVER been… Read more or comment “Finally!”
