    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.

    Protective Diet saved my life. Baked chips entered my kitchen in May 2013 when Julie suggested I try baking my own from a vegan weight loss group. In June 2013 I went 95% Protective Diet. I had considered my diet healthy as a 14 year vegan and gluten free for the past 5. I wasn’t… Read more or comment “Marci L”

    Since Aug ’13 Protective Diet (PD) has saved my life. PD has made it fun and easy to prepare food. Even when I’m tired, I get such joy from making dinner and lunch for the next day. My grocery bills have dropped $40/week. I especially like that PD is environmentally amazing: no palm oil, less… Read more or comment “Marci R.”

    Protective Diet changed my life!

    December 2, 2013 was the day I changed my life. I found Protective Diet the night before after someone in another plant based group mentioned the name. After going to the website and reading the details, I just knew it was for me! My highest weight, 371 here and my current weight Mid August, 2016.… Read more or comment “Protective Diet changed my life!”

    A few days from being on PD 6 months!

    After studying the oil-free, plant-based, whole food movement for around a year and a half I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes. I knew I could reverse that from all of the reading I had done. But I had tried going plant-based before and got great results regarding weight loss but I could never last more than… Read more or comment “A few days from being on PD 6 months!”
