My life before I started with the Living Proof Institute, you could say was a living hell. I had been through a series of surgeries including open heart surgery and my weight gain was like a runaway train and I knew I needed to do something. What made me say yes to the Living Proof Institute was that I had a trusted friend. She was looking so happy and she and I were like a similar amount of chubbiness, I guess. And she was reporting about her glucose levels and I simply asked her, what are you doing? Because you're looking good. And then I had an initial, I guess interview and some consultation and everything lined up for me. All their core values. I could tell this was going to be a good fit for me and them. You know, if there were any hesitations to getting started, it could have been a lack of confidence, you know, because you're diving into something, it's a big commitment and you don't know how it's going to work out. And I tried pretty much everything under the sun often really committed to it and at great expense. So that's a little scary. But the other part of it was it's not only a big commitment time wise, but it was a fairly good sized commitment financially as well. And that could have been something that held me back. But I felt my health was worth it. My journey in health with the Living Proof is Institute has been truly life changing. I started out I had gained a lot of weight, so I lost that recently gained weight and then I was able to lose a bit more and I still am losing. They introduced me to intermittent fasting which is now a way of life for me. I take to hear the Living truth approach is different in that you feel that one on one connection you have. There's weekly meetings with other people in the program that's kind of fun. If you're just starting out, you can see people who are further down the line than you are. They use a lot of science. They included an aura ring which really helps you track your sleep. So there's this really cool scale that measures body fat, not just like your numbers. What surprised me the most about the Living Institute course that I did was that I actually did lose weight. I mean just a lot of times where I've tried and tried and tried and the scale doesn't budge. But I really did lose the weight and I feel a big change in my health and well being. I also feel like I've learned things that I can stick to in the long term. It wasn't just a temporary fix. And then you know I'll leave and the weight comes back. It just doesn't feel that way at all. What also surprised me is that I never felt like I was a fat person on this program. Like it was my fault that I had gained all this weight. It was more like, this is where you are. This is what you got to work with, and let's move forward. And I think the overall feeling in that program helps you come to that place of feeling positive and that you can change. So if you're watching this, I highly suggest you check it out and join up. I. My name is Brooke, and I live in Nashville, Tennessee, in the United States.
