She created a unique, yet simple program, to help you transform.The program was studied in a clinical trial with medical overview, including diabetes and obesity experts, in 2016 with 40 women aged 41-73. The average weight loss was 12 lbs. with a maximum of 33 lbs. over 12 weeks. The weight loss was maintained after one year, this is a big deal.
