Read more...This picture was taken more than 25 years ago.
Newly married, I weighed 162 pounds. Not particularly happy with my weight, I was strong and could cycle wherever I wanted. Chronic knee pain from severe arthritis side-lined me from time to time, but I could live with it.
Fast forward five or ten years. Everything changed for me.
I learned about the power of plant-based foods to transform my body.
I had excellent teachers. From Caldwell Esselstyn, MD, I learned that meat raises my risk for heart disease. From T. Colin Campbell, PhD, I learned that dairy products raised my risk for cancer and type 2 diabetes. From the two, I learned that plants are right for my body.
I collected new recipes and wrote revised shopping lists for simple but tasty meals. Family holidays focused on plant-centered foods that were colorful, healthful, and delicious. The compliments keep coming. Friends and family love to spend holidays at my house. Where else can they celebrate AND eat healthful food -- at the same time?
Along with the right mix of exercise and rest, including sleep, my new plant-based lifestyle was transforming my body. From the inside out.
So how did this work for me? After a few months, my knee pain disappeared. Over 6 months or so, I lost 20 pounds. The weight just kept coming off.
Now, 17 years later, I’ve lost a total of 30 pounds, and I am still knee-pain-free. I’ve cycled tens of thousands of miles. I feel as young as ever. I am thriving!
I love whole-natural plant foods. I love the way they look and smell, and I love how they make me feel: Proud of my body. I’m full of energy, disease-free, and still plenty strong.
Now that I know the truth about plant-based food and how it loves my body, I can’t NOT know. It’s like riding a bike. Once you know, you can’t forget it. I could choose to ignore it but ignoring it doesn’t change the truth.
This is Jamie and me today.
I want you to know how it feels to thrive.
Here's your chance to lose those extra pounds and get clear of prescription meds. Get those lab numbers in check. Wake up every morning with energy for a new day.
I've helped my clients shed hundreds -- NO THOUSANDS -- of pounds. And I want to help YOU!
I'm excited to share my 5 Power Moves with you. Lose weight quickly and permanently and get the optimal health that you deserve.
Join me for 5 to Thrive. Learn my 5 Power Moves and how to put them into play in your life. These Power Moves have helped thousands of people to lose weight and have optimal health.
Schedule:
Meetings on Wednesdays: Beginning May 8th at 7pm ET
Live Q&A with me on Saturday: May 18th at 10am ET
This is a Zoom-based program with weekly interactive meetings and a Live Q&A Session. You’ll have access to me and my years of experience in helping people to lose weight and reverse chronic disease.
The price for the 6-week program is $249. But if you use the coupon code FRIEND50, you’ll get a $50 discount when you register BEFORE May 2nd.
You'll get my amazing 5 to Thrive eBook. It has key info, tasty recipes, and action tips for success. PLUS! I've created an online community where we can connect between Zoom sessions. There's no doubt that people are better at changing habits with a group's support.
Invest in yourself. You’ll be happy you did.

Our world moves at a hectic pace.
It’s easy to slip into survival mode. Getting by day-to-day without truly feeling alive or fulfilled. Not taking care of ourselves, we’re tired, over-scheduled, and unhappy.
We worry about the toll our lifestyles will have on our health.
What if we can stop weathering the storms and start dancing in the rain? What if we could shift from merely surviving to truly THRIVING?
A key step in this journey is understanding and improving our health. It starts with something as routine as our blood test numbers.
Acceptable vs. Exceptional Lab Numbers
When it comes to our health, our lab numbers are a key factor in understanding where we stand. Physicians commonly use blood tests to assess how we're doing. Lab work can identify illnesses and guide treatment plans.
But having acceptable lab numbers is different from achieving exceptional ones. Acceptable lab results may imply you're not at immediate risk for certain diseases. But exceptional numbers point to optimal health and an improved quality of life.
Decoding Blood Test Results
Blood test results often come with a reference range. These values are considered to be normal. They're based on population averages. When numbers are within this range, it usually means nothing is alarming about your health. But these ranges can be wide. They may not reflect a person's best health.
And especially troublesome is when numbers drift from acceptable into risky territories.
Exceptional numbers brighten your life
Beyond preventing illness, exceptional lab numbers bring you more energy and fewer medications. So you're better able to enjoy life and do the things that you love -- all in a strong and healthy body.
When we're talking about health, acceptable is one thing. But exceptional could unlock a new level of living well. And living well is THRIVING!
When we thrive, we are energetic and alive. We look for new opportunities to grow. We take on challenges that allow us to grow from within. We are independent and strong.
That’s what I want for YOU
That’s what I want for YOUAnd that’s why I’m offering a FREE Workshop. It’s part of my new Thrive Series:
Moving Your Numbers from Acceptable to EXCEPTIONAL

On Day #2, we'll talk about how to move those numbers -- quickly and permanently! So that you don’t have to settle for just surviving. Instead, you can THRIVE!
Schedule:
Day #1 – Wednesday, April 10th at 7pm ET
Day #2 – Wednesday, April 17th at 7pm ET
Why settle for acceptable when YOU can have EXCEPTIONAL lab numbers?
Move from merely surviving to THRIVING!
