“My energy is soaring!” — Adrienne Farr
Adrienne’s busy career made it hard for her to follow a healthy diet. But when her scale topped 200 and her knees and back were aching, she knew it was time to a change. She told us that she had always battled her weight. In 21 days, THE DIGEST DIET helped Adrienne lose:
18.5 pounds
9.5 inches
And more that 7% of her body fat!
She says her back no longer aches and her knees feel better. She tells us, “I never thought it was possible to lose so much weight so quickly in such a healthy way. This is something I can do for the rest of my life.
“What’s better than seeing great results in a short 21 days?” — Wayne Nobes
Like so many, Wayne gained those “happiness pounds” in the first year of marriage. Too many nights of takeout and eating out left him overweight. But when his wife became pregnant with their first baby, everything changed. Wayne wanted to start fatherhood off on the right food, and on the THE DIGEST DIET he lost:
10 pounds
6.25 inches
And 7.5% of his total body fat
Today Wayne tells us he is feeling good from eating all the nutritious food. He says he is sleeping better and has more energy, which is definitely going to come in handy when their baby is born. He is thrilled that he can enjoy so many of the foods and flavors he loves, while still seeing a noticeable difference in the mirror.
“I can zip my size 10s!” — Dianne Rohan
Diane told us that she had battled her weight all her life. But once she hit her early 40s, nothing worked to help her lose. Her own doctor said, “You are middle aging!” Unwilling to accept that, she tried THE DIGEST DIET and in 21 days she lost:
11 pounds

When my daughter, Sophie, was admitted to a college we were very happy, but a little worried about becoming empty nesters. I knew I had to do something to help myself adapt, starting with the summer before she left.
Sophie had a pack of colorful T-shirts. I knew she wouldn’t wear them any more, so I decided to make a quilt out of them for her bed at college. It focused my energy, and also let me relive some memories. I tried to work on the quilt when Sophie wasn’t at home----which turned out to be often. She was very busy with her friends. Even when she was around, her door was shut more than usual. I felt a bit hurt. After all, we didn’t have much time together before she went to college, I was already missing her, and she hadn’t ever left yet.
When we arrived at the college, a wave of emotion flooded me. I tried to hold it back, but Sophie saw it in my face. She took a big red book from her bag. “I made this for you, Mom,” she said. Then I knew why she had been staying behind a closed door that summer. It was an album of photographs documenting the life of our family over the last 17 years.
I broke into tears. Some of it was sadness at having to let her go, but some of it was joy. I knew that our connection was more powerful than ever, and that we’d always be connected by the strongest of threads, the love that went into every stitch of her quilt and every photo of my album.
In Sophie’s dormitory I unfolded the quilt on her bed. For a moment she was speechless. Then she threw her arms around me. “Mom, I love you,” she said. One of her new friends was calling her outside. Sophie turned, and I let her go.
