“I’ve learned so much invaluable information from Dr. Thomas and the Dietitian Bianca Palumbo with this program. My goal was to learn how to make better choices in my diet and generally live a healthier lifestyle, and I have definitely accomplished this over the 12 weeks. I’ve made many healthy changes that I couldn’t have done without Bianca and Dr. Thomas’ guidance, and I’m really happy and excited about the progress I’ve made! Because of what they’ve taught me, I’ll be able to continue making more progress towards a healthier life after the program is over, not just in my diet but also in fitness, sleep, and mental health. Thank you so much!”
