"Rob has let go of an amazing 80 lbs. doing the PHD program. When Rob started his program, he had type 2 diabetes which was managed with metformin. His A1C was 6.7 at the end of March 2022. Rob started his journey with PHD on May 4th, 2022, and by the end of September 2022 his A1C was 5.0. At that time his doctor let him know that he was no longer diabetic, and he could stop the metformin. His doctor also reduced his blood pressure medication to half the dose as well as his statin was cut in half. Rob’s message to others is, “never lose hope!”. He says before he started the program, he never thought he would ever be able to drop weight successfully. He had so many doubts! What he’s learned about himself is that he can accomplish hard things. Once he sets his mind on doing something, he can achieve it. As he moved along the journey, he realized more and more that his end goal weight was attainable. He gained confidence in his abilities through the process of dropping the weight. Rob says knowing that the coaches are always there to support you and stand behind you with encouragement no matter what helped him to keep pressing forward. Rob mentions his faith further helped him through his weight loss journey and guided him along the way. He is very grateful for his results."

"Life before coming to PHD, was filled with lots of negative self-talk, low self-esteem, feeling completely unattractive and exhausted. Having suffered from hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s, and the many side effects of menopause, night sweats, brain fog, I felt hopeless and unmotivated. Until Dr. Ashley Lucas, and her team at PhD Weight Loss. Life now is filled with feeling confident, comfortable in my own skin, and happy. Although genetically predisposed to high cholesterol, I was able to lower my cholesterol by almost 100 points! My primary physician was shocked at how much weight not only had I lost but am continuing to maintain! He was surprised that this achievement could be done without supplements, exercise requirements, or additional pharmaceutical drugs. I feel so proud! Also, being genetically predisposed to adult-onset diabetes, I’m now fearless and have the tools to make sure that diabetes does not affect my life, as it has many of my family members. I’m no longer shaming myself; rather I’m celebrating me, and my efforts! The negative self-talk has diminished, and I feel fantastic emotionally, mentally, and physically. My menopause, and autoimmune symptoms vanished completely! I have a new lease on life! I’m also armed with the knowledge to continue my healthy weight loss and maintenance journey. I have access to the amazing PHD team anytime I need them, for the rest of my life. I feel like a champ!"

"I completely recommend this program for anyone wanting to lose weight or improve their overall health, or like me... reduce medications. I learned of this program recently, and while I did not need to lose a lot of weight (10 pounds or so), I did want to see if I could come off my blood pressure and cholesterol medications. After the first week, I have lost 6 pounds, I am eating healthier than I did before, and thanks to their abundant support and education, I understand why I am eating healthier. My Blood pressure has improved, and I have decreased one of my medications already. I am impressed with their whole team. I continue to learn more, and I look forward to what comes next. The team is very supportive, and they make me feel like they want me to succeed. Thank you PHD Weight Loss."

"I worked with the folks at PHD Weight Loss last year. At first, I was skeptical that I'd be able to get the results they suggested at my first kick-off call, but I decided to commit to their plan and work the program. Boy, am I glad I did! Between July and December 2022, I lost 65 pounds. I feel great, look great (at least I hope I do), and I no longer need any of the prescription medications I was taking before. I used to need a CPAP machine for sleep apnea at night, and I no longer need that, either. Since the beginning of 2023 I've been in maintenance mode and have easily kept the weight off. They've got a wonderful team with great tools and food products, and the coaches are very responsive and supportive. I highly recommend them."

"After losing 50 pounds in 13 weeks on the PHD Weight Loss program, I look better, feel better and my energy has returned to a level I was at probably 10 years ago. I was taking two blood pressure medications prior to losing the weight. I was able to stop taking one of them and the dosage was cut in half on the second one. My acid reflux is gone, and I no longer must take medication for that. I have been on many diets over the years, mostly calorie counting. It was always a struggle, and the weight always came back. I felt I needed to get into a structured program to lose weight at this point in my life. On the PHD program, there was no struggle. Yes, I had to make some significant changes in my approach to eating. I was not hungry and did not experience any significant cravings for carbs and sugar. The program was flexible enough for me to find what I was comfortable with and the weekly calls with my coach, Heather, provided accountability."
