Guest Testimonials
SHARON
I can think better, I can think clearly, and I see things more clearly, and understand them more clearly.
LINDA
My Son has some behavior issues, but the food is changing it. He's getting much better. Dealing with his behavior is just much easier now because we've changed his diet and ours.
EARL
I feel more relaxed and comfortable through the day, and sleep at night, and I just seem to have a better outlook on life in general.
KIM
It's not a fad diet, it's just a different way of eating, and once you adjust to it, you definitely see great changes and you'll want to keep eating that way because you do feel so good.
MARY
But after you start eating the way Vicki is trying to teach, you not only start feeling better, but you can lose weight and keep eating a lot of food, which I love to eat...
DENNIS
The biggest surprise I guess was, all of a sudden my weight was under control, where it was never under control all my life. I had been on a lot of diets, including the Atkins diet, and many other diets where I would feast and starve. I changed my lifestyle, changed what I was eating, and the pounds just came off, so I just let them come off.
DELORIS
It also helped me to be more..., I mean just down to earth, and not to be so stressful all the time. And I do sleep better.
ANNE
My mood is a lot better. I feel real light and bright, and not so worn down and tired and exhausted.
MICHAEL
The recipes were so easy to fix that anybody who has no cooking skills, or even knows how to use a knife or a spoon, can make these foods. They're so simple.
ANNE
I'm not getting as hungry as much, and I'm not craving the junk foods as much.
SHIRLEY
The food is delicious! I actually sometimes when you look at vegetarian recipes you think your going to be punished for trying to eat a healthy diet, but it really does taste good... really, really good.
WAYLAND
My stress level is definitely better. I'm way more patient, especially with my kids.
ARADA
The food is tasty... very tasty! I was surprised actually! That cheese dip on those tacos last Thursday was excellent.
BESSIE
This meeting has been just absolutely awesome. I loved being a part of it, and it has changed my life entirely.
ANDREA
I enjoyed it, I enjoyed it. It was not what I had expected. I think I was coming in thinking... I'm going to get lectured on, you know, be a vegetarian, don't eat meat, but that's not what it was. It was more for the sake of my health.
CHARLENE
I've noticed an increase in energy, I don't have the highs and lows that I had, and fatigue and tiredness, and I've been sleeping a little bit better.
AMARUS
A liked a lot of the stuff was presented in a very friendly way, and I learned a lot of stuff.
DOROTHY
It's made me realize how important food is, to cut down on your level of stress.
LINDA
I am less moody. I used to be a very moody person, very impatient, and I've learned how to control that now.
JIM
Because I have diabetes, I would get those highs and those lows, and those highs and those lows, and sometimes I would be very cranky. Now I've got a more even keel attitude about life in general, and my wife definitely likes it!
PAULA
I didn't think I had much to learn about nutrition. I've raised three kids, and cooked for them, but little did I know that I have lots to tell them every time I talk to them. So, I'm glad that I came, and thank you.
KIM
Definitely come and try it out. If they're in doubt, all they need to do is come and try the food that they make here. That right there says it all. I mean I go back for seconds, sometimes thirds every time I come! It's good!
EARL
It just is so beneficial. You can't imagine the change that can be made in your life, not only your health, but your spiritual health as well.
SHARON
I haven't had to take Tums this week at all. Usually I have to take Tums at least twice a week, but I have not had to do that because of my diet change.
NATASHA
I've been more focused on me and my boys. I've been feeling a whole lot better.
MARILYN
...Not only that, but as I went on I began feeling more energy, sleeping better at night, and at the end of a week and a half, I have lost 5 pounds. Something I haven't been able to do for a long time.
JEFF
Well I think my memory's better. I've had a little trouble with that, but...
SHIRLEY
I used to be the PMS queen, and now that all is really level, especially if I exercise.
RANDALL
Oh, it's much better, everything I deal with is high stress, and I think that I would not deal with it as well as I do if I didn't eat the way that I do.
SHARON
I've dropped three pounds, just in one week, and I've also increased my energy flow, and I can already feel my stress level decreasing.
PETER J., MD
The simplicity of this book is fabulous. The details are great, and yet if you want to look at the literature, in the back of the book there is a listing of all the journals. So it provides the scientific data that backs up the recommendations and it's great. It works for me and if your interested, it will work for you.
RUTH
Oh, I was so tired, and so down, and just coming here tonight had just made me feel like going home and starting right in. I bought three cookbooks, I've got the tapes, I can listen to it again, I can read my cookbooks, start my recipes, start my cooking, and I'm very, very excited about it all.
YVONNE
Since coming to these meetings, I feel more energetic, I feel healthier and I can sleep better. I move better. I feel better.
DENNIS
What's happened to me since I've adopted this way of life has been nothing short then miraculous.
ROY
You know how when you eat things, and all of a sudden you get sleepy, and all you want to do is take that long nap. I no longer have that issue, because I'm no longer eating the foods that make me do that.
JULIE
All the recipes that we have at the Lifestyle Matters Seminars are simple, and easy, and good for you.
WAYLAND
And this can definitely change your life, there's no doubt about it.
JIM
I would recommend it to everybody. If there's one thing, it's simple solutions. Go natural. It's done me great, I mean, I can hardly wait. Next year I hope to be down to 190 lbs.
MARY
You can still keep eating. It won't feel like a diet. You'll lose weight. I lost weight, and you may even think better, and think clearer, and sleep better, and wouldn't you like to sleep like a little baby at night like you used to when you were a little girl? I'am. So give it a try. Go see Vicki at her seminar, and the other thing is, it's lots of fun because your with a lot of people and your having a good time! |

Facilitator Testimonials
KEN
I'm sure that there's a lot of good things to do, but are you getting results? What I'm seeing is we're building relationships in our community, people are excited, they appreciate what we're doing, they thank us... it's a real "fill our love cup" kind of thing too. And we're getting results.
COREY
Well I think if you are concerned about people, and their health, this is the best way to go.
STACEY
The comments that I've heard from people who have attended the seminar have been that they've enjoyed the seminar, they enjoy the food, and the recipes. They really like the books. They feel that the books are very colorful, easy to read, opinion based in regards to applying it to their lives, and just very applicable.
TAMMY
In Ithaca we had 46 on opening night with 14 of those being community guests, and then next night, we've done two nights there, we had 6 new people come, which is really exciting. I think four of those were men.
MELVIN
I really appreciated the format of the program. It has enough variety, and balance, and also very practical and yet very professional. And the lay leaders were just able to adapt it accordingly to what they want to present.
KATHY
The recipes were very easy. I think that even the people that took them home, were trying them at home, and were very happy and pleased with how easy the recipes were.
SHARON
Because the foods weren't extravagant, they weren't expensive. There were things that you could go to any store and buy, and not only was it simple, the taste were so good of the dishes.
TAMMY
It has been the best I've ever done, and the response from the people has been tremendous.
ERIC
The people that came to the meetings, they told us that this was one of the best programs that they had ever been to. They told us that the information that we presented was well thought, was timely...
BOB
It was phenomenal. It was making friendships. Making friendships that already we knew would last all the way through our next Food For Thought seminar. They said, "we are signing up for the next one."
ERIC
The people that came to our health presentations were so excited that even before the lectures were over, they wanted to know when the next presentation was because they were benefited so much by it.
BOB
In one of the group sessions I was in, in the first meeting, one of the people from the community said, "you know, these meetings are so good, I'm going to go home and invite everybody I know to come here, and if they can't pay, I'll pay for them.
SHARON
They were coming up going, "Can we get more of these cook books? Can we get more of them? These are great! We want to be able to give them for Christmas gifts and stuff."
COREY
A lot of the people are saying that the $25 is inexpensive compared to what they're getting.
MARILYN
It has been so exciting! This program has done something that I've not seen other programs accomplish.
TAMMY
My first response was, "I can't do this, I'm too nervous." And when I got there and they had everything written out for me, word by word, what I needed to say, there were really neat visuals to be able to show the people, and everything was done for us. All the materials, the handouts, everything was so easy.
PAULA
What I liked best was that the plan was already spelled out in the kit. We didn't have to do much thinking. It was all planned for you, telling you exactly what to do and when.
VALERIE
It's nice to have it all just written out for you. The presentations are easy to do because the visuals are there. You've got handouts to prompt you; it's just been really a fun program to work with.
TAMMY
And the one thing I really love about this is it's not a condemning, judgmental way. It's telling people; you can have energy, have a better quality of life. It's not telling them, you can't eat this, and don't do that. It's all positive, and that been a tremendous thing, and that's something I can get excited about being a part of.
BOB
If you've got any question at all about whether you should do a seminar like this or not, I would just like to add my weight, the weight of my opinion, and tell you go for |
