My first Whole30 took place September 2016
-
I have performed 5 Whole30s since then

I have a mild form of a Degenerating Spine Disease

I took pain medication for years with little results of decreasing pain

Whole30 got rid of my chronic pain (since I was 6-years-old) on Day 9
-
-
I have yo-yoed with weight my entire life until my first Whole30, where I lost 16lb and have kept it off since
-
I had an Eating Disorder in college – the Whole30 program has rid my negative thoughts and relationship with food
