How effective is Okibetonic Secrets? We've heard several awesome things about this popular fat burn secrets.

[@jgrysiak6566]

How is she doing now, it's been almost 2 years since her last disappointing interview!

[@mikefixac]

Heather not only loses 300 pounds, she has the courage to stand up and tell her story before a group of people. She's one special lady. Heather, if you read this, I want to tell you how proud I am of you. I'll bet the downvotes are the Adkins/Keto folks.

[@CHEFAJ]

I know! Who could possibly give a thumbs down?

[@CHEFAJ]

Or jealous

[@dallassukerkin6878]

Well, there are not *many* down-votes ... most likely audiophiles protesting the microphone quality as they are not interested in the tale :chuckles:. EDIT: For myself, I am getting on in the path of life so I am used to audio sounding blurred and boomy :grins: ... so I stayed and got to hear the great talk :thumbs up:.

[@ggcruise]

Heather is such a lovely person. I am hoping she can get back here again soon. Love her.

[@pawlet]

If hunger isn't the problem,then food is not the answer. .. Well said Heather.

[@CHEFAJ]

Indeed!

[@jgrysiak6566]

Then just do intermittent fasting, the extra stubborn weight just rolls off!

[@margeengleman8948]

She is wonderful. It is like she is just speaking personally to me like a friend.

[@pjbw1956]

I've just started the Plant-Based lifestyle. I haven't had any junk food for ten days now. My ankles are no longer swollen and my knees are feeling better. Apparently, the sugar and meat products were poison to my system. I have a hundred pounds to lose. I have been watching the plant=based videos on a daily basis to keep me on track. Thanks for all the valuable information

[@CHEFAJ]

Welcome! find a group that you resonate with. Support really helps. Both Heather and I have groups. Best of luck to you your journey towards optimal health.

[@as_yet_unwritten]

Good luck on your journey!

[@prizantsproducts4u]

Oh honey praise G-d for your healing!! This story made my eyes sweat for sure. G-d bless you!! My hubbs Harry and I have our own stories of why we went vegan - he for weight loss (148 lbs GONE!), me for health (reversed congestive heart failure)!

[@annamarietom9864]

Thank you for sharing your purpose of eating healthier!

[@jgrysiak6566]

My father died of congestive heart failure, my mother of a stroke & my sister of heart failure! This is why I'm doing the program, I just decided I didn't want to go out like they did!

[@StarFlower99654]

I have followed Heather way back when she was doing the rawfood diet because I was too. Funny how we both transitioned into whole plant foods and found the perfect path to health. Good job!!

[@autumn5852]

Were you lying as well though like Heather was? I’m glad she’s come clean, I think she’s a beautiful person no matter what size/weight she is (inside and out) and she’s certainly an inspiration and now she’s being honest, I feel like she can really do the healthy route this time and live and enjoy the life she wants and deserves

[@annamarietom9864]

I'm hearing more and more peeps going to whole plant foods

[@StarFlower99654]

Heather is such a great speaker. I am used to watching her on video. Have not seen her do a public talk. I am thinking she should begin lecturing with her story. People can relate to her journey. Good Job!

[@thebutterflyeffect-plant-b3067]

Thank you so much! It was so fun to have this opportunity and I am going to work on polishing my talk and hopefully I will be able to present at more places.

[@peggykelly6453]

I am 66 yrs old. I watch all your videos and also AJ’s videos. I need to jump on the bandwagon. Thank you for sharing your story.

[@jeannieharris9055]

Thank you Heather!! I've made too many excuses for too long. The life expectancy by BMI really woke me up!! If I stay at my current weight, I will be cutting my life by 7.3 YEARS!!! I am on board with reclaiming my health!! I say this as I stand here stuffing my steamed kale for breakfast in my mouth, crying. I don't know why it took so long . I've heard so much good advice but, this really woke me up.

[@CHEFAJ]

Results and excuses cannot live on the same street

THIS WAS INCREDIBLE! Now I'm more encouraged to lose the 80lbs I need to lose. I'm currently 218lbs and 5'7". Biggest take away, "How do you want to live out your life, in a broken down pinto or a Maserati?"

Heather, I need to lose this kind of weight. I have 5 weeks into this lifestyle, and 30 pounds down. I need to keep this up and continue to change my life. I totally get your before life. That was me!

Heather is so inspirational. Recently found Chef AJ and started incorporating more vegetables with rice/potatoes in my diet. Down a couple of pounds. 😊 Thank you

[@Catehint]

Wow, she was so inspirational and knowledgeable, l loved it!!😄

[@autumn5852]

It’s a great lesson, not only for Heather, but for the rest of us also, that she put the weight back on even though she was feeling so good and she was so confident, but it’s great that even though she did put it back on she’s back on track 😍

[@kazmilo8880]

[@CHEFAJ]

You are very welcome!

[@kellympearson]

So inspiring! It is so great to hear her story It gives me hope. I have about 80 lb to lose and sometimes I feel like it's impossible since I've been struggling for so many years and I've even been vegan for 4 years but not whole food plant-based and no oil. I started eating that way recently but it hasn't been long enough to see much results. I look forward to sticking to it and seeing where it can take me.

[@talks2squirrels953]

Such a lovely person. I love Heather's personality. Her sweet soul always comes through.

[@salty793]

Marvelous! Heather’s testimony is beautiful. I’m so glad she’s part of our vegan tribe. Well done, young lady! I see the opportunity for writing a book, Heather. You have figured out how to address and conquer the health killers of the Western world. You have fought-triumphantly-to overcome a food addiction, and you have sought healing that takes into consideration physical/mental/spiritual health, the care and integrity of animals, and the needs of the planet. Your message has the capacity to be very far reaching. You have an entire vegan family supporting you.

[@janfox2596]

[@elishevahgodfrey3888]

So inspirational, I wish I could have been there to ask my own questions. So much of what she's been through really resonates with me... I'm really not the only one. A question I would liked to have ask her is what about extra skin from losing all of the weight. Did eating healthy like that help the skin go back or did she have to have it surgically removed?

[@elishevahgodfrey3888]

@@cheezheadz3928 Thanks for replying, but I see that she's gained back a lot of the weight. This really makes me feel like maybe losing all this weight just isn't possible 😞

I saw she had a new video in January. I was sad to see she gained back a lot of weight, which she said was due to doing a lot of extended fasts that caused her to binge on vegan junk food a lot ☹️ It made me think of what Chef AJ says about addiction never really going away so it’s really important to be mindful of that and staying prepared with the right food and keeping your environment clean. That said, I am proud of her for re-committing, getting back on track, and eating SOFAS-free food again. Let’s root for Heather! 🙌🏽

[@Frühobst]

Two weeks ago I did a conventional carrot cake with frosting with a LOT of sugar and oil in the recipe. It was a lot even vor a conventional cake. I remember 300g of sugar. And it didnt turned out good, rubbery and dense and way too moist. It wasnt good in taste, in fact the taste sickened me. BUT I came back every 5 minutes just for another thin slice. The cake tasted terrible and still I couldnt think of anything else. I was shocked, what is happening to me?! It was the first time that I really felt like an addict with food.... i felt addicted before, but it always tasted good, but this time with the overload of sugar and oil it tasted bad and I still wanted it.... I knew that fresh carrot juice is healthy because of the gerson therapy. And I was happy to find chef aj to hear that you can loose weight eating potatos. I am drinking 2 liters of fresh carrot juice daily from a slow juicer, eating a big portion of potatos with salad and oatmeal and fruits. I cut bread, pasta, oil, butter completely, not salt. I dont know if I have lost weight, but I dont have this addiction feeling anymore for now. Horrible disgusting feeling. Lets see if it s gonna stay this way.
