Amanda's Story
Amanda decided to do the “EAT, DRINK & BE MERRY EXPERIENCE” as a last resort.
She’d had so, so, so many failures in the past trying to improve her health and well being.
Her doctor had indicated that back surgery was ‘in the cards’ for her. And he was referring her for an MRI…!
Amanda wasn’t happy about the prospect of surgery! PLUS she had several other health concerns.
She experienced SO, SO many great improvements, shifts and transformations during the ED~BM Experience.
And fortunately she had started the “ED~BM EXPERIENCE” before her doctor sent her for the MRI
Months later when she saw her Doctor (for the MRI results) – he was stunned!
He said – “You look FABULOUS. Keep doing what you’re doing.”
He marked a great big X through her file where it said – back surgery recommended.
He simply said – “You have NO NEED for this NOW!”
If you’re on the fence, DO IT!
Garfield the Cat once said: ‘Diet is die with a T on the end of it.’ I admit I agreed with him. I have never found an approach to ‘altered eating’ that didn’t lead back to old patterns eventually. I have no presenting health issues outside of being short in stature and wide in girth.
My dad invited 11 family members to join him in the 90 Day Experience. None of us were taking him up on his offer. I joined because I didn’t want him to do it alone. I can do nearly anything for 90 days and would gain bonus dad time, if nothing else. What I have gained is so much more. If I told you, you wouldn’t believe me. It’s hard to believe that it all started with ‘drink more water’.
The Experience gave me changes for a lifetime, which I never expected. The combination of small weekly challenges, live meetings, and the excellent coaching from Lianne makes the process easy. Monthly alumni meetings keep me engaged and focused. Doing this without a scale (no, I don’t own one), keeps my focus on gains and my list of gains continues to grow. If you’re on the fence, DO IT! It’s only 90 days and a lifetime to gain.

Tammy's Story
Tammy simply had a desire to ‘boost and upgrade’ her already good health. Plus she began noticing “niggly health issues” (like acid reflux and lower energy). She was also impressed me and others who were graduates of the EAT, DRINK & BE MERRY EXPERIENCE. She wanted her version of that same vitality too!
She leapt wholeheartedly into the program and the wins and benefits started ‘piling up quickly’. First and foremost the acid reflux stopped, and she had ‘no food cravings’. Her energy levels “soared”.
She also loved the support from the regular bi-weekly Zooms with her fellow class members (this was a huge and unexpected bonus). The coaching and follow up was also a big help to her successes.
AND she also did the program while travelling on vacation with her husband and friends. She discovered that ‘eating out’ and away from home was not problem at all. She now knew what she wanted in any setting and she felt great asking for it too.
It was SIMPLE and EASY to do. So she was able to ‘stick with it’ in any situation.
By the end of the program she summed it up with the following:
“This isn’t a diet. It’s freedom. And it feels SO good!”
“This is the best thing I’ve done for myself in years!”
I have improved self-confidence and a clearer mind…
“Prior to this challenge, I was struggling day to day. My body hurt, I felt uncomfortable in my clothes, my brain felt like I was in a constant fog. I was on the verge of tears most days. I had lost motivation & enthusiasm in life.
This program showed me how much better I can feel both mentally & physically by choosing to eat better foods.
My plan is to continue to eat in the way I have during the 90 day program because my mental health has improved & my physical health has improved too. I have less stomach issues. I have less inflammation. I have improved self-confidence.
I have improved self-confidence. I also have a clearer mind to deal with life stresses and to function better overall.”

MJ's Story
MJ’s Summary in a Nutshell:
I feel in control now.
I’m not crashing mid-afternoon…
I got my life back.
THIS IS MY LIFE NOW!!
MJ came to me saying – “it’s time for me to do something for myself. I need to do this NOW”. As she listed the ‘issues’ that were threatening her future quality of life – my heart went out to her. And I was sure she would SUCCEED with the EAT, DRINK & BE MERRY EXPERIENCE!!
Her ‘health concerns’ were definitely dragging her down. The major items in her list were: regular headaches, joint pain, lack of energy, menopause symptoms, and type 2 diabetes with the meds to control (but not ‘fix it’.)
MJ was unsure of herself. She said she was afraid it ‘wasn’t going to work for her’. The diet industry had failed her so many times she had lost confidence in herself.
MJ stepped up for herself even though..
She had doubts – She stayed – She trusted – She succeeded…AND she learned that ‘it absolutely will work for her’.
MJ’s WINS (achieved in 3 months) include:
- Diabetic – no longer
- Headaches – gone
- Energy boost
- Joint pain – no more
- Excess pounds – vanished
- Self esteem – increased
I actually feel young again!
It Came At A Perfect Time…
“Feeling confident! Lianne helped me get back on track to feeling healthy and energized thanks to the 90 day Group Challenge. Now I feel more like myself in my summer wardrobe again, full of energy and happy! This lifestyle is easy to manage in our busy family of 5, we are all eating more whole foods. I loved the online group meetings each week to feel connected through our individual and comparable stories and to stay accountable. My favourite learning through this process was identifying my 7 hungers and not choosing a “moderate” lifestyle, I learnt food freedom and how to live my best life!”
