I am a 31 year old business man (manager of Bangz Salon & Wellness Spa) in a worn body of an NCAA collegiate wrestler. Dieting has never been an issue for me. In fact, dieting has always been part of my life. So, when I was met with the challenge of detoxing for two weeks with Back to Basic Wellness, I thought to myself, “This will be a breeze. Count me in!”

Through this healthy detox, I learned how to eat right! I learned how to prepare food and eat ALL day without feeling zapped of energy, unfocused, or depleted of nutrients. I am very active , so this was important to me. The way Back to Basic Wellness helped me was to tell me allllll the food I CAN eat. There’s nothing worse than doing a diet and being told all the things you CAN’T EAT! Back to Basic Wellness takes the high road and truly supports their clients through the transition from poor eating to healthy living!

So here I am, Israel Cronk. I began the detox at 212 lbs. I dropped to 193 lbs after the two week detox. Now, almost two months later I fluctuate between 194-196 lbs. This longevity of the effects of this detox are only possible through the good eating habits Back to Basic Wellness has taught me. THANKS BACK TO BACK TO BASIC WELLNESS!

Kathy and Ellen are two incredible women who have taught me more about Nutritional healing than I ever learned in medical school. They have not only provided me with the skills on how to choose healthy foods but more importantly how to make and cook them quickly and deliciously. It is so empowering to know how to prepare greens, grains, shakes, muffins and gluten free/wheat free alternatives for myself and my family. Before Kathy and Ellen I would not have known where to begin. They make it easy and fun!

Back to Basic Wellness nourishes your body and soul.This has been one of the best choices I’ve ever made.

Healthy body health mind,

I have seen remarkable improvements as a direct result of working with Kathy and Ellen. As a business owner, I have a crazy schedule and there just never seems to be enough time in the day. Even worse, I was shot by 3 PM each day- so I pretty much “lost” 2 hours a day. Within weeks of working with Back to Basic Wellness I gained those hours back. I have improved my personal productivity by at least 25%….and GREAT!

This past 1½ years have been the most successful of my 13+ years in business…I owe much of that to Kathy and Ellen who have helped me optimize my routine, eating habits, exercise regimen, supplements, etc. This has resulted in better health, focus, energy, overall wellness—and business results. I continuously recommend Back to Basic Wellness to friends, fellow entrepreneurs and family members.

I’ve never felt better mentally or physically. Even though I’ve been eating quite health consciously for the past few years, I still had many preconceived notions about what was good for me. My goal is to eat healthy foods, BUT they must also taste delicious. Not only are these new dishes that I’m cooking appealing to my discerning taste buds, but my kids are “stealing” my leftovers! I even lost 10 lbs without trying… AND I’m never hungry. Since changing my eating habits,my cholesterol has dropped 10 points, my HDL (the good cholesterol) has jumped 9 points and the LDL has decreased by 18 points.

Besides the food component, there was also the mental aspect of what self-care means. I became aware that I can’t have healthy relationships with others (which are what life is all about) if I don’t take care for and love myself. I learned to nurture myself, which led to improved attitude, a happier state of mind. When you know you’re doing all that you can do to improve and take care of yourself, you can’t help but feel good about yourself. It’s now a wonderful life!

I don’t do change easily. Kathy and Ellen introduced me to many new foods (veggies and grains I had never heard of before). I did lead a sheltered food life. I have more energy than ever, I have never felt better mentally or physically, even lost weight and the kicker is I am satisfied with everything I am eating and not hungry. My husband Frank loves to try all the new dishes I am cooking, my kids want to know why I waited till they were grown and out on their own before doing this. Without their help none of this would of been possible for me on my own. This is only a small part of the changes they have made in my life.

I feel great… I wish the detox was longer. Its challenging at times, but you just have to stay focused…. I definitely feel like I want to stick to a more plant based diet. I can’t wait to find out about the program you had said was a follow-up to this…..I tell everyone I know about this….I really love the support through the program….I love knowing that if I need something, you both are there. It’s not like the diet you keep putting off until tomorrow… and speaking of diet, I like that this is a way of living…I wasn’t a junk food eater before, but now I feel like I have more choices….Is there a way to get even more recipes? Yours are great and I thank you for them…

Thank you! Dana

 

Thanks for the detox program. I am feeling great. I am really enjoying the journey. I think this is helping w/ my allergies. No runny nose or itchy eyes. Amazing what the body does when it’s fed food it doesn’t have to fight against. Have a great night or should I say great day!

Here I am up at 6:26!? This is the better me! Walked the dogs, made the bed, and am about to do my zumba class. I started this when I began your program and have not missed a day.

I can’t thank you ladies enough for what you have done for me. I’m coming back to myself, and finding that I really am grateful for everyday, my health, better being and for getting the push I needed from you!
