More praise for Better Together
"I have been doing food eliminations for about approximately 1-1/2 years. I've read books, purchased cookbooks and tried new things. I have learned so much from Cristina's vast knowledge and experience with AIP, Paleo, Keto, Whole 30 lifestyles, far more than I have from any other resource. Her books, recipes, podcasts and social media posts are always informative and helpful. When she posted about this Better Together group I signed up and I am so happy I did. It is refreshing to be in a group of people that all have the same type of issues with inflammation and autoimmune disease and truly understand what you are going through, especially Cristina. The facebook group and weekly group zoom meetings are fun, informative and give me lots of extra options. Cristina is great about answering all your questions whether you email her, post it on the facebook page or during our weekly one on one zoom calls. I've created a binder to include all the information I am learning from this and all the yummy new recipes I am trying. I am planning on taking the information I have learned and continue on my journal to better health!" - Maria
"I have loved this group and learned so much not only from you, but from others in the group. Before this reset I was really struggling with simple self-care. I was burned out and even though I was following keto fairly strictly I was tired of cooking and found myself leaning on quick go-to foods just to get through the day. I knew I wasn't fully nourishing my body with whole foods but in my head I was using the excuse "I'm sticking with my macros, so whatever." In spite of being on keto and fasting multiple days per week, my acid reflux was raging and I was fed up with all the doctors who told me there was nothing I could do. The support and inspiration from this group has been invaluable. The FB group's food pics and encouragement were inspiring. I have been a huge fan of your cookbooks and website for years and being in this group got me excited to try some recipes in the books I've never made before and enjoy cooking again. I was worried I'd spend the month white-knuckling my way through a super restrictive eating plan but it has felt totally opposite to that. I am eating a variety of foods and not depriving myself. My acid reflux went from totally out of control to almost completely gone (and I even had coffee yesterday!!!!). Aside from feeling better, the one result I really wasn't expecting is the subtle beginnings of a mindset shift thanks to your one on ones and the real talk of everyone else in the group. I have always struggled with viewing food as the enemy and although I haven't completely turned off that negative inner voice, this group has created a safe place to experiment with letting that go and giving my body what it actually needs. The results of making these small changes have resulted in better sleep, improved moods, and a body that is healing."- Riana
