KATELYN’S STORY

  • Katelyn found Vinnie through his book.
    • She found it on Amazon while looking for fitness and health books.
      • At first, she didn’t take it all in because she thought it was crazy.
  • She struggled to lose the last 10 to 15 lbs in her late 20s.
    • Katelyn had tried vegetarianism and other similar diets.
      • Vegan propaganda is so strong.
      • She switched to almond milk, vegan butter and the like.
      • The weight never really came off.
  • She’s a counselor in Department of Corrections in Rhode Island.

FOOD PYRAMID INDOCTRINATION

  • The food pyramid and what we’re taught as kids had really gripped her.
  • She had brain fog, lethargy, was often sore, and had other symptoms.
    • It turned out, she had a gluten allergy.
      • After she cut out gluten, her symptoms went away and she rediscovered Vinnie.
  • Then, she cut out sugar and grains and weaned herself off of artificial sweeteners and it started to make sense.
  • It was difficult to buy it because she was so convinced from a young age that fat would make her fat.
  • Once you start cooking real food, you don’t want the bread –– it no longer is “I can’t live without it.” It’s “I don’t want to live with it.”
