Episode 2017 – On this Saturday show, Terri Barnhardt joins Vinnie and the two talk Colorado snow, Terri’s journey, diabetes development, turning life around with NSNG®, and more.
TERRI’S JOURNEY
- Terri is based out of Colorado.
- She’s waiting for more snow.
- She was always reasonably heavy.
- At around age 21, she worked in Grand Canyon, and still gained 60 lbs in 9 months.
- At the time, her doctor just told her to cut down on the peanut butter.
- This weight gain occurred while she was active each day.
- The diet was made up of lots of Mexican food (rice and beans), lots of margaritas, heavy carbs.
- She continued gaining weight, and developed diabetes, was on statins, and the like.
- When she was type 2, around 2012, her A1C was 13.3.
- Then, she ballooned up from there.
TURNING LIFE AROUND
- In about 2016, she was diagnosed with two separate types of cancer that were unrelated within two months.
- She had kidney cancer and bone cancer in her opposite leg.
- Her kidney surgery happened first, and then she underwent leg surgery.
- At that point, she heard cancer would kill her or at least take her leg.
- She had metal parts.
- Terri then found a doctor who told her she needed to lose 100 lbs. or he would put her on full time oxygen.
- Weight Watchers didn’t work.
- Then, she found NSNG®.
- She went all in, and it changed her life.
- It took Terri a few weeks to figure out where her good intentions were being stolen.
- She got off all of her insulin within six weeks.
- She had other incredible developments, along with her weight loss, too.
- Terri feels this way of living saved her life.
