In November 2000, I had my first consultation with Darlene. I wanted to get off the medications and just feel better.  We discussed my health history and Darlene suggested nutritional changes that she thought would make me feel better. After years of struggling to solve the puzzle of my poor health, I knew in our first 2 hour conversation that Darlene was providing the missing pieces. So, I followed her recommendations very diligently. I didn't expect immediate results. I thought that a nutritional approach to my health would result in a slow, gradual improvement, if any.

I was completely surprised to feel a dramatic change in my overall sense of well-being. I was mentally and my memory was sharper; I felt more emotionally balanced, in contrast to the highs and lows I had become accustomed to; and, I had much more physical energy. Although I didn't come to Darlene with any weight loss goal, I lost 15 pounds in the first two months. Now, 1 ½ years later, I have lost a total of 35 pounds. I am happier and feel healthier than I ever had before. I cannot say enough positive things about the possibilities of good nutrition, and especially about Darlene's individual approach.
