How a mother, father, and son conquered diabetes, obesity, and more
Jessica and Timothy Bayer of Buena Park, Calif., and their four-year-old son Caleb flew to London last October for a journey of nutritional healing with me and seven others. The experience turned each of their major health issues completely around. As a result, Caleb, 4, is now a far healthier and happier kid, Timothy, 40, is sharp and energetic again, and Jessica, 40, is no longer diabetic, depressed, or food-obsessed. Here’s my interview with the Bayers about their incredible transformation.
KJ: Jessica, you look fantastic. Is it really true that at seven months pregnant (congratulations!), you still have a net weight loss of 87 pounds?
Jessica: Yes, I’m actually smaller at seven months than before I got pregnant! When I started your regimen last spring, I was a size 22, weighing around 249 pounds. By England, I was down to a size 14. Just before I got pregnant in November, I bought my first size 10 jeans, which was surreal. I stopped weighing myself, but when my doc started weighing me after I got pregnant, I was down 87 pounds. Even more amazing, I’ve stayed at the same weight, even as the baby has grown healthily. But more important, my blood pressure is perfect and I’m no longer diabetic, depressed, or miserable in my exhaustion and food cravings. It’s a totally different experience from my last pregnancy.
KJ: Could you share a little about how things have changed for you over the past year?
