Struggling to keep vegan and create her art, Pam re-connected with her identity as an Artist and Teacher and it completely transformed her life.

"I seriously changed my lifestyle a year ago. I started walking to work every day (3.4 miles with hills), batch cooking the meal plans once a week, overnight oats for breakfast on weekdays, snacking less or healthy snacks, organizing my entire house, changing my teaching pedagogy (I am an art teacher), creating and sticking to a house cleaning routine, and getting up at 4 every morning to meditate and make art before starting my work day."

After gaining weight on a vegan diet, Bev switched to low carb for 1 year. Her results were moderate but she was miserable and regained half. On the Blueprint, Bev lost 7lbs in 2 weeks. Now 12.5lbs total and loving plant-based (vegan) Most important Bev feels GOOD, is happy, doesn't fear carbs anymore, and knows what to do to stay successful.

Kirsten didn't recognize the person she'd become in pictures so she started the Blueprint and after a few weeks joined Meal Mentor.
