180 Testimonial—Barbara & Erin's Story

Barbara "After"

Mother and Daughter Team

In 2010 I read Dr. Peter D'Adamo's book, "Eat Right for your Blood Type." I decided to follow his program. I am type O+. I discovered that I am gluten intolerant and I knew that my thyroid function was "low-normal." I now read every label of every food I eat. I avoid gluten and corn in ALL forms. My diet is high in protein and I avoid foods that interfere with thyroid function. In addition to my Dynamite regimen; I make sure I get 4000/5000mgs of Vitamin D daily and extra kelp in the form of bladderwrack (for thyroid function). I lost 30 lbs. following the blood type diet and knew I needed to lose more. When I came to  Spring Conference this year and heard all the success stories about 180; I decided to try it. 

Erin "After"

I also told my daughter, Erin about the products. She was very overweight and addicted to soda. She really wanted to lose weight but works two very physical jobs. She was using the sodas for the caffeine and sugar. She decided to try the 180 protocol. By using 180, Dynamite's supplements, and Mega Botanicals, she has stayed on the program and in the last 4 ½ months has lost 65lbs!

I have lost 30lbs since May as well and now weigh 135lbs. This is the least I have weighed in 20 years! I am now in "lock in.” Erin will stay on the Protocol for a while yet but we both now have the knowledge and tools to control our weight and thus our future. Thank You Dynamite!

Dynamite 180 Testimonial—Jennifer's Story

I have been overweight my entire life, even as a kid. As an adult I believe I spent more time on diets than not. I would lose weight but then gain it right back in a frustrating cycle, which could not be healthy for my body. Even after adopting some truly healthy eating habits over the past decade like removing processed foods, wheat, processed dairy and sweets, I found myself over 200 pounds. My blood pressure was up as well as my cholesterol and my doctor wanted to put me on medications. I said no! I told her I would be back in a year 50 pounds lighter. She agreed to give me the chance.

I managed to drop 25 pounds on my own, fueled by the threat to my health, but I was losing steam and could feel my body wanting to put that weight back on. Around this time, other Dynamite distributors had been starting to talk about 180. But I was stuck in my own head about the very low calorie part of the diet and thought it had to be unhealthy. Then last year's summer challenge approached and I was encouraged by two of my Dynamite friends, Ashley Fawkes and Brenda Ladd, to form a team. I thought, “What do I have to lose?” So we scraped together some team members, and began in July 2011. We all stuck to the protocol very rigidly, taking DM Plus, Tri-Mins, and Premium Magnesium daily along with the 180. The results were astounding. Everyone on the team lost a minimum of 25 pounds during the challenge. One member lost over 50 pounds. And the great part is that our Facebook support group, which started with this small, 6 or 7 member team and has continued on serving as support for now over 100 people. I'm really proud of my original team, including my mom, who have all either maintained their weight loss or lost even more over the past year. It’s a true testament to the protocol. It really works...

Since the beginning of this year I have been trying to lose another 10 pounds. I had some success, but was having trouble locking in. I was feeling so good that the motivation piece was missing for me. I had seen my doctor and smiled smugly as she reported my blood pressure was normal and my cholesterol was down 60 points and normal as well. So I was cruising along easily maintaining the weight loss I had attained last year. The launch of the new 180 and Dyna-Lite is what got me going again and the fall challenge was just the leverage I needed to get to my new goal. I lost the 10 pounds in the first two weeks and am locked in now. I haven't been this size in my whole life, not even as a teenager.

A Dynamite Finish At The Tevis Cup

Bill Gore. Gore/Baylor Photography

Last month, Dynamite distributor Willemina De Boer finished a phenomenal 7th out of 98 riders at the prestigious Tevis Cup. This one-day-100-mile endurance ride tests both the rider and the horse in strength, stamina, and focus, as they traverse rugged terrain from Lake Tahoe to Auburn, California. Both Willemina and her horse, SMR Fillouette (owned by Dynamite distributor Potato Richardson) relied heavily on Dynamite products in their preparation as well as during the ride.

 “The horse is on PGR and used Pre-Race Pak™ for the Tevis ride. We put Dynamite Balm on the coronet bands for grounding. I used 180™ to lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks before the ride. This was helpful because extra weight holds extra heat. During the ride I used Elixir™ in my water bottles-this helps my stomach and digestion. I was also taking Premium Magnesium to relax and prevent muscle soreness. Lastly, I used Tri-Mins™ for extra calcium and to neutralize lactic acid and prevent cramping. The horse felt like true Dynamite power!”  Willemina De Boer, Distributor, Texas

We are very proud of Willemina, Potato, and SMR Fillouette for this outstanding accomplishment.

Dynamite Testimonial—Alice's 180™ Story

Before photo—March 22, 2012

After photo—August 2012

I started 180™ in February 2012 and in less than six months I'm down over 41 pounds, off of Prilosec, and off the pill. My hormones were super nuts for awhile, but that went away just like the cravings and sugar withdrawals did. I was also prescribed Lorazapam for anxiety and I am now off that and completely off Celexa, a depression medication. I am SO SUPER PSYCHED as I know this med can actually change the composition of the brain. 

I'm so thankful for the 180 program and for Lorraine L for introducing me to this [Dynamite 180 Support] group... it's so much more than weight loss. I feel like I've been a walking zombie and dead for the past 5-7 years and now I'm alive again!!!! 

THANK YOU!!!

Sydni's Story—A Lifestyle Change
I entered the Fit for Fall Challenge thinking that it would be just like every other diet I tried. I was SO wrong. Not only did I lose weight, but for the first time my relationship with food changed. This is not a diet, it is a lifestyle change and one that will continue long after the challenge has ended. I feel better physically and emotionally. Thank you so very much!

Carrie's Story
I did 180 last year. After 42 days on Dynamite 180, I had lost 20.6 pounds and 20.75 inches, including 7.5 inches from my waistline! I continued to lose a bit during early lock-in. During the 180, I had plenty of energy and only got hungry right before meals. This product rocks! I am doing 180 again with my goal being to get back into my favorite clothes from freshman year in college.

Yvette's Story—A New Way of Eating

I have struggled with weight all my life, going up and down with various diets, but never really achieving a master plan. This is the first diet that makes me feel that I could live with it. I love that I am eating real food and thoughtfully putting together meals that are nutritious and tasty. I love that I can feel satisfied without breads or carbs and have no cravings for sweets. I love that I can trust that I will continue to lose weight while taking good care of my body and eliminating toxic foods from the past. I love that I can let go of certain medicines because this new way of eating is healthy for me and the issues I faced before the diet. I am happy to have finally found a way to eat fruits and vegetables and proteins in a way that I can continue and I really never feel like I must cheat. The support system is amazing. I love this program.

Donna's Story

I have been a yo-yo dieter for years, gaining and losing the same 20-30 lbs. since high school. Until I hit my 50's I was able to lose, but never to maintain my loss for more than a couple of years. Having seen some unflattering pictures in June of 2011, I decided to try 180 based on the recommendation of a friend/distributor. I had been trying to lose the 30lbs without any luck, trying a number of other diets and none of them would budge the weight. I managed to lose the 30lbs and many inches with the 180 protocol. This "diet" also became a way of eating clean and a lifestyle change. I do feel so much better because of this way of living. I will continue to take advantage of the great support network I have found with this program.

Hannah's Story

For years I have been overweight. Using another popular diet, I was able to lose 20 or so lbs. but got stuck there. I figured this was my "skinny" weight, until I tried 180! This got me into new territory where I hadn't been since my teens. My weight loss journey is still a work in progress, but my old skinny weight is a good 20 lbs. higher than where I am now. I am working on getting off a few more lbs... then I am going to stabilize, which I have not yet done. I am confident with the support of the Facebook groups; I will get there this time! I have learned so much about what is healthy for my body. Adding Dyna-Lite helped my hunger cravings and is supporting my thyroid. I also rely on Mega Botanicals daily as well as DM Plus, Tri-Mins, Elixir, and an occasional Premium Magnesium. I have been able to go off Free & Easy since cleaning up my diet on 180. I no longer feel the aches in my joints.
Hannah Schillawski, Dynamite Distributor

Christine's Story
For the last 15 years I have been unable to satisfy my hunger and have slowly added 35 lbs to my 5'4 frame. I used to be able to eat whatever I wanted, exercise a little and lose weight. Now at almost 60 years old and 169.6 lbs. this fat doesn't want to go away. My hunger for carbs is a true addiction that I could not consistently control until I tried Dynamite 180. What an amazing product. After 2 weeks, I have been free of my obsessive hunger and have lost 8 1/2 pounds. It's the start of a healthy life style that I can acheive with the help of Dynamite 180.

The Ladd's Story—HUSBAND AND WIFE TEAM

My husband Jonathan and I had determined 2011 would be the year to get in shape. I am going to be 50 next year and was feeling the effects of post-menopausal weight gain. Jonathan was feeling the effects of years in corporate America, extensive travel and less than optimal exercise regimen. We were looking into exercise vacation packages and trying to figure out how we could combine getting fit and having fun. Another Dynamite Distributor, Jen Judkins, was at a horsemanship clinic we were hosting. She told us about a nation-wide challenge for a new Dynamite product that was similar to HCG. We researched & decided to participate in the challenge.

During the Dynamite Challenge, I lost 23.4 lbs in 8 weeks. That was an average loss of 2.925 lbs. per week. My husband, lost 47.4 lbs. in 8 weeks–an average loss of 5.925 lbs. per week. We have completed the lock-in phase of the 180 protocol. Since we started lock-in I have lost 2 more lbs. and Jonathan has lost 13. We have lost nearly 86 lbs. combined! We are now in the maintenance phase and are slowly adding more variety to our food choices. Not only did my husband and I have phenomenal results during the Challenge with 180, we have maintained at or below our goal weight. 180 and the protocol have given us the tools to get the weight off and maintain with healthy eating choices.
I am proud to be a Dynamite distributor!

Trish's Story—NEW HEALTH TO CHEER ABOUT

180 has changed my life. Thank you!! I lost 35 pounds using 180. After having liver issues, I hit the wall and decided to give the product a try. It was easy to do and many friends and family members wanted to know the secret. I enjoy helping others feel this great physically and emotionally.

I had my blood analyzed at a 6-month check during the most stressful work week…the last week of school in a 7th grade classroom! I had great results in previous trouble areas–even without fasting.

HDL–My good cholesterol went from 61 to 75. Triglyceride–My bad cholesterol went from 171 to 66. Glucose–103 to 94. ALT–My liver enzymes went from 59 to 29. The doctor told me that he has never seen ALT change like this before. Everything else was in mid range. Thanks again!

Yvonne's Story
My husband and I went on the Dynamite 180 protocol two weeks ago. In just 7 days, I had lost nearly 7 lbs (only 1 lb shy of my goal weight!) and hubby lost 10 lbs. At 14 days, hubby has lost 14 lbs total and his pants are all too loose! I’m now happily at my goal weight.

My reason for going on the protocol was not really for losing weight (since I am not overweight) - though it is nice to get myself to the weight I want to be, which I could never seem to do before. I really wanted to break some of my bad eating habits and addictions, such as too much sugar, chocolate, and goodies.

My husband did need to lose weight, but he is a total diet rebel. He said it wouldn’t work, he couldn’t do it, etc., but I convinced him to just give it a trial. He faithfully took the drops, followed the meal plans, and was amazed that he was not that hungry, and had tons of energy - even on the days when he had to work physically hard. Soon he was very self-motivated, especially when he saw that the scale was dropping every day. It now seemed easy!

The limited food lists forced me to get creative with recipes, which was fun and challenging. We also ate vegetables that we do not normally eat, and discovered that we really like them! And we truly appreciate all the food that we do eat so much more than before. We have a greater awareness of every bite of food that enters our bodies.

Probably the best side effect we’ve noticed is the increased energy, and feelings of well-being. I have a little bit of adrenal fatigue, which I take Adrenal Formula for, but on the 180 protocol, I’ve been even calmer and more relaxed, sleeping great, getting tons of work done, and more productive than ever. I feel like my brain is clearer and more focused. I feel more connected and in tune with myself.

And the food addictions? I have had some minor cravings during the diet, but it has been very manageable, with the help of a little stevia for sweetener. I have not cheated once! The chocolate and sugar cravings have slowly disappeared, and I think when I do finally allow myself to taste those things again, I will have a much different relationship with those foods.

180 is more than a diet - it is definitely a life-booster!

Kristie's Story
I started the 180 Diet in late February and have lost 27 pounds in ten weeks. I am completely blown away by the way I feel and look. This stuff is the bomb!My goal is to loose a total of 40 pounds so that I can fit into my size 6 wedding dress for our 20th wedding anniversary.

The crazy thing about this diet is that once my co-workers saw that I was looking better every day they asked questions and now 6 or more of them are doing the 180! I love it! I have a group of working woman and husbands wanting to get healthy. Its truly amazing....

Jacqueline's Story—OH WHAT A FEELING!
 What a wild trip this has been! I’ve lost 8 lbs. in 13 days. Glenn has lost 13 lbs! This has changed my life. I have never felt better! Clear eyes, clear-headed, energetic, happy and so proud of myself! I’ve learned that if I have a craving for something off protocol, I make a conscious decision to either eat it or not, before just blindly shoving it into my mouth. I feel more relaxed about it and have even come to like that feeling of being a little bit hungry! No more panic mode when I get hunger pangs. Keep on keeping on!
Jacqueline Conn Lawton, Dynamite Customer

Susan's Story
The big disappointment is we haven’t done much shopping yet. Mostly because of stacks of jeans and shirts in descending sizes saved for that someday when we lose weight. Roger is nearly to the bottom of his smallest sized stack; I’m halfway through my stacks. Shopping is on the horizon! And, a couple new stacks have appeared, ready to find new homes—the, “these are too big” stacks!

Since beginning the Dynamite 180 program on New Years, Roger has lost a whopping 40 lbs and I have shed 20. We have not been hungry on the protocol, and have eaten well despite the somewhat limited menu choices. Since we both love to cook, we have actually enjoyed crafting different appetizing meals. Our energy levels are higher, we both sleep better. The winter blahs have not been an issue this year as our attitudes and outlooks are much more positive.

I’ve never been calorie counter. We have tried to eat wisely, eliminating fast foods, sodas, and those sorts of things. Still over time, the pounds accumulated—a couple of pounds a year. In a thirty year span that turns into a lot of pounds. We both realized we needed to change; our health was in peril. But the diets we tried just didn’t seem to work, and in fact added to the problem with yo-yo increases.

I can’t tell you how excited we both were when Dynamite announced the 180 protocol. We knew if it was Dynamite, it would be the real deal. It is such a rush to get on the scale in the morning and see the pounds slipping away. To see the carbohydrate cravings disappear. To know we finally are getting control of our lives. Dynamite 180 has allowed us to see how eating habits have affected us, and to finally realize where food really fits into our lives. This is about so much more than just losing weight. It’s about changing your life, about saving your life.

For anyone who wants to lose weight whether it be five pounds, or more than fifty pounds, Dynamite 180 works. It will change your life. Someday is today!

Victoria's Story
After our first week on the 180 diet my husband is down 5 lbs and I am down 6 lbs with 3 1/2 inches off my waist and 3/4 inches off each thigh! We’re really enjoying our meals too! Probably one of the most challenging parts is ensuring we are drinking enough water.
Victoria Alexander, Supervisor, NV

Jennifer's Story
I fell off [the protocol] for a few days but found I wasn’t craving the carbohydrates and sugars at all. I got back with the protocol and lost another 2 lbs yesterday! My scale hasn’t shown these numbers for a very long time. Last weekend I wore a pair of jeans that have always been snug and uncomfortable, but they were almost on the loose side and super comfy. It feels great!
Jennifer McKillip, Director, OR

Jim's Story
When I started the 180 program 6 months ago. I didn't really have a weight loss goal in mind, I just wanted to see if it would work for me. I didn't always follow the protocol, but through holidays, stalls, one lock-in, old set-points, "cheating", and struggles, I've lost 70lbs in SIX months! I also know how to keep it off! Out of the what, how, & when to eat, I struggle mostly with the "when" part. I'm still working on that. Re-reading the 180 product usage protocol booklet and following the great suggestions from the 180 support group have given me some helpful info, things I wasn't doing correctly. So, thanks to all you group members for your help and.....Thanks, Dynamite!

Dynamite Testimonial: Relief from unusual skin reaction

Ever since the age of three, I suffered from skin lesions on my body that resulted from insect bites. Usually I would get bitten and then I’d scratch. However after a time it’d be the dead of winter and a lesion would show up and then MORE lesions would sprout up around the other one once it started to go away. My body is permanently scared because of this. I went to doctors all over the world for them trying to figure out what it was. Doctors had me on various antibiotics over the years. I was instructed to bathe in various stinky substances. One of the treatments was to put an ointment on the sores and then cover appendages (the bites were mostly on arms and legs) with plastic-wrap. One doctor went to as far to say that I was doing this to myself for attention and said I needed an evaluation from a therapist! Well, I went off to college and I became old enough to decide for myself what to do. So I did absolutely nothing and decided to just live with it like I always have with no treatment at all. When I was about 24 I started to use Dynamite on my horses and saw results. I started to use it on myself to see if it helped with the skin problems. I was told to start off on the Elixir™. I then started taking Dynamite®, Tri-Mins™, PMS., and Hair, Skin and Nails. Well for the first time since I was three years old I went a full year without any sores! Whatever Dynamite did for me helped when no other doctor could!
