Top 10 success stories of 2022
Happy New Year, Diet Doctor community!
Thank you for trusting us for another year. Our mission would not be possible without the supportive community we’ve built together.
We connected on social media and asked you to reflect on the highs and lows of the past year. Although your experiences were unique, you all relied on the Diet Doctor community as a safe space to help you tackle the challenges that came your way.
We want to continue to be that source of inspiration and support, so we selected the 10 most popular success stories of 2022. Below, you’ll read about how people dramatically improved their lives and changed their health for the better.
These stories all have one common thread — the power of good food and the science behind how to apply it. By following a low carb, keto, or higher-satiety eating approach, most of them managed to lose unwanted pounds and improve, or reverse, various symptoms of metabolic disease.
We hope these stories inspire and spark your own personal journey towards better health in 2023. As always, we’re here for you — your goals are our goals, and your achievements are our achievements. Long term, sustainable success is possible with the right tools, guidance, knowledge, and support… and it tastes delicious too!
