Just like with MS, everyone is different. I understand a lot of what he said. I was big in crossfit, had a trainer, I should have been healthy! I was hit with this disease like him. I had to move bc my apartment was on the 3rd floor of a historic building. It was my dreamland. I am miserable where I live now. MINDSET AND SUPPORT ARE #1! Do what works for you. I don't use the program, first I listened to. He is inspiring, deserves compensation if he is an expert. It takes someone with MS and is dedicated bc it effects themselves as well. He made a lot of sense. I am in PT 3xs a week and I quit bc it was insulting considering my knowledge. Thanks!

Informational

This is good information but the narrator is boring and I was ready to pull my hair out by the end. She was so monotonous, no passion at all. There is no form or format, she just lists what she eats but no way to fix the dishes. Example, "I fix rice and add herbs and you can have it as leftovers the next day. This is a great idea." This is not a great idea as it is boring, and you give no ideas for herbs or spices. For me, a great idea would be fix rice, add cumin, italian seasoning, maybe some diced tomatoes, diced onions, or other diced veggies.....that would be worth listening to but fish blended with yogurt to make a dip....no thank you.

Good information but Boring.....
