Summary
She was overweight and struggled with high blood pressure and high cholesterol for years! All the while she was working for a major weight loss company.
When Brenda Workman quit that job and stopped relying on that failed diet plan she finally lost 60 pounds and has kept it off! She no longer needs medication for high blood pressure or high cholesterol.
How did she do it? She joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to detail her one of a kind journey to health that began by eating a plant-based diet.
Now she's teaching others how to take back control of their health as a Food for Life instructor.
