By working with my SANE coach, I learned to eat in a way that burns up unwanted fat. Smoothies have become a necessary part of my life. Using natural ingredients and Garden in a Glass, I have left unwanted pounds behind. When eating out, my choices are healthy and the right amount.
The SANE Store provides baking goods and plenty of snack choices such as the peanut butter bites. I feel better and my attitude is brighter! My smile lets others know that I am doing well and I never miss an opportunity to tell others about SANE!
I was tired of yo-yo dieting and quick fixes that weren’t sustainable so I decided to go SANE. I am already feeling better since having removed the processed foods from my diet, not to mention my energy levels are higher and the ‘brain fog’ is lifting!

Being diabetic and not being able to get my blood sugar numbers to go down, and seeing pictures of myself I knew I had to make some changes in my life. Since discovering SANE, my A1C has gone from 6.5 to 5.9! I’m seeing weight loss and am able to be more active.
I love not having to count calories, worry about portion sizes or points. I don’t feel deprived and am eating better than what I use to! I no longer worry about being weighed in front of other people!
My advice to those thinking about going SANE or just starting their SANE journey is to NOT stress about being SANE, it will all come together!
My weight was out of control. Over the course of 35 years I gained over 100 pounds. I knew I needed to make some changes in my life. Since discovering SANE, I now have healthy food prep ideas weekly, I have coaching to help me and I know I’m following a plan that is proven to work.
I am more persistant with the SANE program than anything I’ve tried in the past.
My one piece of advice to someone just starting their SANE journey is to be consistent.
I had known for a while that I needed to make a change in my life, but I was in the middle of so much stress that it just wasn’t feasible. Once I got out on the other side of that I finally decided that now was the time to make a change but it had to be sustainable and work for ME.
Since discovering SANE my outlook on life has completely shifted from one of fear of disease and decline to one of excitement of things to come and looking forward to just getting better, stronger and healthier. For the first time in my life that I remember, food doesn’t control my thoughts and actions. I no longer have an almost uncontrollable drive to eat sugar / starchy foods. It’s an astounding and amazing experience for someone like me who has struggled with binge eating disorder my entire adult life.
I still have days where I’m tired but my overall well being of living in my own body is better than it has been in so many years. I’m stronger, have less (hardly any) joint and muscle pain, my cardiovascular condition is SO much better and I can keep up with my busy life without feeling like I’m being run into the ground at the end of every single day.
My advice for those just starting SANE? Be patient, give yourself time to build new habits and never ever get down on yourself for not being “perfect”. You are worth the time, effort and cost of doing this food / exercise / life thing right once and for all!
I knew I needed to make a change when I started having stomach pains. Since finding SANE, I have more energy, am able to focus more, as well as lost weight!
I like that SANE’s program is 100% natural. If you are just starting out on your SANE journey, my advice is to be consistent.

Since discovering SANE, I have been able to control my sweet tooth without the horrible cravings and I feel a greater sense of control over over my life since SANE is not a rigid plan. I feel better than I have in quite a while!
I like that SANE is not rigid and restrictive. You can go at your own pace and there is so much education material available, not to mention the coaching support as well!
The advice I would give to someone just starting their SANE journey is, take your time and don’t put pressure on yourself. Take it one step at a time, whatever your pace!
Within two years, both my mother and father, passed away from complications of type II Diabetes. I knew it was time for me to make a change in my life.

What makes SANE different from anything I’ve tried in the past are the scientific facts, rather just opinion. The love and support I get from the group (coaches and other members is awesome.)
The best advice I can give to someone just starting the program is to remember, Progress Not Perfection!
When I could no longer keep up with my grandkids and discovered myself getting slower on the tennis court, I knew I had to make a change! Going SANE has made all the difference. My joints no longer ache, I am eating LOTS of good food, plus my skin is soft and smooth.
Going SANE is like nothing I have tried in the past. I am now eating fat, even loving fat, and eating lots of food! My advice to someone just starting on their SANE journey would be to get ready to enjoy food again and to embrace the wonders of good fats.
I knew I had to try something different because I was tired of dieting and still frustrated with being overweight. SANE has significantly improved my life. I am not feeling deprived! I eat 10 or more non starchy veggies a day, nutrient dense protein, and whole food fats. I am less tempted by high sugar sweets and am able to limit grains from my diet as well. Even when I eat out I feel empowered to ask questions about things on the menu and ask for substitutions if needed.
With SANE, there’s no tracking of points, calories, fats, etc. No meetings! The focus is on healing my body NOT what I weigh! I AM MORE THAN WHAT I WEIGH! The web community is realistic as well as supportive! THANK YOU!
For everyone just starting their SANE journey remember: healing takes time. Give yourself the time you need to heal your body and make the changes!
I’d had a stroke in 2015 and was also diagnosed with Diabetes. I started feeling as if my life was on ‘fast forward’. I was quickly headed towards my declining years if I didn’t do something to slow it down.
I truly believe SANE is the answer to my prayers and that this program is helping me. I’ve never had so much hope and faith in a program that focuses on weight reduction while making me happier. I now believe I can accomplish other goals in my life.
SANE is definitely different from other programs because of Jonathan Bailor. He has thoroughly researched the subject and knows what he’s talking about. His excitement, added to his vast knowledge, helps you understand why he has a strong, sincere desire to help people. The SANE program provides the support needed to keep me going. I can see the faces of other people participating in the program, on the website and to me, that’s very encouraging. One of the best things about this program is that I’m not forced to deal with any embarrassing weigh-ins, in front of others. That’s something I’m definitely not comfortable with.
The recipes are exciting to prepare and don’t require any unusual ingredients like some programs. The foods needed to prepare a dish are just everyday items I can get at my local grocery store, so it’s not necessary to adjust my budget to follow this program.
If you’d like my advice, read, read, and read some more. Start smiling because you will be proud of yourself once you begin your journey. Remember, your journey is led by a man who cares deeply for us and has made your journey easy to achieve.
Several things had me thinking I needed to do something different than what I’d already done. Most importantly, after spending a night experiencing heart palpitations and gasping for breath, I called the doctor the next morning. I needed to take action.
Since becoming a member of SANE, I’m doing better. I now have a plan that guides me in a healthy direction. I’m exercising. The exercises are simple to follow and easy to do. What makes the SANE program different is when I fall off the wagon, it’s super easy to get back on and continue with the program.
If I were to give advice to anyone I would have to say; don’t act as though your kitchen is a cafeteria. Choose a dish that will make everyone you’re cooking for satisfied.
I work as a Background Actress in most of the films and television shows produced in New York City. There was a gala scene on BULL where I was featured wearing one of their gowns. It looked beautiful on me at the fitting, but somehow I misplaced my personal shaper. I had no choice but to wear the gown without it. My tummy only had pantyhose to hold it in. Everyone kept saying how breathtaking I looked, but when I looked in the mirror, I knew I had to make a change.
It was later that year when I began receiving SANE emails, it was perfect timing. One of your guys shared smoothie recipes and now I drink a smoothie, every morning. When I’m working, I do a lot of juicing too. Most importantly, the food is extremely healthy with an abundance of vegetables. I continue to do yoga and floor exercises.
I now have an abundance of energy, all the time. Some days, I have to be on set at 4:00 AM and most days are 12 to 16 hours long. Now, my sleep is better and deeper. When I’m not working, I rest. I am no longer endlessly tired like I was before joining SANE.
I feel amazing, even better than I did at 18 years old. Don’t tell the casting department, but I am 68 years old and they think I’m in my early 40’s. I love my life. I love my work. I love and totally appreciate SANE for entering my life.
Unlike all the others, SANE shares, cares, and gives positive information. There are very few items to purchase, but when you do need to buy something, it’s for the members own good and well worth it.
My best advice for someone just starting with SANE is: Be patient with yourself. Open your heart and your mind to being lead on a path to success.
For me, it wasn’t anything specific in my life that made me realize I needed to start doing things differently. I simply reached a point where I knew I needed to start eating better and taking better care of myself.
SANE has helped me to become more active and eat healthier. Since joining the program, I’m eating more vegetables, but I’m also paying closer attention to the different foods I’m eating. I’m making healthier decisions.
I believe the things that makes SANE different from anything else I’ve tried before is that the program is easy to understand and implement into my day to day life. Even better, I don’t feel as though I failed if I back-step a bit, and that’s important to me.
To anyone just starting their SANE journey, I would say, drink green smoothies! It’s a great way to get started on your own journey.
For many reasons, my health has always been a priority for me. The quality of SANE makes it so much easier for me to maintain a healthy diet and just feel great while living a full lifestyle.
Traveling to Alaska frequently for work, mountaineering and climbing, makes finding fresh vegetables very challenging. Since I discovered SANE I’m able to enjoy the daily nutritional benefits by adding Garden In My Glass to my diet.

I have tried every diet and failed; with some, I actually gained weight. I was on the Keto diet when I watched Jonathan’s seminar, it seemed so healthy and it made sense to me.
Since discovering SANE I have lost 6lbs and I feel better. I just feel happier. Even my posture is better.

My life is much better since discovering SANE in that I can actually eat much better food and enough of it so that I am not starving after dinner. And I am wearing smaller clothes! I am a lot happier now.
Sane is different from any other program I have tried before. It is a long term solution for losing weight. I am almost 64 and it took me a while to put the weight on; diets that promote weight-loss in a few weeks cannot work. I knew that I wouldn’t be able to lose weight in a few weeks, and I also knew I needed to cut the junk out. This is the only diet I have ever liked, and that I could ever stay with. I am actually happy to be on it.
The number one piece of advice that I would offer someone who is just starting out on their SANE journey is to understand that the program is a lifestyle change and will help you for the rest of your life.

About 4-5 years ago I was going through a lot, physically, mentally and emotionally. On top of that, I was going through a divorce. One day I woke up and realized I needed to think and care about myself. I needed to make a change to a better and healthier me.
My life has been better since discovering SANE. I am more conscious of what I what I am putting into my body and I can feel it healing from the inside. The meal planner is so convenient and takes the worry out of what to have for dinner.
SANE is different from anything else I have tried in the past in that I think of it as my platform to move at my own pace. There is no pressure, no time limit. The program has great support: whether it’s coaching calls or in the community forum, there is always someone there for you when you need them. There are no demands and there is no judgement; they listen and that really helps.

I was trying to lose weight and nothing was working. After listening to the Master Class, I finally made up my mind and realized that I needed to make a major change in my life.
My life is better since discovering sane because it has made me more aware of what I shop for and the food that I put into my body. Also, there is a great variety of foods from which to choose. Sane has given me the courage to try harder.
In other programs, I felt obligated and pressured to follow rules so I gave up. Whereas with SANE the pressure is gone. I have healthy choices SANE never feels like a diet.
While on one of the live coaching calls, Jonathan talked about the fact that due to the amount of food we are eating, you may not see any weight loss for some time after starting the program.. However, once your body gets used to eating healthy SANE food, you will start to notice the difference. I now know what he was talking about because for the first time in my life I’m seeing a number I haven’t seen in years.
The advice that I would give someone who is just beginning their SANE journey is to make sure you learn the program by doing the Step by Step lessons. Get to know and understand what it means to become SANE and stop the inSANE way of eating.
For the past 10 years I have been wanting to make a change in my life. The event that finally made me make that change was listening to Jonathan’s webinar.
Since joining SANE, I see that I am making a long term change in my eating habits. I no longer feel the pressure I used to from dieting because the program is not a diet; it’s a lifestyle change.
SANE is different from anything else that I have tried in the past in that it is scientifically based and proven and provides support from coaches. The program is a healthy regime that includes both body and mind. It offers consistent encouragement and focuses on progress, not perfection.
The number one piece of advice that I would offer someone who is just starting their SANE journey is to not hesitate, jump right into it and don’t look back.

My life is better since discovering SANE in that I have learned what I should and should not eat. And I see that others have been successful in the program and I know that I can too.
There are so many people out there claiming they know the best foods we should eat and the best way to get healthy and you get so confused you don’t know who to believe. When I listened to Jonathan I believed everything he said; he knew what he was talking about. The SANE program is different from other programs in that I don’t think of it as a diet but a lifetime change. Also,I have noticed that compared to other products that I have tried, SANE supplements do what they say they will do.
The number one piece of advice that I would offer someone who is just beginning their SANE journey is not to get down on yourself and remember that this is a lifetime change . Also, do the lessons in the Step By Step learning program.
After becoming frustrated with my appearance and how my clothes fit, I decided to make a major change in my life and join the SANE program.
SANE is about health and nutrition and is simpler than other programs that I have tried. The tools and resources are great and the information is provided in simple, basic terms. I appreciate getting attention and support from the health of my coach. Also, I love the progress vs perfection philosophy because it reminds us that nobody is perfect and enables us to focus on the main thing which is getting back on track.
I am very thankful for SANE and for Jonathan Bailor for looking at things with a much better perspective than other programs. I don’t think anything can go wrong with this program. If you follow another program to lose 10 lbs. in 10 days and gain it all back is more harmful than anything else.
The number one piece of advice that I would offer someone who is just starting their SANE journey to to remember that the program is a means of establishing a healthy lifestyle. If you want something that will give you results within the next 30 days, you won’t get that. SANE will help you get healthier in the long-term rather than giving you short-term results.
I realized that I needed to make a change in my life when I started feeling bloated and experienced stomach pains. I also have high blood pressure and high cholesterol.

By working with my SANE coach, I learned to eat in a way that burns up unwanted fat. Smoothies have become a necessary part of my life. Using natural ingredients and Garden in a Glass, I have left unwanted pounds behind. When eating out, my choices are healthy and the right amount.
The SANE Store provides baking goods and plenty of snack choices such as the peanut butter bites. I feel better and my attitude is brighter! My smile lets others know that I am doing well and I never miss an opportunity to tell others about SANE!
I was tired of yo-yo dieting and quick fixes that weren’t sustainable so I decided to go SANE. I am already feeling better since having removed the processed foods from my diet, not to mention my energy levels are higher and the ‘brain fog’ is lifting!

A bit of advice for those just starting out on their SANE journey: trust the SANE plan! Eat lots of veggies and protein and you really will have no more cravings.
Being diabetic and not being able to get my blood sugar numbers to go down, and seeing pictures of myself I knew I had to make some changes in my life. Since discovering SANE, my A1C has gone from 6.5 to 5.9! I’m seeing weight loss and am able to be more active.
I love not having to count calories, worry about portion sizes or points. I don’t feel deprived and am eating better than what I use to! I no longer worry about being weighed in front of other people!
My advice to those thinking about going SANE or just starting their SANE journey is to NOT stress about being SANE, it will all come together!
My weight was out of control. Over the course of 35 years I gained over 100 pounds. I knew I needed to make some changes in my life. Since discovering SANE, I now have healthy food prep ideas weekly, I have coaching to help me and I know I’m following a plan that is proven to work.
I am more persistant with the SANE program than anything I’ve tried in the past.
My one piece of advice to someone just starting their SANE journey is to be consistent.
I had known for a while that I needed to make a change in my life, but I was in the middle of so much stress that it just wasn’t feasible. Once I got out on the other side of that I finally decided that now was the time to make a change but it had to be sustainable and work for ME.
Since discovering SANE my outlook on life has completely shifted from one of fear of disease and decline to one of excitement of things to come and looking forward to just getting better, stronger and healthier. For the first time in my life that I remember, food doesn’t control my thoughts and actions. I no longer have an almost uncontrollable drive to eat sugar / starchy foods. It’s an astounding and amazing experience for someone like me who has struggled with binge eating disorder my entire adult life.
I still have days where I’m tired but my overall well being of living in my own body is better than it has been in so many years. I’m stronger, have less (hardly any) joint and muscle pain, my cardiovascular condition is SO much better and I can keep up with my busy life without feeling like I’m being run into the ground at the end of every single day.
My advice for those just starting SANE? Be patient, give yourself time to build new habits and never ever get down on yourself for not being “perfect”. You are worth the time, effort and cost of doing this food / exercise / life thing right once and for all!
I knew I needed to make a change when I started having stomach pains. Since finding SANE, I have more energy, am able to focus more, as well as lost weight!
I like that SANE’s program is 100% natural. If you are just starting out on your SANE journey, my advice is to be consistent.

What makes SANE different from anything I’ve tried in the past are the scientific facts, rather just opinion. The love and support I get from the group (coaches and other members is awesome.)
The best advice I can give to someone just starting the program is to remember, Progress Not Perfection!
When I could no longer keep up with my grandkids and discovered myself getting slower on the tennis court, I knew I had to make a change! Going SANE has made all the difference. My joints no longer ache, I am eating LOTS of good food, plus my skin is soft and smooth.
Going SANE is like nothing I have tried in the past. I am now eating fat, even loving fat, and eating lots of food! My advice to someone just starting on their SANE journey would be to get ready to enjoy food again and to embrace the wonders of good fats.
I knew I had to try something different because I was tired of dieting and still frustrated with being overweight. SANE has significantly improved my life. I am not feeling deprived! I eat 10 or more non starchy veggies a day, nutrient dense protein, and whole food fats. I am less tempted by high sugar sweets and am able to limit grains from my diet as well. Even when I eat out I feel empowered to ask questions about things on the menu and ask for substitutions if needed.
With SANE, there’s no tracking of points, calories, fats, etc. No meetings! The focus is on healing my body NOT what I weigh! I AM MORE THAN WHAT I WEIGH! The web community is realistic as well as supportive! THANK YOU!
For everyone just starting their SANE journey remember: healing takes time. Give yourself the time you need to heal your body and make the changes!
I’d had a stroke in 2015 and was also diagnosed with Diabetes. I started feeling as if my life was on ‘fast forward’. I was quickly headed towards my declining years if I didn’t do something to slow it down.
I truly believe SANE is the answer to my prayers and that this program is helping me. I’ve never had so much hope and faith in a program that focuses on weight reduction while making me happier. I now believe I can accomplish other goals in my life.
SANE is definitely different from other programs because of Jonathan Bailor. He has thoroughly researched the subject and knows what he’s talking about. His excitement, added to his vast knowledge, helps you understand why he has a strong, sincere desire to help people. The SANE program provides the support needed to keep me going. I can see the faces of other people participating in the program, on the website and to me, that’s very encouraging. One of the best things about this program is that I’m not forced to deal with any embarrassing weigh-ins, in front of others. That’s something I’m definitely not comfortable with.
The recipes are exciting to prepare and don’t require any unusual ingredients like some programs. The foods needed to prepare a dish are just everyday items I can get at my local grocery store, so it’s not necessary to adjust my budget to follow this program.
If you’d like my advice, read, read, and read some more. Start smiling because you will be proud of yourself once you begin your journey. Remember, your journey is led by a man who cares deeply for us and has made your journey easy to achieve.
Several things had me thinking I needed to do something different than what I’d already done. Most importantly, after spending a night experiencing heart palpitations and gasping for breath, I called the doctor the next morning. I needed to take action.
Since becoming a member of SANE, I’m doing better. I now have a plan that guides me in a healthy direction. I’m exercising. The exercises are simple to follow and easy to do. What makes the SANE program different is when I fall off the wagon, it’s super easy to get back on and continue with the program.
If I were to give advice to anyone I would have to say; don’t act as though your kitchen is a cafeteria. Choose a dish that will make everyone you’re cooking for satisfied.
I work as a Background Actress in most of the films and television shows produced in New York City. There was a gala scene on BULL where I was featured wearing one of their gowns. It looked beautiful on me at the fitting, but somehow I misplaced my personal shaper. I had no choice but to wear the gown without it. My tummy only had pantyhose to hold it in. Everyone kept saying how breathtaking I looked, but when I looked in the mirror, I knew I had to make a change.
It was later that year when I began receiving SANE emails, it was perfect timing. One of your guys shared smoothie recipes and now I drink a smoothie, every morning. When I’m working, I do a lot of juicing too. Most importantly, the food is extremely healthy with an abundance of vegetables. I continue to do yoga and floor exercises.
I now have an abundance of energy, all the time. Some days, I have to be on set at 4:00 AM and most days are 12 to 16 hours long. Now, my sleep is better and deeper. When I’m not working, I rest. I am no longer endlessly tired like I was before joining SANE.
I feel amazing, even better than I did at 18 years old. Don’t tell the casting department, but I am 68 years old and they think I’m in my early 40’s. I love my life. I love my work. I love and totally appreciate SANE for entering my life.
Unlike all the others, SANE shares, cares, and gives positive information. There are very few items to purchase, but when you do need to buy something, it’s for the members own good and well worth it.
My best advice for someone just starting with SANE is: Be patient with yourself. Open your heart and your mind to being lead on a path to success.
For me, it wasn’t anything specific in my life that made me realize I needed to start doing things differently. I simply reached a point where I knew I needed to start eating better and taking better care of myself.
SANE has helped me to become more active and eat healthier. Since joining the program, I’m eating more vegetables, but I’m also paying closer attention to the different foods I’m eating. I’m making healthier decisions.
I believe the things that makes SANE different from anything else I’ve tried before is that the program is easy to understand and implement into my day to day life. Even better, I don’t feel as though I failed if I back-step a bit, and that’s important to me.
To anyone just starting their SANE journey, I would say, drink green smoothies! It’s a great way to get started on your own journey.
For many reasons, my health has always been a priority for me. The quality of SANE makes it so much easier for me to maintain a healthy diet and just feel great while living a full lifestyle.
Traveling to Alaska frequently for work, mountaineering and climbing, makes finding fresh vegetables very challenging. Since I discovered SANE I’m able to enjoy the daily nutritional benefits by adding Garden In My Glass to my diet.

The number one piece of advice that I would give someone who is just starting their SANE journey is to remember that it is the quality of the food you eat that affects your health, and not the quantity.
I have tried every diet and failed; with some, I actually gained weight. I was on the Keto diet when I watched Jonathan’s seminar, it seemed so healthy and it made sense to me.
Since discovering SANE I have lost 6lbs and I feel better. I just feel happier. Even my posture is better.

After a very long illness, my husband passed away in early February. I had been taking care of him and realized that I hadn’t been taking care of myself. That was the major event that compelled me to take major action and lose weight.
My life is much better since discovering SANE in that I can actually eat much better food and enough of it so that I am not starving after dinner. And I am wearing smaller clothes! I am a lot happier now.
Sane is different from any other program I have tried before. It is a long term solution for losing weight. I am almost 64 and it took me a while to put the weight on; diets that promote weight-loss in a few weeks cannot work. I knew that I wouldn’t be able to lose weight in a few weeks, and I also knew I needed to cut the junk out. This is the only diet I have ever liked, and that I could ever stay with. I am actually happy to be on it.
The number one piece of advice that I would offer someone who is just starting out on their SANE journey is to understand that the program is a lifestyle change and will help you for the rest of your life.
The “tipping point” that compelled me to take major action with regard to my health was having both my knees replaced, and then part of my feet removed due to diabetes. After receiving health coverage to pay for things, I knew it was time for me to start my new SANE journey.

About 4-5 years ago I was going through a lot, physically, mentally and emotionally. On top of that, I was going through a divorce. One day I woke up and realized I needed to think and care about myself. I needed to make a change to a better and healthier me.
My life has been better since discovering SANE. I am more conscious of what I what I am putting into my body and I can feel it healing from the inside. The meal planner is so convenient and takes the worry out of what to have for dinner.
SANE is different from anything else I have tried in the past in that I think of it as my platform to move at my own pace. There is no pressure, no time limit. The program has great support: whether it’s coaching calls or in the community forum, there is always someone there for you when you need them. There are no demands and there is no judgement; they listen and that really helps.
