"You don’t have to be perfect, just make better choices."

Bob H., P-AC

 


I checked into the Rice Program on May 18th and departed three weeks later with a weight loss of 27 pounds. On December 15th (at home), my weight is 220 pounds for a loss of 60 pounds... the greatest health experience of my life and I continue to work at it.
-Arnie R.




“I have benefited a great deal in my diet, but due to staying low sodium, my medications have decreased since I left. I am the same weight today as when I left exactly a year ago”
-Doris K.



“ This was the highlight of my adult life. I did something on my own for four months and succeeded. Not a day passes that I don’t think of the wonderful experience I had in Durham on the program.”
-Natalie F.



On being on the Rice Diet- “One of the smartest moves I have ever made. “
-Janet F.


“I came to the Rice House because I hit rock bottom in that I was embarrassed to be seen in public, and avoided numerous social obligations. Now that I am leaving the Rice House to go home, I was just thinking about how successful the program is, and I am delighted to have lost 30 lbs in 2 months. Thanks for making my stay in Durham with the Rice program a most profitable experience.

"In 1980, while in residence in Durham for ten months, I lost 150 pounds under the supervision of the Rice Diet staff. Here it is fifteen years later...

I have maintained my weight at 115 pounds all these years. It is the hardest thing that I have ever done. My life began again when I lost the weight. This is not to say that I don't have problems, when you're fat, it's an illness that shows on the outside. It's all consuming and distracts you from the real problem - you. I can't hold my fat accountable anymore - but I wouldn't have it any other way."
-Rhonda R.


"Dad, who recently finished a month-long stay at the Rice Diet, is doing just great. He lost 30 pounds, but even more important, he was able to discontinue taking insulin and his blood pressure and some heart medications. This is nothing short of a miracle! I had been very worried about his health in recent years, but I feel more confident that he'll be around for a long time to come. Please pass along my gratitude to the Rice Diet staff. Thanks for giving me back my Dad."
-Carol G.
