“I am so thankful for Joan Ifland’s program. For the first time in my life, I have found a group that understands my relationship with processed foods and, even more importantly, has a solution. Joan’s expertise is astounding. She has such a welcoming nature and understands that each person is an individual coming from a different platform. Although I realize this is just the beginning of healing my compulsive overeating after 45 years of searching, I am so thankful for the program.”
