Our success stories

"I started Keto about 4 weeks ago and I’m down 23 pounds. I started by doing a meal delivery service which was a great way for me to get started on. But that being said, something is missing and that is why I joined this group and the RH plan."

Trudy T.

"Joy, joy, joy! I want to share that I started the program on July 20th and have lost 2.2 kg. While my weight had been endlessly increasing (and I had put away the scale), and it seemed unreal that it would reverse, I feel like I have less of a double chin and a slightly slimmer face."

Menard F.

"Thank you, RH! This is the first time I’ve found a plan that really works for me in terms of all of the recipe choices and however, everything is laid out and the app. And the support group. Just fantastic. Really comprehensive and at the same time personalized (vs corporate)…KEY is that you are tending to women in our age range & our unique needs. I LOVE what you are doing for US. THANK YOU!!!!"
