    Best transformation movie of all time

    Extremely realistic plant based documentary that really follows aspect of what it is like to completely change your life and completely transform. Any overweight person can relate to Tracy's trials and tribulations and will be inspired by her impressive and amazing results. Also what the viewer will love is how it doesn't seem to be impossible to do. She isn't starving herself. On the contrary, she eats as much as she wants... as long as it's plant based. I also like that she does cardio and strength training as well..That is also an important part of transforming and being at your best self. I highly recommend this movie, it will give you hope and the formula to escape the extra pounds that hold you back..

    Why The Hate???

    Why the hate? Sure this is a humble and modest film yet it tells a great story that many can benefit from! Tracy is a morbidly obese woman in her late 20's and through hard work and dedication she is able to shed over 200 pounds by going whole foods and working out daily. This is a message that is applicable to many and perhaps by watching this film they will be inspired to take action. Go forth brothers and sister. Great things can be yours!

    Inspiring health documentary

    This is an excellent documentary focusing on the power of exercise with a plant based diet.

    I loved seeing Tracy's journey to lose 200lbs in a year with Carly's method and also enjoyed learning about Juan-Carlos' personal experience.

    The documentary is quick and inspiring, and none of the methods are very complicated. Carly, as Juan-Carlos likes to be called, focuses on eating a whole foods plant-based diet, and on exercising and aiming to do 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of weights a day.

    He tracks Tracy throughout the entire year and shows a lot of different aspects of the weight loss, journey and of the positive impact to her health.

    Highly recommend!

    Worth watching

    Has great content that's worth watching even though it's probably one of the worst produced movies you'll ever see on a streaming service. Basically it's just a home movie shot by an phone but it's a fun story and shows what a huge impact a whole foods plant based diet and exercise can have on health.

    I would say watch all the other documentaries first like Forks over Knives, Game Changers, Eating you Alive, What the Health, etc. This doesn't have a lot of info about the science just a little sprinkled in here and there with Barnard and Campbell interviewed quickly. It's probably better to watch as reinforcement or support for people looking to lose weight or just improve their health of what is possible.

    What a transformation!

    Absolutely loved this movie. Our of the 3 documentaries that Juan-Carlos Asse has done, this was my favorite. I mean, Tracy Ryan's transformation is really, really impressive. Not only her physical transformation, but what she is able to do by the end of the film. It's also interesting to see how she changed as a person by the end of the film. And my favorite part is that it seemed like anyone can do it. Just eat a plant based diet and exercise, that's it. The amount of weight she lost from just walking is like nothing I've ever seen. This is definitely the best health/weight loss documentary I've ever seen. I've watched it 3 times already!
