At 22 I could bench 280. At 34 I weighed 367.

Nothing about the way I ate changed. My life did — and my body kept score. If you've watched the same thing happen to you and you're tired of being told to just try harder, let me show you what finally worked.

Why it happens

It probably isn't willpower.

I spent ten years assuming I'd just gotten lazy. I hadn't. I'd become insulin resistant, and nobody had ever explained to me what that actually meant.

Tiave in his early twenties
Around 22 — before any of it started.

In college I ran three to five miles a week, played sports, and danced ten or eleven hours a day. At 22 I was 6'1", around 200 pounds, benching 280 and squatting 310. Then I finished school, started teaching, and started working eighteen-hour days. The activity disappeared. The eating didn't change. Nobody warned me what happens next.

Here's the short version of what was going on inside. Every time you eat, your pancreas releases insulin to move sugar out of your blood and into your cells. Do that often enough, with the food most of us live on, and your cells stop responding to the signal. So your pancreas sends more. And more.

High insulin is what makes you hungry an hour after a full meal. It's the three o'clock crash. It's the weight that settles around your middle and won't shift no matter how carefully you eat. Nothing about you is broken. A signal your body used to hear just isn't getting through any more.

Which is also why every diet I tried failed. They all asked me to fight the hunger. None of them touched the reason I was hungry.

Gym memberships. Low carb. Keto. A chiropractor. At one point a pill-based program that damaged my vocal cords. Each one worked for a while, then handed the weight back with interest. What finally changed things wasn't more discipline — it was doing something about the insulin itself.

Self-check

How many of these sound like you?

You can do everything right and still feel stuck. When that happens, it usually isn't effort that's missing. Any one of these on its own means very little. Several of them together is a pattern worth understanding — it's the exact pattern I had, for years, before anyone gave it a name.

Do you have the signs of insulin resistance?

Answer honestly. This is a self-check to help you spot a pattern — it is not a diagnosis, and it doesn't replace talking to your doctor.

The protocol

What a day actually looks like

This is the part people are surprised by. There's no meal plan, no calorie counting, and no food you're banned from. Two products, timed around when you eat.

MORNING · STILL FASTING

Start with Unimate

Start your day with Unimate for morning focus — without breaking your fast. Roughly the caffeine of a good cup of coffee, but the antioxidants slow how fast it hits, so most people get steady energy rather than jitters. Sip it, don't shoot it.

Unimate · 1st
WITH LUNCH OR MID-AFTERNOON

Unimate again

Take a second Unimate with lunch to support feeling full, or as an afternoon pick-me-up. It lands right where the afternoon slump and the snack reflex usually show up.

Unimate · 2nd
YOUR HEAVIEST MEAL

Balance before or with it

Mix Balance vigorously and drink it right away, before or during the heaviest meal of your day — not simply the first one. The fiber is the point: it changes how the meal behind it lands, which is what takes the edge off cravings and the crash after.

AFTER DINNER

Start your fast

Eat your food through the day — not a diet version of it. After dinner, start your fast and wait 16 hours before your next meal. The morning Unimate is what makes that window comfortable instead of miserable.

16-hour fast

Timing follows Unicity's Feel Great guidance.

The first two or three weeks can feel odd. Adding real fiber often means some gas or bloating while your body adjusts — that's normal and it settles. If it's uncomfortable, start with half a packet, or take Balance without food for the first few days.

And to say it plainly, because it matters: this works alongside your doctor, not instead of them. Keep taking what you've been prescribed and tell them what you're doing. If your numbers start moving, that's a conversation to have with them, not with me.

Not before-and-after models

People using the same two products, in their own words. I've kept what they said about how they feel and left the medical details to them and their doctors.

I'm a nurse, and for years I couldn't help myself. I couldn't lose half a pound to save my life. I'm forty-two pounds lighter now, my head is clear, and I have energy I hadn't felt in a very long time. I feel like me again.

Questions

The things people ask me most

Do I have to diet, or count anything?

No. It isn't a diet. Instead of restricting what you eat, you're using food-based products to manage hunger, cravings, energy and blood sugar — so the choices get easier without depending on willpower. No calorie counting, no banned foods.

How long before I notice anything?

Unicity guarantees you'll feel better within 30 days of daily use. In practice it ranges from a day or two to about six weeks, depending on where your gut and liver are starting from and what medications you're on. Changes in weight tend to come gradually, as a downstream effect of the metabolic side — not as the first thing you notice.

Can I keep taking my medications?

Yes — keep taking what you've been prescribed, exactly as directed. If you're managing diabetes, talk to your doctor about monitoring, because dosages sometimes need review as blood sugar changes. That conversation belongs with them, not with me.

Will Unimate give me the jitters?

Each serving has roughly 100mg of caffeine — about the same as a good cup of coffee. Most people report steady energy without the spike, because the antioxidant content slows how quickly the caffeine is broken down. Sip it over a few minutes rather than drinking it fast. With two servings a day, take the second one by early afternoon so it isn't near bedtime.

Will I get bloated?

Some people do at first. You're introducing more daily fiber than your body is used to, and gas or bloating is a normal part of adjusting. It usually settles within two to three weeks. If it's bothering you, start with half a packet or take Balance without food for a few days.

Is this something I stay on forever?

That's up to you and what you're after. It's built as a sustainable everyday system rather than a short intervention — I've been using it daily since 2022. Nothing in it is habit-forming.

Can I use it if I'm pregnant or nursing?

Talk to your doctor or midwife first. There are alternative approaches in the member resources, and I'm happy to walk you through them — but that decision starts with your provider.

Where can I read the science?

Both products are listed on the Prescribers' Digital Reference at PDR.net, and Unicity publishes its research at unicityscience.org. I'd rather you read it yourself than take my word for it.

How do I refer someone?

Find your member ID in your account, share it, and have them enter it as a referral code at checkout on ufeelgreat.com. You get product credit when their order goes through.
