About the 12-Fix Group Challenges

  • The 12-Fix Challenge is a 12-week structured group program to help you adopt the 12-Fix Plan. Every week a new “Fix” is introduced into your everyday routine and points are awarded. Program includes:

    • Weekly virtual dietitian-led training sessions.

    • A copy of the 12 Fixes to Healthy book.

    • 12 Fixes app with exclusive access to track & view progress.

    • Daily support & accountability via your group’s communication platform.

  • This dietitian-led, evidence-based 12 Fixes to Healthy Group Challenge will help improve your health, help you lose excess inches, strengthen immune defenses, protect and build muscle, stabilize blood sugar levels, improve cholesterol and blood pressure, reset gut health, improve focus and productivity, help slow down cognitive decline and help you feel better overall.

    Participating with your friends, family, or coworkers adds a sense of camaraderie, support, and fun as you adopt positive lifestyle habits together. A survey of past participants indicated that 99% were glad they joined and would recommend the 12-Fix Challenge to a friend.

  • There is also a lot of flexibility in this 12 Fixes Program, so diet restrictions and preferences are easy to weave into the Fixes. The 12 Fixes to Healthy Plan integrates a Mediterranean, whole-food lifestyle with food timing, exercise, sleep, eating ergonomics, and mindful eating.

  • Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Judes Scharman Draughon MS, RDN, takes you through each Fix with a weekly virtual check-in meeting (that will also be recorded for you to view at your convenience).

    This challenge program is DOABLE and SUSTAINABLE! You start with just one Fix and add the Fixes one at a time over the 12 weeks. Plus, doing the Fixes 80% of the time gives you full points, so there is wiggle room!



    This challenge uses the "12 Fixes to Healthy" book (included) and the simple-to-use app, 12 Fixes, to track the Fixes and tabulate challenge points (Google Play and Apple stores).

  • “Judes does an excellent job in the book "12 Fixes to Healthy" of explaining the 12 "fixes" that most of us don't really follow. Her approach gives just enough scientific explanation but gives plenty of the practical advice needed to be successful. I got a group of 6 friends to do her Challenge group with me, which made it easier to stick with the program and support each other plus, a big bonus was sharing new recipes! I have had more energy throughout the day and felt less hungry during this challenge program. After week 11, I have lost 3 inches and feel great! Also, my cholesterol levels have improved! I now have a new way of living/eating healthy and will stick with it. I highly recommend the book and doing a 12-week challenge with Judes!”

  • "Ending up losing 20 lbs and eating habits have totally changed. I have been to a couple of doctors, and they are quite impressed. I hope you are well, and thank you for coming into my life!"

    - Melanie C.

  • “The 12 Fixes to Healthy Plan in the book "12 Fixes to Healthy" was simple and easy to follow! We have never felt hungry and now feel like we are our healthiest selves for retirement. My husband has lost over 6 inches around his middle after just 8 weeks in the 12-week challenge and has more energy, leading to more exercise. He is more fit than he has been in 25 years! My A1C level is normal for the first time in years. This is a plan we can do forever; it's our new normal.”

    — Cara P.

  • "This 12 Fixes challenge is awesome and has helped me in many ways. I had many wrong ideas about dieting, but I appreciated the "be patient, don't beat yourself up" approach that resonated throughout the challenge. Following even some of the fixes got me results. Thanks for the coaching during the challenge. I feel like I've graduated to a new and improved lifestyle!"
