Home Grown: California woman makes Yuma lettuce go viral

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - One woman from California claims she’s in part responsible for a growing demand for Yuma lettuce across America.

She lost 140 pounds eating giant salads, and those salads went viral on Facebook, landing her on eight magazine covers.

Thousands of people have lost weight following her, including 194 people who have lost at least 100 pounds.

Amanda Rose is the founder of the weight loss community, Eat Like a Bear, which helps hundreds of thousands of people lose weight by eating salads.
