Mellencamp shared a before and after photo of herself and elaborated on the program in the caption.

The reality star added, "Life isn’t easy. But when you know your worth, it’s definitely is easier. That’s what @goallinbyteddi has done for over 30,000 lives."
She noted, "And that’s what we can do for you. To prove it, I’m GIVING AWAY ONE 2-WEEK JUMPSTART to somebody who comments 'I’m ready!' below."
However, the social media users commented, "Lots of money spent at the plastic surgeon too."
Another person noted, "This program is about starving people with terrible coaches… waste of money."
Another user wrote, "I wish I could afford your coaching."
Another Instagram user penned, "No my worth is not numerical, but excuse me for saying that’s easy for you to say."
Another critic added, "Waste of money."
Another follower wrote, "I’m ready girl I’m just poor. I’ll be your before & after for freeeee."

Experts warn about Teddi Mellencamp's diet program 'ALL IN by Teddi'
Multiple dieticians and experts have warned about Teddi Mellencamp's diet program 'ALL IN by Teddi'.
According to Page Six, experts admitted that the All In program is not sustainable for healthy weight loss and could create longer-lasting issues with food.
Nutritionist Brigid Titgemeier told the outlet that healthy weight loss is defined as losing one to two pounds per week.
However, Mellencamp has boasted about participants dropping a staggering 43.5 and 89.2 pounds in six weeks.
The outlet also noted that the experts have said nutrition plans need to be individualized for safety and success.
However, the past participants revealed that Mellencamp provided everyone with the same straightforward list of a few different options for each meal.
Meanwhile, doctorate-prepared nurse practitioner and nutrition consultant Megan Rigby, who works with plastic surgery candidates ahead of their procedures noted, "Nutrition is not a one-size-fits-all."
