I will start with thank you. A friend suggested your book. After several attempts to get me to read your book, I finally took a look and purchased Raw Food Life Force Energy and then another. It has changed my life. I had been overweight most of my life and planned on having the Lap-Band. Luckily, I was not a candidate and the docs recommended gastric bypass. I knew I would not have that procedure. But I say luckily because I then knew that I would have to make the change from within and not depend upon a crutch.
In addition I was turning 50 and realizing that I had to take the weight off myself and that was the impetus to change my lifestyle. So last March 2008, I started the 21-day program. My goal was to lose 50 lbs. by August (my 50th birthday). I have now lost 74 lbs. and would like to lose 30 more. It was much easier than I expected. This truly is a lifestyle change that has improved my health and appearance.
I am an optometrist and see most patients once a year and many of them ask me how I lost the weight. What diet did I follow? Most of them think that I had surgery. They are usually surprised when I tell them that I changed my eating habits and lifestyle. I explain to them that it is not a diet but a lifestyle. I then give them the name of your book.
It has not been the perfect journey and I do not expect it to have an end because it is the journey itself…the life force energy that propels me forward. Thank you. I continue to learn and, by the way, I look terrific, feel terrific, and people have noticed the “glow”…and I know it is the “good vibrations”…
Most sincerely,
Elaina
