Dear Doug, My wife and I want to thank you for writing this book. i purchased it the first of January and we both have lost over 20lbs. so far with out any effort and eating as you suggested. Today I put on my size 34 jeans that I haven't worn for years. I am 50 years old and unemployed at the time but boy that makes me feel better about myself.
 
Once again, thanks a million, Terry & Denice

Hi Doug;  I added you to my friend's list on facebook.  I just wanted you to know how much your book has affected our lives.  Adriana just happend to go to Barns and Nobles book store and picked up your book, read it all in one day, and gave it to me to read, of course I was skeptical....but as I turned the pages (what a nice choice of paper, very classy) I connected with your message with regards to the sugar intake.  Some years ago I also read a book about how the Government subsidises sugar and promotes its use, and as the years went by I also tried several weight loss methods to include Atkins, weight watchers, and LA weight loss system.  You lose but you gain it right back because it is difficult to be restricted in all areas of your personal choices in food.   As we are all bombarded with so many comercials it all turns into a maze of confusion.  The illustrations plus the simplified way of explaining how detrimental sugar is to our health made me recognize clearly all the knowledge I had accumulated about the subject needed to be challenged, but most of all APPLIED at every meal.  I was so motivated and excited, true to what you said "I found hope once again" that a solution was in my own hands.
  Thanking you once again for taking an interest in all people....
 
Sincerely,
Nora Lilia Quintanilla Brise�o

Dear Doug,

I have struggled with my weight all my life.  There has never been a way that I have found to keep the weight off once I lost it.  When I read this book (my brother told me about it), all my failures started making sense.  I told my sister in Oregon about it and she also started this.  We have been on this for about a month now and I cannot believe the difference.  I have only lost 10 pounds, but I have lost 3 sizes.  I have gone from a 22-24 to a 16-18 in some styles and I feel great!  I feel like I'm shrinking from the inside out and all over.  I have bought the crisp bread and wondered if this is real important or if there is a significance with it.  It says appetite control on the package and is 50% of the recommended for fiber.  Is that why?  I am too chicken to send a picture, but will when I am down a little more. 

I read your book in 36 hours and started immediately.  I just got back from seeing my sister in Oregon and when I see her next, I will be a decent size again.  When we looked at just the Starbucks coffee, we had 117 carbs before eating breakfast some mornings previously.  I have to say that this book is in plain English and easily understood and has brought new meaning to my life again. 

Thank you sooooooooooo much, 

Lori

Dear Doug, I've been drinking a couple of glasses of wine each night...pretty good size goblets. Will the wine affect my weight loss?
