Hi Doug... I saw you on 700 Club one evening and decided to buy your book. I have tried nearly every diet out there and even gastric bypass TWICE! Now, caring for my mother who has Alzheimer's, I am more sedentary and depressed than I have ever been. Both have done a number on my already high weight.  In the 2 years I have been caring for my mom I have gained about 100 pounds!  I had to buy a 'bariatric' scale so I could see where I started from... at 365 lbs. I am desperate!  
   Your book made sense to me and seemed it would be easy to follow. So far it has been.  I am already familiar with Walden Farms and CarbSmart.com and those stores have some wonderful items to help me shed those unwanted pounds.
   I have been on the new eating plan for only two days and just out of curiosity I had to weigh myself... 5.2 lbs gone already! Probably mostly water as I have been drinking water with a capful of lemon juice and a 1/2 teaspoon of Stevia in it.  Plain water I just don't drink so thought I'd try that.
  I'll keep you updated on my progress maybe once every 6 months or so.  I'm in it for the long haul! When I get my weight down some I can once again enjoy the activities of biking and swimming that I enjoy so much.  Right now it's difficult to even walk.  Wish me luck!
Sincerely,
Founditatlast (Diane)
