Inspiration

Hi Doug,
I wanted to take some time and thank you for being so inspirational with regards to my personal health. In fact, you may have saved my life. Last year you recommended a health program to me that was incredible. Before I started the program, I had my blood evaluated. My impaired fasting glucose came in at 102. Research now suggests that if it is between 100 and 125 consistently, diabetes will most likely develop within 10 years. That is where I drew the line. I immediately started exercising, changed my diet and lost 30 pounds. I have had my glucose tested twice since and the readings come in at 75 which is where it should be.

I cannot tell you how your inspiration has changed my life. I have so much energy, in fact, some days, I run twice. What is amazing is that by following your advice, the weight melted off of me. I went from 214 down to 185 pounds.

So many people today want a quick fix, looking for that holy grail diet. There are plenty of popular diets available, i.e, Atkins, South Beach, etc. The problem is that you lose weight that you gain back. However, your approach made more sense. Eat healthy, avoid sugars and exercise. I have been doing this for about a year and my weight fluctuates between 185 and 187 everyday.

I appreciate you being so pro-active with my health. Maybe I can save someone's life!!!!!!!!!

Thank you
Gary Cassell
