Hello from Bowie MD-MY first INCREDIBLE week!

[RawBrenda]

Hello,
I am from Bowie Md. I am a 66 year old female Remax realtor that is ready to lose weight and get some much needed energy! I have been doing Alissas' book plan for 1 week and I have lost 8 pounds and tripeled my energy already! ALL these changes in just 1 week!!!
My favorite recipes are #!-the golden flax crackers(a real diet support item) I make little sandwiches out of them with the #2-carrot pecan burgers cut into fourths and put w/EVO & tomatos&onions! WOW so good!
I do a green shake in the AM with a frozen banana,1/4 cup blueberries, 3 strawberrys,2 TBSP organic hemp powder,2 tbsp green powder and 3 dates!
#3- the pizza bread recipe is very good with the marinara sauce.(All are IN Alissas' book)
I am sleeping like a log now, great refreshing deep sleep. Before this diet,(1 week ago) I was was taking sleeping meds (tylonal PM) to be able to sleep.
NOW I am staying awake until 12-1am. Before I always went to bed at 9pm. Love my new energy level. It is like I have found the fountain of youth!
