The Fat Flush Plan

Summary: Healthy and Happy
Review: To begin with, I would like to thank Ann Louise for the opportunity to meet and speak with her at the conference in Syracuse, NY with the Nature Thyme sponsor. I have lost 80 lbs and am wearing a size 8 (from a 22).

The changes which I made were entirely based on Ann Louise's nutritional advise. I began eating healthy and found that I no longer craved carbs or high sugar foods. I now eat for nutrition and not "just because it looks or smells good." I enjoy the taste of the foods on the plan and have found the cookbook invaluable.

There are many changes that I have made in my lifestyle thanks to the Fat Flush Plan. In regards to food-Plan my meals, shop for fresh produce and cook with very little fat. In regards to other areas of my lifestyle-I LOVE to shop. The first time I went shopping after losing the first 30 pounds, I cried when I was able to shop in the "regular" size clothes and not the large women's size department. What a thrill!

The health improvement is what was the main motivation to start this program. My sister had heard of this plan and thought it might help with the frequent episodes of pain which I had from fibromyalgia. I was limited to the amount of time spent gardening or family activities as a result of the pain. I was frustrated to not be able to enjoy any physical activity without pain/fatigue. Daily routine functions often were enough to trigger an attack. Now-I walk, garden, swim, and participate in activities without pain. I am able to work at my job as a nurse without complications of the fibromyalgia. Other improvements include no further problems with allergies or rosacea which I have had since my early twenties.

Last Christmas my 4 sisters and mother surprised me with a shopping spree! I have had the support from my husband, children, family and friends for which I will always be grateful. I can't begin to thank Ann Louise enough for the changes this had made in my life.

Sincerely,
Diane Amidon

Summary: It works!
Review: In April of 2003, I heard about the Fat Flush plan and bought the books from Amazon.com. They stayed on my nightstand unopened for about 5 months. I had glanced at them, but I really hadn't committed myself until I heard Ann Louise speak at Auntie's in Spokane. Many of the physical problems she had described in the lecture were conditions that I had. In addition, many of the people in attendance were glowing with health and energy. I decided to give it a try for at least two weeks. By the end of that time, I had lost 2 dress sizes and 15 pounds. I have been "fat flushing" ever since.

Since that time, I've lost 37 pounds and have gone from a size 18 to a size 10. I've regained the energy that had been lost to me for so many years, and have experienced great improvement in my complexion, hair and skin tone. I enjoy food much more now that I am making good selections with whole natural foods. I really never found the Fat Flush Plan to be especially restrictive since the payoff was increased energy, and I never felt that I was starving or deprived. I occasionally "treat" myself, however these foods are no longer a significant part of my diet and I don't miss them. As a byproduct, my husband has lost 22 pounds just by eating the foods I prepare.

Thanks Ann Louise, for putting it all together for me in one book. You go girl!

Summary: A lifestyle plan that "fine tunes"
Review:
Although I've never had a weight problem, as the years were passing by, I noticed that despite my same workout routines and healthy eating habits, the pounds were creeping on as well as "dimples" appearing in unruly places.

Following the Fat Flush plan is finally the answer to my frustrations and futile attempts at being rid of those age related problems. The dimples have disappeared, energy is improved and I've never felt better in years. I feel like my body now has a chance to metabolically do what it was created to do without all the toxins impeding its processes.

A fine program for those who both need to loose fat and those who don't! We can all benefit from a good cleansing program.
