"Hi Dr. Frank,
"I hope that you are fine.
I will never stop thanking God for you, for wonderful
Transformation He has brought me through you.
"I read an inspiring
article you sent for me about someone's SSBs, and I
could identify myself with some, so I thought as a
student, I should write my SSBs- which you can share- so
that students in your WLGW programme can identify theirs
too.
"These are some that I
discovered, am still in the process of identifying more,
am very keen, I must tell you.
1. When am studying and
feel asleep, the only thing that keeps me awake is food,
so I eat (it was not true- i slept right after eating)
2. When am exhausted and
bored from studies, food is the best relaxer.
3. When what am studying
and and topic proves difficult and stresses me, food
consoles me.
4. Food is the best
accampaniment when relaxing while watching movies.
5. Fast foods are the best
for any student bash we have.
6. Sweets and chocolates
help me concentrate when studying.
"Dr. Frank, am not sure
these are all, as I told you, am still trying to
identify some, if there still exist others. Thanks a lot
for all the other articles, God willing, one day I send
you my pictures so you can see the progress i have made.
"God Bless you. Regards,
Yvonne - Nairobi, Kenya

"Hi Dr. Frank,
"It's been a very long
while since I last emailed you, but I do still
appreciate all those you send to me.
"The last year has been a
very stressful one due to financial circumstances, etc.,
however I can joyfully report that I have lost a total
of 20 pounds so far, while not drastically changing my
eating habits at all.
"I am continually working
on renewing my inner self and am hanging on to the
knowledge that God dearly loves me and has a wonderful
plan for my life.
"Thank you for your
emails. I plan to read the WLGW manual again to refresh
my memory and hopefully spark further new changes as
well.
"God bless you."

like mine was. I started out at 213 pounds and if it

"Dear Dr Frank,
"… I'm on the first week
only, but I take my time, I don't rush. I really study
your notes and underline and meditate on what is being
said.
"Just after 5 days I am
so absorbed and have found a new revelation of myself
and my relationship with our Saviour.
"It's something I cannot put into words. I am so
looking forward to being a complete and whole person.
"Thank you Dr Frank for teaching me the most important
lesson of my life.....

"Hello Dr. Smoot,
"I ordered the WLGW about
one year ago and recently started on my journey to
healing, peace, wisdom and achieving my right weight.
"The WLGW program is the
biggest blessing that I have every had in my life!!!
The program is truly life changing. Thank you for
sharing your wisdom.
"God is faithful and just
to restore us but I never imagined how "light" his way
truly is. I pray that you get your own talk show and
become an instant Millionaire (maybe I can co-host with
you when I reach my right weight a year from now :) )
"I pray that God blesses
you exceedingly and more abundantely than you can ever
imagine or think. I will keep you posted on my
progress.
"I have lost between 10-15
pounds during the past month You are awesome!!!
"Thanks again!!!

"Hi Dr. Frank,
"I have already gone from
a size 20 to a 14-16 pants and shirt size. Praise God!
"What I am hoping to do is
to get the program in my spirit, then teach from your
program to women in our church.
"I Thank God for the
Revelation that He has given you on this matter, and
pray that God continue to bless your work, and that all
of the blessing of God be on you
"In Christ

"Dr. Frank, since I had
the program, I lost eleven pounds. I'm already feeling
good. I'm getting better feelings about myself. I'm
starting to see myself as God sees me.
"I just celebrated a birthday on November 14. I had a
couple of friends over. They are blind like me. We had
fun. They gave me an electronic keyboard to play music
on, and I'm really enjoying it.
"This past Saturday, I just broke up with my boyfriend,
but that didn't cause me to eat like there's no
tomorrow. I'm taking it quite well. We were talking on
the phone, and I said something, and he got angry and
hung up on me.
"I tried to make up
with him, but he just ignores my messages. I left my
last one Monday morning. If he wants to be that way,
I'll just leave him in God's hands. When I would see
him, he would always tell me I was beautiful, no matter
how fat I was. He is partially sighted.
"Otherwise, I'm doing fine. I don't need John anymore,
if he's going to be hard-hearted.
"Dr. Frank, I wish you and your family a happy and
blessed Thanksgiving. I have so many things to be
thankful for. I'll write again soon.
"Yours in Christ,

"Hi Dr. Frank, it's Lisa
from California.
"I wanted to give a quick
update. I lost 32 pounds almost a year ago and kept it
off.
"I have been wanting to
lose more and have had trouble and you said I was doing
well and to keep moving forward. I think I stumbled on
something. All of a sudden I am eating more in the
morning and less at night and I think I am losing again.
:-)
"No one told me to do
this. I just started doing it. I think God was guiding
me to do this. The other thing is I ate pasta one day
and felt terrible. LOL
"I think God is speaking
to me about what foods do not go best with my body. :-)
I am excited about this and am trying to pay attention
to these things.
"I guess that is a form of
self care and self love. Honoring the body. Thanks !!!

"Good Morning Dr. Smoot,
"I started reading the
program last week and hit a family crisis and stopped
reading... well I was bent and determined to start back
so I did... this past Monday.
"Something very different
has happened to me. I have been on ALL types of diets
my 48 years of life. Including gastric bypass surgery -
which was for a health reason not for my looks.
"I don't feel the same
once I have started reading your book. Its a calm.. a
SERIOUS calm. Like God has His hand on my shoulder and
everything I read is sinking in and making a lot of
sense to me.
"I haven't even thought
about the work DIET since I started reading your book.
I look forward to reading more and more. I will keep
you updated :-) Thank you so much for caring.

"Good Morning Dr. Smoot,
"I am what you would call
a DIET HasBeen. I have tried almost every diet under
the sun and would start out with such enthusiasm just
knowing this was the end-all fix-all to my weight
problems.
"They never worked.. oh
don't get me wrong they would last for a little while
then "reality" would kick back end and having to deal
with things with life and here we go again. Gaining the
weight back with a smiling face... and here I sit
miserable again.
"With your book even
though I am only on the 1st week the difference is
amazing. I am not beating myself up over food and I am
not dwelling on that word DIET. It doesn't scare me or
intimidate me anymore.
"Thank you Dr. Smoot. You
can share any of these words with anyone, if you think
it will help.
"God Bless You.
Linda Cook - Aiken, SC

"Dr. Smoot – started
eating properly on Oct. 19 - today – 10 lbs
gone!!!
"When I took the focus off
of the diet programs, the supplements, the food etc. as
being an answer to my weight loss etc. and put the
responsibility on myself –not a product, not a program –
me and God that made the difference.
"Now I know I will get to
my goal weight – I know! I know if what is going in
my mouth is good or bad for my body.
"Did a Food Anonymous
program once – answered to a counselor – lost a lot of
weight. But when I quit going there and didn’t have the
counselor anymore to answer to, and had not learned to
answer to myself and God – guess what – all the weight
went back on.
"All the excuses and then
some were in full operation. Not anymore!

"Dr. Frank,
"Just an update to let you
know I have now lost a total of 25 pounds by following
the insights given in WLGW!
"To say I am truly excited
is an understatement. What has also been amazing is how
my desire for junk-food, unhealty foods, and unhealthy
portions has practically vanished now that I desire to
honor God with my body - even more than I use to desire
unhealthy food.
"I am now half way to my
target weight of 175 and am confident that I will be
able to hit that goal very soon.
"Two months ago, I had no
plan or hope that I could lose 50 pounds. What a
difference these truths have made in my health and my
spirit!
"Thank you once again for
your work on this material. It has been a true God-send.
"God bless,

"Dear Dr.Frank,
"I am from Taiwan and I was blessed to find your book on
internet. I only regret your book has no Chinese
translation.
"Thank you very much for sending the e-mails, it
definitely strengthen my belief;
"I had tried many diets
before, wanting a healthy body to honor God. I tried the
Hallelujah diet when I was 17, thinking if it is based
on Bible I should be fine but ended up with amenorrhea.
"I have only started
Weight loss in God's Way this month, though my weight
haven't changed but it is amazing that I can finally and
actually control myself !
"I had eating disorders
but after reading the first few chapters from your book,
I am so excited that I no longer is driven by food each
day.
"Thank you so much for
revealing the truth. My parents are so happy for me to
see how much I improved on dealing about food, but they
cannot read English otherwise they really want to read
your book as well.
"I look forward everyday
to receive your e-mail, it is an encouragement, feeling
your passion, I am motivated to keep up the
self-supported attitude.
"I am surprised that your
book did not only deal with weight loss but also improve
my eating disorder, I feel the power and use it to
become normal and can report to you that I am not afraid
of food.
"I know so many people
suffer with their weight here in Taiwan, and I truly
hope one day your book could be translated.
"God bless you.

"Dear Dr. Frank,
"Thank you for your inspiring letter and prompt reply. I
had learnt English in New Zealand when I was there
for high school three years ago.
"I was excited to receive your reply and shared it with
my parents immediately. Since I am 20 years old and is
still a student, there are still many things that I
depend on my parents.
"So I asked them about the translation, because my mom
has some excellence resources to pastors in Taiwan
whom are able to estamite and actually give the details
about any
questions you may have about translation.
"Taiwan's population is around 23 million, and
Christians are about 3~4 percent. (Chinese is the main
language also in Hong Kong and China).
"I may be young, but I am really passionate to live a
life that pleases the Lord. So when I am blessed by your
wonderful book, I am stirred to spread the "good news"
too.
"Your book helped me to
understand I am really worth to be healthy and
beautiful,
and that is how I overcome the fears about food.
"I can't say I shoot into
the sky immediately, but as I start to believe I am
God's marvelous creation, I am becoming more aware of
whom I really am, and that is more important than
loosing weight.
"I am not obsessed (159
cm/46kg) since I've always been on different diets; I
became a slave for my body. When I became sick, I
realize there is a word "die" in diet. I was unable to
find anything that could help me in Chinese so I
searched in English.
"WLGW is amazing because it actually deals with my
eating disorder. I know I mentioned this but I would
just like to thank you for that one more time.
"I had actually tried most of the diets you've mentioned
in the book: blood type, food combining, sufficient
exercise. But my weight still remained the same and I
thought it was just plateau.
But for years no matter how hard I try, my weight was
as stubborn as I was.
"So eventually I start
using harmful ways to lose weight.
"What I am trying to say
is your book reveal the real problem, and indeed "the
root" is the most important factor about life and weight
loss!
"I am exercising Weight
Loss in God's Way everyday and found myself facing
exactly the things the book had mentioned. Yes, my own
ego is blocking the progress.
"BUT, the thing I love reading your book is
that it stirs up my positive attitude to face any
challenge. I can hear myself say: I can do it
because God loves me.
"Funny there
are challenges everyday, but somehow I feel I am
alright, I will go through difficulties with peace.
"I will write to you again because I can feel the
boat is turning.
"God Bless you!
Chelsea Chen - Taiwan, China

"Dear Dr. Frank,
"The changes I am
experiencing on a daily basis are nothing short
of miraculous!
"I feel so good so
deserving of all life has to offer. No longer do I beat
myself over the head because of how the world would want
to treat me, I no longer belong in that game.
"I now live in a state of
peace and satisfaction knowing that I live as the Lord
has intended, in perfect harmony with the principles of
good mental and physical health.
"Like Yvonne I still have
not weighed myself but I can tell from my clothes that
my body is changing and I love the feeling. It is
incredible that all I needed to do was give up the
struggle and give it all over to God , in order to
achieve success in my weight loss.
"Once again thank you for
every lesson and every word of encouragement.
