- Raw Foods: Losing Weight and Feeling Great(Contest entry! Details in April 2008 newsletter)
Ten years ago, I met this wonderful lady who ate all raw foods. At the time I was new to the idea of eating only raw foods. I didn’t think anyone else in the world ate this way. I was amazed at how young she looked. She had beautiful long hair and not a wrinkle on her. At the time I believed it was genetics. I was very jealous.

- I was Told My Liver Disease was Incurable: I Turned to Raw Foods and Saved my Life(Contest entry! Details in April 2008 newsletter)
For years I had terrible stomach pains, and for years eating certain foods made me sick. I became very fatigued, developed itchy skin, high cholesterol, thyroid problems, cramping in my legs and my spleen was enlarged. My blood work and liver counts were all messed up, but doctors could not figure out what was wrong with me. My gallbladder was removed and yet I still had stomach aches when I ate.

- Raw Foods and Clear Skin: Irritating Little Red Dots(Contest entry! Details in April 2008 newsletter)
What has raw food done for me? Sure I’ve lost weight, started running marathons, lowered my resting heart rate, had more energy, etc., but the most important thing as far as I’m concerned (and call me vain if you wish), was the significant reduction of the appearance of a genetic case of keratosis pilaris, also known as ‘annoying little red dots on the upper arms.’

- Don’t Get Even–Just Go Raw (Contest entry! Details in April 2008 newsletter)
At 35 I had beautiful waist length hair, smooth skin and was told I looked 26. I had been a model so I was really into glamour and looking as perfect as I possibly could. Then one day I became very ill. I developed skin rashes all over my face and body so severe that I could not even wash my face because my skin burned and peeled off. I had migraine headaches with severe vomiting. Suddenly, all the glamour was gone.

- Dry Fast and Water Drinking (3/17/2008)

Hi, Tonya
THANK YOU so much for coming to Tallahassee again… Thanks to your ideas on water drinking I have overcome an unconscious practice of drinking water even when not thirsty just because water is “good for you.”…

- The Desire to Become Beautiful and Fit is Simply the Natural Evolutionary Instinct Steering Us onto the Correct Path (03/16/08)

Dear Tonya,
I am just so thrilled with your new book, ‘Quantum Eating’! Not only do I praise your magnificent achievement, but I also have to give myself a little pat on the back for intuitively knowing that this book was going to be a brilliant and revolutionary work that I simply had to buy. Mind you—I have not bought a new raw food book in over 20 years!

- I Want to be Happy:the Depression Bomb Hits me Way too Often (03/15/08)

I saw a quote of yours on another website; I was interested in you right away. When you came to St. George I missed you, but you left a pile of books [Your Right to Be Beautiful: Miracle of Raw Foods] at the Health Nut, so I bought one. I couldn’t put it down. I love your personal story, and the way you explain beauty. Your book was very motivating in a way I had never been before. Also, you’re so intelligent and fun to read.
