"I started working with Rye in May, and read the book. I noticed results within a few weeks. I've been at it now about 9 months and have dropped 3 pant sizes. I'm really excited about spring and summer so that I can wear sleeveless blouses and look fit! I dumped all of my old clothes on my sister-in-law and bought clothing in my new size.

The book offers sound, simple nutritional advice. It's easy to follow. The major change for me was the timing of meals. I make breakfast every morning now for my husband and myself, I have a snack around 9:30 or 10 eat again around noon and again around 3:30 and then eat dinner at 5:30 or 6:00. I limit my carbohydrate intake after lunch and I make sure that all of the Carbohydrates are complex.

I'm revising some old recipes with things like fat free sour cream and half and half and find that they are just as good as the full fat version. This is my new challenge."

"It’s hard to put into words how much Rye has taught me about nutrition and training. I’ll just say it has been amazing. I think we all assume we are eating right but in reality, we’re clueless. At least that’s what I discovered. I started training with Rye in Jan 08 and was getting good results but not as quickly as I wanted. I finally realized I did need his nutrition expertise, so in April I started following his nutrition plan. What a difference that made in my progress! I have gone from a size 8 to a 0 and my body fat has gone from 16.35% to 11.14%....you get the point. These results could have come from training alone but by changing my nutrition (and by drinking lots and lots of water!), my results were truly accelerated. My only regret is that I didn’t start this sooner. Stay tuned… I’m not finished yet!"

"I received your book. Very informative. Good stuff!!"

"I'm about 1/2 way through your book - great stuff!"

"Lets start with the fact that I'm 54 years old. I had resigned myself to the fact that I would gain the obligatory 3 to 5 pounds a year for the next ten years and be one of those fat tubs of goo that couldn't walk nine holes on a golf course. With a little prodding from a good friend I bought "Egg Whites and Ham" and it has changed everything. The book makes it simple to understand how the body functions from a nutrition and exercise standpoint. I am eating more now than I ever have (and maybe for the first time, eating right) and have never felt better. Don't misunderstand. This is not a "magic pill". It takes dedication to follow the advise Rye gives us all. But if you follow the program you won't be disappointed. After a month of following the "Egg Whites and Ham" program I have lost 12 pounds and reduced my body fat by 4.2%. I have even gained some muscle back. (which at my age, I didn't think was possible)

Thank you Rye for sharing all your years of experience and knowledge. Your guidance has changed my life. I would write more but I have to go take care of my hydration needs."
