Congratulations on your show. Loved it. I’d say more, but I’m off to the grocery store to buy the ingredients for the grilled chicken pecan salad :o). Way to go, my friend. Katie Jay Director, NAWLS Amy Olmsted August 2, 2009 Thanks Chef Dave! Congrats on your first show! Love the watermellon lesson. I look forward to watching and learning more! LDH August 2, 2009 Congratulations & Thank You, Thank YOU! This is so wonderful & needed. I love everything about WLSchannel. The only thing I would suggest is – it needs to be advertised more broadly. I found out from an email you sent from being a member on your site. My support groups weren’t aware of it either. Now they are & I’ll let as many as possible know. Looking forward to really using all this good info & resources to help me stay on track. I’m at a crossroad in my life and my 2yr post surgery, this is just what I need. Excited & looking forward to everything to come. Chef Dave I met you in Feb at the lightenup expo & you were very encouraging and real. You are a godsend. Continued Success & Thanks again. LDH stacey August 2, 2009 Great channel. Love it!!!!!!!
