As many others have said, "I can't thank you enough!!"
I was diagnoses with erosive gastritis about 2 months ago and was given pills to take. I went to the internet to see what foods I could and could not eat and when I put in "erosive gastritis diet" the first thing to pop up was your web site, "Great Taste No Pain" so I started reading it and it sure made sense to me. That was the beginning of a new life for me. I feel great, like you said I lost the heart burn and gained a ton of energy and actually finally lost weight. I was sleeping great and when my friends called on the phone they asked, "who is this?" Several of my friends have asked me what I was doing, after I shared with them, they also purchased your system.
When I had my visit with my Dr. he said, I can tell, you feel great" before I could even say anything, he said he could tell by the sparkle in my eyes that I was much better. I shared with him what I was doing and to my surprise he actually took the papers I brought with me about your program and said he was going to read it. Maybe (through your program and its results) I have converted a doctor.
The best thing about your program is that it is so easy to follow and I never feel deprived. I'm rarely ever hungry, in fact I can't remember the last time I was hungry. I do not have to spend countless hours deciding and writing down what I can and can not eat. It doesn't matter where I go or for what event, this program always works. I don't consider this a diet, it is a life style. I feel so great I never want to return to my old eating patterns.
Thank you again!

Hi,
I am new to your program but had a serious acute attack of gastritis. I didn't want to go to the doctor as I was out of work, so tried all the over the counter remedies. They didn't work! This attack was the worst I have ever had as I couldn't eat at all and if I did I almost would throw up.
I started looking on the internet and found your site and applied everything. I could only eat a little bit and actually went days without much food. The pain subsided right away and after 1 and 1/2 weeks I could actually sleep. I am still taking it easy on the food but every day is better.
I didn't know you could have symptoms like throwing up, very fatigued, headache, upper back pain, belching etc. I had them all!!
Luv,

Good Morning Sherry,
I am now on my 6th day of the Great Taste No Pain plan and feeling so great I can't begin to explain.
My husband won't commit fully, but at dinner time he has no choice. I told him if he doesn't like my way of eating he can go to the neighbors or to a restaurant for dinner. So he has decided to eat the food and learn to enjoy it. He has been eating this way for about 2 days now and is not complaining.
I'm tired of hospitals and doctors. I do have a stent in my main artery and every time I have got pains near my heart I ended up in the hospital, only this time to find out I have gastritis pretty bad.
I'm so glad I found this out and found you. You’re my life saver. I love you so much for helping me. Have a great day.

Sherry,
Last year I had developed H Pylori. I was put on antibiotics for two weeks and it did disappear but to my disappointment the stomach troubles continued. I thought it was heartburn even thought it didn't go away with TUMS. It was so bad I had symptoms with drinking water.
I contacted a gastroenterologist who scoped me and told me I had Chronic Gastritis. I was put on multiple medications from Prevacid, Prilosec, Protonix, and lastly Nexium. No medication kept me symptom free for longer than 3 weeks. The medication was at first once a day then up to twice and when I broke through that they changed the medication. Finally with the Nexium I was told to take Calcium supplements as the Nexium would not allow the Calcium to be properly absorbed in my system GREAT!!!!!!! Now I had to worry about my bones, muscles and heart. I refused to continue taking Nexium and found your web site.
I have to say I was skeptical at first as nothing seemed to work for me. I followed your Great Taste No Pain program for the first 4 days and my symptoms got worse. I kept calling and was told to be patient and keep going. To my amazement after 5 days of eating properly my symptoms disappeared. I have been on the program for about eight weeks now and only have had one episode where my symptoms returned and I think it was because I cheated for a couple of days.
I weaned myself off my Nexium slowly and my gastroenterologist was amazed. I am planning to have a follow up visit with her in the near future to go over my success.
I truly want to thank you for helping me. I have struggled in the past year with my symptoms and am THRILLED that I found something besides Medications to help.
I am very hopeful now and my fears of developing some kind of Cancer from the Gastritis have been relieved.
Thank you again

Hi Sherry,
I am emailing you to say thank you so much. I have had H pylori for months now and have been unwell for all that time. I had tests done several weeks ago and the results were gastritis and the h pylori. The doctors gave me several different tablets which seemed to help but over a week ago I was admitted to hospital with pain and black stools.
I am taking the medication but a great believer in the alternate. I found your website on the Internet .I have followed your Great Taste No Pain plan for over a week now and I really feel a lot better. The menu is so easy to follow. I can’t thank you enough and have passed your email address on to several clients with tummy problems.
Kind regards,

Hi Sherry,
Like many people I thought your "relief in 1 day" pitches too hard to believe. I looked at your recipes and realized that I was already doing much to help myself but I was still having problems, having been recently diagnosed with moderate gastritis. Historically speaking I was diagnosed with GERD over 25 years ago, went on their regimen, and was "cured" or so I thought, not having any signs and symptoms for all of those years. That was until this year, when I developed problems again. Problems not relieved by conventional methods- Prilosec and antacids. Indeed, the Prilosec seemed to make things worse! For now, I have tried a modification of your diet. By simply eating more slowly, I am now eating less and suffering less. One simple little thing has made a big difference. I have eliminated or cut down on trigger foods that get me in trouble. It indeed boils down to listening to your body. I occasionally still have problems but when I go to see my Doctor for a follow up to my recent endoscopy, I will beg off of the conventional treatment, knowing that your method is more natural/cheaper. I have been on a good diet for many years now, rich in fiber, whole grains, fruit and vegetables and only one meat meal a day but I may have to look closer at combinations of food to completely and totally abolish the occasional acid ( but no pain ) that I experience.
Respectfully submitted-

Dear Sherry
I thank God for your eating plan. 3 weeks ago a young man prayed for me to be healed in our church service. As a result of his prayer, which was very insightful, the next day I decided to look up Gastritis and Diverticulis Disease on the internet, as I believed that Jesus would indeed be my healer. I straight away found your site and started the plan the next day. I came off Nexium 40mg on the second day, I immediately felt better, and have not felt this well in over 2 years. No more stomach pangs, or lower abdomen gripes. No more excessive gas. No more chest pain. I am also losing weight. I am so thrilled. I told the young man who had prayed for me on the 2nd week and he was delighted that God had answered his prayer for me. I confided in him that I was still a little afraid that it would all come back, so he prayed for me again not to be afraid! I am over 3 weeks on now, and still delighted. Thank you so much for passing on this knowledge. I believe that God intended me to find your site, and since reading all the testimonies, I don’t think I am the only one He leads to your site.
Thank God and thank you Sherry. Bless you.

Hello Sherry,
I know you have received thousands of these emails. But I wanted to thank you so much. I'm 47 yrs old, and have had IBS symptoms my entire life. Three weeks ago I started with severe abdominal pain. I couldn't work, I couldn't eat. After a week of no let up, my husband took me to the emergency room. I couldn't take it anymore. There I was diagnosed with severe gastritis. The doctor told me to go on the standard, bland diet, with nexium and Percocet for pain. The generic of nexium was $62.00 and I couldn't afford it. So I started taking ronitadine 6 x a day. It took the edge off, but no real relief. I still couldn't eat or drive, let alone go to work. It was that bad. So I started searching the internet for digestive treatments and I found you! The meal plan was a Godsend. I implemented the plan with what I had on hand to eat. I was so relieved with my very first meal that I cried. By the third day, all the pain and distention was completely gone. I never heard about acidosis before and what it can do to the body. I also have diabetic neuropathy and fibromyalgia. I was popping so much acetaminophen over the years that the ER doctor told me my liver was stressed. However, since following this plan and reducing my body acids, the pain from those two conditions have all gone away. I can sleep at night now. And no more drugs except for the insulin! Even my blood sugars are more stable. Thank you so very, very much.

Dear Sherry,
I have been on your plan for 3 weeks and have not had to take a single pill. I had been taking Nexium for 3 yrs and then I started getting more problems and the doctor upped the dosage to 2X40mg a day. I was ok for a few months and then the pain in my stomach came back so I was changed to Zantac. That was ok for a few months then the pain started again. I was so frustrated I went on the internet and found your plan. I was diagnosed with chronic gastritis and then 3 ulcers on my esophagus. I was told if I did not take more tablets I would get stomach cancer.
I have stopped all the pills and I have no pain in my stomach. I still get a little heartburn occasionally but that is because I sometimes do not stick to plan 100%, however, I am working on it and feel sooooooooooooo much better.
Thank you so much!

Hi Sherry,
I am feeling so much better, after 5 days on your plan. I purchased your GTNP program last year, after being diagnosed with mild gastritis and moderate diverticulosis. At first I followed it religiously and was pain free for months. I also lost 38 pounds, without feeling hungry, but got lazy and reverted back to some of my bad eating habits. The pain returned in force, and I have now learnt my lesson. This time, I intend to remain on
your plan for life. I have my favorites from your recipe book, particularly your garlic green beans and Italian bean soup, and my grandson loves your pumpkin cake.
