]]> Comment on Fit Club still cruising -in 3rd week! by Diana http://blog.louieskids.org/2008/06/26/fit-club-still-cruising-in-3rd-week/#comment-12 Diana Fri, 27 Jun 2008 16:46:59 +0000 http://blog.louieskids.org/?p=20#comment-12 Hi, I saw you on Rachel Ray. My Daughter is 20 now and oh how I wish I had known about you when she was younger. She is just not able to lose weight, Im sure she is over 350 lbs. She was around 320 last yr but has gained quite a bit since then. Even though she is very large, she is always up beat, and seems happy. But she says she privately cries and hates herself. I wish she could afford to attend a gym but she doesnt have much money. If only she could find a mentor, I firmly believe it would help her. (Mom's sometimes dont get to far in that department)I have apparently not been much help. :{ Im so glad that you are helping these children, as soon as I can, I will be donating. Perhaps someday, my Daughter will find help and be able to lose. Please keep up the good work, shame there are not more people like you in this world. Thanks for sharing, take care. Diana Hi,

Reading thru it I came upon the videos re: Louies Kids on RachaelRay.com. Kudos to you for your strong efforts "one child at a time". I was reflecting on how unfortunate it is that the cost of their (Wellspring) outstanding program is cost prohibiitve to so many and how could it be replicated for the masses. I had recently spoken with a friend about HerbalLife's "Weight Loss Challenge" program and it stimulated my thoughts in the direction of being able to create such a program for youth. Any Thoughts?It was great to come to your website today and see this article. Thank You I was just sent a link to the Wellspring Academy by a friend last night.

I have 3 kids of my own and I am trying to keep them active but the problem comes after bed time when one of my kids is sneaking food to his room to eat late at night. I try to stay away from fried foods but I work 2nd shift so my husband is doing the cooking for the kids. I just want some ideas for healthier foods that the kids would like as well as myself because I am overweight.

I hope this show brings other opportunities to get your message out there. I feel so fortunate to have Kevin at Wellsprings. My heart aches for the parents of children less fortunate. How can we help them all? I know the pain of watching my son on a downward spiral towards death. Louis you are the angel God has sent to help save children in pain because of their obesity. I hope Kevin and I can find a way to help other kids in pain from obesity in our community when he comes home. Your mission is such a great way to honor your dad. I'm sure he is proud of you and pleased that you are helping spare children from the pain he endured. Hi Louis,
