The last couple of days have been something out of a movie and quite symbolic to say the least.
It all started on Thursday. As you know, we went live with the Dr. Ann Wigmore Home Study course and thousands of people flooded to the site only to cause…
THE WEBSITE TO CRASH!
Apparently, because we had “too much traffic” (over 15,000+ people waiting in line) visiting the website at one time, it caused our site to literally go AWOL.
As in like “Page Not Found.”
All day Friday, we tried desperately to get the website back up and after four grueling hours the hosting company finally fixed the problem. (otherwise people will wonder why it took 4 hours to hit reboot. Duh.)
So the next day, Saturday, things didn’t slow down a bit. With the phone glued to my ear and me flexing my keyboard skills at a million words a minute, things could have not gotten any more crazy.
Until… (this is where it gets really weird)
A TORNADO STRUCK MY TOWN!
Actually, several tornadoes. And a hailstorm. Like the one’s you see on TV that just annihilate cities. Yes, that was it.
So what happened?
It ripped through the Midville (my town) farmlands, like a hot knife cutting through butter. Taking out wheat fields, barns, a church, and knocking down hundreds - thousands - of trees.
And if having the website go down, getting in thousands of emails, and tons of phone calls wasn’t enough…
MY ELECTRIC & INTERNET WENT DOWN FOR 16 HOURS!
Whew… quite a rush of events, right?
But I’m glad these events happened. For to me it was very symbolic of things to come.
Just like how a tornado destroys the old and makes room for the new, shockingly enough this is just like your life.
Out with the old foods that have made us all sick and in with the new, “live,” fresh foods that give us new life.
This series of events reminded me of the changes raw foods made in my life.
Are you ready for a change in your life?
You probably wouldn’t be reading this if you weren’t looking for a change, a new, “fresh” life.
Well, I’m here to say that you CAN change.
You can start today to get healthy.
You can lose that weight.
You can eliminate illness with some changes in your diet, as thousands of people have done before.
You may have heard some amazing stories on the blog about people changing their lives.
Don’t you think it’s time to change yours?
What Dr. Ann has taught over the last 35+ years has not changed.
IT WORKS!
It will work for you.
In my email the other day about the new, unannounced bonus, many people snatched up their copy. In only a couple more days we’ll probably be sold out.

This message today is slightly hard for me to write.
I can’t BELIEVE all the highs and lows from the past two days.
I’m going to explain what happened, and then why I’m truly sorry…
First…
The orders that came through were OVERWHELMING. I’d like to thank everyone who ordered from the bottom of my heart.
Words cannot articulate how much your life is going to change for the better. And I’m truly honored to be able to be a part of that. :)
In fact, we got so many orders that our server was SHUT DOWN.
Who would’ve thought? We actually had TOO MUCH TRAFFIC to the website and our website host thought we were doing something shady.
I can’t believe it!
That’s my first apology. I’m really sorry for those of you who had technical difficulties. We finally got everything fixed - but after the site was shut down for four hours.
I know some of you tried to order, because we got an influx of customer support emails. I’m really, really sorry for that.
I’d also really like to thank you guys for getting “me”. I acted really out of character, and I’m honestly a little ashamed of myself.
You know when you get really excited about something that’s important to you, but maybe not as important to other people?
Well… I think I did that.
See, I get so PASSIONATE about Dr. Ann’s teachings. I’ve seen it help so many people… and so when I know I have an audience, I’ll just keep going on and on.
But I was reflecting back, and I thought that maybe I came off a little too strong.
The last thing I ever wanted to do was come across as a “sleazy salesman” or anything like that.
It’s just hard when you’re so excited about something.
I’m glad that you guys saw through it - as evidenced by all those orders - but I still wanted to make sure I made that apology.
And as a thank you, as well as an apology to everyone who tried to order but the site was shut down, I’m going to do something special.
See, I had another product idea for down the road. It was going to be a high priced monthly raw recipe meal plan. But I feel like the right thing to do, right now, is to give it away. Everyone who already ordered will automatically get this. And the next 300 people (I say 300 because that’s how many copies we have left) will also get access to it.
Since it’s something we’ve been working on we don’t have it complete as of yet, but at the end of the month you’ll get the first monthly meal plan edition. :)
Please don’t let the fact that this is free devalue it at all. It’s worth a LOT. I just really feel like the right thing to do is to give it away.
And again - I REALLY don’t want to sound like a slimy salesman… but if you’re interested, please make sure to order right away. We do only have 300 copies left (who would’ve thought so many people would have purchased!?).
On Monday I’ll share some stories with you from people who already purchased. I’ve been getting so many “I’m so excited!” emails, and they’re truly invigorating.
But anyway, thank you again. For your orders, for your trust, and for reading this long email.
To your health,
Jim
Website shut down for “TOO MUCH TRAFFIC?”

That’s what the web host company said to me.
Turns out, that when you have thousands of people visiting your website at one time, the servers take a hit and this causes it to well… basically crash.
This “crash” held down the website for about 4 hours today. Four long hours grueling hours. Waiting and pulling your hair out really don’t go together…
Anyhow, the site is back up and running like a champ!
I want to apologize to everyone who tried to order the course. It’s been a wild ride these last 2 days and a response that I never EVER expected. I know a lot of people were waiting to get their copy of the course and I can assure you that you order will be processed as fast as possible.

Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow and I have some special *videos* to give you early in the week.
See you soon,
Jim
