How You'll Succeed

Whether you are an old hand at the weight loss game, or have, at the very least, been on a dietbefore, the following scenario may sound all too familiar.
    Determined to succeed, you vowed to go about slimming down the "right" way. You stoppedeating red meat, cooked egg-white-only omelettes with no shortening in a Teflon pan, removedthe skin from chicken, ate your baked potato without butter or sour cream and consumed lots of pasta. Frozen yogurt, fruit and sherbet served as dessert. Your breakfast consisted of oatmeal and skim milk or else granola and a banana. A typical lunch was white-meat turkey on a roll and agenerous salad, hold the dressing.
    And you stuck with your low-fat regimen. You knew it was the right diet because your friendsand family congratulated you on your healthy habits. Yet somehow it never felt quite right foryou. Nor did it ever work the way you thought it would. You found that you weren't quitesatisfied eating this way: You were often hungry and low in energy andworst of all-permanent,significant weight loss proved elusive. You never actually achieved the goals that motivated youto go on a diet in the first place.
    Here's the good news: Most of you will now find that your frustrations are about to end. I havehelped tens of thousands of people who have come to me needing to lose weight and improve their health. And I promise I will help you, too.
