Diets

If you have had the TV on at all since right before Christmas you have seen a plethora of different diet and weight loss ads. They have dwindled somewhat in the past few weeks, but they are still out there in force.

Truth is, yes diets will work for awhile, but be honest. Every diet you have ever tried probably did work until you went off of it. The problem with diets is that they do not create a change that is lasting. Very few if any can stay on the diet because they feel deprived.

One of the people that I have been coaching regarding diet got it and she has written a new book about refusing to diet. I will give you more details as I get them. Once she got her head in the right place which she describes beautifully in the book, she began to put to work the healthy choices that we talked about. Doesn't mean that she can't have whatever she wants. She eats whatever she wants to eat. The difference now is that she doesn't want the whole cake, just a piece is fine. She has lost over 120 pounds which is testimony enough.
