“Mom, I feel fat” – helping your teenager with body image

My mom and dad raised me to be a strong chick. As a teenager I felt OK about my body, learned different sports, and ate a wide variety of foods guilt-free (both veggies as well as chocolate chip cookies). I took for granted that this was a normal way to grow up as a teenage […]

How to handle food cravings for junk food

potato chips

Lauri struggled with sweet cravings for candy, cookies and just about anything chocolate. After returning home from a long day of work at a job she found draining and unrewarding, she was particularly prone to binging on these foods. She tried different strategies to stop eating them, including removing them completely and treating them like […]

Success Stories

I just wanted to share with you the measurable changes that have occurred in my health/life since our first meeting about three and a half months ago. My total cholesterol has dropped from 5.8 to 4.6, and my doctor tells me to expect a further substantial reduction over the next year or so. My weight has dropped approximately 13 lbs. so far. I find that I need about one to one and a half hours less sleep per night than I needed before, to have the same energy the next day. Lastly, my digestion improved. There was nothing wrong with it before, but now it is turbocharged! I attribute it 100% to the program that you laid out for me.

~ Pat, age 56
