I have gone down 15lbs in one month since reading the book – it is great.
2mths later…
The book is really helping me. It helps to keep focus. By the way I have gone down almost 30lbs in 2 months.

I just wanted to say that you have created a wonderful tool for people. I have always believed that weight loss is more about the psychological relationship with food and underlying emotional factors.

So far your book is amazing. I haven’t gotten very far but it’s brought some interesting things up for me. So I’m “digesting” before I go any further!
lol great psychology angle!! REALLY! I was a little surprised by where it hit me and not surprised in another sense.

Thanks Beth,
You absolutely amaze me. It is so great to see someone like yourself, so busy, always on the go, doing a millions things at once, still make time for other people. I purchased your book and have been able to keep in contact since. I think this is such a great thing, and rare.

Beth is a great person with a big heart whose intent is to help as many people as she can understand their relationship with food. I know she will do well with this worthwhile endeavor.

My newest thing since reading your book is to evaluate the food. I self talk and tell myself that the sugar or fat or artificial ingredients are not healthy for my body and health.

I really liked your book. It definitely is a book that needs to be read over. I browse areas in it from time to time that I have marked off with sticky notes. You have a great book.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your book. It presents some eye-opening concepts and ideas regarding weight management and diet. I am quite involved in a fitness program now and thought it could be a great add-on.

I did catch you on the CTV noon hour program and it is great!

Your angle on the nutrition and the weight control issue is refreshing. The diet, lose weight, gain weight, diet… rollercoaster is destructive and disheartening. You mentioned the ‘diabetic way of eating’. I agree that we need to look at why we eat the way we do, and we need strategies and support systems to successfully implement a healthy lifestyle.
Your positive attitude and enthusiasm for your work are impressive.

I’ve read the book but I can honestly say that I have not put pen to the page. BUT…I have taken quite a few of your ideas and strategies to work and they do work. Between your book and the cardiac classes that we went to has resulted in a 10 pound loss in a month and I’m still working on more.
The best thing about your book is the apron you sent me as a gift. It truly is my conscience. I put it on in the morning and do not take it off until bed time and it is just my reminder that I really do not need that extra snack or second helping. It is my little “Beth” voice.
Wow – What a book.
What a different approach to weight loss – you, yourself writing your own destiny!!
Writing down my thoughts, goals and strategies just reinforces everything that I need to do to be successful.
Then when I re-read and re-wrote my goals, somewhere along the way I began to have faith in my own ability to conquer my weight problems.
With a few constant reminders and a good support system I started to believe in myself and was able to take control.
Thanks Beth for the ongoing support.

I’m refusing to put myself ‘on a diet’….just decided to make better choices, and to change the way in which we as a family eat (which is easier said than done in some cases, but armed with the “oxygen mask” attitude, I am finding it easier to make decisions for ME. I am absolutely determined that this is NOT a diet – and its not a quick fix…..I would rather end the year, feeling healthier and fitter than last, but I do have a short term goal – which will help me keep on track.

I just have to lose the fat in between my ears! LOL! And do it!
