Dear Friends & Visitors:

 

If you've been banging your head against the wall trying to lose weight but can't seem to get ahead or keep the weight off, I know exactly what you are going through.

 

Maybe this scenario sounds familiar. Ten pounds lost in 1992, then gained back. Twenty pounds lost in 2004, then gained back. Whether I ate fewer calories, high protein meals, drank "power" shakes or ate "special foods," I always arrived at the same place, and in recent years, I gained even more weight then ever before.

 

As soon as I stopped random dieting I began to focus on the real possibilities that come from weight loss and having an improved health focus.

I awakened to the fact that I ate more then I burned in caloric energy. My activities where minimal. I did not enjoy rigorous exercise. My food choices were random, even when I was on a diet. Between work, family and friends my life was rich with social engagements and revolved around food events.

The most eye-opening discovery was that I had bad food habits, that included eating too many decadent foods that were rich in fat and limited in fiber.

In general, I was lazy when it came to my own health management, and most of the time I forgot I was even on a diet, which ultimately resulted in me gaining more weight.

 

During the past, so much money had been poured into fads, special foods and diet books.

 

I Did the Math

After loosing and gaining so many pounds and inches, I calculated that I had given out more money to health promoters then I had lost in actual weight or peace of mind.

 

That infamous clock was also ticking. I was getting older and my metabolism was slowing, and all of that weight loss effort of the past had resulted in nothing more then an unhappy state, larger clothes sizes and poor health.

It was only after the final food drama episode that I discovered a better way to pay attention and manage my health focus.

 

So far thirty pounds lost, but this time I have held my weight steady for more then two years. The true reward has been an unwavering commitment to better health.

No more yo-yo diets or following food plans that I could not manage for a lifetime.

 

The good news is you too can also change your health goals for the better, and you can start right now.

 

The Health & Weight Loss Companion is not just my personal story. The Health & Weight Loss Companion is an approach to improved health that offers a different perspective on weight loss and food management.

The VERY best part is this book can accompany any health plan and be used for a lifetime.

This system initiates a life-long approach focused on food awareness.

If you have just started a new diet program or been on many diets in the past and not achieved your goal, the Health & Weight Loss Companion offers valuable support tools that can help you manage both your plan and social eating experiences. You will gain insights into YOUR food behaviors, learn how to pay attention to what you eat, who you eat with, why certain foods taste better then others, why you tend to choose those "yummy" foods, and finally, why you have been defeating yourself time and time again with yo-yo dieting.

My Results:

• I lost weight. Without effort, without drama, without feeling deprived, lonely or upset.
• I no longer buy diet books of fads.
• I like my body image, shape and my weight (YES!).
• I know I am doing my very best to have a better health focus.
• I only eat "yummy, high-quality food."
• I stopped eating the stuff that people describe as "junk."

Of course, I am not perfect when it comes to what I eat, but everyday I make better choices and I am fully focused.

What has been true for me can be true for you as well.

 

Life does not have to revolve around food categories, pyramids, measurements or numbers (Big and Small).

 

My health book has been written to help anyone who needs that extra push to better health awareness. If you are reading this letter, then you are probably someone who wants to know more about what I did.

I invite you to change age old eating and health behaviors.

 

I leave you with one last thought. How many slices of cheesecake, pizza and chocolate cake have you eaten in your life? Why do you keep eating them when you know you have health and weight issues? How many more of these foods and other unhealthy foods will you eat, even when you are not supposed to?

 

The time to stop these age-old behaviors is not tomorrow but right now.

My book will always be available here, but really, what are you waiting for? Don't start another plan without having that important support tool that you need.

 

Thank you for visiting my health page, and whatever path you choose, I wish you a lifetime of excellent health and yummy food experiences.

 

Sincerely,

 

Valerie H. Lunden
