About the Book
Weight Solutions: The New Body-Mind-Spirit Approach brings important nutritional knowledge and a balanced eating plan that makes it simpler to lose weight in a healthy way and helps to maintain weight loss over the long term. Despite an emphasis on low-fat foods, we have a national epidemic of obesity and excess body fat. Why?
The reader will learn how to balance the three essential food groups using simple formulas presented in Phase 1 (A Boost to Your Metabolism), Phase 2 (Sustaining Metabolism; Strengthening Willpower) and Phase 3 (Balancing Body, Mind, and Spirit and Nutrition for Life).
What makes this weight loss book different than all the others on the market is the holistic perspective of Drs. Cunningham and Valentine. In addition to healthy eating and nutrition, the reader explores his or her memories and childhood programming through an in-depth discussion of the mental and emotional aspects of weight loss and maintenance. And, a discussion of one's "spirit" is a part of this unique weight loss approach.
THE OLD MODEL THE NEW BODY-MIND-SPIRIT MODEL Lose as much as you can, as fast as you can Consistent, permanent weight loss over time. Short term success Permanent long-term success Each diet causes weight gain Maintains healthy weight Depletes nutrients Provides nutrients Vulnerability to disease Wards off disease Increases cravings Reduces cravings Creates tiredness and chronic fatigue Increases energy levels Lack of mental clarity Provides mental clarity Recognizes emotional connection to weight gain
