    About this ebook

    This book was written specifically for frustrated dieters, people who have been trying and trying to lose weight but no diet works for them. They have suffered through embarrassment and humiliation and have given up.
    This is a new day for people suffering from obesity. It really is your metabolism! We have inadvertently overlooked and left out a key hormone in our quest for weight loss. You will learn how to have your body produce and use this hormone so you can finally lose the weight. We will dispel the myths that are holding you back and give you the techniques to move you forward on your weight loss journey. It will become manageable and natural for you to lose weight. You have been taught that we are human and as such we are the same in many ways, but we are also each very different. There lies the clue for your success.

      Many thanks to my family for their support and belief in my ideas; to my doctors, who supported and encouraged my weight loss efforts; and to Lauren Studios in Albany, New York, for searching their archives for my before pictures and the wonderful cover photos.

      Foreword

      Norma has made an incredible wellness journey over the past five years and has improved her health and vitality. Her struggle began years earlier, when despite normal body weight throughout childhood, she noticed her weight increasing in her early twenties, despite no changes in her diet or activity patterns. She was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and started on thyroid hormones, but continued to gain weight, reaching a top weight of 248 pounds in 2004. She attempted numerous diet plans, and would successfully drop 10-15 pounds but would rapidly regain the weight.

      At the time of her initial evaluation in July 2006 she was at high risk for heart disease due to elevated cholesterol and metabolic syndrome. In addition she struggled with severe fatigue and D deficiency.

      Over the past five years Norma has lost nearly seventy pounds, dropping from a weight of 248 to 166 pounds. Her blood sugar levels have normalized. She reports major improvement in her energy level and quality of life. She is exercising on a regular basis. We applaud her efforts on her journey toward health and wellness.

      Mrs. Ceresia has done well from a cardiovascular health maintenance perspective when she has included careful, gradual weight reduction with appropriate activity levels. Her personal sense of being healthy has improved significantly while following such a program. Not only has her blood pressure and lipid management been better, but she has been able to reduce her medication requirements as we work

      toward well established guidelines set forth by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association. For the past twelve years she has shown the benefits of an aerobic based activity program with careful weight reduction in her daily routine.

      Although Norma is not one of my patients, I have seen in her the struggles of living with being overweight and having diabetes that many of my own patients have to cope with every day. Following a diet, exercising, testing blood sugars and taking daily medications to get blood sugars under great control becomes a job in itself for many of my patients. Norma has worked so hard over the years to lose weight by trying many different traditional
