I went on my first diet at age 10 and from then on I can honestly say I was always on some sort of diet. I tried them all and all I did was go up and down, then up and down again with no permanent results. By the time I was 33 not only was I still overweight but I was depressed too. I was married and had 4 small children and I remember asking myself, "Is this it? Are my best years behind me Is my life just about keeping my head above water and taking anti-depressants What happened to me I wanted more out of life. I wanted more for my children than just a mother who was existing. And then one day it all changed.... I read an article during the Christmas holidays of 2003 about how it takes 21 days to create new habits. I figured if I could just change my eating habits permanently I'd get real long-term results. But I also knew that making drastic changes would just overwhelm me, deprive me and drive me deeper into my depression. On January 1, I sat down with a brand new 2004 calendar and decided I was going to make 1 change a week. That's it. Focus on that one change and add a new one each week. Four months later I was 30 pounds lighter, 6 months later I weaned off my medications and 52 weeks later I was a whole new person ready to live...REALLY LIVE The following pages are a list of the changes I made week after week. You can use the boxes to check off each one as you make them. You may change the order but do not make more than 1 change a week. If you already do a few of these you may substitute for other changes/goals you want to achieve. The point here is to not feel overwhelmed at any point and to embrace your new lifestyle habits. You may feel that 52 changes is a long time but think about it, how have things turned out doing it your way And let's be honest, it takes time to create FABULOUSNESS The best part about it is that year after year, it just keeps getting better It's been 8 years since I made these changes and I can honestly say I continue to reverse the clock. Physically, mentally and emotionally. No diets, no pills, no shakes, no packaged foods, no fads, no gimmicks. Its real food and real work. And now it's time to get real with yourself and Get Josette.
