DIET MASTERS

DIETMASTERS


MY YEARS AS A FOOD ADDICT

I was a heavy eater by the time I was 5 years old, only it was called a "healthy appetite" in those days, and they called me cute and chubby. By the time I was 18 I was a compulsive overeater. At 5'6", my weight ranged between 125 to 149, but only because I spent part of almost every month on some diet or another. I must have gained and lost more than 500 pounds on various crash diets before I turned 40.I could eat 3 half gallons of ice cream a week and 3 candy bars at the movies. At my favorite Oriental buffet I would start with 6 egg rolls and fill my plate (and myself) so much that the owners lost money. No matter what diet I tried, I dreamed of my next “fix”… boxes of cookies, bags of potato chips or maybe a whole pizza.I’ve always been an upbeat person with a good marriage, two children, and close friends, but on my 40th birthday I was feeling depressed. I took a walk on the beach and realized that my compulsive eating had to stop. I decided that I wanted peace more than pizza and vowed to put my extensive dieting knowledge to work. I re-read all of my material on the subject and designed a way of eating that would satisfy me and finally curb my appetite. My determination paid off in spades and changed my life. The numbers on the scale remained below 130 and before I knew it, I was helping curious friends and neighbors. That was the beginning of a long and exciting career founding and directing Diet Masters, teaching dieting classes and low calorie cooking and even self publishing 6 dieting books. Best of all, my weight has been stable between 124 and 129 for 39 years while I eat food that I enjoy.

IDEAS ABOUT HOW TO HAPPILY LOSE WEIGHT AND MUCH MORE

THERE IS AN IDEA IN THE FOLLOWING MATERIAL THAT WILL EDUCATE YOU ON HOW SOME NATIONAL COMPANIES PRINT MISLEADING INFORMATION ON THEIR WRAPPERS.  I ALSO ADVISE YOU TO READ MANY OF MY PREVIOUS POSTS WHILE YOU ARE READING THIS ONE.



1.  The big print on this box of food is misleading. It was on a container of Health Valley Crackers With Vegetables.  A nutrition newsletter found that the amount of vegetables in 1 serving which was 5 crackers was only one teaspoon.

2.  Someone who stayed on the original Atkins diet had an LDL cholesterol count of 250, which is considered to be on the high side.  Within 4 weeks of being on the diet it jumped to a very dangerous 740.  This is a diet that allows you NO starches and almost no fruits and vegetables.  They are allowed  lots of fatty meats and cheeses.

3.  CRIME AND PUNISHMENT:  How are those words related to dieting?  Overeating is the crime and gaining weight is the punishment.

              WILL YOU EVER BE ABLE TO LOSE WEIGHT AND KEEP IT OFF?  
                                                          IT ALL STARTS HERE

Permanent weight loss doesn't happen overnight.  Most of us need a new way to manage food.  When you read  and reread the first few hundred of posts on my blog you will realize that it is like being in Skinny School. 

You will get hints and recipes and learn how to avoid temptation . You will also learn how to order in restaurants among other things. Come with me, to the land of thin, the door is open, I WILL HELP YOU IN.
