"Imagine that one medical advancement held the promise to conquer cancer, perhaps within your lifetime … the potential to also end more than 70 of life's most threatening conditions, affecting one billion people worldwide. This is the promise of angiogenesis, the first medical revolution of the 21st century."

Hi there
I have posted a special film for you that I have just made from my trip to the Spanish City of Barcelona.
I really did see some great things and felt inspired by what I saw. The Spanish have a great way of living, they appreciate so much of what many of us we have forgotten, like eating good food and taking the time to talk to each.
Please watch the film and make any comments you have.
Many thanks
HI everyone
It's that time again when we award our member of the month. This month it's Diane Stephenson who has lost an amazing 12 stone, 168 pounds
She is an inspirational lady and you can listen to her in her own words in the pod-cast below as she explains how she did so well and some of the secrets of her success.
Please make any comments you have below and I will pass the onto Diane.
Pete Cohen played a big part in my twelve stone weight loss. I love the on-line programme, it's really easy to use and has a nice accessible and realistic approach. I found it motivates and inspires me to continue to look after myself so I stay slim, fit and healthy for ever.

Hi everyone
Let me please ask you a question, “What do you think you could achieve in six weeks? Is it possible that you could break some habits and become even healthier, fitter and slimmer?”
Petecohen.tv has gone from strength to strength and we now have more and more success stories and a great community of bloggers who are all positively supporting each other.
I know that people can achieve so much in this time frame and are likely to do it, if they do it with others, and are supported along the way.
What this will involve is getting as many people to start the programme from day one on Monday 15th of June and to go through the 21 days twice. I would encourage you to blog as much as you can using your on-line journal, as you allow yourself to support and be supported by others.
For more details listen to this short pod-cast below
Lets make this Summer special, where we are all feel better about ourselves, have more energy and look great. I personally dare you to do this, whether you’ve never completed the whole programme or you’ve been through it lots of time. Even if you don’t want to follow the 21 days, you could still decide some tools to use and just go for it.
If you are and you are not already a member of petecohen.tv then click here to visit the site and sign up. If you are member just activate your calendar to start on the Monday the 15th of June.
Take care and lets all have a go
Pete

1) Change Your Mind
Use the magic number of 21. It takes around that many times of doing things for them to become second nature and for us to form new habits.
For example; go for a walk everyday for 21 days, make sure you drink a certain amount of water for 21 days, exercise everyday for 21 days and then after that time, it will become part of your life-style.
2) Feel Good Fitness
Most people don't like exercise and that's why they don't do it. What you need to do is ask yourself the question, 'What's in it for me?' Take a moment to focus on the feeling you get when exercise is finished. With that feeling in mind, just go and do it.
After exercise the body releases endorphins and serotonins, which can also suppress appetite and can stop you from snacking later.
3) Separate eating from other activities
If you want to lose weight have a go at separating eating from other activities. If we eat whilst doing something else, we never really know when we have had enough.
It takes 20 minutes for the stomach to tell the brain that it's full, you need to really focus on what you are eating. If you can do this '21' times it will become habit.
4) Do you like it enough that you want to wear it?
You eat the food because it tastes good and it makes you feel good- but before you eat it you have to really ask your self- 'Do I like it enough that I would want to wear it?' and focus on that before you eat it.
5) Measure and celebrate your success
Rather than just using scales, as that measures your whole body weight, use a tape measure as you will see more results that way. Measure your success by how active you are, how slowly you eat, write it in a notebook.
If you note down everything you are eating, this will stop you from over-eating because you won't want to write it down in the book. And when you do something well, and you have lost a few pounds, celebrate like you have just scored a goal!
