Weight Loss Guru

Hi there

The member of the month this month is Sue. She has been on the programme since June 2008 and her journey is all  inspiring. 

She has provided loads of support and motivation to others and has written over 160 blog entries! You can see and read these for yourself here:  http://weightlossjournals.petecohen.tv/index.cfm/Suefromcoast

Sue has lost  5 and a half stone, and a total of 48 inches from her bust waist and hips, and dropped 4 dress sizes. Sue still wants to lose a considerable amount of weight and I am sure this is will happen. Her weight loss is only one part of what she has achieved and I have included some extracts from one of her most recent blog entries for you to see just how far she has come.

What has this programme meant to me?

Today I was thinking how my life has changed in the 10 months since i joined this programme. For newcomers to the programme if you look back on my first entries you will see the serious state i was in, and the problems i had to even get to Petes seminar in the first place, but i was driven to go , and my word am i so glad i did !!! as i was virtually housebound, crippled by arthritis, weight and surgery pain, and my self esteem and selfworth was so low i had difficulty dragging my almost 28 stone body out of bed every day!!!

Firstly and most importantly i can say hand on heart I have not had one binge, when i was binging uncontrollably sometimes several times daily right up untill I started the programme, I now like me, I now believe i am worth being nice to, i believe I deserve a better life and I have found patience to know it will take me a while, but i didnt get to that size overnight, so i am happy with my 2-3lb loss weekly, where before if i didnt loose half a stone i would get fed up and binge for england.

i was working in a stressful business, fromhome by phone as i am not able to do a physical job, but i had 2 successful businesses..... working day and night to provide financial help for my family...... i didnt need to do that to feel loved, they love me dearly and wanted me to take life easier, this programme has given me that confidence to sell 1 business, and i love this easier lifestyle.

I have the confidence to go out and do much more, I now cope when people stare and snigger and point, i just imagine Pete and all my online friends with me and i hold my head up and smile!!!

My grandson has lost almost 3 stone, his amazing transformation has been well written about, but its all thanks to petecohen.tv as i raved on so much he couldnt help but listen and take notice !!! Thankgod he did, as he is incredible and so happy now.

I have made several lifelong friends from the bloggers who were there for me in the beginning, i talk to them weekly and i know we will always be intouch.

I have never once been lonely since joining petecohen.tv.... i have been known to blogg at 3am and how great to know you can log on 24/7 and be amongst friends who all understand.

i have been able to come to terms with the traumatic cancer journey i went on, i kept it all in for 3 years , and this amazing programme and you amazing bloggers has allowed me to express those feelings and get rid of them.
I booked a limo to take my blogging friends around london when we attended last octobers seminar..... it was a suprise, their faces will stay with me and we all have those memories.

I dont go through life apologising for who i am anymore.... you amazing bloggers have always made me feel so special, and Pete, well Pete is one of lifes heros, he has always been there for me, from my first day right the way through till now... you dont meet many really really special people in a lifetime, but Pete is definately one and i thank god so much his amazing team who encouraged me to make that journey to see Pete live.

This programme is so much more than about weightloss, its about life changing processes that help us find who we should be, after stumbling from one diet disaster and self destructive behaviour issue to another, Its taken me to 57 years of age to be happy with who i am today.... that journey i made to see Pete in London was the hardest but the best journey of my life.

Thankyou Pete and thankyou all you amazing people

"I enjoy following the plan and it's great to go to the workshops where you can meet other members who you have got to know online.  I have lost over 4 stone following PCTV - it's such a different and refreshing approach to weight loss."
Ruth Alexander
 

"What makes PCTV and specifically being on the blogs extra special is that you soon become part of our family, we're all together pulling in the same direction and we are accepted and feel free to be ourselves with our ups and downs. Once we're helping other people we're also realising our own abilities to help ourselves - what could be better and I have lost 6 stone"
Annie Garcia

"I joined the programme back in June after being bowled over by Pete and his amazing system, it has worked for me where 40 odd years of conventional dieting hasnt, in just over 3 months i am 3 stone plus lighter, i am walking unaided where before i needed a stick, i was virtually housebound and now i go out every day, its completely lifechanging and the best thing is I haven't once felt hungry or deprived."
Sue Hedges
 

"PCTV has changed my entire view on getting slimmer, fitter, healthier and happier. Ten months on, I'm still on the programme and still losing weight. I have never managed this before- usually I'm "good" for a few weeks then fall off the wagon and give up. Then as the next big thing in my life approaches I try to "diet" again. I've now broken this cycle thanks to Pete and all the wonderful people on the Weightloss Journals Blog. Since starting PCTV on Jan 1st 2008 I have lost 2st 10lbs. I attended Pete's weight loss event in London on Oct 11th and it was an elightening and motivational day."
Vikki Crawford

Thanks so much ladies! It was great to see you all again at the event. Keep it up you're all doing so incredibly well!

Our Inch-Loss-Ladies are back for a quick update. They're all doing really well and have stuck with the programme. Excellent job, Well done girls!

"Still doing really well and your programme is really helping as it offers me structure and keeps me positive and motivated. I have lost 21 pounds and loads of inches. I know I have turned a corner and that I will never put this weight back on again."
Karen Benford

"I have lost 20lbs following your programme and an amazing 46 inches in total. I'm still going to the gym and also I've just started power walking for 30mins at lunchtime and hope to do that 3 times a week."
Karen Parker

"Pete's  programme is really  working for me.  I have lost 22 pounds at the moment and am still losing weight. It's  not always been easy and i do try not to be too hard on myself as we all learn from our mistakes.  I often go back and look at my journey and realise how well i am doing and feeling better in myself. With Pete's programme I will not only lose the weight but I know I'll keep it off."
Gail

From another highly-inspirational petecohen.tv weight-loss programme member:

"And the result of my weigh in is - - - I've lost 11.5lbs in 4 weeks! Only another 16.5 lbs to go till I reach my previously unattainable goal, now it is so close I can feel it, I just want the time to pass so I am "there", but I have already waited 20 years, I can wait a bit longer. In 8.5lbs time I will be the lightest I have been for 19 years and that is my next mini goal. This is fab, espeically as I had to kick myself up the butt to get myself moving and scream at that lazy duck to shut itself up many times. I already have got in to my tight work trousers, and today you probably heard my whoop of joy as I got in to a pair of cargo pants I bought a couple of years ago and have not been able to get in to previously. I measured myself also and have lost 2" off my bust (dropped 2 bra sizes!), 1.5" each off waist and hips and 1.5" off each thigh. To say I am pleased is an understatement, Pete you are a miracle worker, what you have done for me is just wonderful. I am repeating the programme again as there is so much in it, I hear new things every time I play one of your videos. It was the best "click" I ever made that led me to find your programme. Thank you so much!"

I can't wait to hear more! :)

It has been such a pleasure to work with them as they where really up for it. The real challenge starts now as they return to the real world. We will keep in touch with them and support them as best as we can. GMTV plan for us to go back and see them in May so watch this space.

It has also been fab working with personal trainer Mark Anthony and Nutritionist, Amanda Hamilton. We have formed a great team and plan to work together to inspire people to lose weight, get fit, increase their energy and live the dream. We are planning to do a workshop together in London in May. I will keep you all informed.

Thanks for all your support this week

Hi there to you all and I hope you have had a good Christmas and are looking forward to 2008.

This is the time of year when many of us think about New Year resolutions. The common-most being to lose weight and get fit.

If this is one of your goals and if you haven't already checked out www.petecohen.tv, then have a look. It's a unique 21 day programme designed to help you develop the powerful and positive habits that will not only help you lose weight, but give you the tools you need to keep the weight off.

It's a great time to take a free trial and join up as the price is going up on Jan 1st.

Have a look at what some of the people who have been following the programme for the past few months have said:

"In 21 days I've lost a couple of pounds and a some inches, but, more importantly, I've learnt more about myself, particularly that I can do things differently. New habits are forming and I am nurturing them..."

"...I am relaxed and discovering new pleasures. I deeply dislike diets. I like to eat. I have never ate with such pleasure. I learnt to eat slowly and this made all the difference. I also love freedom. In this sense, I am much more free. I decide what I will eat instead of eating without choice.."

New Year's Goals

I recommend that if you do want to break a habit this year or achieve a goal or goals then your first port of call would be to write down anything you want to achieve.

"Without goals, and plans to reach them, you are like a ship that has set sail with no destination."
Fitzhugh Dodson

When we truly focus on something, we are much more likely to achieve it  - whether it's gaining a job, buying a house, acquiring a qualification or having a harmonious relationship. By sending a message of desire to our brain, we start to make pictures of what we want and, in turn, we begin to take action in order to make it happen. Similar to a builder having an idea of what a project will look like when it's complete or a hairdresser knowing what style they want to create before they start cutting, we can all design the future we want - and then set out to obtain it.

If your goals are about things that you need in your life and will benefit you and others, you'll feel happy when you achieve them. But if you set goals just because you think you should, or to please other people, you may not feel that special even when you do achieve what you set out to do. It's important to ask yourself "What's in it for me?" and "What will happen if I don't manage to do this?"

I really hope you have a good New Year's and and even better 2008!
