"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."

It’s was the London marathon on Sunday and I was listening to the commentary on the radio. Did you know that the first one was 100 years ago and was run in London? Did you also know that the finishing time was around 2 hours 50 minutes. Last year at the London marathon, over 500 hundred people beat that time. It’s interesting how records get broken and people manage to do things that some people said where not possible. With a will to achieve and a desire to succeed anything is possible!

So can you break your own records and achieve what you want? Can you become slimmer, fitter and healthier? Can you break the habits that have held you back in the past? Of course you can, but always remember that you might need to be patient and you might make a few mistakes along the way. Stay positive, be happy and enjoy the journey.

So, the Vitality Show kicks of this Thursday the 27th in afternoon. It will be great to see any of you if you are able to make it there!

Here's the schedule:

THURSDAY 27th
18.00  Happiness Theatre: Happiness and Friendship

FRIDAY 28th

The Happiness Equation

In 2004, I defined a 'formula' for Happiness for the Holiday company Thomson. Our research that led to the scientific equation reveals that a person's happiness is determined by three key factors:

• Personal characteristics (including outlook on life, adaptability and resilience)
  
  
• Existence Needs (including health, financial stability and community / friendships)
  
  
• Higher Order Needs (beyond basic existence i.e. self esteem, expectations, ambitions, sense of humour):

This was hugely successful and resulted in the equally successful Happiness Campaign. I had requests to present the formula from 26 countries around the world including Brazil and Canada and Korea!

In my Happiness Presentations at the Vitality Show this week I will unlock some of the secrets to long-term happiness. If you are not able to make the event and you want to find out more about Happiness then go to my web site www.petecohen.com. You can even do the Equation on-line and find out just how happy you are.

All the background information and an explanation of the research we did is all there for you to read.

So let us know how happy you are in the comments... Ecstatic? Miserable? Nonplussed?

It's coming to the end of the month and this is always a great time of year because the great Vitality Show at London's Olympia is on from the Thursday the 27th till Sunday the 30th.

The show is the largest health and beauty show in the UK and there are hundreds of things to do and see. One of the main attractions is me! (ha ha). We have a stand there and I am giving talks every day. 

It's a great day out with some super shopping, loads of free stuff, things to try and many experts giving presentations to motivate and inspire you.

We would love to see you, so come on down and lets have some fun.

Check out the Vitality Show web site for more details

See you there!
