Weight Loss Guru

"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!

Hi there everyone,

As you probably already know I have weight loss programme called www.petecohen.tv

It's been up and running for about eight months and during that time we have had some amazing results from people following it. 

Recently we were able to get a few of these people together to film their testimonials about the programme. If you like, you can see this video here

Hope you enjoy,
Best, Pete.

Here's some truely amazing feedback from Diane Stephenson - what a success story! Thanks Diane for sending this through and becoming an instant inspiration!...

P.S. Sorry i haven't been around much this mad month of May - so busy...
More blogging in June i promise!! :)

Hi there,

So lately I've noticed a lot of people who are following the petecohen.tv program are having great success using  Tool 3 - the Relaxation & Transformation MP3...

"I am still finding the MP3 tool is working the best for me"

"The MP3 is great. At the end I feel wonderful"

 "The relaxation MP3 helps me keep my stress levels down and increase my belief in my ability to keep losing weight."

"Pete is right about the MP3 - it does relax me and makes me feel more positive."

"I can't believe how much better the relaxation and transformation mp3 makes me feel. I am eaten better and feeling great"

Here's a 5-min sample of the track
(The full track is 30mins long)

But, dieting is hard work?

So how can this Relaxation Track help people lose weight when it seems like a dichotomy; going against everything that people are usually told about losing weight?

Most people associate weight loss with dieting, and dieting with hard work, denial, sweat and sometimes tears. The process of losing weight makes many people tense and anxious as they are so concerned about how much they are eating or whether they have lost enough weight.

It has always been my goal that in helping people to lose weight, I would also teach them to enjoy the process and become more relaxed and calm. 

This is especially important because most people overeat when they are tired, bored, lonely, stressed, anxious or sad, along with many other emotions.  Bad eating habits are not often associated with feelling relaxed, calm and peaceful.

The transformation and relaxation tool relaxes the body and calms the mind. The knock-on effect of this is that people become better at managing their emotions and make better choices, automatically choosing foods which are healthier as well as having an increased desire to exercise and be active.
 

The power of suggestion.

Everyone is open to suggestion and we are more easily influenced that we think. For example if I was to say to you "What do beans mean ?" - do you hear a voice in your head that goes "HEINZ" ?  Or if I was to say to you "Pringles, once you pop" - do you hear a voice in your head that says "You just can't stop" 

The power of positive suggestion or, as some people call it, positive affirmation is an essential part of achieving success in many areas of life, whether  that's sport, business or - of course - losing weight and getting fit.

In this tool I take the person, who wants to lose weight, on a guided journey where I make many positive suggestions to them and their ability to break habits and achieve. The result of this is that people start to give themselves more positive reinforcements and feel good about all the changes they are making. 

In addition there are many health benefits from using this tool because when people relax their brains works differently and this creates many positive changes in the body, like decreased blood pressure, heart rate, muscular tension and better digestion. 

Here's a 5-min sample of the track
(The full track is 30mins long)

So until next time, take time to chillax, which is my new made up word for relaxing in the modern world ;)

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

Some people will do anything to lose weight, even if it means defying common sense and nutrition. But just because your best friend's cousin lost 20 pounds by drinking hot-peppered lemonade doesn't mean you should do the same. These 25 diets are not only ridiculous, they're ineffective and even dangerous.

It's just extraordinary the lengths some people are prepared to go to to lose weight!

Hi there all.

Some members on my weight loss programme publish some of their journal entries; I read this one and wanted to share it with you all:

“I was thinking I should prepare a cake to eat, so I entered in the kitchen. But there was a beautiful apple in my way, already cleaned. As I ate it, my wishing of a delicious cake simply disappeared! That's the way it works. The apple was delicious!” - SIlvia, Brazil

This is a great example of someone breaking a habit and doing something different. I challenge all of you to get into the habit of breaking the habits that hold you back. How about YOU get into the habit of eating more fruit. Check out the blog entries on apples and bananas.

Take care,
Pete

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! :)
