Weight Loss Guru

I am not happy. Find out why by watching the video below

I have been working in the field of health, fitness and weight loss for over 20 years and my programme has been tried and tested. My previous programme called Lighten Up was brought by the medical insurance company BUPA in 2003. 

In 2007 I developed my new weight loss programme - petecohen.tv  and the programme has gone from strength to strength. It is delivered over the internet using a unique 28 day behavioural change programme. Users are guided and coached by me in the comfort of their own homes.

It’s easy to understand and use which is why it connects with people.  A tried and tested formula, PCTV has helped thousands of people to successfully lose weight, banish bad habits and become fitter, healthier and happier.

We have recently sold a number of licences to health clubs  who have been promoting the programme to their members and delivering the programme in groups. The results of these courses have been fantastic with many members, old and new achieving great success.

The podcast below is with one of the presenters we have trained who has been delivering the course face to face.

There are some great opportunities to take on a licence or to become an affiliate of the programme and make money by simply referring people to the programme.

You can hear some testimonials from people who have followed the programme face to face by CLICKING HERE.

Hi everyone 

It's petecohen.tv's second birthday this week and I want to thank all of you that have sent and given me cards.

I really appreciate your support and kindness. The friendship you all give each other is something so special and gives me great strength.

Please watch this video I made as a special thank you.

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

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...

Here's just a few of their comments:

"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"

[ Scroll down to listen to the MP3 ]

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 feeling 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. 

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