If I am So Smart Why Cant I Lose Weight

If I am So Smart Why Cant I Lose Weight




Since applying the tools I learned in Brooke’s program to my everyday life, I have already released 35 pounds of fat from my body. I no longer struggle with food and exercising has become a joy that I look forward to doing every day. Shopping in the stores I once used to walk by fills me with great delight, because I can finally wear the kinds of cute clothes that better fit my personality. Once I was able to create a new mind set that I am worth taking great care of myself, I experienced more happiness than I have ever known. For me, freedom from the weight struggle has been worth taking the risk to try again just one more time.’ Suyin N. Client San Mateo, CA

5 Stars One of the best books on weight loss
I loved this book–If you are trying to lose weight this is the book for you!!! The author is a weightloss coach who writes about her clients difficulities with weightloss. I loved the part about the different types of eating!!! This book is a must have!

5 Stars Must read.
This book is a must read. Too bad its name only orients it to the audience struggling with weight. Personally I think everyone should read this book. Especially my wife, who has no weight issues, but has a good deal of opinions of what I should do for her personal happiness:).

5 Stars Great Book!
I got a lot out of reading it. Her purpose is in guiding the reader, presumably someone who wants to lose weight, through the thinking and feeling concepts and exercises that seem to be the core of her weight loss coaching practice. She has some excellent insights to share! Weight loss, she posits, is a natural response to this different, better way of thinking and behaving. Her exercises are not hypothetical or fantastical. She really does have a solution to overweight that is more about solving the source of the problem rather than treating the symptoms. Brooke coaches you on how to get what you really want.

5 Stars Hmmm
I originally borrowed this book from interlibrary loan, planning to just read it and return. However, now I am buying the book, because I got so much out of reading it. Brooke has a personable, warm style that is a little quirky for an author, but the book reads comfortably. Her purpose is in guiding the reader, presumably someone who wants to lose weight, through the thinking and feeling concepts and exercises that seem to be the core of her weight loss coaching practice. She has some excellent insights to share! I thought so highly of myself that I didn’t expect to learn much, but I was wrong and humbled. I have lost 50 pounds this past year and I thought I knew how to lose weight (and I do), but her approach is in helping you get to the essence of yourself, your values, what you really want, your goodness, your vitality, and learn better how to respect and appreciate and honor yourself, in your body, but also in your mind and heart. Weight loss, she posits, is a natural response to this different, better way of thinking and behaving. I have been successful losing weight counting calories and exercising, but I’ve been concerned for quite a while trying to think of how I’m going to maintain my weight loss without counting calories. Now I know! Her exercises are real; they are not hypothetical or fantastical. She really does have a solution to overweight that is more about solving the source of the problem rather than treating the symptoms (overfat). I don’t consider myself to have a self-esteem problem; the book is still valuable. Brooke coaches you on how to get what you really want. In this way, the book is transformative. I truly looked at myself and my life differently and much more positively after and because of reading this book. That is a blessing. It has given me hope and confidence in other areas of my life where I am struggling a bit. Kind of magically, this other area has suddenly become much easier and not nearly as much of a burden. I think because I am thinking and interpreting differently, on account of what I learned in this book. Lastly, in the book, Brooke shares some personal details about herself and her life and perhaps even some things that she might not normally share (e.g. some not-so-flattering personal stuff), that she is easy to appreciate as a person and accept direction from. She is humbly sharing her gift. So, I recommend the book.

5 Stars Great and Inspiring book
From all my previous trial to loose weight, i finally found my right way. Not only to loose weight, but to live a happy life.
