This is a life changing system that will change your attitude towards eating and how you eat. Every body is different and this is why "Ideal Body" works. Excerpt: There was a time when I found myself on the diet merry-go-round. I’d tried possibly every sensible diet there is, including Weight Watchers. Once I’d lost the weight and attempted to return to “normal life”, I found the weight always came back, and not only that, but I seemed to end up even heavier than when I began. The situation was ludicrous.   One day, I just said, "Enough is enough. I have a life to live."   So, I stopped dieting.   Instead, I began to eat intentionally. And I incorporated techniques into my eating habits that I use in every other area of my life, and that have brought me success and happiness in all those other areas of my life.   The result? I lost over 40 pounds!   I was amazed. I lost it easily, quickly, and without struggle. I had no idea, at the time, that this was going to happen.   However, when I thought about it, of course, it made sense. If I had done this from the start, I would never have needed those crazy diets I’d tried… and I’ve never needed one since.

Create Your Ideal Body
read the book "Create Your Ideal Body" this summer. It is an easy, natural way to lose weight by following Terri Levine's simple steps. I quickly and easily noticed myself listening to what my body really wanted in a much different way. When I thought I wanted something sweet and I asked if I wanted the usual cookie, the answer was often, not really. I began substituting macadamia nuts and found I was so much more satisfied both in terms of sweetness as well as substance.
I hadn't realized I was that much thinner until people started commenting that they saw I'd lost weight. One of my friend keeps asking me how I can eat so much when she is starving herself on all the latest diets. My reply is always, I eat a lot, but I am eating in a way that is more natural for me. By being aware of what I am eating and being intentional about my overall health, I am making healthier choices. When I thought about it-and checked the scale - indeed I had lost 10 pounds in under 3 months without giving anything up!
