What if one call could change your life?

Sherry on the dock

When I was obese, I was drained, miserable, emotionally unfulfilled and overburdened.

I was married to a man who felt more like a third child, than a partner. 

Over time he became emotionally abusive and on a few occasions physically as well. 

I was trying to hold things together for the kids and although I was dissatisfied in the relationship, I still loved him.

I listened to the lies of his words, instead of 'hearing' the truth of his actions.

Empty were his platitudes and promises…

SHE LOST 15lbs & HER SKIN CLEARED

117358679_10157431225421723_725545140307593660_n
Since weight loss is a good ‘side effect’ of getting healthy, there are surprise benefits when you transform your diet to eat the ‘Delish’ way permanently.

Because the Delish diet reboots digestion and cleanses the liver to restore hormone balance, clear skin is a common good ‘side effect’.

When the liver is stagnant you will experience acne as your body is forced to push toxins out through your skin, instead of through the bowels.

Also a common contributor to …

I entertain too much.

“My current lifestyle and the bad habits that my husband and I have adopted for eating and entertaining are hard to break.” 

Ever struggle with this common thought that stops you from committing to the healthy lifestyle that permanent weight loss requires?

When I read these words, these are the beliefs I hear:
- I think eating poorly is more pleasurable than eating healthy.
- I think I can’t entertain and present foods that my company will enjoy.
- I think eating healthy means that I have to give…

30 lbs down & kept it off for 2 plus years now!

Lisa Shorter before and after!

What I love about Lisa's story is her focus on her health and lifestyle, rather than on what the scale says.

Lisa so beautifully demonstrates the mindset that is required for permanent weight loss. It's not about quick results, it is about results that last. 

If you've been overweight your whole life or you are over 50, you'll want to learn from Lisa's story and take on her mindset.

It's about sustainable results with the initial focus being on health.

You must cultivate patience and Lis…

The one thing 97% of dieters won't do to lose weight

revamping the kitchen

There is a reason 97% of dieters fail.

The reason is obvious.

They fail to stick to the diet.

Hold on, hold on.

It's not because they are lazy and undisciplined, it's because weight loss diets are designed to be done for a temporary time period.

They are not by design for permanent results.

Think about it:

- If you don't already go to the gym and love it, how long do you think you can force yourself to do it?
- How long can you really live on 1000 calories or less a day, before you freak…
