For everyone that is applying the 5 Secrets of Permanent Weight Loss, welcome. In the near future I anticipate transitioning to a forum rather than a blog, but until I set up the necessary security I am going to be sharing information to help each and everyone of you to achieve all of your health goals.
This is an exciting time. You have learned some of the basics about permanent weight loss and I want to remind you that knowledge isn't going to do it, but applied knowledge certainly will. Over the next few days I will be posting help guides, covering specific topics. Any particular concern you are having will be gladly discussed and for now those questions and concerns can be emailed to me directly and then I will respond as quickly as possible. If I feel that your question and concern is of importance to everyone I'll write up a post for all to benefit.
I am excited for each of your success and thank you all for taking this essential step to a new healthier you. I appreciate your patience as I disseminate additional help in your journey.

A Good Diet
Well everyone is half way there. A lot of success so far and some new discoveries and even a couple of mysteries. If you haven't seen all of your expectations met yet, don't get discouraged, because lifestyle changes take some time. So, today I want to discuss a little more about one of the elements to making these lifestyle changes - A GOOD DIET!
Let's use an example from one of you. This is perhaps the best example I've seen, so, I may be a little over critical, so don't get to down on yourself if you're not eating this well.
Breakfast
5 a.m. Soy Protein Drink (made with 2% Milk or 1/4 cup of Oatmeal - Water
7 a.m. Apple or Light Yoplait Yogurt - 1 Liter of Water
9 a.m. Apple - 1 Liter of Water
Lunch
11 a.m. Soy Protein Drink (made with 2% Milk) or 4 Slices of Turkey - Water
1 p.m. Dole Fruit Cup or Light Yoplait Yogurt - Water
3 p.m. 4 Slices of Turkey - Water or Lipton Tea (unsweetened)
Dinner
6 p.m. Grilled Chicken with Vegetables (frozen) or Progresso Chicken or Beef Soup or Salad with Cottage Cheese - 1 Liter of Water
8 p.m. Light Yo plait Yogurt or Dole Fruit Cup or 1/4 Cup of Oatmeal - Water
Alright - I told you that this was the best example I've seen. What would I change? Are you kidding, with that much effort and diligence, I'm not changing anything in the diet. So what's missing? Exercise. Why am I talking about exercise in a blog titled "A Good Diet". Because it's the missing piece to this example, while others have the exercise part down, but needed some guidance with the diet. Again I use the word diet not as "diet", but what you eat. I believe Zig Ziglar had two rules to lose weight:
1 - Stop Dieting!
2 - Find a skinny doctor.
There are hundreds of different exercises routines, programs, and what-have-you. The number one word of advise is do what you love (eating isn't part of the exercise part though). If you have a four day work week I would highly encourage you to schedule a couple of 2 consecutive hour aerobic workouts on your days off. And then maybe a couple of 40 minute walks during the work days. In fact I would encourage anyone to work out this way. Also a $20-$30 miniature trampoline is a great way to wind down at the end of a day, watching your favorite show or listening to some great tunes, not to mention one of the best exercises you could do for so many reasons.
Keep up all the good work all of you. One month to go and then the fun of your life from now on.

Purification Program
I will be posting about what I feel is an ideal program and explain that we don't live in a world of ideal and therefore I plan to also provide a practical option. Now to get everything into the ideal program would be a rather tedious endeavor so for the dietary portion I want to refer to the Standard Process Purification Program that I also offer in the office. I have seen some fantastic results with the entire program including a patient that dropped their cholesterol 80 points in the 21 days she was on the program. I would encourage anyone to use the Purification Program if they want a huge advantage in obtaining optimal health. Regardless of whether you want to use the Purification Program or not the dietary guidelines in the program are superb and I want to add that they are practical as well; not entirely easy, but still practical.

Keep It Up
I just wanted to give some extra encouragement to everyone. I am excited for the comments of each you about your successes. Weigh in will be late February so don't just jump on the scale all the time it doesn't do any good to be consumed with what it says - not to mention it isn't the official scale we use.
Some of the successes I've heard is simply feeling better. One of you made a huge step and gave up soda - that alone is awesome, but even more impressive is the huge improvement in water consumption. Great Job! I have heard others removing some barriers to better health - now lets focus on all the benefits. Zig Ziglar teaches this principle so beautifully. When we all think we're paying the price, he says,"you don't pay the price for good health, you enjoy the benefits of good health." So when it gets tough, as it will, think of the benefits. Improved memory, stamina, physic, playing with the kids or grand-kids, you can name the benefit you want to enjoy - focus on that. Keep it up, all you healthy and fit achievers. Dr. P
