Please can you help me write my new book?
Last month I was pleased to make good progress in writing my new book. However, in order to bring my book to life, I need your help.I'm looking for real-life stories of people who've experienced losing weight - any amount - and improving their lives using the scientific principles from The Don't Go Hungry Diet.
My plan is to illustrate all of the principles in my new book with real life experiences from many different people, thereby making my new book a pager turner that will inspire others to improve their lives.
Do any of the following apply to you?
- Have you lost weight - any amount - by eating according to your body's needs?
- As a result of eating according to your physical needs, have you experienced changes in the way you think about food, your body and weight loss that make it easier for you to manage your weight?
- Do you have strategies that you currently use to successfully manage your weight? In other words, do you have "secret weapons" that help you to stay in control of your weight?
- Would you like to share your experiences in my next book in order to help others to improve their lives?
Please note that all of the Success Stories in my books are anonymous for protection of privacy. Note also that if I write up your story for publication, I will send you the final draft for your approval before sending it to the publisher.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to write to me, and I look forward to hearing from you. I will personally reply to your letter within the week.

"Hi Amanda, Thank you for replying to my email. I thought I would just give you my two week update of experiences as you mentioned. It has been a great couple of weeks. I have felt positive, lighter, and more healthy. I have also noticed that I have not felt deprived of anything and not had cravings for huge amounts of foods like chocolate or sugary cakes. I have even had a couple of squares of chocolate that is in my cupboard without feeling the need to eat the whole block - a major achievement in itself. I have also found it much easier to excercise each day than I expected - going to the gym or walking and managing at least the 10 000 steps a day without too much effort. I do still wonder how it will all be once the enthusiasm of the initial time wears off - but I somehow feel this is all achieveable as an ongoing thing. The diary is an excellent tool and keeps me focused. I have learned that I previously ate even good food until I was really full, not thinking about how much I was eating at a meal. I have found that I need smaller amounts of food at a time and am generally more hungry mid mornings to mid afternoons than at any other time. I also get more hungry after going to the gym, and rather than not listening to that and not eating any more, I have more good food, until I satisfy my hunger! In terms of the statistics - I am amazed and happy. I had set a goal of losing 10 kg by the end of the year as I thought it was reasonable and acheiveable. In my two weeks I have gone from 117 kg to 113kg and from 123cm around the waist to 119cm. Amazing considering I feel better than ever and don't feel like I am missing anything. So, thank you. I am really looking foward to continuing on this journey and feel like I will actually reach my goal. Lisa "
