LOSE FAT
GAIN HEALTH PROGRAM™
by Helen Hall MEd

There is a time during this program when I ask my clients to comment on how they feel. Listed below are just a few examples of what some of the hundreds have said - completely unsolicited.

"Thank you for a most supportive and inspirational program, I have thoroughly enjoyed it! I have lost weight - which was a main goal I have much more energy - don't feel lethargic at all. I am having better quality sleep. I don't struggle to get up in the morning - in fact I find it really easy - big change! I don't concentrate on food during my day - although I love food it has become less of a focus - I used to think about lunch at breakfast and what we have for dinner at lunch - now I take it as it comes etc. I don't feel bloated - I know this was down to a lot of carbs - I don't miss them in my diet now and will continue to leave most of them out. I have not been as indulgent - the odd wine (when I have been allowed) or the odd choc etc. rather than a bottle or a bar of choc. Someone once said to me "nothing tastes as good as feeling slimmer". Oh, how right they were. I am enjoying my new self so much and don't want to go back at all. Praise thee Helen Hall!! I feel (unlike any other diet or health kick I have gone on) that I have made some real changes/ habits that will be with me for a long time etc. I am a happier person and very determined and strong

"I just feel balanced. I don't feel bloated or anything like I used to and my energy levels are just constant the whole day. I don't have any ups and downs which is a good thing, even late at night I don't really feel exhausted or anything after working all day and working again when I get home. I am walking more and noticing that when I walk my resting heart rate the next day is lower and getting lower everyday. I hope this means I am getting fitter! The one comment I am getting from everyone is "have you lost weight?" . In actual fact I have and I didn't even mean too. I put on alot of weight went I firt went overseas 5 years ago and lost most of it but still had a little bit of excess that I just couldn't get rid of. Now, even this is gone. I definitely don't want to lose any more weight and am making sure that I eat all my meals and my snacks. I would like to start doing some weights as well to tone my muscles. I have noticed that I don't have sugar cravings any more. I don't feel like chocolate or jam on toast or anything like that. The one thing I do miss is CHIPS. But these aren't cravings but more physcological!! I am enjoying what I can eat. I love my eggs in the morning and being able to eat cheese. It's great!"

"I feel well. I feel lighter than when I began. I feel more conscious of my body generally. It has a better shape My clothes fit me better I am sleeping better I feel quite alive I definitely feel more attractive than I did when I started! I can't seem to get rid of my little tummy!"

"Amazingly, I have absolutely no desire for anything sweet! My eyes are still much clearer I am sure my outline is much more svelte My clothes fit much better (tried a suit on haven't been able to wear for 2 years!) Am sleeping better. Feeling sexier¾than have for weeks - a bonus! I am looking at ALL foods with different eyes now - ie - what kind of food is that???!!! Protein?Carb?Fat/Oil? I am sure the tendency to ruddiness in my complexion is diminished. And I think that is all great stuff and incentive to keep on track. Thanks a bunch dear coach."

"I feel great, my afternoon energy loss has disappeared, I feel really pleased with myself, I'm sleeping better, I feel energetic, optimistic. I feel for the first time ever that I'm doing the right thing for my body even if I don't lose weight I feel good!! I don't have the energy fall in the afternoon I have even gone to the gym in the afternoons and it's ok. I am not experiencing any need for tim tams!! As a matter of fact I am surprised how wonderful I feel. I keep wanting to sing out - more energy and sleeping better! and everything seems to taste so fresh though I do wish I had a veggie garden!"

I just did it, thanks for all your support, and the fantastic program that is the MOST comprehensive I've ever seen. I'm feeling great, and much more alive from the tip of my toes to the top of my head... it is amazing what happens when one waters the lawn growing inside their bodies....it grows healthy and strong. I think the song should be the " Green, Green grass of home"

"As I'm coming to the end of the program I'd like to give you my feedback. I've been extremely pleased with the results as I've lost approximately 5 kgs in weight which puts me within a couple of kilos of my desired weight. I've noticed a big difference in how I'm feeling, more alive, not so heavy in the gut, clearer eyes and clarity of mind which is great. I'm totally committed to continue this healthy way of eating and have learned much about the foods I thought were not good for me such as eggs, cheese etc. I've also learned to enjoy salads which I've kept away from for years. I will re introduce wine back into my regime but nowhere to the amount I was consuming previously and I've always loved drinking water. I look forward to your book being published and wish you every success."

"I am so happy with the program. Yes, it requires that bit of extra effort but I am absolutely euphoric with how I feel!!! The true test came on Wednesday when I met (with) a client at an Italian coffee shop with "divine" pastries. I had had my afternoon snack before going and had planned to have something if i wanted to. I know this will sound pathetic, but previously there is no way I would have walked out with out eating something and taking some home. BUT it wasn't even an issue this time! I looked and thought well they look yummy but I really don't feel like I WANT any. I'll see if I want to buy one for later and I forgot all about it, walking out of the shop without anything. And the ripples are extending to my family. My daughter always has a "good" breakfast, porridge or egg this morning a first, she wanted capsicum and celery with her egg and toast. Thank you again."

"I am back at work and after a tiring first day I feel tiredly pleased with myself. I am taking it easy and getting everything done but in a paced and thoughtful manner.¾I am not leaving things to pile up but dealing with each thing as it comes up. I feel focussed and with enough energy. In addition to the supplements and diet, which I am sticking to, the water is definitely helping me to sustain concentration and effort. I¾owe you and your expertise a great deal for my recovery."

"I feel I need to complete our contract by thanking you for the very big part you played in my health recovery. In only two months I have lost two stone, my liver function is back to normal, I have energy and feel very fit and the diabetes glucose test showed that for the last three months it averaged 6.8 which is good as this included September when I hadn't really started on the program. The endocrinologist is very pleased with my progress and when I see him in three months I know that my average will be even lower. Despite the fact that my friends think I'm obsessing about my health (oh go on a cup of coffee won't hurt, etc., etc.) I know that the good habits I have installed, thanks to your care and support will be ongoing. The diabetes has been a Mac truck experience for me which has forced me to unearth all the patterns that kept me in ill health and functioning below par on lots of levels. So a very big thank you to you and I wish you every success and will recommend your program to whosoever needs that kind of support.
ps. I also bought some new clothes as my others are dropping off me. Will have to get me mum to take them in!"

"I am actually arriving into work and steaming through stuff, I used to be useless before 10am and my first coffee, I was so groggy and not with it. At the moment I'm ready for anything! Thank you - I am so encouraged."

"I have noticed a few things: first of all, no real coffee cravings. I was at a meeting yesterday and everyone had a cup of coffee, so the smell of coffee was clearly around, but I had no urge to have some, and quite happily stuck to water. Second big change has been how I feel when waking up in the morning. I used to need quite a bit of time to be really awake, but this week (and especially the last two days), I have woken up and been really awake straight away. Nice feeling, I must say. And finally my skin seems to have benefited from this diet: it got pretty bad early in the week, quite a few pimples, but it looks much clearer now and a lot less black heads."

"I am feeling stronger. I have more energy, and can sustain effort for longer.¾I still get tired quickly but I'm getting better gradually. The dietary changes over the past few weeks have been a huge benefit to me. I would not have done it on my own. When¾I go shopping now I find I'm not looking at¾many of the foods I used to buy and I go for many new foods."

"THE JEANS! - the best part about my whole Christmas - you will giggle! I have a pair of Levi's in the back of my wardrobe from a trip O/S about 4/5 years ago and they are a great colour (which was discontinued) to cut a long story short, I love them and have not been able to get into them for about 3 years now but could never bring myself to throw them out! Well on boxing day evening as it turned a bit chilly I went to pull on some tracky pants and thought "I wonder if......" - I was a bit nervous and wondered if I was being a bit cocky about the weight I had lost but tried anyway........they not only fitted they were a tad loose around the hips - I then did my own little fashion parade! Unbelievable I am so happy Helen - I am unconcerned in kilos as to what I have lost but the joy of feeling good in my clothes is just fantastic! I am also on the way to needing a new bikini as my pants are now a little too big! I just love it."

"I'm really enjoying eating like this. I have been a bad eater, meaning that I don't really like eating, but this has been very easy for me."

"I feel energetic in a very equal way, no major ups and downs I feel "fluid": I don't know another word for it, but all my limbs feel very supple and well-oiled. I feel well rested. I sleep extremely well, despite the heat, and wake up refreshed."

"I am feeling "sharper" and "clearer", more alert, mentally. Somewhat hard to describe, but you know what I mean. Also seem to be a bit more cheerful. Saw mother yesterday, who has not seen me since Christmas, and she seemed to believe that I have lost weight. I may have lost a cm or two off the gut. Macca's and fizzy drink temptations still exist, but I remind myself that I would be sabotaging my own efforts if I ate any - so I do resist the temptation to indulge. I am now replacing the "eat junk food for dinner" habit with the "cook something for dinner myself" habit."

"I have noticed that my skin is improved - long standing dry, flaking skin on face nearly disappeared - dandruff lessened - rashes of tiny blisters, peeling skin on index finger of each hand diagnosed by my g.p. as "allergic reaction" cleared up spontaneously. I strongly suspect skin probs may have been sugar related - dry skin since high school - when I started drinking lots of Coke...water consumption reduces fizzy drink cravings. Fizzy drink simply makes me thirstier, but water quenches."

"Thank you for providing a structure for me to really kick start a healthy lifestyle. I was so glad to have that structure after my miscarriage. It felt that even though I didn't carry this one, I was already working on creating a really healthy environment to try again. Thanks also for the referral and for the ongoing concern around my progress with it. I haven't had a migraine for a couple of weeks, even though I have felt the beginnings of a couple, they just didn't eventuate. I am so grateful to have found a treatment provider who is so confident about an ongoing solution. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thanks for highlighting to me just how far my diet was out of balance. I now have an much higher content of vegetables and almost no white carbohydrate. I have decided to eliminate wheat as much as possible as well.

I feel really terriffic in my body. My clothes fit better. The best part for me though, is that I look forward to my walk every ¾morning. After my hip injury I was advised not to exercise for ages, then when I finally got the OK to exercise, my motivation seemed to have died and I felt like a log. Its now BACK! I love that! All in all, I really benefited from this program. I realise I respond really well to having to report in, I learned a lot about my diet and I restarted an exercise routine. I certainly got my money's worth!!"

"After week 3 I have noticed a few changes and all of them good. I have lost 5 kgs. This is the 1st time I have been under 100kgs for about 10 years!!! I wake much earlier and I feel great especially after my Lemon hot drink. During the day I find myself with a lot more energy. I enjoy my walking each day. I do it after work. Overall I feel lighter & fitter."

"My clothes definitely have more room in them which is fantastic and I am even squeezing into some things that I haven't worn for ages. I have had comments from everyone where I work - they have really noticed the difference. I am no longer feeling bloated after I eat something. ¾My skin is very clear and vibrant. ¾I am feeling fitter and my calf muscles are becoming a lot more toned. ¾I have noticed that I have toned up around the hip and thigh area as well as the tummy which is great. So generally I am feeling pretty damn good."

"I'm having so much fun, I can't wait to get the emails each morning!"
