John Starr - Weight Loss  


 

My specialized field of medicine is cardiology - I am a heart doctor.  Since diet, exercise and obesity play such an important role in controlling heart disease I have always had a keen interest in how people manage their body weight.  Weight loss, diets, supplements, spas, clinics - I am constantly asked questions about what works.  I am also fascinated and somewhat frustrated about how such a very serious subject is handled in our culture. 

I see people everyday that absolutely must control their eating habits and lose weight.  It angers me to see how our culture confuses and complicates the process of managing weight and eating a healthy diet.  Losing weight and managing your weight need not be a complicated, frustrating process.  In very simple and direct terms, Life Practicesm provides a way to help solve the endless cycle of gaining and losing weight.  Regular exercise, combined with smart eating and good coaching is our answer. 

For those who have a lot of weight to lose, you should see your doctor and/or a nutritionist and discuss Life Practicesm.  The team effort of your doctor and nutritionist along with your coach and Life Practicesm provide a powerful strategy to resolve this important health issue. 

On a personal note, I want to comment on using Life Practicesm.  Even though I am a physician dealing with health issues every day, for many years I neglected the fundamentals of preventing heart disease.  I exercised sporadically, ate a poor diet and did not take control of a very stressful and extremely busy lifestyle.  On the surface I was healthy, but in reality I was very unhealthy.  I think a lot of us fall into this trap.  We know what to do, but, somehow, it gets deferred, or, worse, never gets done.  Losing weight was my demon.  There is no magic pill that will solve this problem.  The best medicine is a long-term commitment to exercise and smart eating.  Life Practicesm helped me reach my weight goal and continues to keep me on track.   The key is "coming to practice" and having a good coach.

I urge you to join Life Practice™.
