Acknowledgements
I would like to thank all of the Readers who have shared their
healthy weight loss stories with me. Without you, this book—which
I hope will inspire others—would not have been possible.
Additionally, I want to thank others who have helped me to trans-
late my inspiration for telling this story into this book which you
are now reading:

a senior research consultant. His efforts have allowed us to bring
you science-based information that connects healthy eating to
weight loss.

was instrumental in giving shape to the Healthy Weight Loss Eating
Plan.

tute writing and editing skills.
