The Debfit Method - Weight Loss Secrets (Paperback) Review

The Debfit Method - Weight Loss SecretsYou may, but not likely. I'm Deb Leblanc, author of THE DEBFIT METHOD© and as a professional fitness trainer I am expected to look a certain way; fit, slim, strong - the essence of glowing health. As a personal trainer in Toronto and in my early years in Vancouver, I was thick all over.

Politely considered a husky girl, strong yes, but slim no. I loved helping people lose weight, get fit and embrace a healthier lifestyle but I was struggling with my own weight issues, alone. I was unhappy, frustrated and desperate to figure this out.

It has taken all of my 20+ years in the fitness industry to meticulously design THE DEBFIT METHOD© Weight Loss Secrets. Trust me when I say a lot of frustration, sweat & tears went into putting together this weight loss lifestyle guide.

This book will help you lose weight, whether it's 80lbs or the last 5lbs, this systematic healthy lifestyle guide will help women everywhere lose weight safely and permanently.

Thanks so much! Wishing you a happy & very successful weight loss journey!

enLIGHTened: How I Lost 40 Pounds with a Yoga Mat, Fresh Pineapples, and a Beagle Pointer [Hardcover] Review

enLIGHTened: How I Lost 40 Pounds with a Yoga Mat, Fresh Pineapples, and a Beagle Pointer [Hardcover]I discovered the joys of yoga and pilates a year ago.I love it, although I am not as flexible as I would like to be (Jessica actually talks about this in her book).So, of course, this book hit me and I had to read it.

It is extremely well written, with honesty and I love that Jessica was completely opened about her weight issues, as well as some of her relationship issues with her parents.This book feels like a girlfriend and I talking -

I love the subject matter and Jessica touches on Ayuverda which is something that I have developed an interest in as well.Its almost as if Jessica was reading my mind.

I even love the quick and healthy recipes that are in the book.I have to say though, that, at times, Jessica makes the whole overeating thing a little too simplistic.As someone with an eating disorder (binge eating( its not always quite enough to talk to yourself or go for a long walk - but Jessica is right about trying to get to the root of the problems.

One of the things that I felt a little off about was the fact that Jessica always seems to have the time AND money to do all the things she wants to do. ALthough she and her hubby sounded as though they were not necessarily stable in the finance dept, especially since he was looking for another job - she goes ahead and becomes a yoga teacher and from the rest of the book, I did not get the feeling as though Jessica really ever had a full time job other than that of teaching yoga.Yet, she seems to be able to benefit from everything from Kripalu retreats to invitro, etc. I felt a disconnect there - what about the rest of us who have to hold down full time jobs, juggle kids and are just making ends meet???

I know that Jessica claims that you don't need a lot of $$$ to be healthy, etc. - she does not really lead by example on that particular subject.Yet, this is her story, so I guess she is just telling us what she lives.

I know, from experience, that if you want to get totally healthy and eat all these nutritious meals and enjoy walking, yoga and other various activities as suggested, you had better have a gift for making time for yourself AND a nice little amount of money to do it with.

Still, this book is hearwarming and encouraging and i loved it.

The Yoga Body Diet: Slim and Sexy in 4 Weeks (Without the Stress) (Paperback) Review

The Yoga Body Diet: Slim and Sexy in 4 WeeksAs with any book claiming to give you the quintessential "Body" with a few easy steps I was skeptical. But this book illuminated some easy lifestyle changes (how the body naturally cleanses at night if you don't indulge at night...) that I could incorporate with my yoga practice. I've read other books on Ayerveda and its health benefits but often felt lost and hopeless -- that I would never be able to integrate its principles into my busy and always changing day to day. This book was written with clear, concise and easy to follow instructions on how to live by these principles - with a fun voice. You'll discover so much about your current state of health and the next page presents the solutions for a better you! Yoga, health and self is a constant study and practice and this book is a refreshing voice.

Product Description:

This diet gives you a long and lean yoga body by teaching you how to eat right for your type. No yoga experience is necessary, and you don't even have to be able to touch your toes to follow the program. With a simple self-test, discover whether youare Pitta (fire: tending toward irritability), Kapha (earth: tending toward sluggishness), or Vata (air: a bit on the flighty side). Once you know your type, the 8-week plan provides eating guidelines, meal plans, and 75 recipes-adaptable to each type-for food that tastes nothing like bland diet fare. While most weight-loss programs encourage speed and cardio, the exercise component of The Yoga Body Diet slows the body's systems, decreasing stress, blood pressure, and cultivating balance in the body. It's the perfect solution to the stresses of the modern woman's lifestyle.
