About this ebook

You want a diet book. You think you can handle this. Probably not unless you have the emotional guts to really look at what YOU have done to yourself AND how your family, friends and yes of course the media has brainwashed you into a mental midget around food. You deal with food the way everyone else tells you too and until you can form your own relationship with food and what you do with it you will definitely be tied to the body you now have. The Mental Diet and The Complete Workbook and Personal Journal can change that.

John P. Rademacher

I struggled with being fat all my life. I figured it was just me and over many years I continued to beat myself up over my lack of will power and self esteem. Then I came to realize that if all these people losing weight and gaining it back on all sorts of good and bad diets what did the winners have in common or what was the common denominator. I became convinced and then proved it too myself; it was a mind set. A commitment that didn't allow for failure but presumed emotionally that success was inevitable! The Mental Diet will get you there! I Promise You. john Please contact me at johnr@jprco.net!

    About the Authors

    *****

    Forward

    First and foremost, this is NOT a diet plan! It is the missing link to a lifetime of successful weight control. It might better be described as a diet preparation class. There have been hundreds if not thousands of diets and no matter what the plan; many people have used them to lose body weight. My goal is not necessarily to help you lose weight, although I’m sure you will. My goal is to help you better understand your personal relationship with food and how exciting life can be when you’re happy with your body just the way it is, while knowing you can recreate it just the way you want it to be. No stress and no diets necessary! This book is also intended to help you get the most benefit from any food plan you choose, and perhaps even more importantly, help you make an educated and healthy choice around your thoughts and actions with respect to food.

    Be forewarned, this life-changing experience can ONLY happen when you’re ready! I will supply the tools and information that will help. You need to supply the mental courage and dedication. Remember - your life is what you make of it! Don’t just settle for good. You have the power to make it GREAT! As you move through this book and workbook, you will become aware of food like never before. Your life will change. You will change. You will win! So, take a deep breath - your metamorphosis is about to begin!

    Important disclaimers and cautions:

    If you are heavy to the point that walking is difficult or you have other fears about your health, you must consult professional help! There are conditions that direct will power or mental fortitude although helpful, will still require medical assistance. Education and/or intervention beyond the scope of this book and workbook may be required. By seeking professional medical or psychological help you are not giving up, you are potentially releasing years of bad training. If you have any health concerns seek professional help. Without trying to relinquish responsibility for the thoroughness of this book and workbook I must acknowledge the need for each person to take significant responsibility for personal study and attentiveness to the causes of their personal assumptions about what food is and its affect on their health and welfare.

    Before you begin this book, if you’re reading it while eating, let me give you the first lesson right now:

    Put down the book and focus on whatever you’re eating.

    First smell the food like a fine wine and think about what it’s doing for you.

    Regardless of what your eating, begin to appreciate the energy, the taste, the texture and the satisfaction of truly enjoying something that most taste buds never get a chance to really experience.

    Here’s where you actually put the book down and eat!

    Well done.

    Now let’s start to recreate your understanding of, and relationship with, food.

    Welcome to your first experience of your new you.

    Part I

    Section I

    Important concepts the multi-billion dollar diet industry hopes you never learn

    First, let me congratulate you. By buying this book, you have taken the first step towards changing your life! I can’t promise you the road is easy, but I can promise that this is not a too-good-to-be-true scam. In fact, it will take a lot of courage, constant observation and just plain dedication. For the first time, you will learn to tap into the mindset of the elite who make staying healthy look so simple!

    The good news ─ it is simple. It’s just not easy!

    Once you begin to follow this routine, you will see results. You will reap the rewards. By the end of the journey, your self-confidence will soar! Clearly, a person with high self-esteem can make unbelievable strides, even in the face of incredible adversity.

    You will have the confidence to:

    1. Grow your self-esteem

    2. Enjoy a better healthy body

    3. Develop better relationships

    4. Get more dates

    5. Go after that promotion

    6. Actually feel good in your clothes!

    But most importantly, you will gain a better understanding of what you’re eating and what’s eating you - from the inside out! And…it will last a lifetime!

    If you’re anything like me, you bought this book because you’re tired!

    1. Tired of trying and failing the newest miracle diet!

    2. Tired of the weight loss yo-yo syndrome!

    3. Tired of food controlling you!

    4. Tired of the way you look and your lack of energy!

    5. Tired of feeling helpless!

    6. Tired of feeling like you’re out of control!

    Take your power back!

    Stop obsessing about food and start respecting your need and desire for it. Contrary to popular belief, your desire for food should be a welcomed and controllable one. Food is wonderful when used and understood properly.

    Let’s begin by changing the way you define the word "diet"!

    The word diet is versatile; typically misinterpreted as meaning that you eat and drink sparingly. No one likes the idea of restricting their food intake. You generally feel deprived and the experience is mostly negative. So...no more diets! Forget the word diet and begin your re-education program for your emotional and physical relationship with food. At the onset this may sound silly to some but you do have a very personal relationship with food. You will learn what it is and if necessary how to change it. You may need to divorce yourself from the way you think and feel about food.

    90% of dieters gain the weight back!

    What a staggering and heart-wrenching statistic - no wonder the diet industry is thriving!

    It’s an epidemic!

    Obesity affects about one in four adult Americans, and it’s the same in many parts of Europe. In the course of one year, over half of Americans and Europeans go on a weight-loss diet, a fact I find truly amazing. Unfortunately, diets only work while you’re on the diet. Seldom do they really change your life. The potential for gaining more than you originally lost is significant! I can see the various testimonials now, I went on this diet and weighed 200 pounds. Nine months later I went from 180 to 220. But it’s okay. I’ll try this new plan. It’ll work for sure.

    These diet people have your dependency down to an art, a very profitable art. I heard recently that you can even visit a doctor for a custom designed pill with just the right amounts of whatever the latest miracle drug is. A little more drug if you’re really heavy - and less for a small spare tire in your middle. Unbelievable! We all want it to be easy and quick, but it’s not. It took many years for you to develop your concepts and attitudes about food and health. It will take time to re-learn them.

    THERE IS NO QUICK FIX!

    Read This Part Very Carefully!

    The real problem that we all face and need
