We start our diets off with such high hopes, declaring, "This is it " This is the point where we put our foot down, close our mouths and smile down at our scales, feeling confident in our ability to lose weight. And so it begins. We succeed for a day. A week. Maybe a month or two. We see results, but then something happens to disrupt our lives, and our diets fall to pieces. As do we. If that dieting rollercoaster is a familiar ride, don't despair. As Karen Imhof shows in her powerful debut book, you can break free from this vicious cycle. The Lost Weight Workshop will take you on a faith-filled journey that reaches far beyond the goal of weight loss to a place where food has lost its hold on you. This isn't another case of counting calories or cutting out nutritional groups. In these pages, Karen shares her own story, her inspiring insights and a whole new way of doing the "diet thing" that will transform not only your outer appearance, but your entire being: spirit, soul and body.
