Does this sound like you? "I blew my diet!" you wail... Enough already! Are you fed up with your Crazy Cravings for cookies, chips or other "treats" chasing you and then pouncing on you like a ravenous lion? I'm here to help you Claim Calm Control, shed those annoying pounds, and Rebound After Relapse™. ...Why listen to me? Because I've been where you are. After my mother angrily, abusively died, I blew my diet big time -- I ate tons of carbage, gained 21 pounds, and was trapped in Weight-Gain Shame. But I also became intrigued... okay, obsessed! Why do people blow their diets? While slimming down again, I exhaustively researched the subject. Now I'm back with FEPPP™ (fast, easy, proven, powerful, portable) tools to help you get the body you seek. I'm author of Sugar Shock (Berkley Books) and Beyond Sugar Shock (Hay House).

We need to include disclaimers.

For any product I use or recommend, the following holds true:
