Metabolism Diversity

All you have to do is look around to realize that people are different. If you're a pear, you gain weight in the hips and thighs. If you're an apple, you gain weight around the middle. I know someone (the husband of one of my friends) who first gains weight in his face! The fact is while we can be classified into general categories, we are all really quite different from one another in every way, including our metabolisms. It should be no surprise to anyone that metabolisms come in different models. Many of you have friends or family members who can eat whatever they want and maintain a healthy weight, while you may have been fighting your weight your entire life. For example, take my sister and me. No one in the world is as genetically close to me as my sister. Same mother, same father, same height, same eye color, same hair color, and only 15 months apart. That's about where the similarities stop. I'm a pear; Cindy's an apple. I'm 58 years old with no signs of diabetes or prediabetes, while at 57 Cindy has been trying to manage her type 2 diabetes for nearly 20 years. So close genetically and yet so different. I didn't buy this book for me ... I bought it for my sister, but I have been reading it so I can help her. I now know why we are so different ... I have Metabolism A; Cindy has Metabolism B. If you have a roll around the middle and gain weight easily, you may have Metabolism B like my sister. If you do, you need to order this book today! Diane Kress, who struggled with her own Metabolism B, has come up with a three step program which will teach you how to live a life in harmony with your own unique metabolism. Step One is carb rehab. You need rehab because carbs cause your pancreas to overreact and to release excess insulin to handle the rise in blood glucose. Your brain then gives you the signal to load up on more carbs in order to quickly raise the blood glucose. You are going to have to go through rehab to break this cycle. Step Two is transition, a healthy path to carbs. Once you have completed Step One, your overactive pancreas has rested, your liver is functioning better, and your Metabolism B is ready to be reprogrammed to process carbs normally. Step Three gives you the tools to keep the weight off for a lifetime. First you will identify your carb range, and then learn which carbs you can eat and how far apart to space your allotted servings. In this chapter, you'll find all the tools you need to continue your success ... charts, lists, and even tips on what to do when you slip up. You may have Metabolism A, like me, but chances are you know someone with Metabolism B. About 45% of the population is afflicted with Metabolism B. When you see a young slender body with a small roll around the middle, you are probably looking at a person whose future includes weight-related health issues due to Metabolism B. While The Metabolism Miracle can help anyone, those with Metabolism B will benefit most.

Diane: Thank You for saving my life!

My wife has been a client of Diane Kress for almost a year. I can tell you first hand that this program really works. She looks fantastic and feels great. It's not just another diet book on the market. My wife tells everyone she knows about it. We purchased copies of the book as gifts. My wife wishes that she met Diane years ago. It changed her life. The book is a must read. It is very educational. A completely different approach to weight loss. Once you learn the plan, and see the results for yourself, you too will be a changed person.

It is a miracle!

For years I tried all kinds of diets saying to myself they should work if I really follow the rules, but they didn't. I thought I failed. Yet deep down I knew there was more to it. I'm not that lazy, yet the scale said otherwise. Then I learned about The Metabolism Miracle...and it is a miracle. In very clear language Diane Kress explains why my physiology doesn't fit the mold of all those other diets. She tells me why I am different and why those other diets will never work for me; something I knew but didn't understand. And it's backed up by fact based on Diane's research and physiology of the human body. A lot this has been known for a long time, yet no one has put the puzzle together like Diane has before. The book is full of information on how my body's metabolism works. The book explains each phase of the program in easy to follow steps and how your body will react to each step and it's full of data supporting each phase. In reading the book it seemed like there was an answer to each possible question - what if I slip (there's a plan to get back on track); what types of foods can I eat (not only are there sample menus, there are pages and pages of recipes); what do I do if I go out to eat; etc, etc. The book will be a reference book for me for years to come. I really am excited that I've found where I belong.

Miracle in the Works...

I've been practicing the Metabolism Miracle and have lost over 60 LBS/8 SIZES and still counting... as I continue phase 2 and strive towards my goal. My bloodwork has reflected positive results as well! This is the life-plan that I can live with as I'm provided with knowledge and tools to keep myself on track. Guilt is a thing of the past. I've even continued my weight loss while going through arthroscopic knee surgery! With these results, energy increases and exercise actually becomes enjoyable! This diet has spared me from the downhill cycle I was on. It is a MUST for anyone who is struggling or about to give up the struggle. Don't give up.... just try this diet. It is HOPE in a book! The chocolate, cinnamon and zucchini muffins are amazing. REVIEW FROM LORI GUILD, NJ: For anyone not fortunate enough to meet and work with Diane Kress, you must read her book - The Metabolism Miracle. As a devout chocoholic and extreme pasta lover, I didn't believe for one minute I could last a week without either. I wouldn't go to a restaurant unless they served pasta, couldn't make it one day without chocolate, and used to tell people that if I died in a vat of chocolate, I'd go happily. Now, I am living testimony that controlling those urges can be done... and it's easy! Yes, I say easy - - because living for a few weeks without Carbs and finally controlling those urges is so much easier compared to a lifetime of rollercoaster dieting and constantly feeling like your best just isn't good enough. If I can do it, anyone can, and I can't do enough to convince people The Metabolism Miracle is truly a miracle maker. There is real hope out there for anyone who has struggled and it's right here. I'm sure there are many people who will read about this book and think it's just another diet book... and I feel sorry for them... because they'll never discover the truth. So don't pass it by... what do you have to lose? Put yourself in Diane's hands for a few weeks and you'll see a difference in yourself that will last a lifetime.

Amazing weight loss results!

This diet has been the only diet that has ever worked for me. I lost over 20lbs within the first month and a half. The book makes it very easy to apply the diet to your regular life. The recipes are also great, simple and delicious! The chocolate brownie muffins are so good that you can even fool the most addicted chocolate-lover in to believeing that they are regular chocolate muffins! If you're ready for a new healthy lifestyle and the bonus of looking good, then this is the book and diet for you!
