Jean Kreuger changing the world

I was expecting yet another diet book. I was delighted to find that this is not just another Diet Book. Jean Krueger writes not only of Nutrition, exorcise and helpful hints like so many have done before... but she does it with a personality, charm and sense of humor that will have you enchanted from the beginningJean Kreuger dives in where only a handful of authors have dipped their toes. Soon you will be swimming along with her through the normally dry subject of the psyche. As she takes you along with what I will describe as a "What makes you tick" approach and a positive attitude and honesty that is refreshing. You will gain an insight into the roots of weight control problems.You will gain an insight into yourself as well. Jean Kreuger has a warmth and energy that seems to pour off of each page that is very rare indeed. You will close this book to become the better person you are inside. You will also open this book again and again for there are hints, knowledge, experience, values and much more that you can apply throughout your everyday life.That is how Jean Kreuger is making this world better... one person at a time.

Jean Is my Role Model

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I thought i couldnt read anything knew from a weightloss book again, untill Jeans book. I have struggled with my weight all my life, but not anymore. Thanks to Jean her advice and book im down 40 lbs. Her book taught me skills for eating well for weightless,weight control,health,and contentment with food. Jean taught me I can still eat what i want but within reason,get my 10,000 steps in everyday,lots of water,and we eat everyday so we need to exercise everyday! Not only is this book awsome and helpful but its allmost like Jean is reading it to you,right next to you. Jean is sincere and has lived through so much in her life and has come so far. She was fat and understands how it is, she is skinny now and telling us how to be also,if she can do it,WE all can do it,so read on...Love Ya Jean,THANK YOU.

A Feast for the Soul

Filled with inspirational tips and pointers, Why The Weight--Dare to be Great! is a feast for the soul. For anyone who has tried to lose weight (and that includes just about everyone), you will be guaranteed success by reading this book. From the occasional tip, such as 'Eat asparagus and cantaloupe the day before your weigh-in---they are natural diuretics' to 'Buy a dog--they are exercise machines with hair', you will laugh, be informed and delighted, and inspired to get into action and over to your local weight-loss organization to see those pounds melt off. As a moderately-successful weight-loss person (I've lost 36 pounds so far), I picked up Jean Krueger's book for a boost. I've been on a plateau lately and was considering going downstairs for a tiny slice of left-over pumpkin pie from Thanksgiving. Those last ten pounds have been eluding me. After reading Jean's book, I now realize that I've been guilty of the nibble syndrome--eating without recording---and I can easily skip that pie. I am certain that her tips will bring me back to the final weight-loss goal that I've been craving. This book is for everyone---those beginning their weight-loss journey, those thinking about starting, and the intermediates like myself who haven't quite reached their goals. In addition, it's an inspirational shot in the arm. Jean uses authors Don Miguel Ruiz, Stephen Covey, Harvey MacKay and Dr. Wayne Dyer, as well as her own stories and advice to uplift. In addition, she is a fountain of knowledge on every food and its qualities. This book is a must for anyone who wants to be spurred to positive action. It is a workbook in which you ask yourself Universal questions, such as WHO would I like to become? WHERE would I like to go? and similar searching questions which will create the new, goal-directed you. You are given practical instructions to get going on the behavior modification that will lead to success. It is a book to be read over and over again, to be savored and enjoyed.Marilyn Gibson,...

This is the best book on weight loss!

What makes Jean Krueger's book stand out from other weight loss books? She has her own compelling story--a story about how sad events in her life lead her to overeat. Almost everyone can identify overeating with filling a "hole in your heart," and I found this story very engaging. Jean gives practical tips on how to keep the pounds off, including keeping your shirt tucked in or eating in the nude! I've kept one for myself and bought some for Christmas gifts.
