Are You Ready to Break Free from Diets,
So You Can Reach Your Natural Weight and
Eat What You Want When You Want –
Even Chocolate?

I know -- It sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? But let me tell you, this system works. And it is NOT a diet.

Hi, I'm Gillian Hood-Gabrielson, Founder and President of Healthier Outcomes, specializing in a non-diet approach to eating and weight loss, known as Intuitive Eating. For the last 6 years as a fitness and Intuitive Eating coach, I have helped all kinds of people break free from diets forever and reach their body's natural weight without willpower, deprivation or guilt.

The relief and exuberance my clients feel when they learn how to move past the obsession, guilt, pain, and isolation they have lived with as emotional overeaters regularly brings tears to their eyes -- and mine as well.

There's a reason I'm listed on the first page of Google for intuitive eating. I have dedicated my life to helping people enjoy food, love their bodies, and, best of all, stop dieting for good.

To be doing something that so profoundly changes people's lives for the better could not bring any more joy or fulfillment to me. My clients not only lose weight, but they learn how to keep it off for good without dieting!

Imagine …

• Eating your favorite foods – and still losing weight
• Being truly satisfied with what you eat – without gaining weight
• Freeing yourself from food and weight obsessions
• No longer counting calories, carbs or fat grams
• No more weighing or measuring food
• No longer experiencing guilt because of what you eat or how you look
• No longer starving yourself silly to fit back into your favorite pair of pants
• Never having to spend an extra hour on the treadmill to burn off last night's binge
• Feeling energetic, confident, and in charge
• Having a steady flow of energy all day, every day
• Loving the way you look and feel
• Making peace with your body
• Never dieting, ever again.

Did you know that diets have a 95% failure rate? That's right - 95%!

In other words, you won't lose weight for good until you stop dieting and start listening to your body.

Why such a terrible failure rate? Because diets only address the symptoms of overeating, like weight gain. They don't address the causes. And until you address the causes, you can't create lasting change.

Think about it this way: If you have a leaking pipe, you can put a bucket under it, or you can fix the pipe.

Putting a bucket under the pipe prevents further damage, but it doesn't stop the leak. You have to continue emptying the bucket over and over again. You've dealt with the problem, but you haven't fixed it. If you never fix it, you will have to empty that bucket for the rest of your life.

A diet is just like that leaking pipe. You keep on dealing with the problem without ever fixing the root cause of the problem. Diets tell you when and what to eat, and you have to rely on willpower to get you through it. That willpower takes effort – just like emptying that bucket every day.

In almost all cases, willpower just doesn't last that long. As a result, you feel deprived, which leads to overeating and weight gain.

On the other hand, if you fix the root cause of your overeating, like fixing the leaking pipe, then you've solved the problem for good, which means:

• You can lose weight
• You never have to worry about gaining weight - ever again
• You love your body
• You escape food guilt
• You end your food obsessions
• You eat what you want, when you want it
• You exercise for enjoyment, rather than to burn extra calories, and
• You have more energy
  

Your Body Knows What It Needs.
You Just Have to Learn to Listen to It.

When you were a baby, you knew when you were hungry, and you screamed when you needed to eat. You also stopped eating when you were full.

But as you grew up, you forgot what real physical hunger feels like. You started taking cues from your parents: "Don't eat that; you'll spoil your dinner," or "Eat everything on your plate – there are children starving in Africa." You started eating when it was the right time of day to eat, like lunch time. Or you learned that food brings love or comfort: "Have a cookie; you'll feel better."

Think about it: We eat for many reasons that have nothing to do with hunger. Here are a few examples:

• Because it’s there
• It’s lunch time
• It tastes so good
• You feel bored
• Everyone else is eating
• You're putting off something you don’t want to do
• Your grandmother’s feelings will be hurt if you don’t take seconds
• You are tired, angry, sad, or stressed
• You're celebrating a birthday, graduation, promotion, or holiday
• You want “comfort food”
  

After a while, we forget what it means to feel hungry.
Even worse, we forget what it means to feel full.

No wonder so many people have trouble controlling their weight. No wonder so many people try diet after diet after diet with no long-lasting effects.

But it doesn't have to be this way. You can break free from dieting and emotional overeating – forever.

To do that, you must get back in touch with your body's signals.

Believe me, I know what it's like to try diet after diet. I began my battle against the bulge at age 13. Throughout my childhood and teenage years, I was obsessed with food. I ate to make myself feel better, but I always wound up feeling worse, guilty and ashamed, when I was done. What was I doing to myself?! I'd feel worse, so I'd eat even more … hating that vicious cycle the entire time.

I started dieting in my 20s, and I bet I tried every single one of them. Some of them worked and I'd lose weight for a while … but it would always come back sooner or later. In fact, during one five-year period I actually gained 40 pounds by dieting.

Sound familiar?

Then one day I got a call from a family member who knows just how to push my buttons. After a very stressful conversation, I hung up the phone and suddenly discovered myself standing in front of the open refrigerator door shoveling in handfuls of cheese on my way to the chocolate ice cream.

What was I doing?!

It suddenly hit me that I turned to food to make me feel better. At this time, I was on yet another diet and for this one I kept a food diary. Because I had been writing down what I was eating, for the first time in my life I realized that I was eating because of how I felt emotionally – not because I felt physical hunger. This realization had a profound impact on me personally and emotionally, and it has become the heart of my work with clients.

I've done years and years of research into emotional eating, not to mention living through years of personal experience, and I've helped hundreds of clients break free from their eating obsessions. Here's what one of them has to say:

"When I started, I really believed that there was no way I was ever going to lose weight and be able to eat. So far I had chosen eating.

"Working with Gillian through this process, I learned I could eat anything and that if I did eat what I wanted when I wanted, I was more satisfied and lost weight.

"I am now down two pant sizes without even giving it much thought; I just noticed my pants wouldn’t stay up. I was really happy to find that when I went shopping buying the same brand and style that my body had sculpted itself.”

"Not only have you shown me the right way to think about food, you actually told me that it is okay not to diet. I just need to listen to my body and it will tell me what it needs. And, best of all I can still eat chocolate and other "yummy foods". The difference now is that I don't deprive myself of my cravings, I am in charge of them.

"So far I have accomplished quite a bit towards my goal and I have learned to measure my success by how my clothes feel and how I feel. I have stepped off the diet yo-yo forever. Thank you so much. I feel inspired in a whole new way."

~ S. Broughton

"I have struggled with my weight all of my life. Despite being relatively fit and at times super fit, over the years my weight has fluctuated enormously. I also studied nutrition and have kept up-to-date with this subject to help me in my sporting challenges, but even this didn't help me get it right.

"When I started working with this Intuitive Eating process, it felt like I'd found the missing bit of the jigsaw puzzle. I already knew that 'dieting' didn't make sense. I knew which foods I should be eating and which ones I needed to cut back on, but it was only when I started recording hunger and emotional levels that I realized 2 startling facts. I was often, genuinely hungry – and yet I hadn't realized this before and so my over eating was sometimes because I had gone far too long without any food. And secondly, that I was often using food to fix my emotional moods.

"This has changed the way I eat, the awareness of what I eat and when. I lost 14lbs in 2 months and have gone on to lose 4 more. I highly recommend this program to others who struggle with their weight."

~ Jennie Bayliss
Red Dandelion, Weymouth

"I decided to try this approach after I met a lady at the market who mentioned to me that she had lost 80 lbs eating intuitively--which I had never heard of. When I thought back to the many diets I had been on and how I had always gained back the weight I lost, I realized that diets don't work and I am living proof.

"So I decided to try it and felt entirely liberated--not having to measure or weigh everything and it was enjoyable being able to eat the things that I wanted to eat intuitively.

"I also found that when you allow yourself to eat the things you enjoy--you stop craving them and can be satisfied with less.

"I am convinced totally that diets don't work and wonder why it took me so long to realize it. At first, I gained a few pounds but then I lost those and continue to lose weight."

~ L. R.

"When I started working with Gillian, I felt terrible about my body. I would beat myself up about every little slip and each time I weighed myself or looked in the mirror, I would feel awful.

"Gillian taught me how to love and care for my body. She taught me that I am not a bad person because I am overweight. I learned how to enjoy life now and not be a prisoner in my body.

"I feel much better about my weight now than I ever have, and I feel much healthier and freer now that weight is less of an issue for me. I believe Gillian is really helping women to become their best and live up to their potential. I feel sorry I didn't learn this sooner. I feel like I am finally being my own best friend."

Developed by a Doctor for Her Patients

This intuitive eating/non-dieting program, called Am I Hungry?, was developed by Board-certified family physician Michelle May, who was tired of watching her patients – people like you – try diet after diet without success. Overweight from a young age, Dr. May herself suffered the dieting dilemma until she realized that the thin people she knew ate whatever they wanted when they wanted.

Could it be as easy as that? Dr. May decided to listen to her body and trust her hunger signals, and it worked! She lost weight easily and she kept it off without dieting ever again.

Now she's created a program that teaches people like you how to get back in touch with your body so you can reach your natural weight easily while enjoying the foods you love.

Here's what people have said about the Am I Hungry? program:

"I used to believe that my thin friends have a ‘different brain' than I have. I didn't understand how they could eat so much more than me and be so much thinner. You have taught me their secret! What a basic concept, yet it eluded me my entire adult life until I began your program."

~ Ellen

"I am amazed that learning to be mindful about what and when I put something into my mouth, how easily I lost weight. I didn't lose this much weight during the 8 weeks I was on Atkins and I felt horrible the whole time I was depriving myself of carbs.

"For Thanksgiving I am going to Mexico on an all-inclusive family vacation and I have no fear that I will overeat. I know I can have dessert, wine, or whatever I want. I will have a great time eating wonderful food with my new eating skills!"

~ Marcia

"I love this workshop! I have been working hard on changing my eating habits for the last two years yet I was still overeating. This workshop gave me the specific tools I needed to become an instinctive eater. Now I am eating with intention and attention most of the time. That is a HUGE change from where I was eight weeks ago."

~ Tammy

"This program was the missing link in my efforts to lose weight! I was stuck in a vicious cycle and powerless to get out of it. This workshop was an ‘aha moment' for me.

"Now I instinctively know when to eat and when to stop eating. This has made a significant difference in how I move through my day and approach eating."

~ Jere

“This was the best workshop I’ve ever attended. Everything was relevant, easy to understand, easy to help make changes in my life."

~ Kathy

"This has been a positive and life-changing experience. It is quality and pleasure, not avoidance and deprivation when it comes to food. Now I am an instinctive eater 90-95% of the time.

"It is a great gift to not ever have to diet again!"

~ Diana
