“Thank you and for all of the amazing work being offered in the current Weight Loss and Health course. This class has helped me face deeper issues related to my weight and health.  So much freedom became available to me in redoing this course.  Working on the resistance exercises, and the exercise on being thin has greatly helped me to see what I was holding onto.  Now feel much more comfortable in my body. 
 
Several years ago (because of releasing) reduced my weight by 80 pounds after pregnancy.  My cholesteral levels had also dropped more than 200 points.   And although these gains were significant accomplishments at the time, other insecurities remained.  In redoing this course, I found that I was still holding onto issues of my former heavier image.  For the first time ever can appreciate my own weight-loss success story.  The need for protecting myself with fear, anguish and pride is no longer running. 
 
Facing deeper layers of resistance about my weight and body image has given me a tremendous opportunity to let go of limitations that weren’t serving my highest good.  In doing this coursework I really made the decision to embrace being imperturbable about my weight.  Also became imperturbable about several past health issues (hospitalizations and other issues related to previously working in a hospital setting).  Addressed the pattern of losing/regaining the same 15-20 pounds.  Issues that were previously uncomfortable to face have transformed into acceptance.  AGFLAP and past stories are less bothersome. 
 
Although my weight hasn’t changed much during this course, I’m perfectly Ok with the triumphs that were accomplished.  The focus of going for imperturbability more than a number on the scale has helped me in a big way.  Honestly feel the remaining weight will resolve itself.  Really focused on cleaning up on issues related to numbers (the number on the scale, dates and time, etc.).  There is no more pressure to succeed. 
 
Other victories include:  My completion has improved.  Pain in my shoulder, legs, wrist and heart are no longer there.  Breathing is more comfortable.  Stretch marks appear to be less visible (or perhaps I’m just less bothered by them).  I never worked on any of these issues directly — so these are really tremendous gains!  Found several programs about making mistakes and just released them.  Feel more loving towards myself.  My relationship with my body and food is becoming more in harmony. 
 
Just know that all these victories are significant to other areas in my life.  Thanks so very much for re-offering this course!”
 
With Much Love,
Christine
