For years I avoided the scale and my doctor as I continued to live "the good life." However, the truth came out the day I finally faced both. I was on the edge of morbid obesity and diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and Forestier disease. I had a choice: I could dig a hole using self-pity as a shovel and stay there for the rest of my short existence, or jump back into life with hope and vitality. Guess which one I chose! My first goal was to go into diabetic remission. I had to lose a lot of weight and cut back drastically on carbohydrates. Being an expert in yo-yo dieting, why would this time be different? This time, I looked at the whole picture. I dealt with my emotions and my thought processes while eating better and moving more. I faced the truth, cultivated self love, surrounded myself with the right people and got informed. I built a personal program I could stick with for good. I did that to save my quality of life. I wrote this book so others might benefit from my experience. This book is not a weight loss program; rather, it is the story of my journey toward optimal health in mind, body and spirit. "It wasn't just what I ate, how much food I put on my plate and how little I moved. What it really came down to was why this destructive behaviour had become a pattern in my life." With recipes from Eric Archambault, chef and teacher in culinary arts, member of the National Technical Committee for Skills Compétences Canada and membre of Compétences Québec.
