Hi all, i'm confused... I've been reading about 'Cohens' here and it sounds interesting... I did a google and came up with Pete Cohen - Weight Loss Coaching Programme - FREE Trial (and a .com as well) - is this related?? are they related? ;-)

p.s this is funny:
YouTube - Weight Loss by Pete Cohen: ANTI-Health Plan

THANX In advance.

Z- This is the Australian web site-
Weight-loss and Wellness through Nutrition - Cohen's Lifestyle Clinic
In a hurry, have a hair ap't, cheers, Cate.

Thanx Cate,

so they're not related? I've signed up to petecohen.tv now anyhow and he makes a lot of sense... so we'll see... sorry to go off topic in this forum...



It seems to me that Australians are very health-concious people.. and take thier weight-loss very seriously - not to be fooled by fads etc... why do think that is? is it the weather that helps you all think straighter...?

Z

No it's not related.

Australians like most developed countries eat too much and move too little which is the reason for dieting, we are no different from these other countries and we are no different in trying out diets galore. I think though after trying so many fad diets you do eventually stumble on the one that works best for you and for this mob here it happens to be Dr Cohens - lifestlye Clinics.

Good luck with your choice.

Hi just wondering is this site up to date? and still being read, if so, I would dearly love to have a buddy to give me the help I'm going to need. Thanks so much Susan

Hi Susan,

Yes this site is still being used. Are you on Cohens? Cohens has its own forum and there are quite a few of us on there. Just look under "weight loss methods"

Hi RJM Thanks , thought I was all alone in this site for a while you have no idea how long it has taken me to even find your response!!!

Well all cohens people, I want ALL your input PLEASE I, like everyone:have been stung before; please tell me I'm going to be doing the right thing this time

Thanks Susan

Hi Susan, Cohen's works if you follow it 100%. I will provide you with any support I can. I completed Cohen's last year & lost 36kgs in 28 weeks. I maintained that for 6months, following the maintenance guidelines provided by my clinic. It has only been the last 2 months really that I let my guard slip & the maintenace principles went out the window. I have gained 7.5kg from my lowest weight. As of today I am back on my initial program. This time I will lose the weight, do re-feed again & follow the guidelines. That does not mean I cannot have a sweet or a glass of wine when I finish. It means I will follow their sage advice. Everything I have been told by Cohen's has been absolutely spot-on. It's just that I chose to ignore it. Now I have learned a valuable lesson. I plan on getting this weight off again (only 7.5kgs this time-not 36) & keeping it off forever!
All the best with your decision. I am very confident in the Cohen's program. It is a Lifestyle decision & requires determination & commitment. Bit like a happy marriage really! Cheers, Cate.

Gee Cate, you are a star...thankyou so much for your sound advise I want so badly to be healthy again, ..am off to do a course...will chat in the am, once again thanks

Susan
