Voracious reader: So many nuggets in this book. I’m going to have to reread and do the exercises to let them transform me. A few of her tips resonated with me.

I know that to truly get the most benefit I can’t just pick and choose which ones I want to do but I really will need to do the ones I want to avoid the most as that would be telling in my self sabotage.

Basically if you don’t recognize how you are sabotaging yourself how can you expect to make any changes.

RZ: I’ve tried every diet known to man, I take the weight off, never as much as I want, but then slowly it creeps back. The one thing that most diets don’t do is how to teach you how to get your mind right and get out of your own way. It is not teaching you what to eat, there are millions of other books for that, but here you learn to dig deep to determine why you never win , why you don’t keep the weight off, and how to change that - permanently. This is a great read for anyone who has truly struggled with weight loss, like me, and I would highly recommend.

Adrienne Furrie: Jen is a voice I can trust in the crowded noisy world of health and wellness, she brings science and a long history both personal and professional to what she writes about. I've just started the book and cannot put it down, I know I'll be staying up late tonight reading! I consider myself a healthy, fit person and I ALWAYS trust Jen when it comes to keeping myself that way and learning more about the ways we sabotage ourselves is info I definitely need.

LaffingKat: Jennifer Powter is a transformational health and life coach. In Stop Sabotaging Your Weight Loss, she shares personal stories, explanations of how we sabotage ourselves, and strategies for how to shift those patterns. She briefly addresses the basics of weight loss, but the focus of this book is the psychological reasons why we struggle with our weight.

The book is easy to read and written in a friendly, supportive tone. I liked the quotations that introduce each chapter. I found the chapters on fear particularly helpful. I appreciated the chapters on pleasure and gratitude, though I would have liked a little more about healthy ways to self-nurture and enjoy pleasure.

This book was intended primarily for middle-aged women, but I think it would be helpful for a wide audience. Most people struggle with some fears and negative beliefs, and this book provides gentle encouragement to end that struggle and live a happier, healthier life.

TS: Another brilliant and authentic book from Jennifer Powter! I joined the Weight Loss Academy a year ago. Jen’s approach is a breath of fresh air. While she urges an acknowledgement of past circumstances, she relentlessly encourages us to look ahead and create the life we desire. I love that Jen is authentic and real and not afraid to show women what is possible. She lovingly teaches about creating more intentional lives. Jen, you are such a bright, beautiful light and thank you for seeing the light out of your own pain and creating a vision + life that so many of us have benefitted from. With you, I continue to learn and grow. What a gift! Thank you so much.
