Overview
Look no further - this book is going to help you lose weight and stay slim! How? Because Fiona did it herself, her own way, keeping slim for eight years, even though she loves her food and wine! This book is going to show you how you can do it too. Losing weight can seem like a mountain in front of you that is too difficult to climb. There is fear of hunger, grief for food you can't eat, impatience because you want to be slim NOW and worry because of failing yourself, or others, yet again. You want to wake up in the morning and be slim, yet because you know that cannot happen, you dither about making the decision to take that first step onto the mountain and start your journey. You've probably been telling yourself you will do it at some point in the future, but it never happens and you continue your search for some miraculous way for you to be slim. There are no miracles for weight loss - not anywhere. This book will help you start and continue your journey to lose it - slowly and for good! This book is certainly not a diet book, but instead teaches people respect for great tasting healthy food and the positive results of eating the right kind of food, in correct quantities for their individual bodies. Thin Thoughts For Life will help you get back in control of your body, mind, thoughts and your attitude to food, so that you can finally lose that weight. Under all that extra weight is the slim, sexy you - the you before you gained that weight. Fiona was able to find herself again and she can help you find yourself again too. A "must read" for anyone who has weight problems.
Description
Look no further - this book is going to help you lose weight and stay slim! How? Because Fiona did it herself, her own way, keeping slim for eight years, even though she loves her food and wine! This book is going to show you how you can do it too. Losing weight can seem like a mountain in front of you that is too difficult to climb. There is fear of hunger, grief for food you can't eat, impatience because you want to be slim NOW and worry because of failing yourself, or others, yet again. You want to wake up in the morning and be slim, yet because you know that cannot happen, you dither about making the decision to take that first step onto the mountain and start your journey. You've probably been telling yourself you will do it at some point in the future, but it never happens and you continue your search for some miraculous way for you to be slim. There are no miracles for weight loss - not anywhere. This book will help you start and continue your journey to lose it - slowly and for good! This book will teach you to totally re-evaluate your self, your body and your relationship with food. You will learn how to understand your own body rhythms and requirements for nutrition, so that you naturally eat when your BODY requires food, rather than eating because your MIND tells you to. You will see all the wonderful foods you can eat and learn how to understand your own body, so that you know how much to feed the individual, highly complex machine that your body is. You are going to shift your body from an upward spiral of weight gain to a downward spiral of weight loss, so that you can just happily get on with your life, knowing your weight is slowly decreasing, rather than slowly increasing. There is a task in the book which is very important to the decision you are finally going to make about getting the weight off. Thin Thoughts For Life will also show you how to feed your children properly, from a nutritional point of view, with food they will like. It discusses sex, when overweight and when slim, acupuncture, vitamin supplementation, the psychological aspects of constant dieting and binge eating. It encourages people to buy locally produced fresh food where possible. There are some interesting recipes. This book is certainly not a diet book, but instead teaches people respect for great tasting healthy food and the positive results of eating the right kind of food, in correct quantities for their individual bodies. Thin Thoughts For Life will help you get back in control of your body, mind, thoughts and your attitude to food, so that you can finally lose that weight.

About the author
When meeting Fiona Mackenzie Wall, one is immediately struck by her tenacity to achieve not only her own goals and dreams, but those of others. She has a passion for helping others to see their own potential for improvement and greatness and believes wholeheartedly that we each have the energy of "Source" inside us that is just there waiting to be found. A firm advocate of the power of the sub-conscious mind, she's convinced that as a species, through our individual thought, we have the capacity to live in harmony with each other and the planet we inhabit. Environmental issues are a top priority and throughout Fiona's writing, you will see references to the importance of locally grown and organic food. Fiona is a member of Treesisters.org - a group of women that started in the UK, but are quickly spreading globally. "The focus of the group is a call to women to help reforest the World and move towards the feminine higher self in each of us. The plan is then to start to change our relationship with each, other as human beings and with our relationship to Mother Earth, so the damage and devastation of our Planet will stop." Writing has always been a part of Fiona's life and concerning weight loss, she felt she needed to tell others how it was she came to the end of the battle over her own weight. After struggling for six years and trying every diet under the sun, she came up with her own ideas about eating and successfully lost 38lbs. Having kept the weight off for many years, Fiona decided it was time to help others to do the same. Fiona is also a photographic artist, and more recently has started painting. Much of her work is abstract and she uses both the camera lens and sometimes the computer to create an image she is happy with, that is more like a unique painting than a photograph. Fiona has lived in the Devon countryside for the last twenty years. She describes her writing as a desire that's been handed down through the generations of her family, from her Mother, Great Grandmother and William Paley, whose published works include "Evidences of Christianity".
