Do you need a little more help with your weight? Is it hard for you to lose weight?

I'm Dan Curtis, M.D. I have a new program that I think could help you.

When you are trying to lose weight, the only thing that matters is this: do you get the results you want?

That's why I started by asking people what they were looking for. What did they want from a weight loss program?

Here's what they told me they needed and wanted:

"I want to be healthy and not at risk for major health problems."

"…live longer, have a healthier lifestyle overall."

"Above all, I want to lead a long life, free of diseases"

The reasons given most often for wanting to lose weight are to be healthier and to live longer.

"So," you might ask, "will your program do that? Will I live longer and be healthier?"

The emphasis in my program is healthy weight loss. That means the right foods and the right activities and everything else that you need to help you get to your ideal weight and stay there.

Is it fast, easy weight loss?

It won't help you to lose a lot of weight and gain it back. In fact it can be harmful.

Therefore I cannot promise you fast, easy weight loss. In my experience it just doesn't work. There really is no such thing as fast, easy weight loss that is healthy and permanent.

But you can lose weight. And you can keep it off.

And you can become much healthier and fit and more active. You can enjoy life more. And live longer. And if you follow my program I think that you will get these things.

Are the results guaranteed?

No. I cannot guarantee your results. Let me give you an example that shows why:

I got an email recently from a young woman who was doing well but then started gaining weight again.

She said that she had, "put on weight because of lack of activity,"

And she was, "eating random little things between meals… emotional eating while stressed for exams… snacking throughout my days, sitting all the time."

She also, "worried that eating real sugar with the amount of tea/coffee that I drink throughout the day would make me fat…"

She was doing some things right. She was keeping a food diary, which had helped. And she knew she needed to get back to the gym.

I had to tell her the obvious truth, that you can't sit all day and eat snacks and sugary drinks and lose weight. Bodies don't work that way.

Who do you believe?

You'll find lots of opinions regarding weight loss. But how do you know what to believe?

One way is to find what has been proven to work. And that's just what I did.

There is some very good weight loss research. Real science. About what works in the real world, in real people. And that is what my program is based on.

Now, you don't need to dig through the scientific articles. I did that for you. And made it easy to understand.

So you can find out what works -- and what will work for you -- in the simplest, most straightforward way possible.

So you can look better. Feel better. Improve your health. Lengthen your life.

The program is easy to read. Easy to understand. So you get what you need to know. So you get the results you have been looking for.

Does it involve special diets?

The program doesn't require special diets. But it does show you what you need to know about nutrition.

Real nutrition. Not special foods. Not -- heaven forbid -- diet foods. But the food you eat now. The foods you love.

You don't need special prepackaged foods. But I show you what to do with what you eat now so you can lose weight. And keep the weight off. So you don't have to keep asking, "Why can't I lose weight?"

You'll learn more about what you are eating. So you can make better food choices. What will that mean? It will mean your body will start to work right. And you'll become healthier.

People who lose weight -- and who keep it off -- eat their own foods.

They eat the foods they love. What they grew up eating.

So that's what you'll do with this program. Your own foods. Even your special treats. There are no "forbidden foods." So it's a program that you can stick with. And if you can stick with it, you can get results.

Are there harmful foods? Some foods seem to pack on those extra pounds. And make it doubly difficult when you're trying to slim down. Find out what they are and what you can do about it.

Do you sometimes wonder why your previous weight loss efforts weren't as successful as they should have been? After all, you really tried, right?

One thing my program will do is to show you what was missing from what you were doing before. You'll say to yourself, "OK, now I get it." It can be quite a relief.

Can you lose weight without exercise?

Yes, you can. But frankly, it's much easier to lose weight when you add in exercise.

Exercise is important. But which exercise? Learn the three major kinds of exercise. And how they help you burn fat while staying healthy and strong and feeling great.

I get lots of emails from people that want to lose weight, and this is what they say they want:

"To be able to run and jump without hurting myself."

"I need to lose weight so I can have fun playing at the park with my kids."

"Be able to breathe easier."

I show you what activities you can do, that are right for your age and your body type. Not just to be able to be more active. But to have the right activity for you. And to make your activities more fun.

Avoid the traps

Are there unsuspected traps in your diet? Some foods are almost hidden. But they still affect you.

The hidden calories still add up and sabotage your best efforts.

Learn what they are, and what you should do instead. Make your food healthier and more enjoyable.

So you feel better, look better and enjoy your food even more, while you still lose weight.

And what about fad diets and gimmicks? Learn to spot the fads. The gimmicks. The false promises that lead to disappointment.

Instead you'll get the simple, straightforward, unvarnished truth. So you know what works. So you can do it without wondering. And you get the results you deserve.

How do you make the time?

I even show you where to find extra hours in your day.

Make it easier to eat right and exercise and still have more time on your hands to do the things that you really want to do.

Would losing weight help you feel more attractive?

A reader wrote that she wanted, "To be able to look good in a tight dress."

What would it really take for you, so you do look good in a tight dress? Or a new suit?

Another person said, "I want to be able to go swimming without feeling self conscious." I show you what to do to get there. So you'll like the way you look in a bathing suit.

"I want to lose weight so I can date more often and not feel so insecure." I think my program could help you with this. There may be some things with your diet that need adjusting. You can use what you learn with my program to lose weight and feel more secure when you go out on dates.

Be there for your kids -- and grandkids

Some people tell me that they don't have any trouble with their self concept, and they aren't worried about how they look.

They just want to lose weight because it is affecting their health. That's fine. If that's you then you'll find what you need in my program. If you follow what I outline you will lose weight, you'll get to your goal weight, and you'll stay there.

Others have said...

"To reduce my blood pressure." Blood pressure tends to go up when you gain weight. And it can come down -- sometimes dramatically -- when you take off a few pounds. You can lower your blood pressure. You might even be able to get off your medication altogether.

"To not have fear going to the doctors, because he'll make me get on a scale." It can be embarrassing. And you don't want another lecture. But what if you heard your doctor say, "Your weight is down again this visit. Keep up whatever you're doing!"

"My high weight is affecting my blood pressure and kidneys and eyes and reducing my life. I want to live healthier and longer." What's causing this? And what should you do about it? You need something that works, for you. So you can be healthier and live longer.

Making progress and breaking through the weight loss plateau

Did you ever hit a plateau? You know, where you're doing great, and then all of a sudden, nothing. Your weight just sticks?

I show you why that happens. You'll see what to do about it. So you can get back on track. And really reach your goals this time.

Not just what exercise but when to exercise for the maximum benefits. Not too little, but not too much. It doesn't have to take a long time to get the health benefits of exercise.

How to keep track of your progress. As the pounds come off your body changes. Keep track of your progress for the best possible results in the least time with the least effort.

Do you have to exercise?

No, you can lose weight without exercise. But when I asked people whether they wanted a program with exercise or not, here is what they said:

"Lack of exercise is unhealthy."

"Because weight loss without exercise will not stay off and is probably unhealthy."

"I would feel better from exercise."

"I actually like to exercise."

"I love to stay active and get the heart pumping faster and more blood. I want to shed pounds and sweat."

"I worry that anything that doesn't include exercise will ultimately be unhealthy."

"Exercise is a part of being successful."

"You are not going to lose weight sitting around watching TV."

"I love to be outdoors. So doing outdoor exercise would be nice."

"I think exercise is important in everyday life, and I would want to learn how to do exercises correctly. I would also like to build up my stamina for the future, so that I could be able to go out and jog or run without huffing and puffing."

"I would like to do limited exercise, which I think would encourage a better outlook."

"Proper diet combined with regular exercise enables quicker weight loss."

"Moderate exercise would be okay. I am too tired when I get home from work to exercise too much. Moderate walking would be okay but nothing for a long period of time that would tire me out more than I already am."

"I would be wary of any program that helps you to get fit without exercise."

"I like to exercise, but I rarely have time for it. I know it works, though."

"I think weight loss without changing the amount of energy burned is temporary."

"I believe diet and exercise are the only way to keep the weight off."

"It would seem like a scam if you did not have an exercise program attached to the program."|

And then there was one other lone voice, among all the people who responded, who said:

"I hate to exercise." But we have a solution for that too...

Proven approach to weight loss and fitness

A man named Scott Helvenston -- one of the finest athletic trainers in the world -- helped develop some of the exercise concepts in the book. Here is some feedback we received:

When Weight Loss Is Personal...

Now, there are people that just want to lose a few pounds. It would help them feel better. Their jeans would fit better.

And that's fine. I think that is a great goal and I encourage them to do that. They will feel better and look better and be healthier in the long run.

And if that's you, and you follow my program that is exactly what you'll get.

But what if it's not just a few pounds that you need to lose? What if it means more than that to you?

For some of us losing weight is more personal. Weight loss is personal to me.

I actually had trouble with my own weight while I was growing up. There were cookies and desserts at every meal.

When I was a kid I was teased for being overweight, so I know how painful it can be. Now, not everybody that's overweight is teased. But many are. And I know how it feels and I don't take it lightly.

But when I got out on my own I lost the extra weight. That was many years ago and I've always kept a healthy weight and have stayed active since then. And the things I include in my program are the things that I do myself. So I know that they work.

People that I care about have had trouble with their weight. My mother always had trouble with her weight. I know what it meant to her when she tried another diet that didn't work. Another weight loss group. Fad diets. Hypnotism. Flab rollers. All of it.

She would lose weight and gain it back. It was very difficult and it was emotionally painful.

So I do actually care if you lose weight. It means something to me. Because I understand what it can mean to you. It's important.

How important is it? Here are some comments I've received:

"I need to lose weight because if I do, it means I have broken the cycle of depression caused by stress eating and stress eating caused by depression. It will mean I have regained power over my emotions, my fears and my life."

"I need to lose weight to regain my self-esteem. I know I shouldn't allow the weight to affect my self-image, but it does. No matter how great a personality I may have, people don't see the awesome jokester, cut up and former cheerleader. They see a fat, lazy person who doesn't take care of herself like they do."

"I need to lose weight so maybe my depression will get better and I can stop taking the medications for it."

"…to show my girls it can be done and it can be done right. No crash diets, no starvation - healthy eating and exercise - and figuring out what to replace the stress eating with until I can break the habit."

"I need to lose weight to find who I am now. Not the fat, ugly exterior I see in the mirror, but the quietly, confident woman I was before is somewhere in here hidden in the folds of fat. I want to bring her back out and reintroduce her to the world. Thank you for the opportunity…"

"To stop my feeling that people laugh at me."

"To live long enough to enjoy my grandchildren."

"To be able to climb stairs without losing breath."

"I think it would help me to get a job."

"I want to be beautiful for my future boyfriend."

"…have less back and knee pain."

"I only have to buy one seat on an airplane."

"I want to be healthy and not at risk for major health problems."

"Because my husband hates the way I look."

"Because my kids call me fat."

"Because I don't feel good."

"So I don't end up with diabetes."

"To have my wife make love to me again."

"The other day I had lunch at a friend's home and the chair collapsed under me."

"To make sure my wife does not leave me."

"So I won't have a stroke."

"Lose weight so I will not become a diabetic - Lord, I do hate needles - please help me."

"So my teenage children are not embarrassed about the way I look."

"Lose weight so my children will want me to come to school."

"So I will not have to wait for the handicapped stall in the bathroom."

"Lose weight so I can find a bra that actually fits. My shoulders are aching, I am spilling out of the bra I have and I hate the dents in the top of your shoulders!"

"Finally keep the weight off so I would have to ever worry about a diet again."

"Make sex easier with my husband."

"It would not be a distraction so I could focus on other aspects of life."

"I am only 28 years old and have arthritis - I need to stop the joint pain!"

"I want to lose weight to be beautiful."

"I need to lose weight to show my girls it can be done and it can be done right. No crash diets, no starvation - healthy eating and exercise - and figuring out what to replace the stress eating with until I can break the habit."

"I want to lose weight to be sure I outlive my cat, I want to be there for her."

"To give me a trendy look."

"I am a breast cancer survivor, and there is less chance of recurrence for physically fit women."

"I will look more attractive to my spouse."

"Above all, I want to lead a long life, free of diseases."

"So I can see myself as attractive."

"To avoid the pain and heartbreak of not being asked out."
