Most of us know did not know Jillian Michaels before she was the hard-nosed, physically fit, trainer from the Biggest Loser but that has obviously changed.
Jillian is a great example that anyone can make a drastic change in their life and personal appearance once they are dedicated to do so. It’s not always easy but she is proof that it can be done.
DDP Yoga Creator...Dallas Diamond Page
When most of us think about Yoga we tend to get a picture of stretching, flexibility, and serenity but for pro wrestler Dallas Diamond Page is changing all of that with a new and intense form of the ancient art that allowed a man to lose over 100 pounds.
However, this is not just a weight loss story. This is a very inspirational look into how a former disabled Army paratrooper got his life and health back by using this new Yoga system. Once you watch the video below, you can’t help but be motivated.
Why? Because not only was Arthur Boorman severely overweight, he was basically unable to walk on his own due to the excess weight and military injuries. Today, his story has turned him into an overnight internet sensation as his path from unfit to fit was documented via video.
Boorman used the DDP Yoga system designed by the former wrestler and it clearly had a dramatic impact on both his weight and lifestyle.
DDP Yoga Success Story...Arthur Boorman
The DDP system is known to be far more intense than traditional yoga and uses your natural body weight to create more resistance and results. It’s definitely a different kind of Yoga and, according to Boorman, the inside running joke is “It ain’t your momma’s yoga.”
Unlike lots of people who may have been overweight most of their lives, Boorman was a Gulf War Vet and obviously in decent physical shape in order to deal with the stresses of war. However, that all changed and he eventually ended up needing leg braces just to walk. Back injuries from jumping out of planes and his weight both led to a life of misery.
He ended up finding the DDP yoga DVDs on the internet and that started his amazing transformation.

Dallas Diamond Page’s Yoga Book
There is a great weight loss success story on the web today entitled “How I Lost 103 Pounds” that was written by Abigail Cuffey about Joyce Anderson from Richmond, KY. Joyce is 41 years old and was successful in losing over 100 pounds–103 to be exact.

If you check out her story, you will notice many lessons that could be used in your own quest to lose weight and finally get off the never ending diet wheel.
Here are a few of those lessons…
1. Resolve Binge Eating
Joyce started binge eating at the age of 13 and after the death of her grandfather. It is probably hard for the average 13 year old to recognize binge eating, yet alone do anything to stop it, but this article is written more for adults who probably understand if they are binging.
The key here is to recognize if you are using food for comfort and ask yourself “why” you are doing it. It is very similar to someone who turns to alcohol or some drug for a little relief except that it’s food. Ultimately, you will have to address the primary issue that is causing you the discomfort in order to eventually scale back on your overeating.
Clearly, it is more difficult than it sounds but the first step is in being able to recognize if you use binge eating for comfort and follow that up with getting help to resolve the main problem.
2. Know What You Eat
Joyce described that her big jumpstart came when she began to look for weight loss plans online and came across SparkPeople.com which helped her begin to log what she ate.
If you know anything about having financial problems, one of the fastest ways to get into trouble is to not know how much money you make and spend each month. Eventually, you will end up in a giant hole. The same thing applies to eating and more specifically how many calories you eat daily.
When it comes to diets that work fast for women, there are several that are popular among ladies that want to drop a few pounds fast but few of them work as fast as a liquid diet.
