They know how to get motivated – “I know many diabetic people, and the bottom line is I don’t want to be one of them! The thought of monitoring my blood and using needles and insulin to control it on a day-to-day basis is NOT something I wanted to do. Surprise! Instant motivation!” Find out what motivates you, perhaps your family and loved ones. Is it the fear of a chronic disease?
All the support they needed was online at www.zonediet.com. “I looked at the online menus and realized this was going to be easier than anything else I’ve tried. I love the great meal ideas. The best part is I finally know how to eat. What a relief to finally find a way of eating that I know I can do for the rest of my life”
They questioned authority! “The USDA has either lied to us for political expediency or is incredibly and criminally negligent. The feed-lot pyramid is killing people.” Check out Dr. Sears' pyramid at www.zonediet.com or click here.
You can’t fail on the Zone. “If I eat too much for one meal or if I have something that is not on my plan like during the holidays or at a party, I don’t punish myself by skipping the next meal or cutting it in half. I eat the next meal as scheduled to get my blood sugar back in line and my energy back.”
They realize the importance of controlling blood sugar; not too high and not too low. “I eat five to six meals a day — roughly every three hours. If more than five hours pass, then I notice a huge mood swing, and I desperately want to over eat and still want more. By eating every three hours, things run very smoothly. That’s why I keep Zone bars in my car and in my purse.” They don’t skip meals. See Eating at www.zonediet.com.
They do some form of daily exercise. “I made a commitment to work out and now exercise is as normal as waking up in the morning. I no longer dread it but rather look forward to it, especially if I’ve been working hard night and day. It’s an excellent stress release.”
Successful Zoners know that the Zone is a lifestyle not a diet that you stop once you reach your goal.

Review our testimonials at www.zonediet.com and www.drsears.com.
Success is more than counting calories. They understand that a “calorie is not a calorie.” It’s the hormonal consequences of insulin stimulated by too many carbohydrates. Remember it’s elevated insulin that makes you fat and keeps you fat. Hear Dr. Sears describe the Zone.
They avoid temptation. Instead of stocking their shelves with cookies, pasta, breads, chips, rice and noodles, they purchase foods from the shopping list provided on ZoneDiet.com
They practice portion control. Unfortunately, it takes about 20 minutes for your brain to receive the signals of satiety. You can do a lot of damage in just 20 minutes. Learn to stop eating before you have the feeling of being uncomfortably full. Consume a Zone meal and then pay attention as to how you feel for the next four hours. If you are mentally alert, have no cravings and have physical energy, your last meal was a hormonal winner!
They replaced one meal a day with a Dr. Sears Zone Shake or meal replacement bar and supplemented with OmegaRx. For more information, go to www.zonediet.com.
