Thank you for taking the time to share both your clinical and personal perspective. Exercise does make a difference both physically and psychologically. Without it, people cannot lose weight and keep it off. I truly appreciate both your comments and your professional support. Thanks, Dorothy Hi, Dr. Bedrosian.

As a clinical psychologist and a "gym rat" for over 30 years, I am thrilled to see your emphasis on exercise. Regular exercise not only aids in weight management, it improves mood and builds self-esteem. I hope your work gets wider exposure - you surely deserve a wider audience.

I do live my program, and I know that it works. It sounds as though your daily regimen is very similar. Congratulations because it is hard work. If you are the Phil Doran who wrote "The Reluctant Tuscan," please know that I loved your book, have given it as gifts and enjoyed the many positive responses from my fellow readers.

The inevitable conclusion is that none of these gimmicks work. DPF's ten simple steps work because they're simple, logical, and do-able. I've incorporated most (but not all) into my life and it's how I'm able to control my weight. It seems that as a society we’re drowning in diet plans and food gurus as we all grow fatter and fatter.

Thank you for your kind comments. I'm on the hunt for a publisher for my book. Being overweight is a lonely journey. Diets don't work, and people give up. I want them to know there is help and hope for a healthy life. Thanks, Dorothy Hi, Betty Field. Thank you for your kind comments. I’m on the hunt for a publisher for my book.

At the moment, I use parts of my workbook to assess new clients and identify their specific needs. I also sometimes give clients exercises from my book. I, too, hope I find a publisher because people need help, and they need it now. Thanks, Dorothy Hi, Susan Crist.

I know it's hard to find a publisher/agent, but hopefully someone reading this on Boomer will give you a lead. Good luck.
