the most incredible family on planet Earth

CONTENTS

B ETWEEN MY aesthetic surgery practice in Santa Barbara and my post as clinical assistant professor and codirector of the facial plastic surgery fellowship at UCLA, I have seen and observed (often with a cynical eye) most approaches to peoples quest to look and feel younger. I have, for instance, participated in the development of minimally invasive and nonablative lasers, and I was a pioneer in many noninvasive and endoscopic techniques for facial rejuvenation.

No longer satisfied with the outward illusion of the fountain of youth, more and more of my patients have been seeking a total approach to their health as they head toward maturity. Jay Williams first came to my attention over a decade ago when her revolutionary ideas and techniques began to capture the awareness of many of my aesthetic surgery patients. Rapidly my medical vocabulary started to include terms like H.E.A.R.T. training, Definition Diet, and hormone-friendly environment. It didnt take me long to realize that my own specialized work in antiaging, cell rejuvenation, and minimally invasive cosmetic approaches was destined to marry with Jays extraordinary and intuitive approach to the total health and wellbeing of the mind-body complex.

Jays selfless commitment to helping others achieve near freedom from the degenerative effects of time has resulted in a tremendous, worldwide following of devotees. I am constantly amazed at the number of people who attribute their success to this extraordinary human being. Perhaps what I admire about Jay the most is that she is her own laboratory. Nothing that she expounds or prescribes has not been thoroughly tested on herself. Clearly the fitness and antiaging buzzword of the new millennium is Jay.

A LOHA from the beautiful Kona coast of the Big Island of Hawaii. As an exercise physiologist and spa health consultant who has prescribed diet, exercise, and personal health programs for tens of thousands of men, women, and families, I want to tell you about an exciting program that gives you the benefits of antiaging, permanent weight loss, and total fitness and that starts to work immediately.

No matter what your age or health status, I know that you can become different in just 24 hourswith increased energy, stamina, and libido, elevated mood, more fat-burning enzymes, and youthful vitality. Although a 24-hour turnaround may sound unbelievable, I have the professional background, experience, and facts to convince you that it is true and that it can happen to you. Let me explain.

My clients come here because they have the utmost confidence in me and the 24-Hour Turnaround. Through the years they have seen my program work for friends or colleagues. Or theyve heard about it through one of my regular corporate seminars, and they want to know if it can help them improve their own bodies and personal health. At the resort, I work one-on-one with clients, counsel couples, and help entire families to upgrade their nutrition, implement fitness programs, and make lifestyle changes, even helping them find alternative medicine practitioners. Often they fly me to their homes to work with their chefs and to introduce healthy lifestyle changes within their families busy schedules. In most cases, my clients take my advice seriously and follow my instructions with diligence. The majority of my clients are not interested in the clinical research or the journal articles that back up the various recommendations I make. They usually say, Please, just tell me what works.

Because I have thousands of people who rely on me for up-to-date, cutting-edge information about antiaging, weight loss, and health, my practice has always been somewhat ahead of the times, particularly when it comes to using clinical studies in the program. It often takes years for medical research to be approved and make it through all the bureaucratic red tape. By the time you read about a breakthrough study in the media, it could have been in a testing lab or clinical trial for five or ten years or longer. I find its hard to be patient and wait on published journal results when you know that the outcome could help someone lose weight, get fit, or prevent a disease right now.

Throughout the book I have included the scientific studies and the supporting references that apply to my recommendations. But sometimes the life-changing results clients achieve come from the specialized, time-tested diet and fitness techniques I have developed through years of helping men and women to achieve lean, healthy, and youthful bodies. Some of these strategies are based on intuition, faith, and a commonsense philosophy of good health. These are all life practices I strongly believe in. Whether grounded in conventional science or common sense, the bottom line is that this program works time and again for the clients who come to my office, and it will work for you.

I am writing this book as if you are my client, sitting across from me in my office or on the telephone during a phone consultation. No, I cant see your face, gauge your reaction, or track your progress. But I am going to tell you the same things I tell my clients, and I know you will have the same success if you stay focused and motivated. You see, for the past twenty-six years, I have had a passion for knowledge about the human body. Ive read literally hundreds of medical journal studies searching for the keys to optimal health and longevity. Ive interviewed renowned researchers, prominent doctors, alternative medicine practitioners, and other health-care professionals who are experts in their fields.

Ive also talked with people like you who are desperate for answers to their diet and health questions and are suffering needlessly because of inaccurate information. My personal and professional quest motivates me to go beyond what conventional medical studies confirm as truth and seek known and little-known breakthroughs to help people get lean, feel younger and more energetic, and virtually halt or even reverse the degenerative aging process.

Until I see you in Hawaii, I want to do the next best thing to consulting with you in person. Ill give you eight Total Life Changes (what I call TLCs) that are vital to staying lean, looking and feeling young, and living an active lifefor the rest of your life.

These following eight TLCs will help transform your body, mind, and emotions as you make simple changes in the way you eat, think, sleep, and exercise each day.

: Master your mood and motivation. You will prepare for your 24-Hour Turnaround by gaining new insight into how motivation, mood, and belief are essential components in achieving optimal health. Youll call upon these fundamentals to keep you focused even when you dont feel like staying with the program. I have witnessed clients who were chronically tired or even depressed and had a dramatic turnaround in energy, mood, and productivity in just hours by using the motivational strategies in TLC 1.

When we have the right motivational tools, we can immediately change our lifestyle, including poor eating habits, sleep problems, sedentary behavior, and how we cope with stress. The specific motivational steps offered here will give you the tools to feel healthier, change a negative thought process, and achieve weight loss and optimal fitness. In doing so, your relationships, career, and other aspects of your life that depend on positive communication will greatly benefit starting today!
