To all my online clients at JorgeCruise.com who sent me thousands of e-mails requesting that I write this book to help them get that special advantage to sculpt thinner thighs and hips faster. Enjoy!

First, I want to thank my 3 million (and growing) weight-loss clients at JorgeCruise.com whom I have had the privilege of coaching. Without all their feedback, insights, and support, the Jorge Cruise weight-control brand would not be the success it is today.

I also must thank Oprah Winfrey, the lady who launched my career. She invited me to be a guest on her show in Chicago and introduced me to two people whose lives had changed because of my Web site. I will never forget that day. From that moment on, I knew that the Internet was a powerful resource that could change peoples lives and bodies.

Heather, my wife, whom I love so much. Thanks again, baby doll, for being my source of love, balance, relaxation, and fun. You have shown me what life is really about and how to enjoy it all. I love you with all my heart and soul.

To my mom, Gloria, who is my shining star in the sky that looks over me. To my dad, Mel, for being the man who inspired me by his original weight loss. To my sister, Marta, who shed over 30 pounds and is now helping the world with her books on dating, relationships, and love. To my grandma Maria for showing me that at 92 years young resistance training can also add years to your life! To my grandpa George and grandma Dorothy who both passed away from being overweight... I promise to never forget the lesson from your passing about how essential it is to master you health before its too late. I love you all.

To Phyllis McClanahan, my personal assistant and right hand. Thank you for keeping me focused and organized. You are priceless! Lisa Sharkey, my friend who has a heart of gold. To Bruce Barlean and the whole Barleans family. Thanks for everything. To my buddy and great friend, Jade Beutler, and his family. To Ben Gage and his extraordinary negotiation and legal skills. To all my friends at Guthy-Renker, HarperCollins, and Hay House. Thank you all so much!

A special big thank-you to Rodale Books for all their initial support with my 8 Minute books. In particular, Alisa Bauman for helping me convey my message, Kelly Schmidt for managing all the project details, Chris Rhoads for his extraordinary design skills, Jackie Dornblaser for getting me where I needed to go, and Stephanie Tade, who truly made this project possible. Also a special thank-you to Dana Bacher, Marc Jaffe, Steve Murphy, and the Rodale family.

To my stellar team at Prevention magazine for helping me get my weight-loss column out to 11 million readers each month. Rosemary Ellis, Michele Stanten, and Robin Shallow, you are all the best!

Jan Miller, my literary agent, and Michael Broussard, her right arm, thank you for connecting me to the top people in the literary world. Jan, you are a gem. I look forward to a lifetime of great weight-loss books with you.

And finally, to my extraordinary and magical public relations team: Cindy Ratzlaff and Cathy Gruhn at Rodale, Mary Lengle at Spotted Dog Communications, and Arielle Ford and Katherine Kellmeyer at the Ford Group in San Diego. Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart for your hard work, time, and efforts! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

With Jorges plan I have lost 105 pounds and more than 12 inches off my thighs. My 49th birthday present to myself was a professional picture taken of my granddaughter and me!
