After a diet done the same old way, chances are that you have already gained back all the pounds you lost. Too often, dieting just doesn't work. Now, something is working: Not a diet but a revolutionary new concept of weight control based on behaviour therapy. It doesn't focus on fat at all, but on you. It holds that eating too much is behaviour that you have learned. People eat simply because something tastes or smells good, or because the clock says it's mealtime. These are all learned behaviours and a dozen crash diets won't help to unlearn them. Only newly developing practical techniques to change the behaviour will help and that is where behaviour therapy comes in. Applied to weight control for only a half-dozen years, such therapy has already proved its worth in carefully controlled studies with upward of 500 people. So, don't wait any more.
