A motivational guide to weight loss describes the proven visualization method, in which readers are encouraged to use their subconscious minds to reach their goal weights. Reprint. Debbie Johnson's troubles with weight control began when a favorite pair of pants shrunk in the dryer. She assumed she was getting fat and started a diet. Over the next 10 years she added 40 pounds, mostly because, she says, she obsessed over the idea of being overweight. When she started using visualization exercises, the same ones that had brought her success in business, the extra weight melted away. Johnson's method won't work for everyone, but the worst that can happen if you try it is that you'll be out the price of the book, which still makes the experience cheaper than a lot of weight-loss programs.

"Once upon a time in a faraway land lived a beautiful princess who was burdened with the seventy-five pounds of the most obstinate, tenacious, malicious extra weight ever. She had tried it all. Potions and spells didn't work, the secret eating plan from the old woman in Dietville failed, and the Wizard from the town of Willpower only made her feel like a failure. Depressed and still overweight, she had nearly lost hope when she met Sebastian.. Sebastian , a pointy-eared elf, told the overweight princess that the answer would not be found in potions or diets or exercise alone. He knew the answer that she had been searching for, and he was willing to teach her, but only on one condition -- she must pass along this valuable knowledge to others who were also searching for the truth. The princess agreed and sat down on a large rock to listen to the little elf, and this is what he told her....."
