"I just wanted you to know I have been doing Oxycise for 8 weeks now and like so many of your other success stories I am very impressed. I have done every diet, pill, machine imaginable and like all the others put every pound back on originally plus the 10 more. I am still 30 pounds overweight but my body is so toned and my shape is finally coming back. I am losing slowly but my metabolism has gone up dramatically." ~ Janet

*A* Winning at Losing: Strategies for Permanent Weight Loss
*************************************************************************
Strategy #1 -- Think long-term. Instead of trying to completely overhaul your body in a week or a month, realize that achieving--and maintaining--fitness is a lifelong commitment. Avoid unhealthy "diets" that drastically slash calorie intake and promise instant weight loss. Respect your body and treat it like the irreplaceable possession that it is. Weight lost through self-abuse and drastic measures will always come back later with a vengeance. For permanent results, give your body what it needs most: oxygen, water, exercise, and healthy foods. Aim for an average weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week -- it's much more likely to stay off that way. Remember, you're in this "for the long haul."

Strategy #2 -- Be honest.... are you ready to commit to losing weight for good? And are you doing it for yourself -or are you being pressured by others? This has to be something that YOU want. So decide what changes you want to make. Then create your plan for success and go for it!

Strategy #3 -- Take "baby steps." Try to do a little better each day than you have in the past at exercise, eating healthier ... whatever you decide to change. Take one step at a time. Go at YOUR pace. Don't think in terms of "never eating sweets or desserts again". If you really want a cookie, eat it and enjoy it. Then be responsible and honest about it... but "no guilt allowed." If you have 100 pounds to lose, make a short-term goal to lose just 10 pounds. Making small changes each day will lead to dramatic results in time.

Strategy #4 -- Be determined. Don't give up. Stick with your plan even if you don't see visible changes happening right away. Focus on how you feel when you exercise and how good it feels to follow through on your commitments to yourself! If you get side-tracked, just pick back up where you left off
and move on. Learn from your mistakes and keep your sights set on your goal.

Strategy #5 -- Last but not least, choose an exercise program that you enjoy enough to KEEP doing. Or alternate between several different activities that you enjoy.

Oxycise! is a complete fitness program for losing excess fat, toning your muscles, improving flexibility and revving up your metabolic rate. It's a non-impact aerobic workout that gives your body lots of extra oxygen. And you can do Oxycise! rain or shine, right at home or "on the road", without special equipment! Best of all, Oxycise! can be done by people of all ages and fitness levels. But you don't have to take our word for it; Our Success Stories speak for themselves! Here are just a few....

"I credit Oxycising for my ability to breathe well - I've been Oxycising for 1-1/2 years and I know this has improved my breathing and oxygen intake - I also lost another size in clothing - I'm 55 years old, 5' 6", weigh 122# and am in a size 8. Happy?? I should say so. I'm in the best shape I've ever been in." ~ Barb

"I'm a former fitness instructor (12 years) who quit 2 years ago and gained 12-15 pounds of fat. Oxycise! appealed to me because I knew you needed oxygen to burn fat. Since I couldn't find the time to do the traditional workouts, I decided to give Oxycise! a try. I have to say I'm in better shape now than I was when I was teaching 9 classes a week. Incredible!!" ~ Susan

"I'm in the best shape (mentally and physically) I've ever been--even my doctor is impressed. For the rest of my life I will neither obsess about exercise and fitness nor worry about going back to the way I was. I'm happy to say I've made a lifelong commitment to this program. Oxycise! has made all the difference." ~ Lisa

*** ANGIE LEE ***

"I have also found that doing Oxycise! everyday is challenging and yet we all know how wonderfully it works. I am 20 years old and not terribly overweight, but as of labor day I was 20 lbs over my maximum ideal weight. I started doing Oxycise! again and one week later I had lost 7 lbs. This time I have found something that has helped me a lot. I like to do Oxycise! first thing in the morning, but let's face it, who wants to get out of bed in the morning even if it is only 15 min. early. After work it seems like once I have any free time (after dinner, cleaning up, etc.) all I want to do is watch TV. So I have started doing Oxycise! while I watch TV. I use the list that came with the kit to make sure I am not missing any steps and I count my breaths on my fingers so that I make sure to do all of them. Now I have no excuse for missing even if my husband (or I) want to finish the late night movie or catch the ten o'clock news. It is nice to see such great changes so fast."

Thanks and God Bless

"Dear Jill and Julie,
I want to take a few minutes to write and thank you both for such a wonderful, life-changing program! I have been faithfully doing Oxycise! last January, 2002. My 40th birthday was coming up and I really felt fat and out of sync. I exercise five times a week and try to put as much gusto into it as possible. Along with doing O!, I have focused on eating fresh fruits and veggies and fish. Not an easy thing to do since I love pizza!

"Today it all paid off with my yearly annual physical. I had lost 17 pounds since this past June plus I was down 23 inches! What really was earth-shattering news was my blood pressure reading. Last year it was 132/76. Not real bad, but not great. Today it was a shocking 104/68! Even when I was in my 20's, I never had a reading like that! The physician and her assistant couldn't believe that all of this was accomplished with only 15 minutes per day! I gladly shared your website address and raved about your program. Hopefully they will give it a try as well."

Thank you so much!
Ann Robbins,
