We all have habits. Some work for us — some we can live without. The Habit Changer exposes the habits you’ve learned through your family or on your own. It helps make you aware of what you’re doing now and what you might want to do differently. We provide you with a daily Challenge that gets you to look at the decisions you make in your life from a new perspective, and provide you with the means to act in a different way. By the end of 42 days, you will have changed.
If youve reached your target weight at least once before and want to stay there, the Losing Weight 2 program is for you. Its designed to help give you the skills you need to stay at your target weight forever. Each day, youll make small decisions that soon become your new habits. At the end of the program, your new awareness will help you create a lifestyle that supports choosing better foods and portions.
Habit Changer programs include Social Networking connectivity. This will allow you to post your daily progress, insights and successes on Facebook and Twitter – and allow people to follow your day to day progress on Twitter.

Sample Days from the Losing Weight 2 Program
Day 2
The Goal Is To Make It Easy
Is it really possible to rise above issues of weight and food, to where theyre not an issue for you anymore? We suggest that it is, and the reason is that skills accumulate and compound. What seems impossible as you look uphill today is simple to someone looking down the hill. There are people who make it look easy. Youre going to be one of them.
Day 9
Natural Drive
For most of human history, in fact right up until the last century, there simply wasnt enough food to go around. We evolved with a drive to eat it all. And that drive made sense: it helped us survive. Portion control, mindful eating, and home sabotage removal are key skills to learning to overcome a natural drive that isnt helping in todays environment.
Day 16
Mindful Eating
Mindful eating is one of the simplest, easiest, and yet most powerful tools you have to stay in control of what you eat. Mindful eating simply means being conscious of what youre doing and why while youre doing it. How do we know this works? Well, it turns out that higher mindfulness is correlated with lower body mass index. Meaning that if youre mindful about eating, youre likely to be thinner. Permanently.
