The Weight Loss Habit

The Weight Loss Habit: The No BS, No Gimmick, (Sort Of) Easy Way to Lose Weight and Keep It Off Forever explains how to lose weight for life without relying on willpower, deprivation, or self-hatred. You can still eat the foods you love, including fast food and junk food.

It’s based on my own experience. I spent half my life obese and failed at many diets. Then I figured out the right way to lose weight: using strategies and sustainable habits to work within my nature instead of fighting it. I lost 30% of my body weight, and have kept it off for 20 years, without any struggle. You can do the same.

The book is only $6.99 on Kindle, or free on Kindle Unlimited, and $9.99 on paperback. You can buy it here or learn more about it here.

Self-Helping Yourself

Self-Helping Yourself is my blog on self-improvement made easy.

It is based on the theory that for self-help to work, it needs to make improving your life easier, not harder. A strategy that’s too difficult for you to follow doesn’t help you any.

Instead, you should look for quick wins that you will genuinely be able to implement.

You can learn more about the site here, and find the all-time best posts here.

How to Make Twitter Pleasant in 10 Minutes or Less

How to Make Twitter Pleasant in Ten Minutes or Less: A Guide to Removing Arguments, Politics, and Hate From Your Twitter Feed is exactly what it sounds like.

There’s a lot of great value to Twitter. You can learn, be entertained, and communicate with wonderful and interesting people all over the world.

But there’s also a lot of angry, hate-filled people that ruin the experience for everyone else.

My guide gives step-by-step instructions on how to hide all the hate from your feed. Including how to handle when people post a mix of content you want to see and content you don’t want to see.

It’s only $2.99, and I offer a money-back guarantee if you aren’t satisfied with the results.
