• And NO — You do not have to follow a specific menu plan.
• And NO — You do not have to count calories.
• And NO — You do not have to buy supplements.
• And NO — You do not have to buy food from me.
• And NO — You do not have to give up any specific foods...

Simple!

You have to show up!

When you show up I will help you determine specifically what lifestyle changes YOU are WILLING to make
to include more healthful eating and living in your life.

I'll keep you motivated and on track with a weekly accountability check in.

As always, with the Reasonable Diet, you get all the tools, accountability, motivation and information to find
simple methods to make the lifestyle changes that will result in permanent weight loss.

	Will I teach you to count calories in the easiest way possible? Absolutely! Calorie counting really works for some people and there is one big secret that will make it super simple for you to count calories, if that is the best choice for you.
	Will you be inspired by my other clients who are "clean" eating and finding that they have totally eliminated their sugar cravings? Absolutely! Clean eating means at least one week of unlimited fruits, vegetable, lean protein and a serving of brown rice every day. Then after the first week you start adding other foods back in. I'll give you the menu/recipes and 3 tricks that will make clean eating a breeze.
	Will you learn the seven techniques of mindful eating... so you don't waste your calories on food that you don't even really care about, or eat without even tasting? Absolutely! You will also learn how to use "Mindful Eating" and "Devising Your Own Diet" as two other ways of taking off the weight.
	Will you be given the forms each week to Devise Your Own Diet -- so that you have enough structure to get some momentum on your weight loss journey? Absolutely!

Each week I'll help you determine which strategies will be the most effective weight loss method for your lifestyle, schedule and family life.

I am able to make this MONEY BACK GUARANTEE because I'm a very successful diet coach. I have hundreds and hundreds of successful clients and proof that my approach works.

You know why Reasonable Dieting works? Because I help you learn to customize a plan that is just right for you. I teach you several tried and true methods of dieting and then help you customize a plan that will work for your taste, your lifestyle, your schedule, and with your family situation.

Accountability and Support

I provide personal support and my members support each other too. So yes, you will have to show up so that you can give and get the support that you need to lose the weight.  You have to participate each week to get the money back guarantee. (I do give you two free passes if you have a schedule conflict). 

I hold you accountable so that the diet motivation that you have on Monday doesn't "slip your mind" by Friday!

WHO CAN JOIN ?
You can ...

	...if you are a woman.
	...if you have weight to lose to get to your appropriate BMI.
	...if you are willing to attend the in-person group or teleconference calls at least 10 times during the 12 weeks.
	...if you act quickly - Only 50 memberships currently available with the money back guarantee. You must act today to reserve your spot.
	...if you are willing to sign a contract with me stating that it is your intention and desire to lose X number of pounds in 12 weeks. (X = maximum of 20)

You will get the accountability and motivation that you need to get and stay on track. In addition, this is the time each week when you determine the most realistic personal plan for your weekly weight loss.

TOTAL VALUE  of BIG THREE -- $701

THAT IS THE VALUE -- BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT YOU WILL PAY!

The current price (only for the first 50 members) is $447

(Or three monthly payments of $157)

There is no risk with this plan!

I know that there are dozens/ hundreds/ thousands of "easy" weight loss diets out there, and I know it can be a risky decision to spend money on yourself. You will get a printed Money Back Guarantee.  After you enroll if you are not satisfied with the written guarantee, simply call or email me and I will reverse the charge to your credit card.

With Reasonable Diet -- I'll clear the clutter about which type of diet to follow and lead you to the simplest way for YOU to achieve weight loss. I know it is easy  to get confused by all the hype and I'm not claiming this will be easy every step of the way. After all, changing your diet has its challenges. Changing it for permanent weight loss, without any drugs, surgery, or crazy food plans is even more challenging. And the truth is that there are many diets that will work IF YOU ACTUALLY FOLLOW THEM.

But the truth is that none of them work if you can't get mentally geared up to do them and stick with them. I'll help you get your mind and heart into the picture. That is the true recipe for my success with my Reasonable Diet Clients:  I connect with them to make sure that their head and heart are in it.

WHO SHOULD NOT JOIN:

	Please do not join if you are doing it "for someone else." This has got to be about your desire to have integrity with regard to your food, diet and weight. This has got to be about your own peace of mind.
	Please don't join if you are not serious about wanting to lose the weight. (It's okay if you only want to lose 10 pounds for example, but make sure you tell me that up front.)
	If you have been hospitalized or treated for an eating disorder, please contact me before joining the program.
	Please don't join if you have a completely closed mind about trying anything new. The Reasonable Diet program is about change, exploration and redefining ourselves when it comes to our diet and lifestyle. You will always have choices within the program, but I want you to have an open mind as to what might work for you. You must be willing to consider suggestions.

 

What is required for your part of the guarantee?

REQUIRED ACTION:

1.      Show up for group (in person or teleconference) at least 10 of the 12 weeks.

2.      Do the required reading and listening. (About 1/2 - 1 1/2 hours per week.)

3.      Make two posts to the members’ forum once a week. (Easy computer program that I'll teach you.)

4.      Write down the food you eat every day in a journal.

If you have participated by doing these required four items you will have lost 20 pounds or you will get your money refunded to you based on your weight loss at the end of twelve weeks. If you lose a percentage of 20 pounds, you will get the difference in the percentage refunded. For example if you lose 10 of the 20 pounds, you will get 50% of your money refunded. (You will get to keep 100% of all program material!)

I KNOW that if you do these things
you will lose the 20 pounds,
because I am confident in my ability to get and keep you motivated.

That is the guarantee.

I don't want to confuse you with too much information... but for those of you who are information junkies and want even more than the program basics and the bonus' that are already included, I will also include the following extra amazing values:

AUXILLARY BONUSES

Daily motivational email. Some women like to get a daily dose of motivation delivered to their inbox. I've got that covered from my "Project You" program ($129 - value) but will include it FREE -- IF you are one of the FIRST 50 to sign up.

 20-in-12 - Printed Program Binder Set.

This extra is a very big deal --
(My cost alone is $100+ dollars!)

Since I work with clients around the world -- I've started to make all of my program material available on the internet. Everything is very easily able to be downloaded. That would be great if everyone would do it. But they don't. ·         They run out of time. (Too busy) ·          Or with the articles they think they'll just read them online to save ink, but then they don't get back to them. ·         With the printed forms, they print a single one and think they'll copy the rest at the office, but then the form gets lost in the shuffle. Having everything organized so you can pick it up and easily make your plan is essential to your 20-in-12 success. I can't take a chance that you won't succeed (since I'm offering you the money back guarantee) and so ... I'm going to do all the organization for you. I'm going send you a 12 in 20 - Printed Program Binder Set with every resource and form printed out for you and packaged in two spiffy binders.  I'll even include the shipping free of charge if you live in the continental US. This is a $251 Value! Plus another $25 or $28 for the shipping & handling (depending on where you live.) But I need you to join today, so that I can get the binders/printing ordered and get it to you on time. That's not all! While I'm shipping the binders (and sending you everything you could possibly need to succeed in this endeavor), I'm also going to kick in another huge bonus -- my 4 CD Set - Six Minutes of Sanity Seven Days a Week. These are not just downloadable MP3s (which sell for $39). These are the ACTUAL CDs which sell for $21 each! = $84. You'll be able to pop one into your CD player and listen to a motivational gem every morning when you get up or on your way to work.

Please note -- These EXTRA Goodies are yours to keep --
even if you get the money back for the program!

That's how confident I am that you are going to lose the TWENTY pounds!

Elizabeth R. — Lost 54 pounds
Sandra, I finally got tired of thinking about losing weight and decided to give Reasonable Diet a try. I lost over 50 pounds! Before I felt unhealthy, really actually unlovable and I didn't want to be seen. I felt much older. Now I have so much more energy. I'm healthier and happier. Sandra has taught me to stay on the path, I'll always be grateful to her for that. — Elizabeth R.

 The offer of four Free CDs will "go away" after the first 50 people have signed up. Here are just a few of the hundreds of unsolicited rave comments I've received via email on my audio products.

Sandra, ... I discovered your podcasts a few weeks ago, and appreciate how open and honest these women are.  By sharing their experiences, ups and downs, I really feel connected and hopeful that I can stick to it, too. Thanks for making these podcasts available - they are truly invaluable. Annette?@aol.com

Sandra, I just found out about your audio recordings and I love them. You are so inspirational. Thank you for providing this helpful information. Colleen?@yahoo.com

Sandra, I love your programs and have been listening faithfully for over a year. I live in Washington, DC and I use your podcasts as a 'treat' for when I exercise. I don’t allow myself to listen to them any other time of the day, so it's something that really helps motivate me to exercise. I really appreciate your approach to weight loss. It’s both positive and realistic, exactly what I need. Thank you! cpeters@solutions.com

Sandra, ...Once again thanks for the work you do, you are the voice of sense and reason who helps to keep the gremlins in my mind that tell me I'm a bad person because I put on 1lb at bay, leaving me free to be happy and just eat right and go to the gym because that's what I CHOOSE to do. Abigail B, Somerset England

Sandra, I live in South Africa and have been listening to your recordings for about a month now and they are the most inspirational most sensible support sources I have ever been part of.... Angela angela.m?@?ccenture.com

Dear Ms. Ahten, I have been listening to your recordings since last week when I discovered them when I was looking for some new motivation. In one short week, I have been able to rethink where I am and where I am going (thanks in great part to your voice and the voices of your clients in my ears). Your reasonable approach is exactly what I need right now! . Because of your podcasts, I have been able to focus on what I am doing and what I am willing to do, and I am not beating myself up for not "filling in the boxes" and counting every calorie (I am not there for now). I have started journaling food choices and emotional connections and I feel that I am looking in the direction I wish to go. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Laura F. lilame?@aol.com

Dear Sandra, I am simply amazed and in awe of what you do, especially what you have to say. Your kind spirit, understanding of the struggles we face with weight loss and your courageous story of how you got where you are today. WOW! Thank you for being a wonderful, wise resource. Keep up the great work. I truly thank you, Cindy Lufkin, Texas

I could literally include hundreds of more testimonials. But I think you get the picture. Reasonable Dieting works...and all of these audio resources that they are raving about are included in this 20-in-12 program.

There is absolutely no risk.

Please join me today.
Come November you will be so glad that you did!

This is my last program offering for the year, so If you want to lose weight in a Reasonable way in 2010 this is your chance. With the money back offer, I challenge you to think of one reason in the world that you should not jump right in today, while the bonus offers are still available.
