Product Description

An inspiring new book from Janice Taylor— the ultimate weight loss cheerleader

In Our Lady of Weight Loss, Janice Taylor put a new, creative spin on weight loss, offering humor and art projects to make slimming down fun. Now, in All Is Forgiven, Move On, Taylor takes us on a journey to Sveltesville—the magical place where we can free ourselves from the food and weight madness for good.

As Taylor explains, to change our bodies we need to radically shift our attitude—get out of our ruts, forgive ourselves for past sins, and move on with a positive outlook. Here she offers 101 forgiving, fun, and fat-burning steps along the road to weight loss to help readers recharge and stay inspired when the journey gets rocky. Each step ends with a “new point of view”—a fresh perspective on weight loss—and includes advice and activities such as:

• “I Can” mental exercises to keep you confidently on track
• Fuel stops: indulgent healthy recipes to keep your body moving
• Fashion stops: for looking your glamorous best while shedding pounds
• Creativity curves: mind-bending activities to keep your perspective expanding

All Is Forgiven, Move On is not just a road map for weight loss—it is a journey of reinvention where food is not the main course. With gorgeous and uplifting four-color artwork throughout, this book is for anyone who is ready to make this time the time and reach Sveltesville once and for all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny, fun and practical, May 15, 2008

By	Erica Hanson (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: All Is Forgiven, Move On: Our Lady of Weight Loss's 101 Fat-Burning Steps on Your Journey to Sveltesville (Paperback)

I love Taylor's wit and art--I burned calories just laughing. But most of all there is practical advice, not only for losing weight and keeping it off, but for reinforcing your self-esteem, helping you uncover new points of view, and giving you ways to deal with all the ups and downs of life (besides eating that last piece of cake). I highly recommend the book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and not preachy!, May 15, 2008

By	Lilly "Makes me Smile" (Chicago) - See all my reviews

This review is from: All Is Forgiven, Move On: Our Lady of Weight Loss's 101 Fat-Burning Steps on Your Journey to Sveltesville (Paperback)

Reading this book is like sitting with a girl friend and laughing about weight loss while trying to help each other through the process. Janice encourages you to think differently, take a practical look at yourself, and urges you to make a few changes in how you see yourself. She does it in such a light and funny way, its hard to resist turning the page to see what else is there, when really, you should sit and ponder some of her ideas for a few minutes before moving on. It is truly a freeing book. I'll never look at myself the same way. I'm ready to move on and stay healthy! Watch out world!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Delicious and Delightful!, July 4, 2008

By	Omo Misha "a creative institution" (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: All Is Forgiven, Move On: Our Lady of Weight Loss's 101 Fat-Burning Steps on Your Journey to Sveltesville (Paperback)

Janice Taylor is simply delightful! She is cheerful, creative, and super-spirited about her work...and all of this comes across in her writing. There is no way to look at, listen to, or read Janice Taylor and be unhappy. No way! I am not on a personal quest for weight loss but "All is Forgiven", I have discovered, encompasses so much more - it's about renewing your outlook on life, your journey and, most of all, your esteem. It is the type of book that I like to take a little bite out of everyday - just for a boost of inspiration or a little yummy food for thought. The art work (graphics as well as Janice's artwork, present throughout the book) is an added boon. Even if I'm not reading, it's fun to just peruse the pictures, marvel at Janice's art, and enjoy how beautifully formatted the book is. If you are battling with your weight however, as many of us are, this book is a MUST READ before you even THINK about starting another diet! Everything about "All is Forgiven" will make you feel good, and better about what might have seemed an impossible journey to "Sveltsville." Sometimes you simply need a change of perspective :-)
