Maximized Living Makeover
Beginner Challenge

Our whole lives we have been told we cannot do things. If you remember when you were a child, you were probably told no more than you were told yes. If you have children of your own, you know they ask, ask, ask. Children seem to have this unquenchable desire to explore everything and try anything. When I was young, I thought I could fly. I tried it once out of my tree fort. Boy, did that hurt!

My point is that children have no fear. They believe they can become anything, and when they get hurt, they try again. I'm not sure if it is the influence of adults that shuts down this willingness to be adventurous or bad results of children's experiments. Either way, the bottom line is that as adults we need to be as adventurous and willing to try new things as we were when we were children.

If you recognize that you are overworked, overstressed, and out of shape, start with the Beginner Makeover Challenge for the next thirty days. Dr. Greg Loman's easy-to-follow and engaging entries give you bite-sized action steps to start enjoying the benefits of Maximized Living advantages from day one!

 TESTIMONIALS
"This has not only changed my life, it has changed the habits and attitudes for my family.  This has impacted every facet of our lives.  It is truly an example of the old saying, “Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.  'Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.'"
~ Jeff A.

"I would highly recommend this to anyone who is seeking to change their life.  This is a great opportunity to learn and grow and discover the best life has to offer."
~ Judy C.

"I don’t even know if I can completely express just how much this has changed my life!  I have a completely different view of food now.  I don’t think of it simply as something to eat because I am hungry.  I have a new mindset about how food fuels my body and how to combine different foods in a way that will fuel my body to keep up with the demands of my life.  As you know, our whole family is on board and the kids are loving it!  They are sleeping better and are less cranky without the processed foods and so much sugar."
~ Lisa A.  

"Most importantly, I have made conscious mental changes that have improved my family life.  I try not to take my wonderful husband and daughter for granted ~ I appreciate the time I am able to spend with them. I also have realized what a huge role model I am for my 6 year old daughter and that the choices I make impact not only myself, but most importantly, the changes will impact my daughter’s choices.  I now think before I act and just try to be a better person, knowing that I will get rewarded in a million ways."
~ Lisa S. 

"This has changed my life by changing the way I view myself and the world around me.  The simple phrase “Honor God with your body” has made me realize that by not taking care of my body with exercise, food by God and peace by God, I am in fact dishonoring God."
~ Roxanne P. 
 
"For me, the journey began as one for weight loss but ended with one that has helped me to increase my relationship with God and understand his plan for me.  I learned how the body uses nutrients but more importantly, I learned how to nourish my soul. I am more aware of my value in my life.  This process is ongoing for me ~ but this has helped me to realize that I am not alone.  Overall, this has helped me gain confidence and the realization that I am valued in God’s eyes and that he truly loves me."
~ Seema C. 
 
"I feel like I’ve finally gotten a road map to a better life.  I’ve been losing weight and feeling better, more alive.  I’ve also found myself feeling less stressed out with the daily grind.  I’ve been able to take charge of situations which would normally send me into a panic."
~ Steve H. 
 
"This program has helped me to understand what is important in life ~ not to be stressed out about trying to keep up with everything and everyone."
~ Trudie A. 
 
"I feel I now have a reliable plan to live a healthy lifestyle for myself and my family.  I get to make healthy choices ~ or not, and it all falls into the plan.  This has given me a lot of freedom ~ especially to tell people I’m not on a diet, I’m just making healthier choices, which feels great.  This is the first time that God is my partner in what I am doing with my body and my life.  I now have the habit of turning to God for strength instead of trying to do it by myself."
~
Wendy W.

"It helped to realize I’m not only struggling with weight issues, time management, etc, others are as well!  It helped me realize just a little improvement is better than not attempting to make improvements at all!"
~ Mary S.
