There is nothing new at all about what I did. I do not claim to have new or proprietary information. In fact as I've met with friends who seek me out to learn more, that's what I start my answers with. "I have bad news for you, it's mostly what you already know." Again, I said said to the poster below, I continue to be fascinated with how others interpret words in their own filter. I never claimed anything I did was "proprietary or secret"--that assumption came from you. That said, I learned things that appear, at least in early conversations to be useful to others, or new to them. What is perhaps driving me is how many people are asking for more information. Perhaps because I was so overweight for so long people see it differently. I am surprised to find people telling me I inspire them. If I can help others figure some part of this out, or it unlocks just one good habit for them, it'll be worth it. I'm definitely not looking to get rich or sell anything. I see this as my gift to my friends or anyone else who cares to read it. I see this as a gift to myself, a celebration of my own accomplishment, a record and a motivation, and the gift of not having to have 20 more 2 hour conversations about it. :)
