Lifestyle Editors/Business Editors

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 27, 2003

Author and weight loss success story Jennifer Klein celebrates ten years of service to fitness-focused residents in the Boston area. Through her business, Gain Control Not Weight (www.gaincontrolnotweight.com),

Klein helps clients achieve their weight loss goals, using lifestyle changes and a unique one-on-one, motivational approach. Though most weight loss success stories are short lived (95% regain their lost weight--and more), Klein has maintained her success for over ten years, having achieved it without gimmicks or fad diets.

"I've been there," says Klein. "I know that genuine weight loss success begins with a mind change. Most chronic dieters strive for perfection. Rigid, gimmicky diets never produce long-term success. But losing weight in a healthy, realistic way will." Klein says her coaching experience has also taught her another important lesson. "You have to learn to be kinder to yourself. Frustrated dieters are very hard on themselves. I encourage them to lighten up - in more ways than one."

Klein's desire to share her experience has led to her book, Getting There Staying There - How Looking at Weight Loss Differently Changed My Life. Klein says, "It has been so rewarding to receive letters from readers who feel that, at last, there is a weight loss book written by someone who truly knows what they are going through - before, during, and after the weight loss."
