Eric Cohen

Lost: 80 Lbs.

I am Eric Cohen a 45 year old project manager. I heard about the program from a friend and joined in 2003. Over 8 months I was surprised as I lost 80 pounds and have been maintaining this weight for 5 years. I feel healthier and I can take part in more activities with my two young daughters. I know they enjoy the new me as well.

Lost: 85 Lbs.

As a young child I was very thin. So thin, in fact, that my parents gave me appetite stimulation medication. I suppose the medication worked really, really well! From around the age of eight, I began to have a weight problem. I went from a chubby kid, to a heavy teen, to an overweight young adult, and was embarrassed at what I had become by the time I heard about Harvey Brooker's men's weight loss program. For many years, I had avoided my "annual" medical check-up because I did not want to be told that I needed to lose some weight. I knew that I should lose weight. I knew that my eating was out of control. Trying to lose weight was my life's theme until I was in my mid-thirties. Then I gave up. I decided that I should "accept myself for who I am." Being overweight had become who I was. Why fight it? I decided to buy larger clothes and try to "enjoy" life.

By the time I turned 40, I was well past 200 pounds. I was not enjoying life. In fact, there was a small voice in my head that kept telling me that I was killing myself. By the summer of 2006, I took the proverbial look at myself in the mirror and decided that if I wanted to see my children grow up I needed to do something. That's when I heard about Harvey Brooker's program. I went to a meeting and knew right away that this was the program for me. The program made sense. I spent 38 years of my life proving that I could not control my eating. "Treating myself" with just a bit of ice cream always led to overindulgence. Chicken wings, fries, and pizza had brought me to where I was. Dieting never worked for me.

The Harvey Brooker program was different. It was not a diet. It was a program that, once mastered, could continue throughout my life. It has now been 3 years since starting the program and I am proud to say that I am in total control of my weight. How has it changed my life? I feel like I am going to live for a very long time. I feel like I am a positive role model to my children.
