Sigrid de Castella grew up an obese child in a family of world-famous athletes. She was the youngest Weight Watchers member ever, trying her first diet at only 8 years old - but that, along with dozens of other diets only left her fatter with feelings of failure, regret and depression.
The ridicule and shame she experienced throughout her childhood followed her into her 20’s and 30’s until she finally at over 143kg (over 315 pounds) she found the courage to change. Seeking answers, her detailed search for the truth behind her inability to lose weight led her to realise the trauma of the sexual abuse she’d experienced as a child was not the only thing keeping her fat.
Armed with this newfound knowledge she began to tear down the protective wall she’d built around herself, brick by brick, and set about changing not only her weight, but her whole life. The result was a most remarkable physical transformation – Sigrid lost over 70kg (155 pounds) – more than half her body weight - without surgery and without ‘dieting’.
In her journey Sigrid not only discovered the secret to life-long health and vitality, she discovered how to regain control over other areas of her life, re-designing and re-building it exactly the way she’d always dreamed of, from the ground up, to achieve a new sense of freedom, love and happiness.
Sigrid’s story is moving and inspirational. With a personal knowledge of how painful it is to be judged by your looks and your weight rather than your abilities, Sigrid wrote this book to share her story and her detailed research with others who may also believe, like she did, that losing weight and becoming slim naturally is just not ever going to happen.
Sigrid’s book comes with membership to her online learning portal which contains over $3,000 worth of training material to help you reach your goals. And if you’ve read this far, then maybe the time to start your journey is now!
This book is considered the most comprehensive weight loss book on the market, and a must for those wanting to know the truth about their why they are overweight or obese.
*Review:
“There’s something I wake up looking for every morning. Something that helps me see life with not just clarity, but with hope and optimism. That something is inspiration. Usually I have to look pretty hard to find something - a story, a journey, an accomplishment – as inspirational or as motivating as Sigrid’s story.
Now days with all the reality weight loss shows and the image conscious media bombarding us daily with unrealistic body images, even reality seems idealised and contrived. Triumphs seem made for TV, not won in our own homes by real people. But Sigrid’ book is about a real person, and her book is meant to help real people, like you and me.
In her book Sigrid shares with you an intimate account of her amazing success and her long-time struggle with weight loss and body image. This book is a personal insight into the determination and dedication of a real-life woman who overcame the incredible challenges and the overwhelming doubts that confront someone when taking on a goal so intimidating, so daunting as losing over 70 kilograms (154lbs) – that’s half her body weight – without dieting and without surgery.
I can honestly say that Sigrid’s is one of the most inspirational stories I have ever read. But beyond recounting her own experience with weight loss, Sigrid educates her readers with what she learned about the science of weight loss and the psychological mindset that will lead to results.
This book isn’t just about outward appearance, it’s about inner satisfaction and how to achieve the healthy ‘you’ body and soul you’ve always wanted to be. Sigrid isn’t super human, but she does make the impossible not just possible, but attainable, and gives us one more reason to believe in ourselves, to dream big, and to take control of our lives, our minds, and our bodies.”
