The second book in the Calendar series by Jackie Clark introduces us to Brooke, a free-spirit who hates the thought of being tied down to city life.

And will her desire for adventure, and more importantly, home, be fulfilled?

Jackie Clark: Losing weight is easy with a decent diet. Controlling weight afterward is the problem, but not so for the author of this book, who discovered a way to understand precisely what she had to do to take complete control of her eating habits and continue to enjoy drinking wine for pleasure. She chose wine; however, it could have been chocolate, cakes, or any treat. A way that would free her from the health-hazardous weight she had carried for years. In this book, she shares her understanding of what it took to understand her problem and do something about it. She no longer goes from fat to almost thin. She is now permanently slim and is the size she wants to be, maintaining her size by following a few simple steps. Her weight has been stable for several years following this eating plan. In the pages of this book, she details every ounce of food she ate over six months. The weeks she gained weight are all included in this honest story. In devising her method of taking control, to free herself from closets of clothes that did not fit walks she found painful, and most of all, her love of swimming was limited due to lack of fitness. She consciously decided not to starve herself or give up her wine, chocolate, or eating-out pleasures. Throughout, she continued to enjoy her pleasures, albeit sensibly. She discovered the points at which she lost or gained weight, adjusting her food intake to suit. Read her story and find how anyone can take control of their eating habits and continue to enjoy the pleasures of food, including wine, with meals. Unlock the magic of the knowledge inside you, just as Jackie did, to improve your life. Reducing weight is a proven method of preventing many illnesses and conditions that can ruin the quality of life. Imagine walking, swimming, running, or just looking great in clothes you chose for looks and not merely because they fit. By reading this story, improve your health by taking control of your weight and size.
