Publisher's Synopsis
Working at Whole Foods had been good to Milan Ross. It not only allowed him to earn a decent living, but, also, provided his family the medical insurance his family so desperately needed. But it wasn't until Milan was offered the opportunity to attend Dr. Stoll's Immersion programme that his life totally changed. This is the story of how Milan Ross lost two hundred and twenty-five pounds of excess weight and found the passion his life had been missing. Since 2010, Dr. Scott Stoll, a medical doctor and past Olympic athlete, has conducted a week-long intensive health programme. The seven-day course provides the most up-to-date information on nutrition, achievable exercise and culinary education, as well as encouragement, coaching and vision casting. While food is the centrepiece of the programme, it is meant to be a transformational experience that forever changes the attitudes, habits and lives of those who attend the programme - all in just one week. It was to this programme that Whole Foods sent Milan Ross. THE CHANGE not only tells the personal story of Milan Ross and what he experienced during that crucial week of his life, but, also, provides the voice of Dr. Stoll, who takes the reader through the very same programme Milan experienced. Unlike weight-loss books that offer quick fixes to lose the pounds, THE CHANGE is designed to look within each individual and see what is driving him or her to eat food that is known to be unhealthy. Based on science and inner strength, which is the true seed of change, this book is meant to have its readers lose weight and be healthy not for just a month or a year but for a lifetime.
