Our simple, free and healthy weight management method -- The Mandra Method -- works best for anyone who wishes to lose 10-50 pounds. This is a non-profit effort to explain TMM, provide the tools you'll need, share others' success stories and show you how they did it.
The Mandra Method - An Overview
The Mandra Method is a simple weight control / weight management approach to losing 10-50 unwanted pounds and keeping them off. It is a general approach to diet and exercise (mostly diet) that works best for those of us who aren't terribly active or health-conscious. This website is under development but here is the short version:
There are four parts to The Mandra Method (TMM): Food, Fitness, Focus and Freedom. Food and Fitness are pretty self-explanatory (though we'll go into greater detail on them later) -- Focus and Fitness are the unique parts of TMM.
Focus is the priority that you give to your weight plan: the way in which you integrate it into your daily life without letting it dominate the day. TMM has several tools and techniques to help you tailor your plan and find/maintain the balance between weight management and the rest of your daily activities.
Freedom is the inherent flexibility that is central to TMM, you choose which parts of the plan to implement when. That means, for example, you choose which foods you will eat, which exercises you'll do, where and why you include different parts of TMM. Your choice ultimately rules the way you execute the plan. If at any point you find yourself doing something that you don't want to do, then stop - and back up, because that's not the way the Mandra Method works. Every step you take is by your choice, when you are ready, because you want it.
Each of the four areas include different steps you can take, in whatever order you prefer. In general, they are grouped into easy, medium and hard levels (though you can assign your own levels if you like).

Weight Loss: Fast vs. Slow
One thing to keep in mind about TMM - it is a general process. That doesn't mean you can't see results very quickly (within the first week or two) but they may be smaller than you prefer. TMM is not a quick loss method, it isn't going to get you down 3 sizes in 3 weeks. Not only is that unhealthy, it is too gimmicky. Even if you managed to lose that much that quickly, the chances of having it come back are nearly 100%. TMM, instead, focuses on a general eight loss, changing habits we've built up over years and that is going to (and should!) take some time.
