Hey, Dr. Phil -- let's get naked!

How long has it been since you stood naked in front of a mirror? For some thats a scary thought. For others, its more of a lifestyle where wellness is the main course. Its simple ... want to lose weight fast? Get naked! And in the process, become your own weight loss expert.

(PRWEB) November 4, 2003 --Author Lisa Bonnice reveals in her new book, Addressing the GOO-the metaphysics of weight loss, that being a nudist helped her tremendously in her weight loss efforts.
   Nudism gives us a realistic point of reference-a place to begin. Seeing real people nude helps us to shape a more sane goal for ourselves," she explains. Major media outlets insist on using false images as the perfect bodies were supposed to shoot for, while Jamie Lee Curtis exposed her real anatomy with no make-up or touch-up. Even Dr. Phil publicizes the importance of getting real-and Ms. Bonnice tells us theres no better way to experience real than a visit to your local nudist resort.
   If we can feel comfortable being nude in front of others, no matter what our body looks like, weve come a long way toward loving ourselves. And thats the first step." But if going to a nudist beach or resort isnt your cup of tea, thats okay. Nudism is only one suggestion of many in her book.
   Larry Trivieri, of Alternative Medicine Magazine and author of Health on the Edge, says, Addressing the GOO illuminates the various spiritual and emotional issues that often surround weight problems, and provides empowering tools for healing them so that weight loss becomes permanent." He recommends the book to anyone who is truly serious about losing weight.
   Lisa Bonnice has worked as a stand up comic, a TV reporter, and as an award-winning affiliate writer for MSNBC.com. She writes a monthly advice column for Draglais Magazine and currently lives at a nudist resort in Florida.
