MAKING THE CUT

WINNING BY LOSING

To my baby sister, Lauren, for being the hope in my heart.

I'm so filled with pride. Watching you grow, blossom, and flourish

has inspired me to be a better woman.

This book, in title, is about mastering your body and your health,

but ultimately it's about mastering your life.

You are the master of your destiny. Shoot for the stars. Stop at nothing.

Don't forget the power you hold within you.

Thrive.

FOREWORD

  BY CHRISTINE DARWIN, M. D.

As an endocrinologist, I often meet people who are looking for an explanation for their fatigue or weight gain that is associated with their hormones and metabolism.

This unique book addresses hormones in an easy-to-read format, and Jillian Michaels explains, in a superb way, her own personal life experiences about how she turned her mistakes into learning opportunities for others. The book reflects not only Jillian's passion for advocating a healthy lifestyle that includes physical fitness, but also her commitment to helping readers learn essential information about hormones, diet, and health.
