description: You Can A Mind, Body, Spirit Connection for Weight Loss is now available by health expert, Jacqueline Garrick. When her Army doctor told her that she was obese, she would not have imagined that three years later she would participate in an ESPN Model Universe Championship. She had left the Army five years earlier and was on reserve status when she got called in for a physical. “It was a real wake up call,” recounts Garrick. “My cholesterol was high and I was given a lecture on heart disease, the number one killer of women in America. My options were diet and exercise or years of medication.” That was over 3 years ago. Now 41, Garrick has lost 75 pounds, has her cholesterol under control, and feels better than she did in her twenties. Garrick has made a commitment to helping other women learn about healthy living in her newly release book, You Can Too. After Garrick developed her own mind-body-spirit approach to healthy living and watched as the pounds came off, she wrote, You Can Too, which is a guide meant to educate and motivate others to use healthy livings tips to reduce their weight and risks for the diseases related to obesity. It teaches readers how to lose weight through various techniques involving health risk reduction, nutrition, exercise, relaxation, coping skills, time management and even fashion. “When I shared what I was doing to live healthier and make a better mind, body, spirit connection, I found it was easier to do. I hope You Can Too will help others feel as if they have a friend encouraging them along the way,” Garrick said. Garrick is a health expert with 20 years of experience as a clinical social worker, health policy analyst and advocate. She is a US Army veteran and the former health spokesperson for a major veterans organization. She has lectured throughout the United States and Europe and has testified at Congressional hearings on health related issues. Watch her this season on the Nueva Estrella Awards on WCBS-TV as the health coach. You can order You Can Too or arrange an author appearance at www.YC2.org.
