Listen to James Krieger's overview of the Weight Loss Coach Certification Course.

"I am not normally a science geek, but I really liked the scientific piece of the class. Its nice to finally understand what has been making me fat all these years. Yes I would and already have recommended this course. I think everyone needs to understand that being overweight is not always about whether or not someone ate the whole pizza. I liked that the instructor was knowledgeable in the topic"- Michelle M Guajardo 1/29/2011

"I liked the opportunity to brain storm the road blocks most people have and then come up with questions that we as coaches my ask them to help them over come their roadblock! That was VERY helpful to me! I would STRONGLY recommend this course!!! The information that was covered was SO enlightening! I feel I learned a lot, not just the information but I learned a lot why I've had some of the weight issues I've had in life. James was a WONDERFUL master coach!!! I LOVED, being able to get to know the other class members and doing the hands on coaching! I think it is one of my favorite courses!!! Great job James!!! Thank you SO much for being SO kind in working with me before the class even started so that I could have the opportunity to take your course! You are the best!"- Kellie Hubler 3/13/2001

"I LOVED the solid scientific information. I would recommend this course to anyone considering becoming a weight loss coach. James is an excellent instructor who made complex ideas easy. I also loved that there was a lot of interaction amongst the participants, including practice coaching using our newfound knowledge."- Elizabeth Dawn Clark 2/27/2011

"The depth of scientific information provided a strong basis for the coaching approach we have worked on. James' openness to suggestions and ideas from participants enabled us to learn from each other as much as we learned from the course curriculum. I had the benefit of the wisdom of four other people, James included. I would absolutely recommend this course. It is well grounded in solid science, the approach is pragmatic and clear for everyone to understand. I agree with a classmate who said that even if I never do any weight loss coaching--although I definitely will--it will help me in my own life. Thank you Berry and Barbara for creating FWI and sharing such wonderful energy with the world! I'm so proud and honored to be a part of this."- Sheila MacLeod 2/27/2011
