Book Testimonials

“Roslyn's book helps individuals gain insight and knowledge in regard to moving forward on a path to better health.  The A List is a useful, easy to read guide that enables the reader to achieve his/her desired goals.   Roslyn's personal stories of her struggles and triumphs with respect to her own health inspired me to follow her principles for healthy eating and positive living.  I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in improving their overall health and well-being.”, Jennie P.

"I am almost done reading through your book and I have to say it is EXCELLENT!  I am going through each section at a slow pace to put the info into practice. I have already started losing weight… you raise a lot of great points that I hadn’t even thought of or read about in other books/programs. Particularly the “all or nothing attitude.”   Uh yeah.   That’s me.. that WAS me!", Su T.

"Dear Roslyn: I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your empowering book The A List.  I just finished reading it and I finally get it... I have tried Weight Watchers, Tops, Herbal Magic, Herbalife, bought every diet book available, including Dr. Phil's and I have lost weight only to regain it back and more. I started with only about 10lbs to lose, and as the years go by it has now reached 20+ lbs.  I have always been a very healthy eater cooking nutritious meals for my family, also we have been an active family.  So I guess I was in denial of why I was getting fatter over the years.  It wasn't until I read your book that it finally hit me that I wasn't taking care of myself and my needs...

Like I say I am excited but somewhat skeptical because of here we go again setting myself up for failure!  However, the other day I was in a situation where I was angry and I said to myself that I was "mad" (I acknowledged out loud that I was mad)  and I wasn't going to eat because of it. IT WORKED.  I never would have acknowledged my feelings out loud before.  It was amazing.  I know that that was one day but it felt wonderful.  I have had a few treats but I enjoyed them and I didn't throw in the towel because of it.  I am going to keep your book in plain  site and read it everyday and to remind my self not to say negative things.

I can see it so clearly now, and for that I am truly thankful to you. My daughter is graduating from high school next year, and my son from college so I want to be fit.  Before I would have said that I needed to lose the 20lbs like yesterday.  I have changed my thoughts on what size jeans I will wear, to the fact I want to be healthy on the inside first.

I am so grateful for your insightful book.

Thank you again",  Marilyn R.

Counseling Testimonials

"I really appreciate your expertise and support in not only helping me to drop the excess weight that I couldn't get off for the past eight years, but the guidance in setting up the healthy lifestyle habits that I know will keep it off. Your approach to weight loss without pills or special "diet" food resonated with what I knew would work for me. You also quickly identified the challenges that I had to deal with and developed a program that took into account my personal and work schedules. Thanks again.", ” Evelyn B.

“One of the greatest gifts I have received from Roslyn is the ability to notice and celebrate my successes.  Every small success brings me closer to my goal.  I have learned that what I put in my body is the most personal choice that I can make.  Roslyn has taught me that the power of choice has the potential to change my life.  She has taught me to choose wisely.

Since starting to work with Roslyn and the principles found in the A-list, I am enjoying the journey toward a healthier, newer me.  Roslyn has been both gentle and flexible with me and in turn, I have learned to be gentle and flexible with myself. 

Since I have been in control of my eating, I have experienced a greater sense of joy.  Working with Roslyn has given me a great sense of inner peace.  I love the reflection in the mirror now because I know I am doing my best.  Seeing results is the icing on the cake.

I am so grateful for Roslyn and the principles found in the A-List.” Yolisa N.

"After my first consultation, I felt Roslyn was already helping me to put healthy living in perspective. It is about weight control and not about dieting. In fact it made me understand that it is all about ME!! From that point on, and with Roslyn's positive and quiet encouragement, I began to listen to myself and find where I wanted to be and not where others thought I should be. Only you can do the work that is needed to reach your life's goals. Roslyn helps you to find your way and do what you need to do for yourself, and it works!!!", Gwen B.

"No outlandish claims, no unrealistic promises. Roslyn Franken's approach to achieving a healthy weight is based on common sense and more importantly, a sense of control. Since starting her program I gained insights into my food choices and eating habits and lost over 33 pounds! What's more remarkable, I never felt hungry or deprived because Roslyn's program is NOT a diet. It's about eating and exercising in moderation, and seeing the inches melt away - nice and easy - for a real and permanent change.", Elaine C.

"I gladly welcomed your philosophy about weight loss when we first spoke. It made so much sense to me. It was exactly what I needed after years of following other diets, which did work, but did not stick. With your coaching, I learned to reduce my portions without feeling hungry and to make good choices. Because I was eating regular foods and all kinds of foods I did not feel deprived. I realized that I was not dieting but learning to eat the way I would eat for the rest of my life. I also reaffirmed to myself the need to exercise at the same time as I work at my nutritional plan to see encouraging results. It does make all the difference and reminded me also of the emotional benefits as well.", Françoise L.

"Going into Roslyn's weight loss program, I felt that I was taking a risk. Either her program could change my life, or make me feel defeated.  At first, it was difficult to comprehend that this wasn't a quick solution to weight loss. It would happen gradually over time. It wasn't a diet; it was a lifestyle change.  I didn't feel deprived or depressed, I became motivated to try new ideas and experience the results. It felt good to have Roslyn as someone on my side for once, and not have to lie about what I ate or beat myself because I ate the wrong thing. Gradually, I began to understand what Roslyn wanted me to see. I learned how to take care of myself. Only I can do that. Roslyn taught me how to give my body the nutrients it needs to stay energized and to be satisfied with myself as a whole. It is important for every woman to come to this realization, and not get lost in unrealistic expectations of herself. You can follow her plan. It takes commitment, but more than that, love for yourself. And the weight will come off. My drinking, exercise and sleeping habits have changed for the better too, and I haven?t gotten sick once. Roslyn is a great teacher and has helped to change me for the better.Thank you Roslyn.", Michelle C.

"I'm much more aware now of what triggers my binges, excessive eating and making the wrong choices. With Roslyn's one-on-one weight loss counseling and support I have learned to let go of the tension that builds with these triggers. It's much easier to let go when you know what the triggers are and to cope with those triggers in some other way than eating." ,Ginnette B

"Roslyn's program is practical and easy to follow with no real restrictions. I learned to control my impulse eating and make healthy food choices that leave me satisfied. I don't even feel like I'm on a diet...I like the daily accountability because Roslyn catches me as I get off track and then gets me back on track as soon as possible.", Chantal L.

"It's not a diet. It's a way of being kind to your body. It's easy. I now find myself craving more healthy food and actually miss fruits and vegetables if I don't have them. I don't miss my biggest trouble foods like I thought I would. The most important lesson I'm taking away is that being kind to your body is being kind to yourself. I've learned to be kinder to my body and myself.", Tina S.

"It's easier than other programs because you don't have to stop living a normal life to lose the weight. I look forward to my weekly coaching sessions rather than dreading it like with other programs I've been on. What I like is that Roslyn's program is not a diet...it's a way of life.", Genevieve D
