Margaret Churchill developed the Diet Inside Out approach to weight change during a long journey of personal, professional, and scholarly efforts. After several years of being fat she grew disillusioned with fad diets and gimmicks.
Joining Weight Watchers helped her learn the mechanics of nutrition and weight loss. Working as an award winning Weight Watcher leader for nearly 15 years gave Margaret the opportunity to help thousands lose weight.
However, she noticed that the “person” or “self” was overlooked, and that motivation was treated like grace – anticipated, but not always available. When Margaret left Weight Watchers, her former members at Weight Watchers urged her to continue offering services to the weight challenged. Diet Inside Out is the result.

She’s successfully maintained a 45-pound weight loss for over 20 years.
