Good Morning America contributor Tory Johnson truly believed that she would live happily ever if only she could lose weight. She seemed to be well on her way to that ever-lasting joy after losing 62 pounds in a year--a journey she detailed in her inspirational #1 New York Times bestseller The Shift. But as her initial euphoria began to subside, Tory realized that other areas in her life could use improvement as well. Buoyed by her success in weight loss, Tory began to apply the principles she had learned through The Shift to these other areas--work, relationships, money, and more--with the same patient tenacity. To her joy she soon saw that her Shift had only begun! In Shift for Good Tory delivers her remarkable results: how doors opened, relationships deepened, opportunity abounded in every direction--and all through taking small, simple, persistent actions. Tory's practical and intimate new book--filled with specific tips and encouragement--will inspire readers to Shift every day, in every way!

Tory Johnson truly believed she'd live happily ever after if she could just lose weight and get to an ideal size. The Shift: How I Finally Lost Weight and Discovered a Happier Life chronicled her successful quest to shed 60 pounds (and she's gone on to lose more, for a total of 80!). Stunned by and grateful to her family, friends, colleagues and readers coast-to-coast who responded so positively to her success, Tory felt empowered and satisfied...for a while...until she realized that to stop Shifting would be to settle. And why settle? What would be next? In Shift for Good, Tory Johnson once again candidly shares her journey as she uses the lessons and Shift-Gifts gained to explore how to keep good things happening, how to avoid feeling stuck in one place--even a happy place!--and how challenging even your own limits brings amazing new opportunities and a chance to give back to the community.

Good Morning America contributor Tory Johnson is all about helping women make great things happen.

In twelve months, she lost more than 60 pounds, and for the first time shares what she learned, what she ate and how she changed in The Shift: How I Finally Lost Weight and Discovered a Happier Life, her most personal book yet. In this updated trade paperback edition, Tory Johnson adds a look back at the amazing response her Shift has brought from thousands of people across the country, shares additional lessons learned in the year following the book's publication, and includes the stories of "Shifters" -- readers so inspired by her book they have made their own life-changing Shifts.
