What's New About Weight Loss?
In the original YOU: On a Diet, we covered how to avoid the most common dieting pitfalls -- both biological and psychological. This info-packed new edition also has more than 100 new recipes, the latest cutting-edge research about the role of fat, and new questions and answers that will help you navigate the world of dieting. The book also includes new information about why fructose is such a poison to an overweight person. And it offers strategies for getting out of the perfect storm that makes us "gain waist." That's the storm of many factors -- the increase in processed foods, the fact that our butts spend more time glued to the couch than they do performing walking lunges, the crucial deadlines, the crying baby, the snarled traffic, and more. Once you understand how emotional, psychological, and biological factors all swirl around your cola-craving brain, you'll be equipped with a true life preserver for when you find yourself in dietary trouble.
What hasn't changed from the original is the fact that the real secret to achieving -- and maintaining -- the body you want is this: biology. Once you understand the subtle ways that your body tries to store fat (and the chemical, environmental, and societal forces that encourage your body to do that), you understand the equally subtle ways that you can nudge your body in the right direction. So you burn fat instead of store it. Want to know more? Click here to buy the new book.
