Product Description

From Amazon.com

This is a smart book. It knows that your solution for losing weight is not exactly like someone else's. It guides you through the process of tailoring your own 14-week weight-loss program, including food plans and exercise, taking into account your own lifestyle and preferences. Whether you want a program that counts calories, fat grams, or food exchanges, this workbook leads you to develop a sound program that will work for you. It recognizes that emotional issues are as instrumental as food choices, so the book addresses cravings, overeating triggers, weight-loss readiness, exercise motivation, realistic vs. unrealistic goals, lapses, and negative thinking. A sample week's menu plan with recipes is included, but the bulk of the book is about understanding your habits and making the changes you want to make.

Reading this book will give you the tools to lose weight, but actually filling out the 30-plus worksheets will put those tools to work. In National Institutes of Health research studies, participants lost weight and reduced their fasting blood sugar (glucose) levels by using this workbook. The more worksheets they completed, the more weight they lost. So don't just read the book--fill out the worksheets. Although written specifically for people with (or at risk for) diabetes, this workbook will help anyone who wants to lose weight. --Joan Price

4.0 out of 5 stars Great award-winning book, Aug 6 1999

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Complete Weight Loss Workbook (Paperback)

I have just noticed that this book won a Special RecognitionAward award from the American Medical Writers Association (aprofessional group that I belong to). I found this book very realistic, very different from the fad diet books that are so popular. The only problem I had with it is that it's written at a low reading level. That's with good reason, but some highly educated people might tire of its style. My husband is using it to lose weight and so far, so good.

1.0 out of 5 stars The Book is Missing, Sep 29 2005

By S. R. MARRERO - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Complete Weight Loss Workbook (Paperback)

..I was looking forward to having this book since I am a diabetic and the book was recomended to me for planning my meals..The book was mailed to me but I never received it..Probably the mail carrier placed the slip at a different mailbox and the person went to the post office and got the book.(since no ID is required)I do not blame the sender..The sad story is that no one seems to be accountable, not the carrier, not the post office..Unfortunately there are still people that care very little for the next guy..
