When I bought this book I was a little skeptical whether or not it was worth the money.I have read numerous books on dieting, ect and I never really understood what they were trying to teach, but this one really hit the nail on the head, so to speak.It shows you how to cut back safely and how not to cut too much and why.It also explains in easy terms why your body works a certain way and how to obtain what you want.For example, it explains how many calories you would need to cut back to lose X amount of weight in X amount of time.It has information on weight groups, the food pyramid, healthy weights and even a section in the back with foods listed and how many calories and fat they contain.So far I have been following the suggestions and have lost just about 40 pounds so I would definately say its worth the money!Its not hard to stick to (believe me, I HATE dieting) and you don't feel hungry all the time.It shows you how to start eating right and how to indulge when you crave.Its definately not a diehard-drop-the-weight-now book in any means.Learning how to eat right and how to eat your favorite foods and how to learn when to say when.I have since learned how to eat better and how your body sends signals when its full, truly full, and when its really hungry and not just craving that piece of cake you were eyeing.LOL...A way to finally lose the weight and how to maintain it is what I was looking for without pills and fad diets,and this is the book.Definately not a book for 'dummies'...
