Review of Weight Watchers Weight Loss That Lasts (Hardcover)

It's time we stopped fooling ourselves.Weight loss is a lifetime struggle.Diets that focus on restricting food until we reach our magic goal weight will not work long term.Magical thinking will not work even in the short term.

The message of this book is that weight loss is a product of reducing caloric intake below caloric expenditure.It focuses on real science and hard data.I found it extremely helpful in overcoming psychological barriers to weight loss.It also helped me understand the importance of a life long commitment to weight loss and healthy living.

If you want real facts instead of advertising fluff, this book is for you.
