This is the first completely honest diet book that will help you tailor a programme to fit you, with a diet for every body: six diet plans that can be customised to any body type, by the authors of the worldwide bestseller "You: The Owner's Manual". The only way to achieve your health and weight loss goals is to ask yourself one question: What's your ideal body? It's no secret that countless people are desperate for help to lose those extra pounds. It seems no matter how many times we think we've finally found a magic bullet for weight loss, it just doesn't work out. And this trend will continue until we recognize that the key to effective and lasting weight loss cannot be found inside a book on cutting carbs, in a video on aerobics, or in a tape on weight loss meditations. Instead, the key to successful long term weight loss can only be found inside one place: you. Welcome to "You: On a Diet" - a book that finally makes sense of weight control and weight loss and that gives you a specific action plan for helping you define your ideal body and finding the means to achieve it. Ultimately, weight control isn't about getting as thin as possible - a fact that virtually goes unacknowledged by most diet plans. There are medically obese people who live with no risk of health problems, and there are so-called thin people whose risk of dying is terribly high. Successful weight control is about finding your ideal body. In "You: On a Diet", we redefine what a healthy figure is and give you the tool kit to figure out yours. We believe that when you understand your anatomy, you'll better understand - and appreciate - what you need to do in order to maintain it. This anatomical approach will be one of the things that differentiates us from most plans. This book will teach you everything from what fat looks like to how skin expands. Know the why, and you'll successfully handle the how. About the Author Michael F. Roizen, M.D. created the RealAge(R) concept and is the author of the #1 New York Times Bestseller, RealAge.
