Reviews

"Only Gregg could tell a story that's this dark with this much humor. He brings hope to the most desperate situations in a refreshing and inspiring way."--Regina King, actor/director/producer"Gregg's life has changed so much for the better since losing the weight. And there's a lesson for all of us in his story. I've often said, because of our unique experiences, those struggles with our weight have created a unique bond between us all. We really are kind of like family. I'd like to invite you to take a look at Gregg's story, Weightless. Yes, it may have some different twists and turns from your own struggles. But I can guarantee, as you read his story, you're going to see a little bit of your own life in his. Just like Gregg, many of you have battled that weight for most of your lives but, believe me, you don't have to. There is a way out. You've just got to do like I once did, like so many of the people I've worked with have done, and like Gregg has done. You've got to stop ignoring the elephant in the room!"--Richard Simmons, TV Icon and fitness guru"Weightless is a delicious read in every way. In this funny, wise, and emotionally honest book, Gregg McBride offers hope and inspiration to weight-challenged people longing for change and acceptance without sacrificing their true selves."--Catherine Whitney, coauthor, Eat Right 4 Your Type"As someone who has struggled mightily with my weight and feeling "not good enough," I can proudly say that this book has helped me to find my way again. I'm sure it will do the same for you!" --Matt Hoover, winner, The Biggest Loser
