Book Review: Eat right and exercise more, come on...
Summary: 1 Stars
We already know that we need to eat right and exercise. All diets work - short term. Unfortunately emotions are the reason why 95% of people can't sustain weight loss. Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Dr. Norton L. Williams found the only way to sustain weight loss is to change your habits...one at a time (also see Robert Mikkelsen's book The Story of Big Belly Bob). Funny how this research gets brushed under the carpet.
Below is some additional info:
Dr. Norton L. Williams, psychiatrist, said recently that modern man's anxiety and insecurity stemmed from a lack of "self-realization," and that inner security can only be found "in finding in oneself an individuality, uniqueness and distinctiveness. Our currently held beliefs, whether good or bad, true or false, were formed without effort, with no sense of strain, and without the exercise of "will power." Our habits, whether good or bad. were formed in the same way. It follows that we must employ the same process in forming new beliefs, or new habits, that is, in a relaxed condition. It has been amply demonstrated that attempting to use effort or will power to cure bad habits has an adverse rather than a beneficial effect.
Emile Coue` The little French pharmacist who astonished the world around 1920 with the results he obtained with "the power of suggestion," insisted that effort was the one big reason most people failed to utilize their inner powers. "Your suggestions (ideal goals) must be made without effort if they are to be effective," he said. Another famous Coue` saying was his "Law of Reversed Effort": "When the will and the imagination are in conflict, the imagination invariably will win."

Summary of The Busy Person's Guide to Permanent Weight Loss
The Busy Person's Guide to Permanent Weight Loss reveals a weight-loss plan busy people can successfully use in the real world.
Busy people see to everything and everyone-except themselves. The result is unexpected weight gain. But few people have the time to lose weight. This revolutionary approach to weight loss embraces the hectic lifestyle and provides realistic strategies for staying on target, including:
- a program that is easily tailored to fit individual dieting needs
- helpful dining options for eating out
- healthy, flavorful, and FAST menu ideas for eating in, and
- time saving strategies to maximize results.
No two people lose weight the same way, and busy people need a plan designed for their schedule. Dr. Jampolis has developed variations of the plan that will work with every lifestyle and every schedule. You can even create your own plan by applying her seven principles into a plan that suits your lifestyle.
