From the authors behind YOU: The Owner's Manual, comes another book in this interesting series. Backed by scientific research and plenty of common sense, this book is designed to present readers with a quick and dirty, no nonsense, no uncertain terms look at weight loss, or as the authors describe it, "waist management". This book involves applying the signature wit and wisdom behind the YOU books to diet, weight loss, food metabolism and nutrition. There is a lot of information packed into this book, including lots of fun factoids, myth busters and quizzes, but you will also find bite sized portions of instruction including diet plans, exercise plans, recipes, and a rebooting program over the span of two weeks that will allow you to get a better grasp on your health and fitness without actually having to "diet".
According to the authors, if you follow the YOU diet outlined in the book, as well as the YOU activity plan, you can expect to:
- Challenge your longstanding beliefs about dieting,
- Learn how to rule the elegant systems that are behind the control of your body and body fat,
- Overcome constant hunger,
- Never have to yo-yo diet ever again,
- Feel better, live healthier and look better in the process!
If you are looking for a quick, informative and no nonsense type of diet, then this is a book that is well worth picking up. It does not mince words, or try to overwhelm you with dietary information that won't ever make sense. The truth is, this book is as simple as it can get when it comes to "waist management", giving you the information you need to know and leaving out the bull. This book is full of fun facts, informative quizzes, myth busters, and all kinds of unique and descriptive graphics. Imagine black and white imagery detailing in cartoon-style exactly what is going on in your body during metabolic processes, digestion, even when tasting food! This book is chock full of interesting imagery, simple to understand instruction, and the perfect diet and exercise program that will get you feeling fantastic and making healthy changes in your life in no time at all.
This book speaks to anyone who has yo-yo dieted forever and never found satisfactory results, because rather than offer you a temporary diet to shed pounds at lightning speeds, this book is all about adopting and adapting healthy, positive changes in your life based on how your body wants to eat and exercise, rather than forcing your body to do things it wasn't meant to do. Are you ready for some healthy, no nonsense waist management? Then this is the book for you.

I generally hate diet books as diets don’t work. However, from your review, it seems that this book is all about making real, long term changes to your eating habits, as opposed to actually dieting. If this is the case, it might be worth a read. Thanks for the review.

This doesn’t seem like a diet program as much as it does a book outlining the right attitude and lifestyle you need to have to be successful at losing weight, which is a good thing.
I’m sick of seeing a new diet fad book pop up every day. This is a nice bit of fresh air in the diet book industry.
