Book Synopsis

This is an unusual and unusually interesting exploration of diet, weight and health that touches on memoir but lands on practicality. It's a cut-to-the-chase book that makes you realize that not everything you know about dieting and weight loss no matter how much you''ve read or experienced before is true, and that way too much of your brain, your time and your pocketbook has been taken up with the endless (and futile) quest. The authors' two distinct voices thread and play off each other throughout the book as they cover these intensively-researched topics:
Metabolism
Why Every Diet Works... and Then Doesn't
What Actually is Healthy Food?
The (Almost) Magic Pill: Exercise
Detox Teas, Juice Cleanses, Supplements, & Waist Trainers
The Science of Fat Loss
Sleep, Stress and Your Waistline
Disordered Eating or Eating Disorder?
The History of Dieting
The Biggest Key to Success - A Manifesto on Body Image
How to Make This Your Last Diet
Beco
