Put your waistline in check and drop a size in just two weeks with You: On a Diet, a unique approach to weight loss from the authors of the bestselling You: The Owner’s Manual. Celebrated medical doctors Michael Roizen and Mehmet Oz give you the tools you need to live a longer, healthier, more active life by achieving the ideal weight and size for your body.
For the first time in human history, the authors write, “we have the medical evidence about food, appetite, and satiety that will allow you to tackle weight problems with the real weapon against fat: Knowledge.” Among their useful tips:
• Don’t undereat. To lose weight, you have to keep your body from switching into starvation mode. Eat often, in the form of frequent, healthy meals, and snacks.
• Eat without thinking. If your waist-management plan is going to work for your whole life, then eating right has to become as automatic as it was for our ancestors.
• Plan your meals. Start every day knowing when and what you are going to eat. That way, you’ll avert the 180-degree shift between starving and gorging that occurs when you skip meals.
Through interactive quizzes and measure- ments, you’ll establish baselines for such vital statistics as your ideal body size and your eating personality. You’ll learn the science of fat (“how we store it, how we burn it, how we fight it”), as well as how to make your feelings and emotions (and the chemicals that drive them) work for, not against, your waistline. The authors detail what to eat and how to move so that your body gains strength, without using weights or feeling hungry. You’ll also find out what to do if your weight is out of control, how to get your diet back on track if you give in to temptation, which foods help you burn fat faster, when to consider medical options, and more!
The practical 14-day plan in You: On a Diet includes recipes, exercises, and actions you can take to live a leaner and healthier life.
