What a book!This book is unique in the fact that it is not what you might think it was by looking at the title but at the same time once you have read the book cover to cover you will see that the title is exactly what it purports to be…(Are you still with me?)
By and large, no pun intended, Charlie Hills has succeed in his humorous sarcastic take on his failures at being able to keep weight off – although he has had sporadic successes when he asserted himself.The whole point of Charlie’s writing the book is that most all diets work and at the same time most all diets don’t work; the onus is on the dieter to use common sense in eating right and getting the proper exercise and not continually falling for one fad diet after another.The book is rather sarcastic in a hilarious way but if you are one of the millions of people who have found yourself trying to shed a few pounds (or more than a few) you will see yourself in Charlie Hills’s self-deprecating remarks.This tome is about getting serious about loosening up about dieting and I must say it works for me.
If you want a shot of humor with a dose of reality about dieting, get hold of this book.It would also make a good gift for any friends you know who are comrades in the struggle to reach their ideal size and weight.

How to Survive Your Diet and Conquer Your food Issues Forever
Author: Linda MoranISBN: 0-9749396-0-9Publisher: Betterway PressWhat I most loved about Linda Moran’s book – which aims to help those afflicted by the ills of dieting to become normal eaters – is that she doesn’t emphasise exercise as the route to shedding pounds. What a relief! As she claims in the book, she spent one year immobile and still lost weight – the point is that if we’re truly in tune to eating only what our body needs, which is what this book is about, it will adjust our...
