Are you too fat? Australia's leading nutritionist examines the great diet hoaxes and explains the only sure way to lose weight.
Why do so many people diet but still grow fatter? Why do some people stay slim even when they eat junk? Why do so many women, including very slim women, become obsessed with body fat and diets, while so many overweight men ignore levels of body fat which are a real health risk?
This book seeks to answer all these questions. It looks at all the popular diets and slimming methods and exposes the frauds, futilities, rip-offs and dangers in many of them. It explains why many diets will end up making you fatter and why there can be no magic formula for fast and effortless weight loss.
This is a book for people who are sick of gimmicks and who want to know what normal weight is and how it can be achieved. It contains practical advice about how to change your eating and exercise habits to improve your health, and to increase your energy level and your enjoyment of life.
