Thin for Life: 10 Keys to Success from People Who Have Lost Weight & Kept It Off - Softcover
Anne Fletcher's acclaimed bestseller, which refuted the popular notion that losing weight permanently is hopeless, is revised to include a discussion of high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets, obesity medications, a body mass index chart, and an updated references list. Updated stories from the masters--those who have lost weight and kept it off, along with statistics from the National Weight Control Registry reinforce Fletcher's message that losing and maintaining weight-loss are attainable goals.

Review:
What a novel idea: if you want to know how to successfully lose weight, study the real experts--the people who have done it! Registered dietician Anne Fletcher did just that. She surveyed 160 "masters" who succeeded in losing at least 20 pounds and keeping the weight off for at least 3 years. This was the minimum; most lost far more weight--an average of 63 pounds--and more than one-third have kept the weight off for a decade or more.
From the Publisher:
How did they do it? Thin for Life presents their success stories, strategies, motivation, inspiration, and tricks. Most had tried "many times and many ways" to lose weight before discovering what worked for them and how to prevent and recover from relapses. Some techniques worked for many--such as keeping a food diary and increasing exercise. Others were highly individual and will spur you to do your own creative thinking. Fletcher compiles the "10 keys to success" that emerged most often, lets the masters speak for themselves throughout the book, and fills in additional, valuable information and resources. Whether you have 10 pounds to lose or 100, this book will help you do it--safely, effectively, and permanently. Highly recommended. --Joan Price
Thin for Life is chosen one of the "Three Best Diet Books on the Market" by the Tufts University Health & Nutrition Letter AND receives a 2004 National Health Information Award.
