Diets Make you Fat, Eating makes you Skinny

Book excerpt: Have you ever dreamed of a weight loss program where you can eat as much as you want of all those things that you crave and still lose excess body fat? This dream program is now yours. This is an ad libitum program where you lose fat because of what you eat and not because of what you limit. You will discover through personal experience that there is no need to reduce calories or limit food groups to eliminate excess body fat. You will also obtain targeted fat loss since more fat will be lost from the waistline than from other parts of the body. Even more important, you will learn to think, feel and act in a different way around food. No magical remedies are promised and no miracle pills are promoted. Only through a sensible program and disciplined attitude will you be able to permanently rid yourself of excess fat. The book is divided into four parts. The first part explains why traditional diets are useless for long term weight loss, and how they may even worsen the problem. The second part presents a general outline of proven ways to permanently lose excess fat. The third part introduces a program which will not only help you nourish your body and lose excess fat; it will also reshape you to express your maximum genetic potential. The last part answers frequent questions made by my patients in relationship to this program. The philosophy of this program is the following: It is not what you eat in excess but what you are lacking in your daily menu that ruins your perfect metabolic balance and favors accumulation of excess body fat.
