Book Review: If you want to loose weight for good--READ THIS BOOK
Summary: 5 Stars

After reading "THE END OF DIETS" I finally understand that no diet is ever going to really work. The way to loose way and to keep it off is to understand why I eat, or what the underling emotions that makes food my main pacifier.

This new years for the first time in my adult life I did not resolve to loose ten pounds, instead I have resolved to understand the reasons I run to food. I read the book right before Christmas and to my surprise the holistic techniques suggested helped me not gain weight during one of the most stressful and food driven times of the year, "THE END OF DIETS" actually helped me to loose three pounds in the last two weeks!!!

Since reading "THE END OF DIETS" I have been applying the simple, realistic approaches suggested and to my surprise I am beginning to understand why am eating, where am eating and how unconscious I have been when consuming most of the food I usually ate.

For the first time in a long time I feel as though I have a chance at loosing the unwanted pounds I have been carrying around for the last ten years. I think "THE END OF DIETS" is a sane doable approach to taking the weight off and keeping it off for good.
