Rave Reviews

"This is the first weight loss book I have read that isn''t filled with endless diets that are impossible to live with, calorie charts and lists of demands to eat this or that. It is more a guide to help you learn about yourself - what motivates you, what drags you down. The WHY of what we eat is as important as the WHAT."

"In taking a non-judgmental, one size does not fit all approach, Dr. Nash enpowers the reader to really examine what is required for success encompassing both the vital lifestyle changes and the emotional pitfalls that can derail weight loss efforts if not recognized and planned for. I especially like the many online resources and tips that are listed throughout."
