BOOK INTRODUCTION
This is not a diet book. You can lose weight on almost any diet. But diets end, and when they do, the weight returns.
This book is about natural, lasting weight loss. Natural weight loss simply consists of undoing the situations, habits, and thought patterns that have caused you to gain weight in the first place. If you make those changes permanent, your weight loss will be permanent also. That’s it. You don’t need supplements, specially formulated shakes, drugs, surgery, fancy exercise equipment, or any other weight loss product.
Hundreds of scientific studies relevant to natural weight loss have been conducted over the past few years. This book takes the most useful information from those studies and presents it simply, cutting through diet hype and weight loss myths to provide scientifically supported facts and practical advice for lasting weight loss.
CONTENTS
1. Why the Weight?
2. How It Adds Up
3. Myths
4. Why Diets Fail
5. Eat Less (Without Going Hungry)
6. Be Active (Without Wasting Time)
7. Boost Your Metabolism (Without Drugs)
8. Emotional Eating (And How to Quit)
9. Beat Temptation (With Minimal Willpower)

“My Fat Buster”
My Idea:
The Truth: the real, straight talk, all natural, skinny on skinny
I like the “Slim” title.
How about “Taking the “Die” out of Diet: a no diet weight guide”
My favorite title option is “The Skinny on Thin”. For a subtitle, I like “How to Lose Weight When Diets Fail.”
I’d buy this:
1. This is Not a Diet Book:
G. The Myth-busting Guide to Natural, Lasting Weight Loss
1.E.
This is Not a Diet Book: How to Lose Weight When Diets Fail
geminicalli at yahoo dot com
On a second thought, taking it from one of the chapter names, “Why Diets Fail” could also be a great title!
I’d go with 8 and G… “The Non-Diet: The Myth-busting Guide to Natural, Lasting Weight Loss.”
