The Blurb:
The easiest way to lose weight and keep it off for life.
Eat Less is a revolutionary book designed to help people lose weight and maintain a healthy weight for life.
Eat Less is NOT a diet book. It doesn’t read like a diet book or
look like a diet book. Eat Less is an anti-obesity manifesto.
Eat Less is stuffed with bite-sized nuggets of information on the benefits of eating less, advice on what to eat less of, and much more. Informative and motivational, the underlying message is very serious, but the manner in which it delivers those messages is never preachy and easily digestible.
Eat Less offers practical advice on the life-changing benefits that simply eating less food can bring.
Eat Less really works. The authors are living proof that the habit-changing lifestyle they set out could help millions of people easily get to a healthy weight and maintain it for life.
Eat Less is published by Urbane Publications today. You can purchase it here.
My Review:
After all the over indulgence over the festive period, this was a perfect read with which to start the new year.
Endorsed by two doctors, the authors are very clear that this is not a diet book. It is based on things that worked for them in their own weight loss journeys.
The book is very bright and eye catching. It's not long - just 125 pages, and some of these have illustrations on or large print statements. Points are well presented with a wee theme to each page, and the information is given, if you'll excuse the pun, in bite sized pieces. There are shocking statistics on obesity, sugar and fast food, and bad news for some dieters.
Some of the tips suggested are quite obvious, but others seen to contradict popular viewpoints, but everything appears to be backed up by research.
As stated, it's definitely not a diet book, and I was heartened to see the authors actively encouraging eating good food with family and friends, and celebrating high days and holidays. I was particularly delighted that I can carry on drinking red wine (in moderation, obviously!) and coffee. Not so keen on dropping sugar though!
This book is ideal for people looking for small lifestyle changes to help them lose weight and keep it off. Whilst I won't be doing everything in the book, I will be trying out some of the suggestions to see how they work for me.
The Authors:
Following a long career as an advertising creative, Jeremy has turned a lifelong fascination with food, diets and eating into a personal mission. Eat Less is Jeremy’s and wife Georgina’s impassioned attempt to get people everywhere to think more about what they eat and how they eat. The inspiration for this book came soon after he lost 2 stone in weight, simply by eating less and removing sugar and grain from his diet. Georgina is a certified group fitness instructor and runs regular mobile exercise classes in Battersea Park. Alongside this, she has developed a formula to help individuals lose weight, using a tailored weight loss management service and offering customised eating plans.
