The Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Hardcover)

Product Description: For anyone who has ever fretted over calories or snacked in secrecy, THE ENLIGHTENED DIET goes beyond restrictive regimens and quick-fix claims to get to the roots of weight gain. Proving that it's not just what you're eating, but how, why, where, and even with whom you're eating, health researchers Deborah Kesten and Larry Scherwitz identify seven eating styles that lead to overeating and offer proven strategies for overcoming them. By accounting for both measurable nutrients as well as more intangible ingredients such as emotions, mindfulness, gratitude, companionship, and nonjudgment, this practical guide provides tools for achieving and maintaining a healthy weight.

The Enlightened Diet: Seven Weight-loss Solutions That Nourish Body, Mind, and Soul (Paperback)

Product Description: This straightforward, kindly volume provides a logical discussion of weight loss and the steps required to achieve and sustain it. Rippe (Heart Disease for Dummies), founder of the Rippe Lifestyle Institute (a nutrition, exercise and medical research organization), shares his own stories of weight gain and loss in the book's introduction, then spends the following 10 chapters breaking down what he identifies as the most popular weight-loss myths (e.g., "you can't lose weight and keep it off"; "you can lose weight with exercise alone"; "calories don't matter—avoid fats or carbs to lose weight successfully"; "you can boost your metabolism by what, how, and when you eat"). Each chapter includes an explanation of a myth and the kernels of truth and valid research that led to its perpetuation. Of course, the underlying basis for the book is that the way to achieve lasting, healthy weight loss is to follow the Weight Watchers method, and Rippe includes personal triumph stories from followers of that program.

Ayurvedic Guide to Diet & Weight Loss (Paperback)

The simplistic title Think Thin Be Thin doesn't really encompass the ideas laid out in this encouraging book. Rather than designing a diet and exercise plan that promises results, authors Doris Wild Helmering and Dianne Hales focus instead on the psychology behind eating, and offer 101 short suggestions for getting healthy that can accompany any plan out there.

The tips are drawn from a variety of disciplines, including Gestalt therapy, transactional awareness, compliance theory and cognitive-behavior therapy: all these sources these translate to "there's something for everyone". Old standards like keeping a food diary and finding simple ways to burn calories (like gardening or taking the stairs at work) are mixed with creative ideas like becoming your own advice columnist for a day and watching specific comedy movies that also offer encouragement for change (think Groundhog's Day). Whether you sit down and plow through the book in one sitting or pick and choose a few tips to follow for short time periods, you'll find the positive tone both relaxing and inspiring.

Think Thin, Be Thin: 101 Psychological Ways to Lose Weight (Paperback)

Product Description: Determined to teach teens the difference between "right" weight and "ideal" weight, a dietitian as well as the author of several books on weight control draws inspiration from the experiences of her son, Wes. Though she offers little that's new in terms of dieting tips here, the book's positive approach and the stories and comments from young people will encourage and inform both teens and their parents. At the same time, several important things come clear: losing weight and keeping it off is hard work, and no one plan, diet, or exercise regimen is right for all. Convincing teens of those truisms is half the battle, and Fletcher's combination of teen talk and nutritional advice can help serious dieters get started. Her introduction notes the importance of consultation with a physician before undertaking a weight-loss regimen, and the appendix lists further references and describes commercial weight-loss programs that are open to teens.
