MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK

The Great Weight Debate: Get the Facts and Choose the Diet That’s Right for You by Amy Newman Shapiro. What an interesting book, especially for people who have tried diet after diet and have failed. This is not a fad diet book. But in this book, author Amy Newman Shapiro does list all of the many diets and summarizes each one in a way that readers can understand and know. A lot of the diets I have never heard of, but there are many I have heard of, and I have tried a few of them. But what readers will learn is that just as everyone is different, every diet is different. And hopefully after reading this book you will have a better idea of which diet is the best for you to choose. In addition to diets, Amy talks about different foods and why they are or may not be the best choices for you.

All in all, this is one of the best books on dieting I have ever read, and I have read a lot. I learned many interesting things about some of the diets that have been floating around for years. This book is a great resource and I will definitely be keeping my copy for those times I need answers. This book is Five Stars for me.

A special thanks to the author/publisher for a copy of this book. I am not required to write a positive review, the opinions here are mine alone. I am disclosing this with my review in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255. ( )

“The Great Weight Debate’ is packed with valuable information for those searching for just the right diet for their lifestyle. It is the perfect reference book to use when wanting to choose a diet that works with your current circumstances or for when you need to change things up a bit. After all, one eating plan can become boring after a while.

The author emphasizes that the best diet is one that considers your lifestyle, food preferences, and schedule.

The heart of the book is Chapter 3 where she gives an analysis of the current most popular diets. She spells out, in an unbiased manner, how the diet works, what the experts have to say about it, and who it is the best fit for. The rest of the book is perhaps information you already knew.

Easy to read, this is a book worth having on hand when you need to drop a few pounds but still want to eat healthily. ( )

It's easy to decide that you are going to lose weight, but how easy is it to succeed in reaching your goal? How many books have you read and how many diets have you tried? If you're like me, the answer is quite a few, so this new book just may be the answer for all of us! Amy Newman Shapiro shares advice and tips in this easy-to-read book that explains how to lose weight and how to keep it off!

The Great Weight Debate is divided into three parts: The Dieting Business; The Diets; and Getting Healthy/Staying Healthy. I was aware that the dieting business is extremely profitable, but 70 billion dollars? Knowing how to choose the best diet was my main interest, and Shapiro explores many of the popular plans. She explains how the plan works, what the experts say, and if this diet is best for you. Losing weight is one thing, but will it harm your health? I also appreciated learning how to reach my goal, and maintain that success, because There Is No Finish Line! Weight maintenance requires discipline and vigilance, but it can be achieved!

The Great Weight Debate: Get the Facts and Choose the Diet That's Right For You by Amy Newman Shapiro is the ultimate resource. I recommend it to all who want a better, healthier weight-loss solution.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts. ( )
