Mailbox Monday
This week I only received one book in my mailbox:
Natural Weight Loss by Stan Spencer, PhD
This book isn’t about the latest celebrity diet, wonder food, or miracle supplement. It’s about creating a personalized weight loss plan—your own easiest path to naturally thin. While you can lose weight with almost any diet, keeping the weight off is much more difficult, requiring permanent changes in eating and exercise habits. This book provides a science-based approach for making those changes in a way that works best for you, without wasting time, money, or effort.
Dr. Spencer explains why we gain weight and why the fat lost by dieting almost always comes back. He then presents an array of practical weight loss tools for controlling emotional eating, calming cravings, boosting metabolism, and improving nutrition and exercise. In the final chapter he has you create a natural weight loss plan based on your unique set of needs, abilities, and preferences. Simple recipes are provided for weight loss foods that reduce cravings and prolong satisfaction.
What this book offers is a solid approach to weight loss—self-directed, gradual, and lasting—in contrast to the quick but fleeting weight loss offered by most one-size-fits-all diet plans.

The natural way seems always to be the best. Now if I could only convince the rest of the people in my household 🙂
Looks like an interesting book. Enjoy!
I hope that’s as wonderful as it sounds!
Sounds like a healthier way to do it, too. Enjoy! And thanks for visiting my blog.
Hi Vicki,
The natural way is by far the best, rather than the ‘boom or bust’ mentality of so many diet plans.
Of course, I suppose the ultimate way to achieve permanent weightloss, is moderation in all things … a complete change of diet and lifestyle.
I could certainly do with taking some of my own advice right now!
I hope that you get some great ideas from this book and if you find something that works .. let me know!
Enjoy your week, Yvonne
A science based diet sounds sensible. Hope it lives up to the description.
This book would come in handy right now as I try to lose weight for my son’s wedding in Nov. Have a wonderful week!
Sounds like a good approach. I’ll be curious to see what you think. I think my key to losing weight would be to have a personal chef.
Having a personal chef would be awesome!
Sounds like something good…ENJOY!!
I like weeks with not too many books. 🙂
