Weight Loss: What Really Works!: Weight Loss Winners Share Their Secrets

This ISBN number is actually for a Hardback book -- this book calls on the experiences of "the biggest informal research group we'd ever heard from" to offer moral support and specific advice to other potential readers. Some of the advice: take exercise regularly, especially walking, and particularly right after meals; eat many small meals each day, rather than three large ones, avoiding red meat and sweets, and concentrating instead on vegetarian offerings; learn how to read food labels so you won't be duped by the apparently nutritive. And pursue variety to avoid the oppression sometimes induced by a virtuous regimen.
