SOLD OUT - Before selecting your NEXT dieting, exercise, or weight-loss strategy, the smartest thing you can do is to resist the urge to follow any dieting, exercise, or weight-loss advice, blindly. Your best defense against getting fooled is to obtain your knowledge from (only) credible sources. The information in this book is based on sound exercise and nutritional science. Exactly the type of information an informed medical or health professional would recommend to their own patients or clients. In fact, this book continues to receive accolades from Physicians, Registered Dietitians, and other Informed Health Professionals. The Fitness & Weight-loss Industry continues to make billions annually by selling empty promises and false hope to uninformed consumers. Let's face it, the words “Fast”, “Easy”, and “Effortless” can often make otherwise intelligent people, act totally stupid. This book is filled with the easy-to-understand explanations of the diet, exercise, and weight-loss topics that people ask about or get wrong most often. No, this is not a “diet book”, and it is not an “exercise routine book”. Instead, this book makes nutritional and exercise-science easy to understand. Once you finish reading this book, you can expect to easily trouble-shoot any exercise routine and accurately assess any diet, and in-turn, understand why it may not be producing the results you are seeking. You will begin to lose body-fat immediately. You will begin to see dramatic results from a “smarter” workout routine. STOP getting fooled by myths, lies, and misinformation, and START achieving your best weight-loss and exercise results. It was my pleasure to collaborate with Dr. Arthur E. Apolinario, M.D., a board certified family physician in North Carolina to create this book. Author's Note: This book is re-titled version of Franny Goodrich's original book, "Diet, Exercise, & Weight-loss BullSh*t - Exposed!"

Physicians' biggest frustration is that the Fitness and Weight-loss Industry's main function is to SELL empty promises and false hope to the average consumer. The magic words, “Fast, Easy, and Effortless,” often makes otherwise intelligent people act totally stupid. Making matters worse, many of today's personal trainers and gyms are more focused on gimmicks — things they think you'll buy — than on sound exercise and weight-loss principles. In the USA, a Registered Dietitian is the gold standard for nutritional expertise. They are essentially “Diet Doctors." Their consensus is that Weight Loss is, and always will be, an energy equation: Calories-in vs. Calories-out. Any reasonably healthy diet that causes a daily calorie deficit will cause you to lose weight — it's that simple. People should stop overthinking Carbs, Protein, Fat, and Macro-Nutrient Ratios. Supplement companies and diet-book authors use them to over-complicate eating, to create an unrealistic benefit of each. Just about every TV infomercial promoting weight loss, six-pack abs, or a beautiful body, will ALWAYS have a disclaimer — so tiny you cannot read it — at the bottom of the TV screen: “These Results Are Not Typical,” or, “When Combined with Healthy Eating and Exercise.” The translation is that the product being advertised does not work as advertised. This informative book not only exposes the frauds, it is filled with mostly one-page, easy-to-understand explanations of the things people ask about, or, get wrong most often. Arthur Apolinario, MD, MPH, FAAFP has gone through the research for you to offer the simplest explanations of what you need to do to get healthy.

In this eye-opening book, New York Times science writer Gina Kolata shows that our society's obsession with dieting and weight loss is less about keeping trim and staying healthy than about money, power, trends, and impossible ideals. Rethinking Thin is at once an account of the place of diets in American society and a provocative critique of the weight-loss industry. Kolata's account of four determined dieters' progress through a study comparing the Atkins diet to a conventional low-calorie one becomes a broad tale of science and society, of social mores and social sanctions, and of politics and power. Rethinking Thin asks whether words like willpower are really applicable when it comes to eating and body weight. It dramatizes what it feels like to spend a lifetime struggling with one's weight and fantasizing about finally, at long last, getting thin. It tells the little-known story of the science of obesity and the history of diets and dieting—scientific and social phenomena that made some people rich and thin and left others fat and miserable. And it offers commonsense answers to questions about weight, eating habits, and obesity—giving us a better understanding of the weight that is right for our bodies.

The Health and Fitness industry has lied to me for many years. It is currently worth $4.2 trillion. The Healthy Eating, Nutrition and Weight Loss sector alone is worth $ 702 billion.A brilliant idea for a lucrative business is to make simple and straightforward issues seem extremely complicated, and then convince people that they just cannot find a solution on their own. Another cool way to make big bucks is to offer people some ideas, which will apparently to solve their problem, but in reality they constitute only a mere fraction of the ultimate solution, and can never work on their own without a comprehensive approach.Either way, the industry is making giant money on people like you, who want to learn more, but there is just so much information thrown at them that they just can't distinguish legit data from crap that was creatively made to look like evidence-based material.Perhaps you're a serial dieter and you've tried literally everything that's out there, keto, paleo, fasting, magic powders, detox, low-carb, high-carb, you name it.Or maybe you're a mature woman and have been told that weight loss over 50 is just not happening, and you have to come to terms with it. Maybe you have been unsuccessfully trying to lose that post pregnancy weight.Or perhaps you feel bitter and disappointed because you are so dedicated to your workout routines and healthy eating but somehow you still can't seem to get rid of those last few pounds to finally see the body that you have been working so hard for. It may be that you are simply a little bit scared and reluctant to start any weight loss program, because they all just seem to be so strict that they would require your undivided attention and efforts, and completely signing out of your normal family and social life.You do not need to be always hungry and miserable to lose weight. Your life does not have to be full of restriction and exclusions. Your family life does not have to be ruined. Social situations do not have to be unbearable.You don't have to kiss pizza goodbye forever.You don't have to kill yourself training.You can eat as many meals per day as you want, at whatever time you choose.You don't have to spend hundreds of dollars on supplements.Sounds like science-fiction? It's not. It's just science. No magic.Do yourself a favor - stop reading obsolete and harmful weight loss theories. Stop listening to charlatans telling you that a detox or magic pills will solve your problem. Stop getting excited about new strict "weight loss" diets, which promise you 40 lbs less in 2 months, where all you have to do is eliminate almost all foods that normal people eat every day.... Learn what weight loss is really about, how it actually happens, and how you can pull this off and still live a normal life.I summarized it all here for you. I focus on the most important things you need to know. All you will read here is based on pure scientific knowledge and its sensible interpretation, and not on guesswork or some tortuous ideologies that simply feel right at the time for their authors so they present them as scientific facts.The weight loss process is simple, logical, and easy. This is the only book on weight loss that you will ever need, because nothing else actually works.Does this mean it will require no effort at all? Of course not. You have to work to get what you want. After all - "If we keep doing what we're doing, we're going to keep getting what we're getting." [Stephen Covey]Will this turn your life upside down?No, not in a negative sense. You can lose weight while having a normal life. But it will definitely be a life-changing experience, this I can promise :)
