Book Description
Many of us have struggled with getting a grip on eating, exercise, or health habits, breaking the yo-yo diet cycle, or overcoming a complicated relationship with food. Now Weight Watchers, one of the world's leaders in providing weight-loss information and services, opens its doors so readers everywhere can read the motivational stories of people who've lost weight successfully-and changed their lives along the way.
Start Living, Start Losing shares 100 stories of everyday people and celebrities who reveal in compelling, moving, and sometimes humorous detail their journeys toward slimming down. From Bettyann Saggese, who describes the sense of shame she felt at not being able to fit through the turnstiles at her beloved baseball games, to Rolando Dente, who got his wake-up call to lose weight after suffering chest pains, to funny lady Jenny McCarthy, who struggled to get her pre-baby body back, these real people's personal frustrations, challenges, and triumphs will entertain, inform, and inspire. Throughout this compelling book, readers will get an intimate glimpse into how those successful at weight loss set their plans in motion, how they overcame obstacles, and how they changed internally along the way. Plus, in each story, readers will gain practical advice on incorporating favorite foods into their own diet, fitting exercise into a hectic schedule, and filling up with healthy snacks during the day, among many other takeaway tips.
