Not a Diet Book: Take Control. Gain Confidence. Change Your Life.

Product Information

Join James Smith in this revolutionary book that will help fix bad habits... because trust me, it is so much simpler than everyone wants you to believe! Some parts were too simplistic. And you can’t crush everyone else’s anecdotes and then promote your own...unless it’s you writing your own book...which this situation falls under. Grain of salt and everyone can enjoy it. This could possibly be a five star book for most of the content, if not for being super obnoxious at the beginning. She seems to go out of her way to make a plan based around good health and nutrition sound like scammy crash diet program, and also implies that if you want to lose weight you hate how you look right now and that thin=fabulous. (I already look fabulous, thank you, I just want to be look fabulous AND have less excess fat.)

This is another weight-loss book that promises you will lose belly fat in a short period of time (10 days to be exact). Kellyann Petrucci, MS, ND, is the author of "The 10-Day Belly Slimdown" and also serves as concierge doctor to Hollywood celebrities.James Smith' no-nonsense approach to food and fitness is completely refreshing. Boiling it down to one principal - that of creating a calorie deficit, is the stand out message of this book. Nothing else really matters - as Smith himself points out, the method isn't really important. But trajectory and where you're headed is. Whether recommending apps, examining exercise that's right for you, or discussing diets and why they tend not to work - Smith maintains a neutral and knowledgeable source of excellent insight. The general principles laid down in the book will undoubtedly help anyone who reads it and follows the advice to feel happy and healthier. It’s not meant to be in our diet but it’s everywhere. And when I cut that out, all of a sudden, my body started functioning better, and I could metabolise the food I was storing and get rid of it, and then improve my mood and then start exercising.’ A question I’m often asked is whether I prefer novels or non-fiction, and – truth be told – I don’t really have a preference. In the wake of finishing a degree in English Literature, I would have been more inclined to choose fiction rather than fact when deciding on what to read next, but these days it’s a fairly even split. I actually tend to have two books on the go at any given time – and usually gravitate more towards reading non-fiction in the early hours of the morning, and novels before I go to bed. In recent years I’ve come to love the lessons I learn from the number of non-fiction books I’ve read, and this year alone having read more about everything from sleep and lifestyle to business, have raced through the likes of The 5am Club, The Miracle Morning, Legacy, The Four Hour Working Week and many more besides. Motivating, inspiring and the type of book that will make you question your own quest for success and the lengths you’re prepared to go to to live a happy and fulfilled life – whatever that looks like to you – Not a Diet Book should be required reading for everyone who needs incentive, stimulus and inspiration to better themselves as the start of a new decade approaches. Readers will finish Not a Diet Book, equiped with the knowledge they need to not only embrace a healthier and more balanced relationship with food and exercise, but too with the tools for success to excel in all areas of their life. Please don't think this is a hard book to read and understand. Dr. KellyAnn tells it like it is and the wording is very easy to understand.

I was really excited about getting this brand new book in the mail! It's important to know what to expect ahead of time with this book so you aren't disappointed. I think this plan would be great for those suffering from Gut issues. This plan will help heal you intestinal tract and cleanse you. Learn to reset your current mindset and attitude towards your diet and training, with chapters covering:It is full of insight on so much to do with your over all health. Wrinkles, thinning hair, chipping nails, poor skin. Oh did I mention it will help you lose up to 10 pounds in 10 days and tell you how to keep it off. So, be prepared to transform your attitudes, fix bad habits, lose fat, gain confidence, and become the best possible version of yourself with the last ‘diet’ book you’ll ever need. The before and after pictures do not show a drastic change in weight in 10 days. This book appears to be for those who need to lose a few pounds. I can see where her diet would heal your gut and make you healthier, though, and this may be an excellent benefit of her diet.

Davina also recalled the moment she was warned about her weight by doctors, who urged her to ‘moderate’ her food intake. If you are looking for a diet plan just to lose your belly fat or pounds before an event, in my opinion this plan wouldn't be for you. You are pretty much just drinking water, smoothies, broth, and having a small dinner meal; for the span of 10 days. That takes along of will power and determination! Reading about his desire to make Australia mirrored much of my own experience – having been twice deported but having now lived in Sydney (albeit via a three-month stint in both Los Angeles and Bali) for almost four-and-a-half years, it’s certainly a country that has an allure for many people, however hard the government try to makes it for expats to stay.There are some fundamental truths, research and facts that you will hear time and time again, but at the end of the day, what works and what doesn't will depend on the individual applying the methods. And each of us changes - we go through different phases, different levels of motivation and different circumstances. The best gift you can give yourself is a slim, beautiful, healthy belly--and in this book, Dr. Kellyann, an expert I trust, tells you exactly how to get it." - Mehmet Oz, M.D. This is a good book with a good amount of information which helps debunk a lot of myths that abound about health, fitness, and diet. I already knew most of it though, so it wasn't super new to me and all that I know was gained for free online, so while the book is a great way to get that info in a single place easily without need for researching it yourself - it is available for free and pretty easy to find with a little research. Still, I listened to this via my library, so I didn't have to pay for it, so no loss for me.

Man I really dislike this book and this guy. What a load of rubbish I just listened to. It was like he was having an argument with someone the whole time. Same with food prep programs like Jenny Craig. Yes, you'll lose weight. But you won't know how to do it WITHOUT THEM. And that's what they're counting on. What a load of rubbish! This guy thinks he is something he is not. I struggled to get through his vacuous egotistical ramblings. Nothing new here. All rehashed ideas. His views on relationships are ill thought out and potentially dangerous, encouraging ppl to leave relationships as you have to look after no1. No mention of being open, patient or longevity. There are so many holes in most of his laddish philosophies. James Smith isn't about that life. He wants you to join his program (or don't, you can learn a lot from him for free on social media), learn as much as you want or need, and then go on about your life without a recurring bill showing up on your credit card each and every month until you die. (Except maybe that gym membership charge. But only if you use it. :P) The 43-year-old – who famously played Jude Cunningham in the Channel 4 soap – went from a size 16 to a size eight, and has penned a book on her journey.

Christmas Cards & Gift Wrap

Self-confessed disruptor of a billion-dollar diet industry, James is armed with every tool you’ll ever need to achieve incredible results from dieting, training, and staying in shape to identifying the fads, phonies and nonsense that get in the way of genuinely lasting progress. Hollyoaks actress Davinia Taylor has opened up about her weight loss, after shedding more than three stone. The book is easy to read and has lots of recipes. The diet is a combination of intermittent fasting and the Keto diet aka cut out carbs and dairy plus add bone broth. The number of calories you're likely to take in on this diet is likely to be in the 1,000-1,200 range, so that too will aid in weight loss. Hollyoaks confirms truly mind-blowing twist as Peri Lomax and Romeo Nightingale’s huge secret revealed Because that's what it's all about, right? Maintenance. Can you maintain that Low/No-Carb diet forever? Can you maintain that uber-restrictive clean eating plan? Or that juice fast/skinny coffee/coffee with butter/fat-blast lollipop/whatever diet? I sure the hell couldn't. I can't maintain even the CONCEPT of those kinds of insane restrictions long term. One of the first things that I learned from James via his videos was this: You don't need a diet. You HAVE a diet. You just need to make it work for you. And that's where the education that he provides comes in... to learn what your daily energy expenditure and calorie needs look like, and then work with those numbers to create a sensible, reasonable deficit that will result in losing fat.
