A must read, this book -- chock full of photos -- is honest, helpful, funny, and encouraging. It tells the story of one physician's (Dr. Nick Yphantides) major struggle with overeating/obesity and his well-calculated plan to lose (several hundred pounds) -- and keep it off. Losing weight can be serious business; it can also be difficult. Among other things, Dr. Nick's story encourages us to approach weight loss with 1) a good plan, 2) a good support system, and 3) a good sense of humor, and he gives helpful suggestions in all three of these areas to help insure success. I e-mailed Dr. Nick with my thanks for his book; he e-mailed back! Great guy; great book.
This book was extremely easy reading and so interesting that I couldn't put it down. Written by a doctor who used to weigh 467 pounds, and after years of being over-weight started being accountable for his situation. He has an excellent website where people can sign up and have their own page where they can be accountable too. Visit it at www.healtsteward.com - After only 3 weeks I'm down 19 pounds already!!!
I had heard Dr. Yphantides speak on Focus on the Family and wanted to read more about his story. It is an excellent book and is very inspiring. It has helped me out a lot with my own weight issues and learning that I have to change the way I see things before I can change my weight!
I decided to buy the book after hearing Dr. Nick on a radio interview talking about his experience. He sounded like a doctor that really cared and knew what he was talking about. I enjoyed the book and received encouragement from it. I have also visited his web site.
i like the way the writer describe his life in a book, and it's inspiring many people, including people very close to me in a very simple way to understand that you are capable to go ahead. Who reads it, understands what I'm talking.
