As a medical doctor who has personally struggled with his weight, Dr. Nick Yphantides can empathize with the plight of the overweight and offer a proven, medically safe plan for losing weight. In My Big Fat Greek Diet, he teaches readers the powerful 7 Pillars of Weight Loss. His program features practical how-tos anyone can apply, whether they need to lose 10 or 300 pounds. Analyzing components of a variety of well-known diets, Dr. Nick assists readers in customizing a weight-loss program that will handle their specific needs and fit their lifestyles. The son of a Greek immigrant, Dr. Nick was known in San Diego as a big man with a big heart. Topping out at 467 pounds, he was a thirty-something, larger-than-life advocate for the poor who seemed like a jolly fat man. But when a battle with cancer inspired him to focus on his own health, he embarked on a lifestyle change that would drop him to a svelte 200 pounds. His book will inspire and equip readers to design their own weight-loss program around an "odyssey" that makes their heart sing and allows them to experience their own weight-loss miracle!, On March 31, 2001, after a year of planning, San Diego physician Nick Yphantides entered his favorite steakhouse to enjoy his last meal of solid food. Embarking on an ambitious yet creative weight-loss program, Dr. Nick had realized that losing the weight would be only half the journey. Shedding 220 pounds by Thanksgiving that year, Dr. Nick utilized his Seven Pillars of Weight Loss and Maintenance. These practical and realistic principles can help you create your own weight loss and fitness plan. If you, like Dr. Nick, are committed to doing something about your excess weight and to maintaining lifelong health, My Big Fat Greek Diet will inspire you to create your own program for a personal transformation. Book jacket., In My Big Fat Greek Diet, Dr. Nick Yphantides teaches readers the powerful 7 Pillars of Weight Loss, which features medically safe, practical how-tos anyone can apply, whether they need to lose 10 or 300 pounds.

    The book that was shown was not the book that I received. Nonetheless, when I informed the seller that it wasn't the item they advertised-/they were more than willing to make it right. Since they didn't have another copy of the title I was expecting, they promptly issued an apology; and refund full refund. I really appreciated the speed at which they were willing to make things right with this transaction. I will definitely not hesitate to do business with them again. Thank You!

    An old favourite of mine from many years ago, in the same high-quality edition I remember. Thanks to this outstanding Ebay vendor, it's now mine once again. The condition of the book was better than advertised, sold at a reasonable price, and appears nearly as new as what I bought 40 years ago. Add to that, the item being securely wrapped and speedily shipped, and I'm mightily impressed. I recommend this vendor wholeheartedly and without reservation. Thank you very much!
