Abridged Audiobook
SAME REPEAT INFORMATION IN EACH SEGMENT.DID NOT FIND MUCH INFORMATION USEFUL
I actually lent this to a girl at work because she has emotional triggers to eating. Finally, there is a book that tackles why you over eat, tracks it and THEN moves on to losing the weight. It really quizzes you on the why's of eating/exercising why you do or do not do them and helps you realize that you have the control to change things.
Although simple, Bob has outlined the foundation of the challenges for weight loss. No one needs to be a psychologist to realize that people have issues that get in the way of goals no matter what the goals are. This is the first information that I have read about setting a PACE, how to do it and recognizing the fears that might get in the way of becoming fit. With his experience of all of the excuses that people give for Not working out, he helps people realize that they are getting in the way of their own goals. Although he does not give suggestions of overcoming them, just recognizing that there is a real issue and the ‘how and when’ of training is enough to help anyone “get with the program”.
I am a registered dietitian and my opinion of this book is that Bob Greene is a personal trainer who wrote a book about exercising. He offers little nutritional advice and he focuses on exercising tremendously. He does little to help anyone overcome their emotional issues with eating. That would take a psychologist (with whom he should have consulted). He simplifies everything but there is not anything new that the average person does not know. Eat less and exercise more.
This book gives VERY basic information for people new to healthy living. I found it to be too simplistic and not worth the time.
