About this ebook

Lose up to 50 pounds in 12 weeks with a doctor's proven plan for losing weight-quickly, easily, and permanently. No counting, no measuring, no hassle.

If you have tried to lose weight and failed, or lost weight and failed to keep it off, you're not alone. Two out of three Americans are overweight, many with between thirty and one hundred pounds to lose. Now Dr. James W. Anderson, a professor of medicine and clinical nutrition at the University of Kentucky, shares his groundbreaking, scientifically based nutritional plan that has already helped thousands of Americans lose weight-sometimes more than one hundred pounds-and keep it off permanently. It can also help you:

  • Lower cholesterol, high blood pressure, and high blood sugar.
  • Reverse type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other obesity-related health conditions.
  • Decrease your risk for type 2 diabetes and its related consequences.
  • Eliminate the need for dangerous (and expensive) gastric bypass surgery.
  • Help you feel better about yourself and enjoy your life!

    Best of all, you can use prepared foods that are easy to find in the supermarket. There's no calorie counting. No measuring. No guesswork. And if you stick with this easy-to-follow plan-as thousands of people already have-there's a nearly foolproof guarantee of success. Lifelong success. Many people have changed their eating habits and improved their health by using this program. Now it's your turn.

The book and the study is wonderful. If you pay attention to the amount of protein, calories, and fat this allows you, all you have to do is change that to real food that you are able to eat, should you have allergies. There are also allergy free replacements bars and meals, probably not shakes. Many times in the book Dr. Anderson refers to persons who want to lose as low as 30 lbs. up to hundreds of lbs. I personally need to lose 45lbs. I have been diagnosed with hypothyroid and find losing weight, even with WW, very difficult. In the last six days, sticking completely to this very filling, easy diet plan, I have lost 6.4 lbs. I haven't even begun exercising yet. If you want to get rid of excuses, find a way to make this plan work for you. You can get $1 meals that fit the required criteria at WalMart and they are very tasty. (and I'm used to good old fashioned southern cooking)

It is like a DIY Nutrisystem for way cheaper, using easy to find shakes, frozen entrees, bars, soups, and produce from the store. He has Phase 1, Phase 2, and a maintenance diet as well.
