If you are looking for a feel good book, something designed to turn you into a fat loss cheerleader - this isn't your book.  This book is about the SCIENCE of fat loss.  I would strongly suggest that you read this book, if you have decided to lose fat, and get fit, if you are the kind of person who does better, when they understand what's going on behind the scenes - or under the hood.And let's face it, we've all done fad diets, and extreme exercise programs and those don't work.  Often it's because they can't be sustained, and they are based on junk science.Learning how the body actually stores and loses fat, is one of the strong suits of this book.  Another is a detailed explanation of what kinds of exercise might be best for you.  And it's probably not what you think.In summary, get this book if you want to approach fat loss with a more scientific approach, instead of being a fat loss cheerleader or tony robbins nut.  Understanding the dynamics behind weight loss and weight gain can't help but help you be more effective.  And act upon what you learn, that is what matters most.Note:  I was certified by my local YMCA 25 years ago, as a fitness trainer.  If you are planning on working with a fitness trainer - a real trainer - not just someone who will force you to do one more rep, this book will help you understand how they are trying to help you get fit.  That is one reason why I purchased it, because I know if it is affiliated in anyway with a YMCA or YWCA organization, it is solid.  Thank you.
