Cutting a Finer Figure is a refreshing change from the myriad of weight loss and diet books out there. Instead of focusing on the latest diet fads to lose weight, it focuses on sensible, down-to-earth actionable steps that anyone can take to begin losing weight in a 'sustainable' manner.Most diets don't work because they demand too much from us - we need to change ur eating habits, the types of food we eat, count the calories, etc. They ask us to make lots of changes to our lifestyle which can be overwhelming and frankly, quite impossible to maintain. We may lose weight a for while, but most people put the weight back on after a while.A much better way, as advocated by this excellent weight loss book is a shift in our mindset - how we view weight loss and healthy lifestyle. It provides simple, yet actionable steps that we can easily follow each day - things such as eating mindfully and chewing slowly, e.g. taking at least 20 minutes to eat your meal because it takes about 20minutes for the brain to signal to you that you've had enough. This will prevent accidental over-eating.The book ends with a 12 week kick-start plan for healthy eating and exercise which anyone can follow. I highly recommend this easy and practical book on weight loss.
