My favorite part in this book was the beginning in chapter 2 about counting calories. I have been telling people for years that just worrying about the number of calories you are consuming is completely wrong and for most people dangerous!Too many people are fixated on their caloric intake, and always looking for ways to make it lower, as they believe through brain washing that lower calories = fat loss.This is backwards thinking. This is corporations ways of herding in more cattle.To put it as simple as possible, We all have a unique Basal Metabolic Rate. Trying to lower that BMR, just damages our metabolism. That is as simple as it gets there folks.This book is geared toward the every man or woman which I really like books like this. Many people don't understand the basics of living a healthy life, so I like to see basic simple to understand books that I think can motivate those who need it.Chapter 4 is good for those who need some motivation and a little bit of a template to follow in their day to day routine. The 12 steps are done in a way that people can hopefully have them sink into their heads, which is a good thing. Nothing confusing about this book.
