In `Fastest Way to Lose Weight', Stephen Williams offers more advice to those struggling to lose weight with other methods.  I actually found this book after reading another book by Williams that discussed the best exercises for weight loss, and although I like this one okay, I really enjoyed the one on exercise a little bit more.  However, that does not mean that this book is not good, in fact, it is one of the better weight loss guides available.  It offers friendly, practical tips, written in a way that is easy to understand, and the author does not condescend or make you feel `less than' for needing to read a book on losing weight, like some other of these books do.I love the approach the book takes, encouraging readers to work in easy little changes that add up to big weight loss.  I also like the fun tips that he uses, such as ways to increase activity in the bedroom to help aid in weight loss.  Of course, the more you lose, the better the sex will be, so that is a win/win situation, lol!  All of the advice is easy to follow, even a bit simplistic, but that is exactly what you need if you want weight loss that is easy to maintain.  After all, it's no good losing weight if you can't keep it off.Williams has a lot of other books on confidence and self-esteem, and a little of the advice from those spill over into this book.  Everyone knows that looking good will help you feel better about yourself, and this is also mentioned in this book.  I liked the writing style of the book; it was laid back but gave the advice in an easy to follow way, so you could pick and choose which tips to try first.  There's no need to stick to a rigid plan to lose the weight, and you can adapt the tips to fit your lifestyle.Like many women, I have always struggled with my weight.  I have often found the most success with the simplest plans that required baby steps to achieve.  If something is too complicated or expensive, I simply cannot stick with it!  This book is perfect for people like me, who need a gentle guidance instead of a strict plan of attack.  I've only just read through the book, but I think that these common sense tips will be just the thing to lose those stubborn pounds and keep them off for good.  I would definitely recommend getting the other book, `Best Exercise to Lose Weight' as a companion, since it offers some more great tips on working exercise into your life in easy ways.
