Product Description:
For the first time in our history, scientists are uncovering astounding medical evidence about dieting -- and why so many of us struggle with our weight and the size of our waists. Now researchers are unraveling biological secrets about such things as why you crave chocolate or gorge at buffets or store so much fat.

Michael Roizen and Mehmet Oz, America's most trusted doctor team and authors of the bestselling YOU series, are now translating this cutting-edge information to help you shave inches off your waist. They're going to do it by giving you the best weapon against fat: knowledge. By understanding how your body's fat-storing and fat-burning systems work, you're going to learn how to crack the code on true and lifelong waist management.

Roizen and Oz will invigorate you with equal parts information, motivation, and change-your-life action to show you how your brain, stomach, hormones, muscles, heart, genetics, and stress levels all interact biologically to determine if your body is the size of a baseball bat or of a baseball stadium. In , Roizen and Oz will redefine what a healthy figure is, then take you through an under-the skin tour of the organs that influence your body's size and its health. You'll even be convinced that the key number to fixate on is not your weight, but your waist size, which best indicates the medical risks of storing too much fat.

Because the world has almost as many diet plans as it has e-mail spammers, you'd think that just about all of us would know everything there is to know about dieting, about fat, and about the reasons why our bellies have grown so large. YOU: On a Diet is much more than a diet plan or a series of instructions and guidelines or a faddish berries-only eating plan. It's a complete manual for waist management. It will show you how to achieve and maintain an ideal and healthy body size by providing a lexicon according to which any weight-loss system can be explained. YOU: On a Diet will serve as the operating system that facilitates future evolution in our dieting software. After you learn about the biology of your body and the biology and psychology of fat, you'll be given the YOU Diet and YOU Workout. Both are easy to learn, follow, and maintain. Following a two-week rebooting program will help you lose up to two inches from your waist right from the start.

With Roizen and Oz's signature accessibility, wit, and humor, YOU: On a Diet -- The Owner's Manual for Waist Management will revolutionize the way you think about yourself and the food you consume, so that you'll diet smart, not hard. Welcome to your body on a diet.

"Fat Chances: The Secret Story of What's in Your Belly" by Michael F. Roizen, MD, and Mehmet C. Oz, MD
Whether you're carrying a few extra pounds of fat on your thighs or a suitcase's worth in your belly, it's hard not to think about fat. You feel it when you walk, you roll on it when you sleep, and you curse it when you try to slide into last year's jeans. But while most of us are intimately familiar with how fat looks on the outside, we're not quite as familiar with how it works on the inside.

As we explain in YOU: On a Diet, we believe that to change your body, you need to know your body.

In the simplest form, everyone knows the formula for gaining weight. Daily buckets of ranch dip plus photo-album-sized hunks of cheesecake plus a life of couch-dwelling equals a very unfortunate conclusion: too-frequent popped buttons.

But many of us really don't know how fat works and how it works against us. Here's the inside story on the story of your insides.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Insulting, but worthwhile in spite of that.
This book has an incredible wealth of information that I found very helpful,and will likely put into use right away.
However, I felt intellectually assulted and personally insulted by the writing style. This author seems to think that the way to appeal to those struggling with weight is to compile a bunch of juvenile fat jokes and insert them where ever they will fit into this book. Comments such as "waist the size of Neptune" are just insulting on more than one level! I'm pretty certain ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellant Seller
The book arrived in excellant condition. Shipment fast. A pleasure to do business with sellers like this one. Thank You



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - TEDIOUS!
THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A REALLY GOOD 100 PAGE BOOK, INSTEAD IT WAS A TEDIOUS READ AT 300 PAGES. THE FIRST 170 PAGES WERE ABOUT THE ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF DIGESTION. SOME OF THIS WAS VERY INTERESTING AND RELATIVE BUT COULD HAVE BEEN CONDENSED INTO ABOUT 20 PAGES. I ALSO HAD TROUBLE WITH THE WRITING. ADDING SOME LIGHTHEARTED LEVITY TO AN OTHERWISE DRY SUBJECT IS A GOOD THING BUT THEY THREW A STUPID JOKE INTO EVERY PARAGRAPH. IT FELT INSULTING TO ME AFTER AWHILE. I REALLY ENJOY THEIR SHOWS ON OPRAH ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Solid Info, Great Delivery
If there is a diet out there, I've tried it. This is the most comprehensive and yet understandable diet book out there. Everyone is different, and this book takes that into account. It doesn't beat you up, but gives you the tools needed to work with your limitations, such as genetics, hormones, etc. Identifies causes of weight problems that I've never heard before. THE best diet book out there. And I have a huge bookcase full of diet books that didn't work.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Basics Here Are All You Need To Know
"You: On A Diet" was on the bestseller list for such a long time it catches one's curiosity. Books on the best-seller list for so long are probably good. If something is on the top-100 for a long, long, time, it's got to be useful if people are willing to spend their income to buy and read it.

After thumbing through "You: on a diet" in a big bookstore, I sat down on a stool and browsed (perused) it a little more, and caved in. I bought it, even though a lot of info on these health ... Read More
