Still Half My Size

My first book Half My Size: The Thinking Person’s Diet was published in 2005 and detailed how I’d shed in excess of 50 kilograms and keep it off for 10 years. Since then it’s been an on-going effort on my part to try and maintain my weight and remain ‘Half My Size’.

I share my steps to success in this new book and also the reasons behind the times when I didn’t succeed. Inside I’ve included key interviews and lots of exciting 21st Century scientific findings and discoveries that help explain so much more about weight management and why not all of it is within our control. But rest assured it can be. You’ll learn what foods can change the chemicals in our brain to make it extremely difficult, sometimes impossible, for us to summon the willpower needed to not overindulge and in turn, to not shed the kilos nor keep them off.

This book is not designed to get you to live like me. Quite the contrary! You will actually have more of a chance of succeeding if you do it your way. I examine why some of us overeat and what triggers overeating for me. We analyse your food fuel and what mix is best to keep your motor running at peak performance. Included are simple steps that can be put in place so you don’t have to deny yourself the things you enjoy. As well, I suggested some interesting ways to burn off your fuel intake so you look and feel good about yourself on both the inside and the outside
