EVER FEEL LIKE YOU NEED A MIRACLE TO LOSE WEIGHT?Well, the miracle is here! You've seen Adele Puhn on The Gordon Elliott Show and Day & Date delivering the good news: You don't need willpower; you do need a program that is medically safe, is nutritionally sound, and promises astounding results by taking away your urge to overeat. That's The 5-Day Miracle Diet.Adele tells you exactly which foods to eat at what times, a simple plan that will regulate your blood sugar and keep it stable all day long. When you're in "good blood sugar," your cravings disappear--a process that takes just five days! And not only will you lose your cravings, you'll steadily melt away pounds while feeling more energized, mentally focused, and healthier than ever before. So toss out your food pyramids, low-fat cookies, and carbo-packed meals. And throw away words like willpower, motivation, and urges. Adele Puhn's program works with your body, not against it, to bring you fabulous results--the weight loss you've always wanted, easier than you ever dreamed possible.  "ADELE PUHN'S HIGH-ENERGY EATING REGIME WAS SIMPLE AND ENABLED ME TO SUSTAIN EIGHT PERFORMANCES OF HAMLET A WEEK."           --Ralph Fiennes Devilishly handsome actor Ralph Feinnes, who packed on pounds for his role in Schindler's List, followed this plan and said it helped him keep his energy level high enough to survive his grueling, eight-times-a-week performances of Hamlet. The word "diet" in the title may be a bit misleading, as it's more of a blood sugar-regulating eating schedule; once blood sugar is normalized, says author Adele Puhn, cravings soon dissipate, and that helps excess pounds fall off almost by themselves. It's not a five-day diet, either, as the title implies; rather, that's the amount of time it takes to get your blood sugar fully normalized. Puhn, who has a master's degree in medical biology and has been certified as a nutritional specialist by the American College of Nutrition, has 20 years of experience working with ...

Are you among the tens of thousands of people who have lost a dramatic amount of weight?  If so, congratulations! You did it! Those years of struggling and failed diets are behind you. Perhaps you did it through weight loss surgery. Or, perhaps it was through diet and exercise. Either way, you have created a new body and a new life for yourself.                 But, now that the weight is gone, are you left with extra skin? If so, it likely causes you embarrassment and perhaps hygiene problems as well. Fortunately, body contouring surgery can help restore a more natural look to your body.The authors of this book, respected plastic surgeons, have performed hundreds of body contouring procedures on weight loss patients, and they understand your concerns as you explore having reconstructive surgery. Among the questions they answer are:             •   How soon after surgery can I have excess skin be removed?            •   Which surgery should I have first?            •   How many surgeries can I have at one time?            •   Should I have a tummy tuck or a body lift?            •   Will I have much pain after contouring surgery?            •   Can my breasts be restored to normal?            •   Where will scars from the surgery be visible?            •   When can I return to work and resume physical activity?            •   What about fees? Will insurance pay? The book contains 136 color illustrations and photos, including dozens of "before & after" photos of surgery patients, as well as an appendix, resource section, glossary, and index.

The author of the top-selling Look Great Naked shows how to change the body's set point to achieve permanent weight loss. Nature deals everyone a certain body type based on an individual set point, which is the amount of fat the body strives to maintain at all times. While most diets promote weight loss for the short term, they fail to take into account each person's unique set point, making weight regain all but inevitable. The Look Great Naked Diet offers a permanent solution for changing genetic disposition, allowing everyone to enjoy lasting results. Renowned fitness and nutrition expert Brad Schoenfeld will show anyone how to redefine their physique with: * An individualized diet designed for each of the three body types, with seven-day menu plans * A balanced eating plan that includes healthy levels of protein, nutrient-dense carbohydrates, and essential fats * Delicious recipes from some of the world's top fitness personalities Eat the "right combination of the right amounts of the right foods" to attain a lean physique, promises personal trainer/women's-fitness expert Brad Schoenfeld in The Look Great Naked Diet. In this follow-up to Look Great Naked: Slim Down, Shape Up and Tone Your Trouble Zones in Just 15 Minutes a Day, Schoenfeld explains how to design a personalized diet program based on the balance of fat-carbohydrate-protein that is right for your body type. He emphasizes "nutrient-dense" (high nutrition and fiber value) carbs, lean protein calculated to your ideal weight, "good" dietary fat, and plenty of water. He covers eating out, supplements, a sample menu plan, and a one-week plan for looking your best for a special occasion. The 10 protein-heavy recipes, however, seem designed more to publicize their fitness model/bodybuilder contributors than to support the LGN principles. They include no nutritional breakdown (after stressing the importance of figuring out your protein-carb-fat intake), no calorie counts, nor even the number of servings (e.g., a pancake recipe includes two cups of oatm...
