I’ve been a fan of Adam for many years and couldn’t wait to read his most recent book which did not disappoint. I thought the only way to lose weight and get healthy was to not eat carbs, exercise A LOT, and hardly ever drink alcohol or eat dessert. How is that possible as a sandwich/hamburger lover with family who bakes and eats dessert with every meal while trying to keep up with two kids under 3 years old? Every day I’m falling off the wagon. Reading this book opened my eyes to a better way guilt-free for enjoying real food choices to meet my goals. I appreciate all the reassurance from Adam that eating dessert, eating takeout, and even the occasional alcoholic beverage can be enjoyed all while following the path to health and wellness. (I had no idea you could even ask restaurants to make something with less oil but Chinese takeout this week was great). Adam does a fantastic job simplifying both the science and psychology for why diets fail. Included in this book are sections covering mindset, nutrition ‘I will teach you to eat’ along with five tools to follow, takeout menus and how to eat at restaurants, recipes, progressive strength training and walking plan, etc. It’s a book worth reading over and over – highly recommend!“I am healthy and am still figuring out what works for me.” The first step is to actually believe you’re healthy and to believe in yourself – you can’t screw this up.
