A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Foreword by John Robbins, author of the international bestseller Diet for A New America In this book, Susan Peirce Thompson, Ph.D. shares the groundbreaking weight-loss solution based on her highly acclaimed Bright Line Eating Boot Camps. Rooted in cutting-edge neuroscience, psychology, and biology, Bright Line Eating explains why people who are desperate to lose weight fail again and again: it’s because the brain blocks weight loss. Bright Line Eating (BLE) is a simple approach designed to reverse that process. By working with four "Bright Lines"—clear, unambiguous, boundaries—Susan Peirce Thompson shows us how to heal our brain and shift it into a mode where it is ready to shed pounds, release cravings, and stop sabotaging our weight loss goals.Best of all, it is a program that understands that willpower cannot be relied on, and sets us up to be successful anyway. Through the lens of Susan’s own moving story, and those of her Bright Lifers, you’ll discover firsthand why traditional diet and exercise plans have failed in the past. You’ll also learn about the role addictive susceptibility plays in your personal weight-loss journey, where cravings come from, how to rewire your brain so they disappear, and more. Susan guides you through the phases of Bright Line Eating—from weight loss to maintenance and beyond—and offers a dynamic food plan that will work for anyone, whether you’re vegan, gluten-free, paleo, or none of the above. Bright Line Eating frees us from the obesity cycle and introduces a radical plan for sustainable weight loss. It’s a game changer in a game that desperately needs changing.

One of the foremost researchers in human metabolism reveals surprising new science behind food and exercise. We burn 2,000 calories a day. And if we exercise and cut carbs, we'll lose more weight. Right? Wrong. In this paradigm-shifting book, Herman Pontzer reveals for the first time how human metabolism really works so that we can finally manage our weight and improve our health. Pontzer's groundbreaking studies with hunter-gatherer tribes show how exercise doesn't increase our metabolism. Instead, we burn calories within a very narrow range: nearly 3,000 calories per day, no matter our activity level. This was a brilliant evolutionary strategy to survive in times of famine. Now it seems to doom us to obesity. The good news is we can lose weight, but we need to cut calories. Refuting such weight-loss hype as paleo, keto, anti-gluten, anti-grain, and even vegan, Pontzer discusses how all diets succeed or fail: For shedding pounds, a calorie is a calorie. At the same time, we must exercise to keep our body systems and signals functioning optimally, even if it won't make us thinner. Hunter-gatherers like the Hadza move about five hours a day and remain remarkably healthy into old age. But elite athletes can push the body too far, burning calories faster than their bodies can take them in. It may be that the most spectacular athletic feats are the result not just of great training, but of an astonishingly efficient digestive system. Revealing, irreverent, and always entertaining, Pontzer has written a book that will change how you eat, move, and live.

Everything you've been told about nutrition is a lie. Eat less and move more. That is the message constantly being thrown at us each and every day. From nutritionists, to governments, to health professionals and the media, we are told that the only way we can lose weight is if we eat less calories than we burn off. The whole basis of modern nutrition is based around this seemingly irrefutable fact. That it all comes down to calories in vs calories out. There's only one problem with the whole calorie theory though. It is just plain wrong! In this controversial new book, Ben Minos explores the science on how your body really stores fat and what is the best way to go about losing it. You will finally discover which foods you should be eating to give you the lean and toned physique you have always been after and how you can actually eat more food to weigh less. It doesn't matter if your goal is to just drop a few unwanted kilo's, or to get the lean and toned look normally reserved for the front cover of a magazine. These universal principles of nutrition will outline how you can go about getting it, all the while giving your body the healthiest, most nutritionally optimised diet at the same time Above all else, you will find out why the experts have been wrong this whole time about nutrition and why your body has never cared or measures things in calories. Quite simply, you will learn why when it comes to losing fat, calories really don't count.

By reading this book, you are already taking the first step in the right direction! You have realized it may be time for a diet, but does a diet have to eliminate all the foods you love or inhibit all your social or family activities that often center around dinner, coffee, or drinks? Life can be complex, busy, and full of challenges that never get any easier. Weight gain also is part of aging and plays a big role in our physical and mental health; yet many of us don’t know where to turn to learn how to diet and exercise. But does a diet have to be that complex? This book provides a short and simple explanation on how and why the body stores fat, dispels misconceptions, and provides strategies for dieting and exercise. The Protein-To-Calorie Ratio (“PC Score”) provides an easy way for you to make healthy choices in your diet to more quickly reach your weight-loss goals. As a physician, I never imagined what a big role diet and nutrition would play in my medical practice, but it’s a topic that comes up with most of my patients, regardless of their presenting problem. That’s because diet and nutrition really can influence most disease states. Over the years, I have counseled my patients, family, friends, and colleagues on weight loss, but it wasn’t until I found myself needing to lose weight and searching for a diet that fit into my life and my family activities that motivated me to create a diet that was simple, flexible, AND effective! What was even more rewarding was sharing The PC Diet with my patients and receiving positive feedback. Most memorable, was seeing a 300+ pound man come in 6 months after I briefly discussed The PC Diet with him, have him pull down his suspenders, and pull his pants a good foot away from his belly and say, “Hey doc, I followed your diet, what do you think?” The PC Diet is designed to fit into your life, not a diet that controls your life. Let’s get to work, and all it takes is a quick read of this book. Now grab a copy of this book and replace 15 minutes of social media with something that can change your life! YOU’VE GOT THIS!!
