{"product_id":"9781469111162","title":"The Skinny on Weight Loss:: One Woman's Journey to Fat and Back","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis honest memoir of the narrator´s 100 lb. weight loss success departs from the typical food-focused diet book. Part autobiographical, part essay, sometimes a rant, it simply and clearly explains the science that effects body weight, and offers compelling reasons to get off the excess. Rather than sales pitches for exotic diet supplements, exercise contraptions or seldom used tapes, it gives tried and true strategies to stop overeating, served up with generous helpings of inspiration. It´s an easy read with humorous moments and is filled with insights for choosing and using the foods you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  WHAT OTHERS WROTE: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This is not your ordinary weight loss book.
