(HealthNewsDigest.com) – Pittsburgh – Struggling with weight loss? Tired of magic bullets and empty promises? Confused about diets and looking for answers? In a weight loss marketplace filled with hyped claims, confusion and unrealistic expectations, a new book, titled “are you losing it? losing weight without losing your mind,” delivers straight talk about healthy weight loss strategies and offers a sensible approach to losing weight and keeping it off.
With contributions from four prominent weight loss experts, the book exposes myths and obstacles that discourage weight loss, gives practical advice on lifestyle and behavioral changes, provides low-fat menu ideas and offers physical activity tips. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Consumer Healthcare, the maker of alli™ — the only FDA-approved over-the-counter weight loss product approved for use by overweight adults – funded production of the new book.
“This book provides a much needed educational tool that takes you on a thoughtful journey about simple lifestyle changes that may deliver big health benefits,” says Gary Foster, Ph.D, contributing author, director for the Center for Obesity Research and Education and professor at Temple University. “People’s misperceptions about dieting and weight loss keep them in a vicious cycle of failure. Given the rising epidemic of overweight and obesity, it’s time we set the record straight. We need to talk honestly with people about how to successfully lose weight.”
