If you are looking for some magic pill, powders, or plan to help you lose weight, do not read this book. As a former President and Chairman of the Board of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians*, I have had the opportunity to help thousands of patients lose weight over the past 25 years in my medical bariatric practice. My treatment plan for successful weight loss and maintenance involves three very basic principles: modify your past behaviors, alter your food consumption, and increase your physical activity. Scientifically Slim clearly explains the importance of these three principles and goes on to outline numerous strategies that can be implemented to accomplish these lifestyle changes. Unlike most books written about obesity that are filled with fiction and not facts, Scientifically Slim provides the reader with the latest scientific research that validates the effectiveness of the strategies that it outlines. Also numerous practical examples and written worksheets are given to help integrate these principles into one's daily life. I can say with the utmost conviction if you want to embark upon a successful journey to lifelong health, Scientifically Slim guides you to the routes that enable you to reach your goal of being trimmer, fitter, and healthier.
