There are moments in my weight loss journey where I knew what I was doing was wrong but there are so many more moments where I felt like everything I was doing was right. Since going through menopause I feel like I am doing that right now. I'm doing everything I've done in my past and nothing is working. Actually, I'm gaining and am the biggest I've ever been in my entire life at the writing of this review.
Naturally Thin by Jean Antonello was written for people like me; people who want better, want healthier, want this time to be the last time, and want to lose weight the right way.
From the moment I picked up this book I knew this was something different. Within the first few chapters I was saying, "Wow! That's me!" until it became redundant. You can tell from her writing that Ms. Antonello has been there and she knows what she's talking about. She discusses why our bodies are hard-wired to hold onto fat and where many diets have it all wrong. I love all of the stories included in the book from those that have been down this road before and their eventual victory. What they had to do to gain that weight loss freedom is very inspiring and encouraging!
My only complaint is that this book is a tad on the long side and the information, though helpful, can get a little repetitive, but this book is perfect when used as a reference or when you need motivation.
Naturally Thin is highly recommended for anyone who is done with yo-yo dieting, wanting to break the diet cycle, and is willing to put forth the effort to get onto the road to lasting health and weight loss. This book is not a magic pill or a plan that will have you losing 20 pounds in 24 hours, but it will instead help you break free from food addictions, off the diet mentality, and on to lasting weight loss and freedom, if you put what you read to practice.
