NEW BOOK ON SLIMMING THE EASY WAY

This is not a recipe book or a diet plan book. It is not a book about using a difficult and strict diet and exercise to lose weight and keep it off.

This book will give you a much easier way of doing both.

It will show you how to stop your cravings for unhealthy foods and make sure you eat the most nutritious foods in the correct amount to help you lose weight and improve your health.

Losing weight is not an easy thing to do. I realised in my twenties that the most sensible thing to do was not to put it on in the first place.

Many think this is not possible, but I have maintained my weight for all of my adult life, so I can testify that it is possible.

And you can use the same method I used, to maintain your weight or lose the extra weight you gained and to keep it off.

Let me show you how.
