THE LAST DIET BOOK YOU?LL EVER NEED
?
With so much conflicting weight-loss advice out there to confuse your efforts, it?s no wonder you haven?t been successful losing weight and keeping it off in the past. But with Bob Harper, superstar trainer and co-host of NBC?s hit show The Biggest Loser as your personal authority and coach, you can and will finally shed the pounds?whether you want to lose two or two hundred!
?
Distilling Bob?s vast knowledge of nutrition, weight-loss strategy, and human nature down to twenty simple, nonnegotiable principles, The Skinny Rules will help you step away from a reliance on processed foods and the need for so much sweet and salt and step into a newly thin lifestyle. And it couldn?t be more straightforward about what you need to do. For example:

Rule #12: Make one day a week a meatless day. Learn to use a few simple plant foods well, and this rule will keep you from succumbing to that notorious dieter?s trap: monotony.
Rule #18: Go to bed slightly hungry. Denied fuel for more than five hours, your body will start burning its own fat and sugar. Make a point not to eat after dinner and you?ll be burning fat while you?re sleeping.
Rule #20: Enjoy a splurge meal once a week. Unlike episodic bingeing, splurge meals are an ingredient in your diet. When you plan something, you are in control.

Taking the guesswork out of implementing The Skinny Rules, Bob offers a month?s worth of menu plans and delicious, rule-abiding recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks to keep you cooking and eating skinny for life. You?ll be happily a
