You will never diet again.

Say goodbye to calorie counting, restrictive food bans, or other forced behaviors. In Mini Habits for Weight Loss, you will learn how to lose weight naturally in the precise way your body and brain are meant to change.

We've blamed ourselves for lack of discipline. That didn't help.

We've blamed calories, carbs, and fat. That didn't help.

We've blamed our diet formulas. That didn't help.

It's time we looked at the practice of dieting.

Nearly all diets are ineffective because they're based on dieting. Every person has a diet (noun), but it's only if you are trying to lose weight that you diet (verb). Dieting is eating and drinking sparingly or selectively to reduce your weight.

It doesn't work. If you've tried dieting, you know that.

Even the "perfect diet" with the right foods will fail if it's approached from the traditional dieting perspective. Since weight loss experts are more concerned with biology than neuroscience, we get brilliant discussions on nutrition followed by the same dumb suggestion to "immediately start eating completely different foods than the ones you're habitually used to eating, and give up everything else."

Are you fighting your own body and brain?

The brain resists dramatic behavioral shifts. Recognizing this and developing a strategy around it made the original Mini Habits the number-one selling self-help book in a number of countries. In Mini Habits for Weight Loss, you'll see that we also biologically resist such changes, which explains why most dieters and smoothie-cleanse aficionados lose weight in the short term, only to gain it all back (and more) when the body adjusts.

Title: A Convincing Pep Talk: Effective Strategies to Incorporate Healthy Habits into Daily Life Easily!
Review: "Fat loss is a side effect of living healthier." ~ pg. 153I have a diet saboteur in my house! Often this person will bring home six donuts or bags of candy and leave them on the counter. I myself have been known to buy candy on occasion and hide it from this person because they will eat it all up and I think of sugar as a treat for good behavior. I also sometimes get in the mood to make 24 cupcakes but I give 99% of them away. Usually I have one or two and that is about it. I just really love baking!So between me and this person we are causing ourselves ill health because of ingesting some of the wrong foods. What to do? I figured reading a book on developing good habits couldn't hurt! I was right. This book has a lot of helpful tips and tricks to make healthy living much more easy and not as challenging.One of the best sentences in the book is this:"The home eating waris won and lost in the grocery store."I figured this out years ago actually. I knew if I bought it, I'd eat it so I stopped buying sugary chocolates on impulse and started ordering stevia sweetened chocolate from amazon. That alone cut down a lot of sugar cravings because I wasn't feeding the addiction.Some of the things I'm going to do more after reading this book is freezing bananas because they really do taste like ice cream. After considering further I do remember I lost some weight drinking green tea so maybe I should go back to that habit!What kind of questions does this author answer? Well a lot of good ones!Why is dieting only going to make you gain more weight?Why does your brain need to change before your body will follow?What can you control and what should you let slide?What is the best exercise to lose weight?What foods are best to eat on a regular basis? (Do more research on brown rice before you go for it!)Is fruit bad for weight loss or just the opposite?What is the real reason people gain weight in the abdominal area?What I noticed about this book is the author's sense of humor. He made me lol several times and be amused quite a bit. Just thinking of him doing his mini habits was funny.One thing the author didn't say was that when you go to a restaurant you should put half the food they bring you in a to-go box right away. This helps with the decision to eat all your food on your plate. If there is only half the food there, bingo!This book made me hungry for cucumber slices dipped in hummus, spaghetti squash with pesto and fruit-infused water. Basically it made me want to eat healthier because it all sounded so delicious. This book is inspiring me to buy more fruits and vegetables.In the section on exercise and fitness the author does mention guided meditation but that is a whole other thing and if you don't want to get caught up in changing your religion, look for non religious meditation and yoga. Sometimes I love just watching DVDs of ocean waves breaking on the shore. That can make me quite sleepy and ready for bed.However, since I've been using a slow cooker a lot lately I'd say preparation times are more like 20-30 minutes not one minute! Unless you have all the vegetables cut up for your lentil soup it is going to take 30 minutes to put it all in the slow cooker. But hey, once that is done you are free for five hours to exercise and read a book. The author may not have come across kosher hot dogs either. I buy those. He seems to think all hot dogs are the worst. I agree I only eat the special kosher ones.So this book is mostly about easy does it. Make changes slowly and make them into habits that you will do automatically and eventually your body will just start changing on its own and you will have less to think about.So on my next shopping trip I'm going to remember the lettuce because I really like making salads and I've gotten out of practice in the past few weeks. Habits can come and go and when you have one that is working write it down so you don't forget to do it. I will go write "lettuce" down on my shopping list. Having a running list is essential for success.It is good to know that this book has advice that I can accept 99% of the time. I think however if I'm putting on my gym shoes I'm going to do more than one minute on the treadmill. Or better yet just jump on my trampoline for ten minutes without shoes on. I have no problem doing exercise once I start doing it and I think that is the point of the book and methods. Usually my problem is that I have a thought: "should I exercise right now" and I put it off thinking "I'll have more energy later." Then comes ten at night and I'm sleepy.So this is a convincing and inspirational pep talk about getting healthier with small changes in your eating and exercising habits. Reading this book seriously with a highlighter in hand will clue you into all the most important stuff for your lifestyle. Then it is a matter of writing a shopping list and putting a post it note where you can see it to do your mini habits. That is about it...easy peasy!To your success,~The Rebecca ReviewP.S. Another book I really love is called: "You Deserve it!" by Josh Wagner. It taught me to have more self-esteem so I could feel OK having more good things in my life like losing weight or changing a habit for the better. It really does get right down to how you really feel about yourself. So if you are looking to go up in the world and have an even better lifestyle, then his book may help get you moving in that direction.

Title: Life Changer
Review: I will begin this review by saying that this is the best weight loss book that I have ever read. It has changed my perspective on my weight loss journey. The overall concept of the book is to take small steps as small steps lead to lasting change. I am really overweight and because of my size, I have had some mobility issues for some time. To make matters worse, I was in a car accident over a year ago resulting in a broken knee and have had a really hard time bouncing back to even my pre-accident activity level. I didn’t think I would ever be able to exercise again. The author of this book talks about how he started out by doing just one push up. I started about a month ago just working on what movements I could do to start an exercise program. I started out by just doing some very light movements for 10 minutes each day. I have increased my activity level a little more each week. I am not up to about 30 minutes of exercise each day and I have lost 13 pounds. This book is very inspirational. Granted, the purpose of the book is to help with weight loss but, honestly, the philosophy could be applied to any aspect of life that you want to improve. I wish I could give it a higher rating than just five stars.

Title: Generally great tips
Review: This was a fast and enjoyable read. I agree with the majority of what Stephen said about nutrition, but I felt that for this type of book he gave too much nutrition advice given he is not a nutrition expert. I especially disliked that he said that eating a vegan or vegetarian diet is not sustainable and then said that if you already are vegan or vegetarian you could "do much worse". Eating a Whole Foods plant-based diet is one of the ways I actually maintain vibrant health and a healthy weight, and although it may not be desirable for everyone it is an evidence-based healthful way of eating.I think the mini habits idea is a great one that could help a lot of people accomplish all sorts of goals.Overall I would recommend this book for the practical advice about habits, but would caution about the nutrition advice.

Review: The book is a very light reading and the Mini habits methods are really interesting. I've finished the book within a couple of days and already started implementing new mini habits in to my daily life. I've only read this book and I didn't felt the need to read his first book, the mini habits applied to a better health are explained in this book.

Review: I went looking for a way to make weight loss easier and more sustainable. I knew that dieting was over. There had to be a better way.And I found this book and it made sense to me.I could finally work with my neuroscience and not against it. The principles in this book will be with me forever. Learning mini habits has made everything easier. I can adopt a new habit so much better now and sustain it.
