5.0 out of 5 stars At long last!!!, 14 Jan 2004

By

Mrs. T. L. Woodward "tina141267" (Cheshire England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Ultimate Weight Solution: The 7 Keys to Weight Loss Freedom (Hardcover)

A book that truly lives up to it's title!!! At long last, an author who really understands that most failed dieters don't need information about what to eat, they need help to understand their relationship with food and identify their own personal formula for success. Dr Phil really focuses on helping us to understand why we inappropriately "medicate" and "celebrate" with food, and his straightforward "no frills" approach really hits the mark - you will truly find yourself able to appreciate healthy food, and not feel deprived in avoiding the foods and behaviours which are keeping you fat. I could not put this book down, and cannot enthuse highly enough about it - it really is an absolute must for all Dr Phil fans, and anyone who appreciates that weight control has far more to do with your mind than your plate!!! As Dr Phil always says - "you cannot change what you dont acknowledge" After reading this book, you will truly understand your own reasons for overeating and have the tools to change your life forever!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth its weight., 10 Sep 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The Ultimate Weight Solution: The 7 Keys to Weight Loss Freedom (Hardcover)

I have always liked Dr. Phil's approach to things and was very excited to see what he had to say about the subject of weight loss. Needless to say, I was very pleased with the book. Without going into a lot of detail, the forte of this book is its emphasis on the often neglected behavioral strategies needed to lose weight. We all know to stop eating so much, but this book makes you think about such things as enlisting a circle of support and eating for emotional reasons. All in all its a great book and I give it 5 stars easy. Other self-help books I liked that overweight people might benefit from include "Treat Your Own Knees." Cheers!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lost 16lbs and still loosing!, 14 Jun 2005

By

louise bazzard (den haag, Netherlands) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Ultimate Weight Solution: The 7 Keys to Weight Loss Freedom (Hardcover)

This is a great book. I have tried to diet before and always failed or sabotaged myself. I read this book and it's changed my whole attitude. It works but you have to do the tests and write down your answers just as Dr Phill suggests. I've been doing this plan for 8 weeks now and I do get bad days so it's great to go back and re-read what I've written. As my title says, I've lost 1stone 2lbs and still going strong. I've always had problems with motivation and visualisation and all the other "tions" buzz words that are rife in trying to achieve weight loss. What I found with this book was that it gave me the tools to achieve my goals without any buzz words or fads or unrealistic promises. He helped me get real and if you give this book a chance and follow his suggestions it can work for you.
