We are Steve and Caroline. Between the two of us, we lost fifteen stone and we have kept it off for several years. This book tells you how we did it, and it will help you to achieve something similar. It is for people who want to lose weight, but are particularly interested in keeping that weight off forever. It is based on the idea that long-term maintenance of a healthy weight depends on losing weight in the right way. We do not push exciting and exotic new miracle diets – diets that, somehow, the entire medical establishment has been too stupid to notice until now! Instead, we explain clearly
how to lose weight, and how to keep it off, using simple, non-fad techniques. Whatever your dieting history, wherever you currently are on the cycle of weight loss/weight gain/repeat, this book can help you.
