All You Need is Love: From the New York Times best-selling author of The Sonoma Diet and the acclaimed medical director of 20/20 Lifestyles-one of the country's most successful weight loss clinics-comes the revolutionary plan that will forever change the way you feel about food, yourself, and how you look. "The program you'll discover in this book isn't like what you've seen in most diet books. The main reason: YOU come first. The answers to your dieting dilemma reside inside of you, not on the outside. So, that's where we will begin our journey together. And if there's a tiny voice inside your head right now saying,'But I'm not worth it,' it's even more important for you to follow this program-not only are you worth it, you deserve to be free from the prison of weight problems."- from the Introduction The secret to losing weight isn't HDL, LDL, or DNA. It's L-O-V-E. According to Connie Guttersen, R.D., Ph.D., and Mark Dedomenico, M.D., the common denominator in successful weight loss is love-loving yourself, loving your body, loving your overall health. Self-doubt and self-loathing, the enemies of self-love, are responsible for our dysfunctional relationships with food and our destructive health habits, which inevitably lead to poor nutrition, unwanted weight, and dangerously low self-esteem. Before you can feel good about your health, you have to feel good about yourself. And self-love, the simple notion of recognizing your own worth, is the first step is finding the waistline and life you deserve. Drawing on their revelatory research and the latest science on nutrition and weight loss, Dr. Guttersen and Dr. Dedomenico have developed an accessible, practical, and proven plan to transform your body, emotionally, mentally, and physically, from the inside out. They called it the Love Diet. Their remarkable plan includes: - 21 days of meal plans for breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner, based on ideal nutrient distribution and nutritional strategies for both men and women - Illustrated "power pairings" for feel-good meals and easy-to-manage portion control - Anti-inflammatory diet strategies to limit the metabolic syndromes of obesity - Low-glycemic meals specifically designed to optimize your body's blood sugar level, decrease cravings, improve energy, and promote weight loss - Micronutrient information related to the science behind the "gut-brain connection" The Love Diet combines good nutrition and positive reinforcement to deliver not only incredible and sustained weight loss, but a radical transformation of your mind, body, and soul.
