What a refreshing outlook! Steven Jonas, M.D., and fitness journalist Linda Konner assert that you can get fit and healthy whatever your size. Just the Weigh You Are affirms that whether or not you are genetically able to get slim, you can get healthy and feel good about your body. "You may stop dieting now," say Jonas and Konner. According to the authors, weight is only one of the factors that determine your overall health, and the other risk factors are easier to handle and to control. The book includes profiles of fit, healthy role models who happen to weigh 200, 250, 300 pounds, or more. All work out daily, have normal blood pressure and low cholesterol, and live fulfilling lives.

Just the Weigh You Are presents clear, friendly, and motivating information about health-risk evaluation, nutrition ("eating for health"), exercise, and stress reduction, with checklists that personalize the information. The goal is to make changes to increase health while shedding the "get thin" attitude. Once the pressure to slim down is lifted, you may find you enjoy healthy eating and exercise much more. If you've tried unsuccessfully to lose weight, you'll find this book wonderfully affirming, freeing, and enlightening. --Joan Price

Product Description
Now in paperback, the first book of its kind written by a medical doctor, this total fitness guide is for anyone who finds it too difficult to lose weight but still wants to be healthy. North America is in the midst of a backlash against dieting, and many physicians have begun to realize that it is more important to concentrate on total health than solely on weight control. In Just the Weigh You Are, a doctor and a leading nutrition writer guide readers in finding balance in their lives by showing them the path to a healthful lifestyle, regardless of their weight.
