5.0 out of 5 stars This is the one and only way to loose and keep healthy weight, May 26, 2009

By	Pinaki Datta "Pinaki Datta" (PA, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

There are so many weight loss methods available in the market. Inspite of them I always believed there is no substitute for a balanced diet. I did not know properly about portion size, food pyramid, how to shop healthy and so many different things. But this particular DVD is so simple to understand and follow I felt as if I found the magic wand to loose weight. I honestly believe there is no shortcut to weight loss and maintaining healthy weight. This DVD taught me to imbibe healthy lifestyle as a part of my everyday life. I lost weight couple of times and gained back but this time I am confident I will be able to maintain and retain my healthy weight throughout my life.

As purchaser of DVDs for a public library, I look for quality. The Mayo Clinic name means this wellness series will provide good information for our patrons.
