Product Description

Successful weight control isn't simply the result of any practical diet plan or exercise program--it's tied to the fact that regardless of the method they choose, people who doggedly persist in pursuing their goal to slim down are more likely to achieve it. The key is to survive the phases one goes through when losing weight. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

3.0 out of 5 stars Almost identical to the "9 truths about weight loss", September 15, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Weight Loss Through Persistence: Making Science Work for You (Paperback)
This book was the author's earlier venture into publishing for the public. Virtually all the anecdotes about patients and the information about weight control is available in his second book "The 9 Truths about Weight Loss".THAT book I would rate as a 4 1/2 star review for practical information and attitude readjustment guidance for dieters that will really unscramble their fantasies about the easy fix. I almost get the impression that his second book is the way the author decided to reach a newer and perhaps more receptive audience with the truths which have not changed in his experience.And,yes,he is a psychologist and a widely quoted source of research and up to date information in bariatric circles(bariatricians are weight loss physicians)and other weight loss guides(e.g. Anne Fletcher's "Thin For Life").Buy the "9 truths" instead and read his insights that are researched rather then the latest fad to hit the market and your wallet.You may not like the truths but many many people are going to find that book the only way to lose the weight and keep it off. The very fact that he can print two books that are so alike with a several year gap and can prove his facts with research shows that human biology has not changed no matter how you much you want it to.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Facts, June 6, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Weight Loss Through Persistence: Making Science Work for You (Paperback)
Dr. Kirschenbaum's enticing book simply delivers the facts about weight loss, not the contradictual jibber-jabber of know-it-all pseudogurus. This refreshing book delivers the facts, not the theories. Almost as good as Kirschenbaum's brand new book, "The 9 Truths About Weight Loss!" Both are essential reads!
