Review

Rather than rigorous and inflexible procedures, WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION provides many different strategies so that people can best shape a program that will fit into their lives. Numerous real-life examples of effective strategies, including those that helped one of the authors maintain a large weight loss after years of turmoil and struggle, provide a rich base for people to develop their own effective programs.

But, make no mistake about it, WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION is not about yet another horrible diet to be followed for a few weeks and then abandoned. This wonderful book is all about doable, sustainable changes that will help you lose and then maintain weight-loss, and make your entire lifestyle healthful and enjoyable. --Professor Richard A. Winett, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24061

Product Description

Did you ever wonder how people really lose weight and keep it off?

Co-author Bradley Cailor always did. From 30 years of yo-yo dieting Brad had regained over 600 pounds of fat, but he always wondered why his diets failed.

WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION reveals what Brad learned from 30 years of experimenting with diet plans and pills, and from 25 years of researching weight-loss. His research included interviewing hundreds of successful, real-life dieters, and learning what worked for them.

Brad then applied what he had learned, shed 114 pounds of fat over one continuous stretch, and kept it all off. He then collaborated with Stuart McRobert the author of several books on exercise and health that are renowned for their sincerity, practicality, and trustworthiness. Together, Cailor and McRobert have written an extraordinary book on weight-loss.

You may want to lose just a few pounds, or perhaps you want to lose over 100 pounds. Once you apply this book s guidance you ll shed weight readily just like Brad and his hundreds of real-life dieters did.

For everyone who wants to lose weight regardless of age or gender the guidance in this inspirational book is complete, clear, practical, and effective. And it s comfortable and enjoyable to apply, and thus sustainable over the long-term to produce the required weight-loss and then keep it off.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book and Well Informed, December 26, 2009
By W. Chill (Cleveland, Ohio) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Weight Loss Salvation: How Real People Lose Weight and Keep It Off, and How You Will Too (Hardcover)
I have been a follower of Stuart McRobert and his books on weight training and fitness for years now. His "underground" appeal and almost cult-like following of fitness enthusiasts gives him the traction necessary to blow the lid off what is the "great sham" of the modern fitness industry. I got an advanced copy of Weight-Loss Salvation and I was at first curious about his teaming up with Bradley Cailor, a virtual unknown in the health and weight-loss industry as Stuart usually prefers to fly solo. But the result is a successful collaboration between the obscure Cailor and the iconic McRobert, as the book is simply incredible. McRobert and Cailor give a virtuoso performance by presenting down to earth facts and narrating the real life drama of how people can "really" lose weight. It also reveals the tragic scams that companies use to play on people's vulnerabilities to get them to spend money on worthless programs, supplements, and what Cailor calls "Snake Oils." Not only will the reader find out how to really lose weight, the reader will also learn why the weight-loss industry is a multi-billion dollar business. You won't find photos of models, Hollywood stars, nor other near-perfect people who never had a weight problem professing his principles or lauding the benefits of the program. This is a real-life, real-world manual on weight loss. His principles are grounded in science and spoken by someone who has been there. Cailor has been obese, and has shed the weight, but not after first trying and failing with the myriad of scams and ill-informed programs out there. Find out how he finally did it by reading the book. I myself do not have a weight problem, but as a health enthusiast and fellow published writer, I couldn't resist the pull of this book and I learned many new things myself.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE, REALISTIC, & UP-TO-DATE RESOURCE ON WEIGHT LOSS YET!!!, February 6, 2010

REVIEW OF WEIGHT LOSS SALVATION

AUTHORED BY STUART MCROBERT AND BRADLEY CAILOR

Reviewed by Al Chu

Because nearly two out of every three Americans are either obese or overweight, veteran health-and-fitness author Stuart McRobert decided to collaborate with a real-life, weight-loss success story -- Bradley Cailor -- who lost over 110 pounds of fat, and then comfortably kept it all off. Together, they have produced WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION.

Stuart has a reputation for reaching out to the real-world audience, while keeping his writing simple, easy to follow, and trustworthy. This approach makes his latest book appealing and practical for anyone who wants to lose weight. It's not just another diet book. This one is comprehensive and truthful, and it includes the psychological and physiological factors that make people fat, and explains how to combat them using a multi-faceted approach.

Here's just a sample of what this book covers: why most diets fail; medical conditions that cause weight gain; how to deal with food addiction; how to eat to lose weight both at home and on the road; sample meals that are tasty and easy to make; how to identify weight-loss scams; the myth of celebrity health experts; the truth about exercise; which exercises are best for losing weight (and how to perform them); how to make walking burn as many calories as running; how to make it easy to maintain your healthy weight; first-hand accounts of success from Bradley and other real-life dieters; and how Stuart stays lean.

I highly recommend this book as a must-read for anyone who is serious about losing weight.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST BOOK ON WEIGHT LOSS, February 2, 2010
By Chris (York, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Weight Loss Salvation: How Real People Lose Weight and Keep It Off, and How You Will Too (Hardcover)
WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION is a must read for those interested in losing weight
and keeping it off. But it is not a diet. A diet is something that is
restrictive, and short-term. Although people may lose a lot of weight while
on a diet, as soon as they go off of it and back to their old habits, the
weight comes back quickly.

The first part of WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION gives a real-life example of someone
who struggled with weight-loss for years by following many fad diets, only
to regain the weight, but then finally followed the guidance that is in
WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION and lost the weight for good.

Then the book discusses the psychological and physiological factors involved
in weight-loss. I found this to be one of the best parts of the books
because it made me realize why some foods are so addictive. The authors also
discuss how to watch out for scams that are misleading to customers, and why
before-and-after pictures should not be taken seriously. So called
before-and-after pictures can be taken on the SAME day by a good
photographer using a few photography tricks, and make the person concerned
appear drastically different even though no weight has been lost.

And then the book carefully explains PRECISELY what you should do to lose
weight and keep it off. By following the guidance in WEIGHT-LOSS SALVATION
you will learn how to lose weight and keep it off WITHOUT having to deprive
yourself of the foods that you love, and WITHOUT having to follow an
excessive exercise plan. The approach promoted in this book is practical,
realistic, enjoyable, and thus effective. I highly recommend it.
