Overweight and obesity have become the scourge of the 21st century. We produce more food than we can eat, and, thereby consume more calories than we can burn. Therein lies the dilemma of the current pandemic of overweight and obesity. Lack of exercise or physical activities adds further dimension to this complex equation.That is why this author has devoted time and space to show how an apparently insoluble and complex problem can quite easily be unravelled, untangled and solved to your satisfaction by adopting the methods in this book.What makes it even more interesting is that you don't have to change your diet to achieve permanent weight loss. Many dieters are put off by the bland tasteless fad diets which they endure for a short while but easily abandon because they are unpalatable, insipid, boring and expensive. The result is that such diets hardly ever provide the ultimate answer to overweight and obesity: permanent weight loss. Backed up by medical evidence and research this author has listed commonly consumed and very cheap food/drinks with zero or near zero calories which will surprise readers of this book. There are also nearly 40 pages of normal everyday diet/food/drinks which with a few inconsequential tweaks in quantity and calories provide the ultimate answer to permanent weight loss which becomes obvious within days. It may surprise you to note that your normal diet using the methods in this book provides the solution: permanent weight loss; that is what you have been waiting for. The methods are subtle and hardly noticeable. There are 32 stunning coloured photographs. To this end, dieters have been subdivided into 3 categories based on BMI as follows: Informal (flexible dieters) with BMI of 25-26;Formal dieters BMI of 27-30;Super formal dieters with BMI above 30.Your dieting is backed up by the utilisation of Dr. Kidds' 40 Bullet points: Informal Dieters only need to apply about 5-8 of the bullet points; formal dieters about 6-10 points and super formal dieters about 8-12 of the points. By so doing, your weight loss should be evident within days and remain so permanently.Dieters who for medical reasons require urgency in weight loss, have the option of medication or surgery. Super formal dieters with co morbidities and/or family history of type 2 diabetes, severe hypertension or cardiovascular disease can usually be considered for surgical intervention with up to 70 % reduction in excess weight.
