Overview

According to Jim Karas—the man who has helped countless people lose weight and literally reshape their lives—it’s none of the above! Nor is it your gender, your age, or any other reason you may have considered. The answer, says Jim, is that you still haven’t mentally “flipped the switch”—that is, reached the point where the desire to lose weight finally becomes more important than the desire to overeat and avoid exercise. The biggest hurdle you will ever face in losing weight isn’t sticking to a diet or going to the gym every day. It’s simply this: getting started.

More About This Book

Overview

According to Jim Karas—the man who has helped countless people lose weight and literally reshape their lives—it’s none of the above! Nor is it your gender, your age, or any other reason you may have considered. The answer, says Jim, is that you still haven’t mentally “flipped the switch”—that is, reached the point where the desire to lose weight finally becomes more important than the desire to overeat and avoid exercise. The biggest hurdle you will ever face in losing weight isn’t sticking to a diet or going to the gym every day. It’s simply this: getting started.

Now the creator of the number one New York Times bestselling book The Business Plan for the Body arms you with the tools that will help you turn your desire for weight loss into reality. Flip the Switch will show you how to:

• Blast through the excuses with a series of revealing self-tests that help you confront, understand, and ultimately overcome your issues of denial
• Slim down with a detailed set of eating guidelines, including a seven-day jump-start diet plan with menus and shopping lists
• Hack through the nonsense (“Only strenuous aerobics will slim me down”) and negative mental graffiti (“I hate my body”; “I’ll never lose weight”) that are holding you back
• Firm up with three quick and simple exercise routines

Jim’s eating and exercise recommendations are realistic and satisfying, especially when you begin to see the results! If you haven’t flipped the switch, then you haven’t taken the most essential step toward weight loss. Let Jim Karas’s Flip the Switch show you how to change your life—today.

    A Wonderful Book that Motivated Me!!

    This book is terrific! Karas gives no-nonsense advice and gives it to you straight! He explains how it is not so much the diets that are not working for those of us who have been struggling to lose weight. We fail because of a lack of focus and BELIEF IN OUR ABILITY to succeed. I truly appreciate his candor and I love the way he touches on the many many emotional aspects of weight problems. It is like he KNOWS my every thought! I would recommend this book to anyone who has tried the 'other diets' but has not succeeded. I would recommend this to anyone who is unhappy with his/her body right now. Karas will show you how to change your life, how to take control, how to stop blaming and stop making excuses. He offers sound nutritional advice with none of the silly fad stuff. He shows you an exercise plan that is EASY AND EFFECTIVE without hours at the gym. Most importantly,he speaks to the emotional side of your problem and does not claim he can fix you, but explains how YOU CAN FIX YOU! Tired of searching? This is your answer.
