Weight Loss After Menopause: How I Lost 75 Lbs By Changing The Way I Eat And Think About Food

I am an expert on weight loss. No, I do not have a degree in nutrition, nor am I in a health care profession. That doesn’t mean I’m not an expert in the field.

My expertise comes not from a book, but from personal experience. After lengthy calculation, I figure I’ve lost something like 500 pounds over the last thirty years. Unfortunately, those losses were incremental: lose 20 pounds, gain 25, lose 25 pounds, gain 30, and so on.

After all those years of diet, lose, stop dieting and regain, I was post-menopausal, wearing size 3X clothes, got out of breath climbing the porch steps, and had resigned myself to being an old, fat, white woman. After all, according to some weight loss mavens, we should follow the diets of our ancestors in order to drop pounds successfully. I am descended from a long line of Irish, German and Polish peasants, all of whom were built just like me. Then I discovered what I'm about to teach you in this book.
