Bhumika Does the book cater alike to both male and female readers?

Um… I’m guessing it does as last time I checked, both males and females eat and both males and females eat to excess. Strange question!

@ Nicole:

“Donâ€™t tend to put on weight at all. so I can eat all I want without feeling the guilt.

Probably best just to keep quiet.

Obesity- the great American bane. I have been genetically blessed. Don’t tend to put on weight at all. so I can eat all I want without feeling the guilt.

A friend of mine was recommending this book the other day and after this summary I might need to get it. As a fellow lover of food, itÂ´s a good thing to see the reasoning behind some reflex-eating we might be doing inadvertingly so as to be nicer to our bodies. Were you able to find it in Buenos Aires? (IÂ´m traveling to the US in a little over a month but I want to limit my book purchases to stuff i canÂ´t get here, otherwise, my suitcase is going to be seriously pissed off at me).

“It’ is much easier to eat less than to work out.” I’ve lost quite a bit of weight over the past 7 months, all from eating less. I wish I was working out more to tone up, stress relieve and just get healthier, but don’t. =(

People ask me what I’ve been doing. I’ve stopped snacking (for the most part), I eat when I’m hungry (which could mean not eating lunch until 4pm) and stop eating once I’m full. I hate that ‘Thanksgiving’ feeling of eating WAY too much! Save that for one day a year and not all the time! One meal usually makes 2, sometimes 3 meals for me.

I need to eat more fruits and vegetables. Especially fresh stuff. =)

Thanks for sharing this info. A lot of it’s common sense stuff, but we need to be reminded. Good for you running 3 times a week! Another marathon soon?
