The New Beverly Hills Diet Little Skinny Companion

Essential information in this pocket guide includes: the Golden Rules of the program; the 35-day diet list; corrective counterparts to remedy miscombined meals; food group classifications; and a mini Born-Again Skinny Daily Diary for charting weight loss progress.

This little book fits in a pocket or purse for inspiration and information while you follow the New Beverly Hills Diet. To help you stick to the 35-day weight-loss diet, author Judy Mazel offers tips, affirmations, and even songs for each of those 35 days. (Sing this one to the tune of "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing": "Thin is a many splendored thing! When your hipbones show, your cheeks will glow, and your heart will sing!") There are tidbits of information about meditation, yoga, fruit selection, and digestion. "Reading a Restaurant Menu Through the Eyes of a Born-Again Skinny" is a quick reference list of menu items for figuring out how to order a protein or carbohydrate meal in a restaurant without mixing the two. Mazel also includes pointers on sticking to your diet while attending a party, and interactive pages for you to list daily weight, favorite foods, your "proud sheet," what you hate about being fat, and "what's so great about being thin."
