The Diet Trap

Let's face it. Dieting and the discovering the secret to loosing weight quickly is a top money making proposition in the world today. We all want to look good and be healthy. Many people have found out how to manipulate and fool the body into loosing weight and fat for a period of time. But we also know that our chances of keeping it off are slim to none. In Pam Smith's "The Diet Trap", she explores many of the popular quick methods to reach these goals and why they don't and won't work! As a registered dietician, Pam explains what it takes (eating, exercising,drinking water, rest) for our bodies to release its ability to function properly and rid itself of excess fat storage. It's not a gimmick, it's just the facts. It is not a quick fix, it is a new way of life. Anyone serious enough to face the facts and wants to truly take care of themselves should BUY THIS BOOK. Personally, I have succeeded so far in losing 20 pounds and am on my way to a new way of living after 43 years.

The Diet Trap-A God send

Hi! My name is Pam Chidester, and I am fifty (50) years old. I've been dieting most of my life. I purchased Pamela Smith's book "The Diet Trap" several months ago. It was truly a God-send for me. I know it has helped me and from the mail Pam get's on her website, I know it has helped countless others. I use it nearly everyday as a reference. I have most of Pam's books, and I know that she is trustworthy. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a lasting (not necessarily quick) answer to good health. Thanks and have a great day!!!

Helped Shed My Pregnancy Pounds!

The Diet Trap really helped me focus on the right way to lose weight after the birth of my little girl in January. Instead of going on a crash diet to lose those extra pregnancy pounds, I followed Pam's Smarth Weigh plan. Now I feel better about myself and even have more energy to help care for my new bundle of joy! Thank you Pam!

An absolute must read!

The Diet Trap is the best book I've seen in a long time! Pam Smith designed it for anyone who wants to take charge of their life and make changes to their nutritional and physical lifestyle - but do it the right way. She shows us the harm of cutting corners on fad diets, and instead helps readers incorporate healthy eating and exercise habits. She also stresses the importance of balancing the emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects; getting good rest; and reducing stress. It's a very common sense approach to living and losing weight!Every page is packed with clear and easy to read information. The book includes charts, menus, and even recipes to make for an easy read.If you or someone you know is battling weight or caught up in any of the fad diets - you need to get this book. I highly recommend it!

Finally!

This book examines all of todays popular diets and seperates the fact from fiction. The part-- How Fad Diets Make You Fat--scared me! What have I done to myself all of these years?
