Everything Fat Loss

The Definitive No Bullsh*t Guide

This is NOT your typical weight loss book.

Weight loss books have historically been rife with misinformation. A conveyor belt of diet books pretending to have the latest revolutionary weight loss "hacks", trying to grab your attention with whatever weight loss diet is trending. What is the best diet for you? Is it keto, intermittent fasting, the 5:2 diet or one of the many rapid weight loss plans promising that you can all lose an astronomical amount of weight in a short space of time?

Do you know what doesn't make sense? Telling everyone to follow the same weight loss diet, period. Diets are not one size fits all. We are all different, and a diet plan that your friend is successful with might be a diet plan that doesn’t work for you. We are all individuals with different biology, preferences, and circumstances.

Here are some cold, hard facts:

• It is estimated that half of all adults are attempting to lose weight at least once per year.
• Losing fat is the most sought-after goal in the fitness industry.
• Despite the prevalence of diet attempts, global body weights have been trending upward for the last 50 years.
• Most people who start a weight loss diet only get short-term results and are not successful at keeping that weight off in the long run.
• Many of you feel confused by the huge amount of conflicting weight loss information and feel fed up with hopping from one diet to the next, constantly losing and regaining the same amount of weight.

Rather than pretending to have the universal solution for everyone, Everything Fat Loss comprehensively explains and summarizes what the research actually says about every major fat loss topic to help you formulate a plan that works for you.

No gimmicks. No overhyped marketing. No cookie-cutter diet plans. No false promises.

This is the ultimate scientific resource on fat loss, written to cut through the BS.

It is literally, everything you need to know about fat loss, compiled into one handy resource.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Incredible resource

I am a personal trainer who was looking for a resource to pass along to clients who wanted to dive deeper into fat loss and this most definitely is it. The book is informative, extensive and so enjoyable to read. I devoured it and even with a background in the fitness industry it still taught me a whole lot. Highly highly highly recommend.

Easy to understand and real data

There are so many biased and contradicting articles and research about nutrition. This book summarizes many of them and why that is. It helped me better understand what I need from my diet plan to make it work for me. 

Complete and easy to understand factual dietary health information

I had no idea how misinformed I have been for so many years regarding dietary health. I now feel empowered to make healthy decisions regarding food and exercise without guilt and disappointment.

Great content, but…

I normally love when writers narrate their own books because they will invest in the tonality and passion of their project. This content was fabulous, another narrator would have made this a 5-star across the board. The narration was too dry and I had to snap myself back into listening to it many times, because there is a lot of data and statistics. He’s British, so some of it may have been cultural norms and there was some translation to American English that I had to think about. Reading this may (or may not) have changed my review.

Great book

This book is comprehensive. As a fitness professional, that follows him on social media, I cannot tell you how valuable the info is that he puts out. This book is nothing less than top tier and should be read by all people looking to understand fat loss on a deeper level. Highly recommend.

Clears the confusion of fat loss!

There are so many aspects to fat loss that are obscured by social media and marketing, this book breaks each issue down in it's own chapter. It frustrates me that it has taken me this long to learn what I should focus on and what is just influencer nonsense or unhealthy behaviour. Honestly, this has helped clarify ALL the things I was unsure about.

I'm already recommending it to people when they tell me they are trying to lose weight...

The author's approach is straightforward, easy to understand and understanding that everyone is different and we can't be grouped by one rigid solution. Because of this book I am now equipped with the knowledge of assessing where I am, what I can improve on and focussing on my reason why I want to do this...

Best health book I have read

Wow where to start? I grew up in the 90s with disordered eating, super thin super models and unrealistic unhealthy weight loss ideas.
I have followed Ben for a while on social media and decided to get his book. Lots of information, science to back it up, and realistic ideas of how to use this knowledges in your everyday life without sacrificing your mental health and happiness for a few pounds.
I found the chapters on alcohol and sugar particularly helpful since there is so much misinformation about these these topics specifically.
No more fear mongering, just great science presented in an easily accessible and at times entertaining manner.
Also, Ben was a great narrator to listen to, highly reccomend. This is the only audio book I have ever taken the time to review but I think more people should have this knowledge.

A true goldmine of information

Having found and followed Ben on TikTok, feeling emboldened by his honesty and his empathy towards those who struggle with fat loss, I immediately jumped on the train when he decided to write a book. I was in the comments section begging him to narrate it for an audiobook. As one of the people in Ben’s DMs crying with desperation, and having no idea how to feel better in my body, I am so grateful to him for putting all of this information out into the world.

Amazing scientific study comparisons

It's refreshing to hear all the bullshit being called out in the health and fitness industry. Ben presents studies from over the decades and compares them in ways that are easy to understand. He gives insightful advice and puts a lot of emphasis and the importance of MENTAL health as well as being healthy instead of skinny. He is constantly encouraging your health versus unrealistic beauty standards that are being crammed down our throats as health.

Great book for anyone hoping for the truth about fat loss!

Ben Carpenter tells it like it is. Fat loss is a difficult topic to fully understand with so many nuances that it is impossible to have a one size fits all program for those looking to lose fat (which Ben wonderfully points out is different from weight loss). He is knowledgeable and informative with lots of good information that is backed up by scientific research papers. He also is very clear about making sure that the reader understands the pitfalls of certain strategies and even advises that fat loss might not be right for everyone. He has quite a pleasant speaking voice so it was wonderful to have his company while on my commute to work each day. I definitely recommend this book as well as following him on social media. He keeps it real, debunks the myths that others are trying to sell you and overall really wants what is best for you as an individual. Thanks Ben for your hard work on this book!
