Publisher's summary

There are so many different weight loss gimmicks, tricks and programs and it's easy to get lost in the confusion. I became interested in researching different weight loss information because I needed it for myself. I used to be skinny and could eat anything I wanted without gaining a pound. Then that changed to the point of me struggling just to lose ten pounds. I realized that in a year's time, I had gained 60 pounds. Reality did not hit me until I stepped on a scale. It was heart wrenching. I felt so unattractive and loss confidence in myself. I tried workout plan after workout plan and nothing worked. Eventually, I finally found a way to lose weight. After trying so many different gimmicks, I finally found the right way.

A guys Perspective

Would you listen to How I Won My Weight Loss War again? Why?

I would, As a guy sometimes, we honestly feel like we don't need any help doing anything. Finally I stop pretending I know everything, and just let my pride go. So I purchased this book. I wasn't fond of weight loss books, but I have to say this book really did help me out at the end of the day. This book has given me a sense of control over my weight, Im a hefty guy, so it was time to get this weight under control. So far I'm happy about this new moment in my life!

Any additional comments?

I would recommend this book to everyone, but to the fellas who battle with weight more specially!
