Publisher's Summary

Learn the unique method that has helped thousands to successfully lose weight and control their weight since its first publication in 2009. Here, you'll learn how to achieve permanent weight loss with methods that are spreading all over the world, heralded by doctors as "revolutionary", "better than medications or weight loss surgery", "profoundly practical" and "better than any other systematic approach", and described by clients as "a miracle". However, if you are looking for a way to avoid the reality that we have to eat less to lose weight permanently or a way to fool the unchangeable laws of the physical sciences, you'll have to give that up. Rather than learning how to lose weight without changing yourself, it teaches you the psychotherapeutic methods to master self-change and solve your weight problem for good. The Anderson Method was developed by Licensed Behavior Therapist William Anderson, who had been an overweight dieting failure for 25 years before he found this answer and lost 140 pounds permanently. He has maintained an ideal 180 pounds for 30 years now. He has helped thousands to succeed with permanent weight loss in his private practice and network of therapists, and now, with this book, tens of thousands more have succeeded by applying what they've learned at home, with this easy-to-hear self-help book, now also available as an audiobook. 

"Bill Anderson is a wonder. He summarizes and clarifies diet issues so clearly and well. Anyone serious about health and weight management needs to read The Anderson Method." (Allen E. Ivey, EdD, ABPP, distinguished professor (emeritus), University of Massachusetts, Amherst; courtesy professor, University of South Florida, Tampa)

"Revolutionary. The Anderson Method is a profoundly practical book. If you need to lose significant weight, I highly recommend this book." (Robert Pretlow, MD, pediatrician; obesity researcher, Childhood Obesity News)

"I have seen more weight loss and lasting success in patients using The Anderson Method than with any other treatment. It is far superior to medications, diets or surgery - an entirely different approach." (Mark Lupo, MD, president, Academy of Clinical Thyroidologists)

Critic Reviews

"Well written and easy to read, it shows us a new way to understand and beat obesity by someone who has done it and proven he can teach others...It has the potential to make lives better, to help reverse the obesity epidemic, and make the world a better place for all of us." (Waldo Proffitt, columnist and editor emeritus, Herald-Tribune Media Group)

Best book and method on losing weight and keeping it off, ever!

Years ago I learned of the book and read it. It is by far the best book of its kind and explains the reality of working to lose and maintain the loss of excess weight. I was working the method with success and got into a near fatal accident. Upon recovering I gained even more weight, and went to a specialist for nutrition and weight loss at a top medical center to realize I just needed to cut calories so I'm back doing the Anderson Method. I bought this audiobook to keep me on track. I'm happy to say I've lost 28 pounds in several months, finally, and still going, as I have quite a lot to lose. Thank you so much for your book, your method, and your work. If you do the work, it works!

I've lost 92 pounds (so far) with this book!

I'm 33 and I've been obese my entire life and never really knew exactly what to do to fix it. I knew about nutrition and that I should eat better, but I always fell back on my old habits. Now I'm 92 pounds lighter and no longer obese!

This method teaches you how to change your habits to eat the foods you love in a healthy manner. In fact, you have to eat foods you love to succeed at changing your habits. It's surprisingly easy, because you like what you're eating!

People are always worried that I won't be able to eat pizza, cake, or ice cream. My response is always the same: "I can eat whatever I want."

This book will change your life.

Excellent

Best book I’ve read on losing weight, how to do it, and addressing the emotional stuff. This is a ‘no BS’, nutshell. My hardest thing is the emotional issues and feeling like I am doing it right or wrong, and it being an overload to think I can lose weight. I needed his clear, no nonsense direction. Helped me get the right perspective and let go of the perfection and get the right mindset.

Healing- Body, Mind, and Soul

If your looking for more than aesthetic weight loss then this is the book for you. If you feel like your weight is just the cherry on the top of your life of problems and mental health issues then this is the book for you. Highly recommend.

Slow Reading, Unrealistic Starvation Diet

The author reads so slow and it was hard to focus with his monotone voice. The diet is not realistic and is just another starvation diet.

Good listening

what a relaxing voice the author has, able to listen til the end and making a fresh begining

Great book!

Very informative and great help for understanding obesity as a psychological problem instead of a sign of weak will. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to lose weight!
Nicely read also!
