Publisher's Synopsis
Inspired and straightforward, Beat Obesity - You Can if You Think You Can by author and nurse practitioner Teresa W. Blanc shows readers how to properly assess their current weight and health status, then teaches them about the power of choice and how to lose the weight they need to.

Losing weight and maintaining weight loss is just that-a series of tough and rewarding choices, but if one thinks they can, they will make these tough and rewarding choices to lose weight and keep it off. This book provides a generous education on metabolism, hormones, sleep patterns, and taste buds, and how each relates to weight. With eleven chapters with titles such as "Digestion, Metabolism and Weight," "Proteins, Carbs and Cabbage Soup," and "Self-talk: Affirmations," good health and a good life become a matter of choice. Choose to win the weight war one battle at a time-the strategies for successful weight management are all here.
