About the Book

For the "slightly heavy" person trying to understand how to lose a few extra pounds or the morbidly obese individual who desperately needs to shed much extra weight, Goodrich provides a review of some of the better known and some of the less well understood facts of nutrition, anatomy, and physiology.

By providing sufficient background and without advocating one weight loss method or another, he suggests that body signals are frequently misinterpreted as "hunger," and are often responsible for the "obesity epidemic." Each of the twenty-three chapters is designed to stand alone.


About the Author

Never previously acknowledged, Goodrich theorizes that this misinterpretation is the underlying reason frequently given by obese patients (in private) for the statement, ?But Doctor, I don?t eat that much,? (since they only eat when they are hungry).
