''If you lose weight quickly, you're more likely to gain it back.''
'''Eating near bedtime creates more fat.''
''Diets of 1,000 calories or less are unsafe.''
''Nutritional nonsense!'' declares Dr. Sanford Siegal in Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet Book. He debunks these and other myths that he says are propagated by ivory tower researchers, nutritionists, and even some of his fellow physicians who have never helped an actual overweight person lose weight. Drawing on fifty years of experience exclusively treating overweight patients, Dr. Siegal presents anecdotal evidence gathered from more than 500,000 patients to support the concepts underlying his venerable Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet weight-loss approach and hunger-controlling cookie.
This book is must reading for anyone who follows the Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet weight-loss program or is considering doing so. Dr. Siegal, known to generations as the ''Cookie Doctor,'' provides real-world advice and practical tools that will help you set and reach your goal weight and, for the first time in the history of dieting, customize your diet in order to reach your goal weight by a specific date such as a reunion, vacation, or wedding.
