Summary: I will read this over and over!
Comment: Over the last several years, I have kept stories of those who have lost a lot of weight in a healthy manner to give me inspiration in dealing with my own struggles. Now I don't have to! There are 145 short (1-2 page) stories told by people who have lost from 10 to 200+ pounds and how their lives have changed. This book's tone is that it's about wanting a healthier you over the long term and not about a quick fix. I loved the book, but only gave it 4 stars because I think that each of the stories could have been a little longer and maybe have included before and after pictures to really make the points hit home.

Summary: Great inspiration for anyone trying to lose weight!
Comment: If you are trying to lose weight and need some extra inspiration, this is the book for you. After watching the encouraging stories on Oprah, I picked up this book and proceeded to race through it. With so many people just like me offering their tips and advice, how could I not be encouraged to go after my weight-loss goal? I've lost 10 pounds in 2 months and have 20 more to go. I now re-read sections of the book several times a week, to help me stay inspired. I highly recommend this book!

Summary: A fun, motivational book in bite size morsels!
Comment: What I was looking for was something to motivate me to keep on with my diet and fitness program. When I sent for Anne Alexander's book, I was actually expecting to be disappointed, because so many diet books are very rigid, no matter what their title suggests! Not so with this book. It is packed with short, half page accounts of key things each person did to lose weight. It may have been taking a dance class for exercise, walking someone else's dog, joining a weight loss group, listening to books on tape, you name it. I found it exciting to see that there are so many different ways to accomplish the goal of weight loss. I feel like I have a pretty decent imagination, and that I've heard of, or even tried, just about everything, but this book had some really neat tips that I wouldn't have thought of. This is not an instructional book. It is a way to help you see that weight loss can work for YOU, as the individual you are. The people profiled were from all walks of life, and I am pretty sure just about every age bracket. I am really enjoying the short bites of information, and don't feel the need for pictures or long explanations. This is, I feel, primarily a motivational book, designed to jump start your brain so you can thing outside the box and see fitness and weightloss in a whole new way. I've been carting mine to the gym because it's perfect for my crosstraining routines.
