From a Sunday Times best-selling author comes, Fat Man Sees His Balls Again.
Don't buy this book unless you seriously want to lose some weight. Which, statistically, you don't. You like the idea of losing weight but not the idea of going through what it takes to lose weight.
And definitely don't buy this book if you are easily offended as there is a bunch of bad language in it and my sense of humour is rather wicked. As befits an ex-firefighter from Yorkshire. This book is not for the faint hearted.
But if you buy it and apply the strategies I used to lose 5 stone in 5 months, it will change your life forever. I can promise you that.
You've just got to decide how badly you want it.
Synopsis
Most diet books lie.
They paint a picture of dieting nirvana where you will lose weight faster than Vanessa Feltz going off a cliff while still being able to eat chocolate for breakfast. The reality is very different than that.
David Thomas lost 5 stone 2lb in 5 months and 18 days. He didn't use a diet that worked with his blood type, body type or whether he was from a town with three vowels in it. He didn't use a personal trainer, have loads of physiotherapy or his food delivered in boxes to his door by pixies in the night.
What he did was understand that dieting is primarily a mental exercise. Get your head straight and everything else will follow. So to keep tabs on his progress and emotional state, he kept a diary, writing an entry in it every single day, at the time that it happened. This book is that diary.
What it reveals is an astonishing insight into what it takes to lose serious weight. The fabulous highs of buying smaller clothes and positive comments off other people. The dreadful lows of spooning jam out of a jar on the floor by the light of the fridge and putting his fingers down his throat.
It is brutally honest, viciously funny and very powerful.
Testimonial from a reader who lost four stone after reading David's diary
"Before I read your blog, I was 5 stone overweight and taking medication for diabetes. My health was not good and I knew I had to lose weight but couldn't get my head wrapped round it. Then I read your diary. It was mind blowing. It prepared me for what to expect and guess what, at various points along my personal weight loss journey, I experienced much of what you did. But knowing you had gone through it before was the difference between me sticking with it and giving up. I lost four stone and my life changed forever. I have more energy and am happier with the way I look. But even more importantly than that, the unbelievable has happened. I have totally come off all my medication for diabetes and am now in my third year clear by my doctor . This alone means I know I will live longer. David, I cannot thank you enough. You have given me my life back and for that, I will be forever grateful." Bob Battye
