Perhaps you have been on a diet before ‑- likely several different kinds and with a varied mix of results. It's also likely that you know a lot about dieting and are familiar with many different diets. Since you're reading this book, I'm assuming that none of those diets worked for you, at least not in the long term. There may have been a good reason why they didn't work. For a diet to be successful, it has to offer the right tools.

No matter how many times we say, "I'll start counting calories tomorrow," "I won't eat anything sweet," or "I'll never touch bread again," we're doomed to fail because we aren't using an approach that will enable us to eat sensibly and lose weight.

The Bread for Life Diet provides the right tools with a practical, easy-to-follow menu that offers great-tasting foods and doesn't leave you hungry. Unbelievable as it may sound, The Bread for Life Diet helps stop the craving for sweets that can add too many calories to your daily total. In other words, this diet is proof that it is possible to overcome the challenges of weight loss while loving every minute!
