What’s it about?
Fad diets do not work—fact.
According to Brian Wansink, author of Mindless Eating, the twenty-first century will be the century to herald the behavioral change required to bring about a shift in the ways we relate to food, so that we might reverse the trend of expanding waistlines and heaving scales. It is time to change our eating habits forever—and this book is a fantastic way to start.
The author lets us into a secret that few of us have considered in our mission to lose a few pounds, and which may be hindering our attempts. In our everyday consumption, there is a Mindless Margin
: a zone of unawareness where we consume more calories than we think we do, leading to an insidious weight gain that creeps up on us over time. Before we know it, we have gained ten pounds in a year, but can never pinpoint why. This mindless-eating margin is the culprit. Luckily, once we become aware of it, we can learn how to reverse its effects, and actually use it in our favor to lose weight instead of gain it.
Once you fully understand the concept of the Mindless Margin, you can then learn tricks to help you steadily lose weight with very little effort. You will not be deprived: you can still enjoy the food you love while
