The only diet made for real life!

Forget about fad diets--they are the surefire path to failure. When you lose a lot of weight quickly through unhealthy means, you are guaranteed to gain it all back. The Exercise Exchange Program is a HEALTHY WAY OF LIFE. The food exchanges are created by the American Dietetic Association (did you know that Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig use those very same exchanges?). You won't learn tricks and fads from this book--you will learn correct food portions and easy ways to exercise that you can use FOREVER. I went on this diet and lost 15 pounds in 4 months (a slow and healthy rate of weight loss)--and I kept it off for 3 years! This uncomplicated, flexible diet plan will truly teach you how to make permanent, healthy lifestyle changes.
