This book attempts to validate the famous line "We have met the enemy, and he is us." When I retired, I decided to lose fifty pounds in excess weight. I began exercising and watching what I ate. After two months and ten pounds less, I read Dr. Kessler's book, The End of Overeating. After applying his concepts to my weight loss efforts, I lost another fifteen pounds in two months without any exercise! I was surprised and amazed! I felt that if I could build a template that any individual could follow to achieve the immediate results that I did, I could change the downward spiral in health for many. The purpose of this book is to shift our paradigm from losing weight to stopping and reversing weight gain.
