 STANDS OUT FROM THE REST!! September 9, 2005
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I've always admired Jillian's honest, no-nonsense approach to diet and exercise, but I wondered if this would be "just another diet book." It's NOT! It's a knowledgeable, sophisticated book, wrapped in an easily understood package. There's everything you need to know, and then some (it's full of helpful tips). I feel like I finally found a guide I can follow, written by a woman who seems to understand the pain of being overweight from the inside out. THANK YOU, JILLIAN!

I attended Jillian's lecture in Hazlet, New Jersey on Sept. 6 and she was very inspiring. I was with my sister; whom convinced me and a few other ladies in our circle to go. I have around 80lbs to lose and have been struggling with weight issues my entire life. Jillian was nothing like I expected. I was even a little intimidated going there thinking she would be so strict and acting above us all when in fact she was the opposite! Warm, understanding, funny, self-deprecating and she made "me" feel like a million bucks. She stayed after the lecture to speak to each of us individually and had kind encouraging words for all of us. I wish I lived closer to her - I'd recruit her as my trainer. p.s. they showed her fat photo on season one of the biggest loser - she still looked very pretty anyway in my opinion.

I totally agree with Jillian's philosophy and the book is a great read!! I would definitely recommend this book to a friend - its very thorough and a very complete read... it really makes you confront yourself and get serious about fitness and health. Her philosophy of SELF, SCIENCE and SWEAT are really the keys to shedding the fat and toning up... it takes a certain mindset and driving focus to get real results. Jillian has some great things to say!!

I was a contestant on The Biggest Loser and Jillian was my trainer. She created my diet and exercise regimen for me and only me. It is the one and only time in my life I have been successful at losing weight... and keeping it off. In her book Winning By Losing she will teach you how to individualize your weight loss regimen so you succeed in the battle of the bulge once and for all! This book is the next best thing to having your own world class fitness guru at your side pushing and encouraging you to "drop the weigh and change your life". In her book Winning By Losing she teaches you how many calories YOU should be eating and what types of foods are right for your unique metabolism. Where exercise is concerned she will guide you through a 12 week exercise program and teach you everything you need to know about how to work out in the most effective way possible. She will also educate you about how your feelings and your behaviors affect your weight and show you how to commit all your mental resources towards change. She is amazing... and so is her book. If you are the person who has struggled with weight your entire life, buy Jillian's book... it will be the best gift you ever give yourself.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is struggling with weight loss. I have tried so many diets out there and have fallen off the wagon. Winning By Losing is different. It is simple, clear cut, and comprehensive. This book teaches you how to create your own diet and how to make smart choices. It teaches you everything you need to know about diet and nutrition in its Science section. It teaches you everything you need to know about working out in its Sweat section. But I was most impressed with a section called Self which addresses all emotional and psychological aspects of weight loss. This book really helps and motivates you to change your attitude and consequently your life.
