The Skinny - A Book Review

For some reason, I really enjoy self-help books of all kinds. I love the idea that small changes can offer dramatic results. So, it comes as no surprise that I was attracted to The Skinny when I saw it on the shelf at the library.

The Skinny: How to Fit into Your Little Black Dress Forever
Written by Melissa Clark and Robin Aronson

The premise of The Skinny is that with some simple hints and tips a girl has the power to maintain her weight, thus allowing her to permanently fit into her little black dress. The authors have been living The Skinny lifestyle for many years and have proven that you can eat what you love and still maintain your weight. No need for counting calories or avoiding entire groups of foods is necessary; just wise choices, moderation, and lots of fruits and veggies.

This book reminded me of the principles found in the book French Women Don't Get Fat, which I reviewed for you about a year ago. And, the light hearted writing is enjoyable and often humorous. Plus, the second half of the book is all recipes, which makes this book even more helpful. So, if you are interested in a little assistance in shedding some pounds without all of the hype and drastic measures that fad diets offer, this is the book for you.
