The Vice-Busting Diet
A 12-Week Plan
to Break Your Worst Food Habits
and Change Your Life Forever


From Publishers Weekly
Havey, author of Awaken the Diet Within and who serves as eDiets.com's "Master Motivator," was once a self-described "290-pound unhappy single mother." Now, she's 130 pounds lighter—weight loss she has maintained for a decade—and is married to her coauthor, a doctor and president of Missouri's Health and Wellness Institute. Havey shares her own breaking point: the time at which she realized "Deprivation is not living without certain foods, but living with them and being deprived of your true health and happiness!" The key to adopting a healthier lifestyle and a healthier life is the recognition and eradication (busting) of vices that are getting in the way of weight loss. The most common ones are soft drinks, fast food and television; the book offers strategies, affirmations and action plans for eradicating the negative influences of these bad habits. The book's centerpiece is a 12-week plan with specific, manageable goals for each step. An exercise plan and healthy recipes round out this straightforward though simplistic plan for lifestyle change. (July)
