About this title

About the Author

John McPhie has always had a passion for discovering ways of removing obstacles that limit human potential, and for finding simple solutions to complex problems. In a world burdened by an obesity epidemic, where those in need of an answer to their weight problems have been ill-served by diet fads and quick fixes, his prime motivation has been to reveal the true facts, simply and clearly, about why people put on weight. The Slim Habit, developed over several years, incorporates his experience in behavioural science and the very latest medical thinking. The aim of the book is to offer a better understanding about exactly why weight gain happens, and to provide an easy-to-do way of losing it - permanently. The Slim Habit fulfils his ambition to provide a solution that he believes will make a real and lasting difference to peoples' lives.

From the Back Cover

Today, it's important you do all you can to protect yourself from being seriously affected by the real and present danger that all of us face.
Being overweight or obese has always been a risk to health, but now it poses an even greater threat. The majority of critically-ill patients in intensive care units in the Western world are either overweight or obese.

The problem? Being overweight or obese greatly weakens the immune system, which in today's context is serious. Plus, the more fat you are carrying the less fit you are, and the lower your lung capacity. This means it's a bigger struggle for your lungs to get vital oxygen into your blood and around your body. Being overweight also means you have a demand for more oxygen. This can mean that your body can become overwhelmed by the lack of oxygen getting to your major organs, with often fatal consequences.

Why the Slim Habit? Because if you want to do all you can to protect yourself and reduce the risk of becoming seriously ill, you need a permanent solution to weight loss, not a quick fix diet. The best way to lose weight is to learn new Slim Habits. There is no time to lose.
