Not a Diet Book: Take Control. Gain Confidence. Change Your Life.

Product Information

It gives you most of the basics and even gives you some important points from other non-fiction books like Matthew Walker’s Why We Sleep. Thanks to James, I can now continue my fitness journey to avoid the dangerous hereditary medical conditions that have wracked my family. I would definitely recommend this to others, but would suggest taking some advice with a pinch of salt! better off finding an author who doesnt give you a mishmash of points and ideas that you could get from the internet. Just a solid understanding that people need to live their lives and an approach that lets them take more control over their own life without being dragged in by marketing, spin or bullshit.

He is also known for his best selling books which help readers level-up their fitness knowledge and become their best self. Go to the gym, eat healthier, walk 10,000 steps a day, eat less of that product, do upside-down jumping jacks while drinking celery water, etc.

Don’t set goals on a scale but instead in progression on amounts you can lift or distance you can run over time. Also strange how in Feb '22 he had 900k followers then bang when he was about to appear in TV he had 1m followers in May '22 growth if 100k in less than 2 months. I have a strong dislike for dieting having watched my mum beat herself up for not being “perfect” and falling off the diet wagon.

This book is about changing your life and lifestyle so that you make better choices when it comes to what makes you happy, especially in terms of fitness and food. So if you want to go back and refer to the chapter on vitamins, you have to take guesses at which one this is. You listen and listen to so much rambling you switch off and fail to acknowledge any parts of the audio that may actually be of interest.

Even James acknowledges this couple of times in his book - he mentions fitness influencers and how they rely on anecdotal evidence. His second book ‘Not a Life Coach’ challenges readers to think about their own happiness and how to achieve it.All these diet fads are just some ways in consuming less calories overall, and whichever one you believe in will generally work because it's a placebo.

Making it through situations we find ourselves in from a work, personal and healthy lifestyle place. Sometimes, life is about taking small steps instead of big, drastic jumps just because something doesn't work for us straight away.I quite liked James' approach - it's straightforward, easy to implement, relies on teaching people to get back to basics and stop looking for miracle cures to being overweight. James’ bestselling books, ‘ Not a Diet Book’ and ‘ Not a Life Coach’ are published by Harper Collins.
