The “Eat This, Not That!” series of books by David Zinczenko (editor-in-chief of Men’s Health magazine and editorial director of Women’s Health magazine) are super easy to read, eye-opening and chock-full of great helpful tips from grocery shopping to cooking, eating out at restaurants and drinking for better nutrition, which leads to better health – for the entire family! It’s simply designed to help you make smart food choices easier, no matter where you’re making them – grocery store to restaurant. It’s visual and pairs classic food swaps, and helps you cut hundreds—or even thousands—of calories from your daily food intake, without feeling like you’ve deprived yourself.
I was able to borrow several of the books from my local public library! With these healthy hints and the support structure of participating in the Weight Watchers Momentum Program, over the past 11 months, I was able to shed over 40 pounds and bring my previously high cholesterol well into the normal range! So check it out and start making healthier eating choices for you and your family.
