The Weight's Over - Take Back Control - by Sandra Roycroft-Davis (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

As a Harley Street behavioural change specialist, Sandra Roycroft-Davis knows that what's going on inside our heads is pivotal to a healthy relationship with food. Her Slimpod programme has changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Now she shares its secrets so you'll discover how to retrain your brain and take charge of your body, instead of your body being in charge of you.

Sandra explains how to break free from the endless cycle of diet-fail-diet-fail and reveals the scientific research that shows how dieting holds you back from losing weight and keeping it off.

Sandra uses her studies of neuroscience, behavioural psychology, neuro linguistic programming and the science of habit to open up a world of exciting possibility for anyone who's been dieting for years and has almost given up hope.

Discover why you eat when we're not hungry, what triggers cravings, how hormones affect fat loss and understand the difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger. Importantly, learn the science-backed methods of taking back control of your appetite for food, sugar and alcohol.

It's a book about freedom, empowerment and hope.
