The 4 Day Diet

With over twenty years of experience watching how and why dieters lose weight—and how they don't—Dr. Ian developed a program that actually retrains the brain to diet naturally. In , Dr. Ian distills that program into the acronym SMARTER: —Sense of where you are: don't fool yourself about your habits and what kind of shape you're in —Make realistic goals: don't sabotage your success by trying to do too much too fast —Activate your motivational engine: learn how to be your own best diet coach —Resist temptation: how to put yourself in an environment that supports your diet and keeps you disciplined —Think thin: why visualization works —Every bite counts: track your intake, but learn how to enjoy what you eat more at the same time —Reward yourself: indulge yourself in small and big ways along the road to permanent weight loss
