LOSE THOSE LAST 10 POUNDS

Austin uses a thorough understanding of muscle workouts to create a four-week program for losing those last 10 pounds. After somewhat long introduction, she presents a detailed list of meals and snacks for each of the program's 28 days. Her insights into typical feelings and reactions at each stage of the process are refreshing --- you'll know you're not alone. Not everyone will warm up to the specificity of the menus, and it may be that this sort of detail doesn't work in audio format. Some will find Austin's relentless enthusiasm a bit over the top. But the plan makes good sense and may provide just the structure many people need to achieve their ideal weight. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB / MAR 03]
