Do you believe that dieting is supposed to be difficult? Or that you need to choose between the body of your dreams and the food you love? What if I told you that one has nothing to do with the other, and that you could lose weight eating what you want without having to go hungry?

What the multibillion-dollar dieting industry doesn't want you to know is that there is a simple and easier way to lose weight and keep it off. And, despite what you've been led to believe, it's not about low-carb diets or willpower. Think about it, if everyone lost the weight for good, it wouldn't be a billion-dollar dieting industry anymore.

In this book, I'm going to teach you how to become an enlightened dieter, and the art of calorie counting. But, this isn't your mother's calorie counting book. It's a whole new take on dieting that will change the way you think and feel about food. While you may have written off calorie counting in the past, you'll be shocked to see how quickly and effortlessly you lose the weight when you apply the techniques in this book.

Discover how to lose weight effectively and permanently. Learn how to listen to your body, how to lose weight eating the food you like, and how to free yourself from the bondage of emotional eating. Break the cycle, and end your struggles with dieting, so you can achieve lasting weight loss, attain your dream body, and find peace of mind.

(Side Note: I received an advanced copy of this book) As a person who has tried every fad diet under the sun- low carb, juice cleanse, paleo, etc.- This is the one that actually seemed the easiest to follow and produced the best results. In fact, Pires makes it seem like it isn't even a diet at all. Her approach to the simplistic nature of counting calories made me realize that to lose weight, I needed to change my whole mindset about dieting in general. With this book, you will learn that you can eat the foods you actually enjoy as long as you stay within your caloric limit for the day. I no longer had to sacrifice my beloved carbs which was a godsend. Pires teaches you how to make the mind/body connection with your approach to eating and gives you the tools to be able to make smart decisions with indulgences along the way. She makes you realize how easy it is for you to stay on track towards your weight loss goal. Her simplistic approach is an easy lifestyle change that won't have you hoping back on the fad diet bandwagon but will instead lead you to what she likes to refer to as diet enlightenment. And through her tips I was finally able to effectively lose weight and keep it off rather than have to see the scale go up and down constantly as I went on and off of my fad diets.
