Calorie Counter Journal for Dummies:
"As a registered dietitian, I know numerous studies have found that
journaling is a key to successful weight loss and maintenance. For
those who have trouble getting started, this book may be just the key. A
compact, soft-cover, spiral-bound book, it can easily fit into a purse,
tote or briefcase so it's always handy to jot down everything you eat
or drink. Introductory information in the first 64 pages explains how
to calculate calorie needs, determine serving sizes, develop diet goals
and use the journal. The remaining 190 pages provide a day/page to
record meals and snacks, check off fluid and fruit/vegetable intake and
log exercise. It's simple and easy to use and sure to make you more
aware of what you are eating so you can take of unwanted pounds." Neva Cochran
"It is well documented that people who keep track of what they eat and
drink are more successful at weight loss than those who do not.
Sometimes it is hard just getting started. In the The Calorie Counter
Journal for Dummies®, Rust and Raffetto present changing habits as a
motivating journey to a healthier lifestyle for the average person as
well as for the athlete who wants to improve their competitive edge.
The section on goals determines where you are in terms of behavior
change, visualizing what you want to achieve, setting SMART goals, and
not just focusing on the scale as a measure of success. The journal
itself has 24 weeks which allows you to easily stay focused and reflect
upon your progress. Rosanne and Meri have successfully "made everything
easier" as their cover says."
Marianne Schneider, RD, MS, LDN
"I have been looking for just this type of journal. I'm an active and
fit person but find that I needed a simple, convenient way to put all of
my goals and history together. This fits the bill perfectly and will
have a place in my briefcase. Although I'm sure it will be a handy tool
for anyone that wants to use the power of putting something down on
paper to reinforce their goals and actions, it seems like a perfect tool
for the amateur athlete hoping to advance their exercise efforts and
support their weight targets." ~Bikerider
The Calorie Counter for Dummies:
"A no-nonsense guide with clear and concise advice--just
what I needed to provide some inspiration. Got me pumped to stay
motivated about increasing my activity level and cutting down calorie
intake." ~D. B. Meadville
"I bought this handy
little reference before my husband and I made a trip
across country. We're normally health nuts, but on the road it becomes
very difficult. The Calorie Counter For Dummies definitely helped us
navigate the healthiest choices at the fast food and restaurant stops on
our journey. It was fantastic to be able to make informed decisions
about what to order at places you don't correlate with eating
healthy..." Cali, Manchester, ME
