Recommendations for books about weight loss / motivation?

5 replies

Hi everyone

I have struggled with my weight for a long time and really really want to lose weight once and for all. Despite being desperate to lose weight I do struggle to stay motivated. I am a big reader and wondered if anyone has any recommendations for books that they found motivating or inspiring or just helped them to lose weight and get healthier. I don't mind if it's a book about a specific diet plan or something more general about motivation etc, just anything that you found helped you would be great!

Thanks

xx

Not a book but an Audible series called 'in the habit - an introduction to changing our behaviour'
Obviously, it's all about habits, how they are formed and how to break bad ones and create good ones that will stick. I was a bit of a mindless grazer and this has really helped me stop mindless snacking and grazing.
I'm also doing intermittent fasting and have read Michael Mosley's articles about it which make a lot of sense so maybe one of his books?

James Smith (PT) has a book out soon but has insta/podcast. He's quite brash and immature at times but what 30 year old man isn't? Grin His views around the health/fitness industry are worth checking out before you subscribe to a particular diet.
