The instinct diet : use your five food instincts to lose weight and keep it off / Susan B. Roberts and Betty Kelly Sargent.
Satisfying our hardwired instincts has been critical to our survival for as long as we have been human. That's why we eat when food is available, choose the most calorie-dense foods, and hate the feeling of hunger. Today, these same drives are leading millions down the path of obesity. Here, nutrition researcher Dr. Susan B. Roberts shows how to turn our food instincts into an engine for permanent, healthy weight loss. The "I" diet is a pleasure to follow: a diet based on impeccable research, a diet where the dieter never goes hungry, a diet that's unequivocally healthy, thoroughly grounded in the metabolic, genetic, and psychological workings of the human body. Essentially, it shows how you can control the controls. Through its focus on deeply satisfying dishes plus proven behavioral modifications, the diet is a fat-burning marvel.--From publisher description.
