Losing weight and getting healthy is a long and tough journey. And, all of us can use all the motivation and encouragement we can get along the way. Success Secrets is just that, a tool to aid you through the rough times you will experience along the way. Previous contestants share their experiences and what has helped them with their life changes. It's always an encouragement to read about other people, who have endured the heartache of being overweight and struggling with food just like you and me. This book is just that. It has become a book I pull off the shelf regularly and consider an invaluable part of my book collection.
Very informative and encouraging. I watch the show constantly, so the tips and hints of these previous losers helps tremendously. It's better hearing from people who have experienced the work it takes as compared to a dietician who is thin as a toothpick and has never carried extra weight trying to tell you how to lose the weight you've tried and tried to lose.
The book 'The Biggest Loser Success Secrets; The Wisdom, Motivation, and Inspiration to Lose Weight--and Keep it Off!' is absolutely worth owning. As I am in Australia, I had to wait several weeks until I recieved it in the mail. Let me tell you, the wait was well worth it. Could not get the packaging opened quick enough. It had me hooked from the first page. I guess it helped being a fan of the reality TV series! Not all of the stories struck a cord with me, however, there were elements of each persons story that I could relate to. The `Tool Box' tips on most pages are invaluable. It was very easy to read. Having lost 15 kilos (about a year ago) I have managed to keep it off. However, I knew I had more in me. This is the book to take you that much further in your weight-loss journey.
