New Book Offers Secret to Losing Weight: Stop Dieting!

NEW YORK, May 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recent survey, 54 percent of American women have been on four or more diets in their lifetime. As a nation, we are bombarded with conflicting diet strategies – low-carb, low-fat, low-GI, and the list goes on and on. Confused and frustrated, it is no wonder people almost always regain the weight they manage to lose.

Author and registered dietitian, Gloria Tsang, says you can lose weight for good in a surprisingly simple way - undieting!  In her new book Go UnDiet, Tsang offers readers straightforward advice and pertinent nutrition-based information to help them reach their weight loss goals.

Tsang's tips include:

• 50 easy-to-follow strategies that will help people modify their eating habits and lose weight without following a rigid diet plan or counting calories or fat grams
• Which foods are really to blame for weight gain (hint: it's not the common food "villains" like meat and cheese)
• A five-second label scan to identify diet-destroying, highly processed foods (HPF), and three foolproof ways to avoid this weakest link
• The truth about common diet myths, and how to choose food products that really work for you

"I wrote this book so I could share one of the most important things that I have learned from my 15 years of working in the nutrition and health fields: diets don't work," says Gloria Tsang, RD. "Instead of teaching dependence on charts and plans, this book is a guide designed to help you lose weight for good by making small changes, one step at a time."

For the interviews conducted in this particular study, the chances are 95 in 100 that a survey result does not vary, plus or minus, by more than 3.0 percentage points from the result that would be obtained if interviews had been conducted with all persons in the universe represented by the sample.
