You Can Drop It
This book is written by a Registered Dietitian who has been right where we have been and then some. I love this book, and have incorporated some of Ilana's techniques into my nutrition coaching program.
A couple of her recommendations, are something I leave up to my clients. Those are weighing yourself daily, and tracking your food and activities. Weighing daily can be counterproductive to a lot of people, but her emphasis is also not to become a slave of the scale, but just to use it as a monitoring tool. I do believe in tracking your food and activities from time to time, but not to become a slave to it unless it is something that you really like to do.

Ilana provides a lot of great advice, her own experiences with food and obesity, and the right way to make the changes in your life in order to be happy and healthy.
