This was an audio book for me.
I found this book wasn't actually a "diet" book. It gave a couple of diet "You Tips" but mostly it gave the physiology of what fat in the body does to the body. I found it terribly interesting.
As a closet biology nerd I found the explanations fascinating. The waring organs and hormones, the contradictory body functions, all of it explains how losing and keeping weight off is such a chore.
I did get a bit tired of all the metaphors but I lived through it.
If you like biology, or just want some additional info on how your body works, you should really enjoy this book.
