Synopsis

The world-renowned fitness coach on the hit TV show The Biggest Loser presents his winning approach to lasting weight loss by showing how to get at the root of your overeating problem, followed by a nutritionally savvy diet and unique exercise plan.
On The Biggest Loser, Bob Harper gives contestants the practical tools and psychological insights they need to get into the best shape of their lives. The key to his success is the emotional connection he makes with each participant, and he brings that same spirit to Are You Ready!

Harper starts with a four-step strategy for getting at the root of negative thought patterns and destructive behaviors, replacing both with a clear way to build self-worth and confidence. With these tools in place, people are empowered to make real, lasting changes in their lives. In an easy-to-follow eating plan, he provides lists of foods that are nutrient-dense and naturally low in calories, more than twenty sample menus, and tips on eating on the run, in restaurants, and on vacation. His fitness plan is geared to making exercise an integral part of daily life with workouts (ranging from 20 to 60 minutes) based on training techniques that tone and strengthen, burn calories, and reshape the body.

Woven throughout Are You Ready! are true-life success stories that will keep readers engaged and motivated; bulleted tips, tools, and coping strategies; and sidebars debunking common myths about food and fitness. Whether your goal is losing ten pounds or a hundred, you will find Harper’s message inspiring and his methods a proven path to finally achieving your dream of weight loss and fitness.

Includes a bonus PDF with Bob Harper's Master Lists

Goodreads review by Teena in Toronto on July 04, 2012

All the books about losing weight come with their own diet and exercise plans. Some you can do, some are just too far out there. Bob's isn't too extreme.

Goodreads review by Peggy on September 30, 2011

I found this book at Barnes & Noble, and it is amazing. Bob Harper (from Biggest Loser) has written this manual to help us "take charge, lose weight, get in shape, and change your life forever." He focuses on 3 areas: the inner compass which helps us to change our emotional/mental outlook on life an......more

Goodreads review by Rhonda on August 08, 2009

My daughter bought me this book as she knows as I a huge (no pun intended) Biggest Loser Fan - actually this book caught me off guard as it wasn't really based on the biggest loser at all.. based on the mind body connection and preparing yourself mentally before making the change to a healthi......more

Goodreads review by Justin on January 27, 2013

so I have had this book for years but never actually read it. In reading it I found it very interesting instead of Bob diving into exercise and new recepies that he talks about the emotional side of it all. To me diet books are useless. I feel as if everyone should get a personal sense on how their......more
