Sarah Ferguson's book Dieting With the Duchess by Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess Of York.
Reviews of Sarah Ferguson's book Dieting With the Duchess by Sarah
Ferguson, The Duchess Of York.
The Duchess of York is an odd candidate for the role of Everywoman,
but in Dieting with the Duchess, she inhabits the part convincingly. She
relates the trouble she's had controlling her weight, how living in the
royal fishbowl exacerbated those problems (every fluctuation in her
weight was noted by the voracious English media), and how she finally
discovered a weight- management program she can live with through
Weight Watchers (for which she's a spokesperson) and workouts with
a personal trainer.
She enthusiastically relates all she's learned about diet and nutrition,
which is (fair warning) the same basic stuff you'll find anywhere. And
the
book's exercise advice is all in the same vein. If there's anything here
you don't know, then you really haven't cared enough to pay attention.
Fortunately, the book puts the basic information together in interesting
ways. The recipes for dishes like pizza provencal, portobello mushroom
panini, and gingered shrimp emphasize the idea that watching your
caloric intake doesn't mean living without delicious food. And the
exercise programs draw the distinction between exercising for general
health and longevity and doing so for weight loss--a fine point that's
often missed in mass-marketed fitness advice.
Mostly, though, this is a book about changing attitudes, about going
from predominantly negative feelings about your body and your health
to positive ones. Weight loss is a part of the equation for many women,
but much more important is feeling a sense of control over one's body
and one's health. Dieting with the Duchess may get you started on that
path, if for no other reason than that it's comforting to know one of the
most famous women on earth goes through all the same stuff you do.

Book Description of Sarah Ferguson's book Dieting With the Duchess
by
Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess Of York.
She's established herself as a hardworking single mother who is
successfully conquering her weight issues. Now Sarah, The Duchess of
York shares her personal secrets and tips for her healthful new lifestyle
and tells every woman how she, too, can be a winner in the battle of the
bulge.
Dieting with The Duchess blends the sound weight-loss guidance of
the trusted authority in weight loss, Weight Watchers, with the real-life,
real-woman-wisdom of The Duchess of York. The book begins with
"My Truths," the five rules The Duchess learned on her own weight-loss
journey. She talks about some of the highs -- and lows -- she has
experienced since becoming Weight Watchers spokesperson, how she
sticks to an eating and exercise plan when she's always on the go, and
the challenges of losing pounds while the world is watching. "Nutritional
Know-How" gives you a primer on food fundamentals, including
information on the food groups and nutritional supplements. "Moving
and Losing" emphasizes the importance of exercise. There are simple
techniques for creating the workout that suits your unique exercise style,
and for getting -- and staying -- motivated. "Discovering the Real You"
will show you how to (re)discover your true self during the weight-loss
process, encouraging you to explore your weight and body image
issues, and suggesting practical ways to project a positive self-image
and change your behavior. Throughout the book, The Duchess offers
her own advice on everything from smart eating ("I pack a lunch pail to
take with me when I'm running from meeting to meeting") to exercising
to learning from your past mistakes ("I'm trying to learn something new
every day"). And last, but certainly not least, Dieting with The
Duchess includes 75 delicious recipes (1*2*3 Success® Weight Loss
Plan POINTS®values included). From delicious soups and salads to
sweet and savory breads, from family friendly fare to elegant entrées
to
divine desserts, you'll savor a wide selection of foods and flavors that
will satisfy all your senses.
