The House Diet: Weight Loss for Life

This is a book about change. I don't mean just change in your weight--losing the pounds you want to lose. Weight loss is important, but it's not really the change that is most important. Rather, The Structure House Weigh Loss Plan focuses on changing yourself in deeper, more significant, more durable ways than what you can measure simply by standing on your bathroom scale. I'm talking about changing how you view yourself. Changing your relationship with food. Changing your choices about how to live your life. Changing your attitude about change itself. Gerard J. Musante

Gerard J. Musante, Ph.D. has published a book about his acclaimed weight loss program called "The Structure House". The approach is unique in that it focuses on psychology and behavioral modification to achieve long-term weight loss.

"We work with people to expose unhealthy eating behaviors such as boredom, habit and stress and I address this in the book," said Dr. Musante. "The plan supports sensible exercise and eating nutritious food, in appropriate portions, three times a day.

Dr. Musante's new book provides positive ways to understand dysfunctional eating patterns, while simultaneously providing resources and coping strategies for each one. He outlines a proactive plan for each environment (home, workplace, restaurants) and for each emotion that will lead readers to regain a sense of balance and develop a positive relationship with food. The end result is an all-encompassing lifestyle change for weight loss and healthy living.
