Here is an excerpt from an email I got about the book. I'm sticking only with Burn the Fat... What I had hoped for was a hardcover of that book!
QUESTION:
Tom, Can you point out what the difference is between this new book and
your Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle (BFFM) ebook that I already bought.
What's missing in BFFM that's covered here and vice versa?
Is The Body Fat Solution just a re-hash of BFFM?
Also, most important, who is the intended audience of The Body Fat
Solution, and BFFM, and how do they differ?
ANSWER:
Burn the fat, feed the muscle (BFFM) was designed to be a
complete and definitive guide to nutrition for fat loss,
based on the bodybuilding / fitness/ figure method of eating.
The majority of BFFM is devoted to nutrition, with ancillary
chapters on setting goals effectively and on weight training
and cardio, also following "the bodybuilding method"
The target audience for BFFM is anyone who is serious about
fat loss, and who wants to maximize their results by putting
in the time, paying attention to details, using advanced
techniques (such as those used by bodybuilders before competition),
and doing nutrition by the numbers (counting calories and macros)
Generally, BFFM is for people who are highly motivated.
The new hardcover book, The Body Fat Solution, was written for
anyone who is overweight, or who was formerly overweight and
who wants to maintain their ideal weight without struggle.
The Body Fat Solution is NOT for athletes, bodybuilders or
people who need to get "ripped" or reach extremes of low body fat.
Body Fat Solution is especially written for people who struggle
with inconsistent motivation, emotional eating, binge eating
and other forms of self sabotage.
The Body Fat Solution gives help for people struggling with
everyday challenges - like frequent travel, restaurant
temptations, busy schedules, high stress and social pressure -
things that can can get in the way of the best nutrition or
training strategy
In The Body Fat Solution, one concise chapter on nutrition
is included along with chapters on cardio training and a
time-efficient weight training program for the busy person,
which makes The Body fat Solution a complete lifestyle program.
However, the major message is that "What nutrition or training
program should you follow?" is not the most important question
you should ask. The real critical question is...
What makes you follow your program?
And, conversely, "What makes you fall off your program so easily?"
The Body Fat Solution gets to the emotional and psychological
root causes of body fat and shows you how to fix these hidden
factors that sabotage most people.
There has been a huge void in the book marketplace for this
kind of information, until now.
My recent press release was just a very preliminary announcement
and "heads up." I will be explaining the book in much greater
detail in the fre-e teleseminar in early January. Watch for
news in the months ahead - you won't want to miss that event.
