On my desk this week – The Mayo Clinic Diet and Journal
The Mayo Clinic Diet and Journal- A number of weight-loss experts at the Mayo Clinic have gotten together to write a colorful book on their recommended diet, along with a daily 8-week long journal to use as you try to change your or your family’s eating habits.
This is serious stuff, but the tools in the Journal look good only for the type of person who would use them. Warning though: it will take a lot of bookkeeping and attention to detail to use this system and I wouldn’t buy the journal on the hope that it will magically make you into the kind of person who obsesses over eating minutia every day so you can analyze your diet better. For the right person, however, it’s goal is to make you focus so you can change habits.
The Diet Book itself tells in very straight-forward and big print headlines what we all know already: eat more vegetables and whole grains and cut down on fat and sugar. The book though does a good job of explaining what those good ideas really mean since blanket statements often seem too daunting to really implement. Both of these books are worth a look if you’re getting serious about your diet in the new year.
