About this listen
Bob Harper lets us in on the secret behaviors of people who not only lose weight but keep the pounds off for good - and make it look easy.
In Bob Harper's number-one New York Times best-selling book The Skinny Rules, the trusted trainer and coach of NBC's The Biggest Loser laid out the 20 nonnegotiable eating rules for getting thin.
In the process of helping countless men and women reach their weight loss goals, Harper has noticed six fundamental patterns in the lifestyle choices of those who succeed long-term - from the unique way they plan ahead to how they organize their environments and social calendars and even to the way they dress. With his signature authority, colorful stories, and real-world solutions, Harper draws on the most up-to-date research related to habit formation, neuroplasticity, and cognitive behavioral psychology to show how feeding your brain - "the muscle between your ears" - can wield as much control over your weight as what you put in your mouth.
With anecdotes about his clients, guided steps for adopting your new practices, and tips for integrating them into your own daily routine, Skinny Habits has everything you need to shape your body and your life!

When it comes to setting and achieving your goals, how you think influences what you do. Whether developing a sustainable relationship with food, jump-starting a new fitness routine to shoot for a certain number on the scale, or tackling a health issue, mindset is key to meeting your goals—but it can also often be the most neglected element in any attempt to change behavior. While you might know what you want to do, the key to success is understanding why you want to do it, and how you make a plan that works for you in the long term.

Because they don't understand the brain-body dynamics of weight loss. Now, cutting-edge research has revealed that millions of dieters following typical weight loss programs are actually programming themselves to get fatter.

Hard to do thru Audible
This book was hard to listen to thru Audible due to the "homework" & not being to write notes & drive. Bob also did not narrate it which was a bummer.

Picked Up A Few Tips
I don't have any skinny friends so I read Bob's Skinny Habits. I loved his book the Skinny Rules. The narrator was good. It's hard to listen to this audiobook with the habits homework. I felt like I needed to jot down notes. I'm going to rent this book for free at my library and make my own list to put on my refrigerator. My favorite was Make Contingency Plans and Rest for Sucess (I don't get enough and it causes me to eat more). I don't feel like I need an audiobook for these basic habits. It was just Okay.
