Four Day Win by Martha Beck
 

So. Has anyone read the Four Day Win by Martha Beck? If so, thoughts?
I stumbled upon this, actually a whole section of her books at the library and took everything she's written. (Must be struggling to find my inner compass and want it in four days or less. :lol:) Anyway, just starting it. Always interesting to learn how others approach weightloss, maintenance and just whole lifestyle choices that support it.

Just looking at the chapter titles I see some familiar things from my ACSM studies so, might be interesting just from the perspective. :chin: Wonder if I can get CEC's for this book. :devil:

Haven't heard of that one, but I'll see if my library has it. I'm always looking for new reading or audio books!

As a testament to how little I deviate from this forum on the site, I see that there is like a whole section dedicated to the Beck Diet Solution....:lol: Could this be the same person. :doh: Anyway, Cheryl, if you find it and decide to read it let me know what you think. I have to speed through this thing because it's due back in like a week....

Lydia - totally NOT the same person. Martha Beck is a lifestyle coach type person (and writes a column in Oprah mag). The Beck in the diet solution is Judith Beck, a psychologist using um, I think a behavioral model for dieting. BOth good people, just not the same. :)

Ooops, thanks for filling me in Pat. The book as been interesting so far but I'm really not that far into it yet. I've been sidetracked with homework. End of quarter....:dizzy:

Judith Beck - cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) or now sometimes just called cogitive therapy (CT). Her father, Aaron, developed it and she has adapted it for weightloss.

I think it's good. It's certainly helping me lose and keep off weight. So I recommend her books to you as well.
