Review: Eat Live Thrive Diet by Danna Demetre and Robyn Thomsosn

Title: Eat Live Thrive Diet
Author: Danna Demetre and Robyn Thomson
Category: Lifestyle, Diet 
Publisher: WaterBrook 
Pub. Date: 3/26/2019 
Format: Paperback
Pages: 272
ISBN#: 978-0525653165


Synopsis:  


From the well-known health and lifestyle coaches of the widely popular website Lean Healthy Ageless (formerly Ageless Woman Living) comes a practical, science-based diet book that unravels the mystery of why women gain weight as they age and includes a sustainable plan to permanently lose the pounds and inches.

Eat, Live, Thrive Diet shows women how they can not only lose excess body fat permanently but also improve their overall health in critical areas such as brain function, resistance to disease, slowing down external aging, and increasing energy. This highly effective eating plan is presented in a compassionate voice by two experienced health coaches who share personal experiences of battling weight and emotional eating issues. Whereas most diets are short-lived or require substantial upkeep to maintain, Eat, Live, Thrive Diet is a viable eating plan that women can adhere to indefinitely. In addition to minimizing sugar intake, the plan emphasizes the importance of short-term intermittent fasting--a simple lifestyle change that makes it easier and more effective for many mature women to reach their health and weight loss goals. The book also highlights health risks and drawbacks of many popular fad diets that can be harmful on a long-term basis.

This Weeks Topic:

24th - 30th - Do you continue with a book even though you aren't liking it? (submitted by Elizabeth @ Silver's Reviews)

My rule that I try to go by is I read at the least 5 to 6 chapters. If I am really having a hard time getting to that point then I either dnf it or lay it aside and possible try to pick it up at a later date. If it is for a review a will let the author or tour guide.

So, What about you? Do you continue with a book even though you aren't liking it? Please Share.

And as always, have a great Friday.

It's Monday: What Are You Reading?

Guess what...Its Monday! What are you reading this week?

This meme started with J Kaye's Blog   and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date.  It's a meme where you share what you read last week, what you're currently reading and what you plan on reading that week.

Thanks for stopping by. First let me just say that I have been in a little bit of a reading slump (for lack of a better word)... But I have regained some much needed reading pep,

and below is what I am still reading this week. But not much has changed since last week, but still enjoying these reads.
