That picture caused him to realize how unhappy he was about his body, and resolve to change it. He soon discovered that the dieting industry had turned its back on men. They were expected to get fit, tone up and turn fat into a six-pack in six week, but there was nothing for men who simply didn't want a beer belly any more. With this book, he fills that void, breaking down weight loss into its essential components. Based on his own experiences and research into the world of dieting and dietitians, he tells men what they need to know about losing weight, demystifying the subject and arming readers with the information they need to win their own battle against fat. <I>Man v Fat</I> is about three steps: understanding why you got fat, learning how to lose weight, and creating a winning structure. It also covers different diets, discusses common things friends say when you try to lose weight, evaluates weight loss equipment, and even includes a chapter titled "The ways you are going to screw this up—and how not to."
