1. The Joy of Weight Loss, by Norrisj. Chumley,
Paperback, Lantern Books
The Joy of Weight Loss is the dramatic story of how
Norris Chumley turned his life around. On September 6,
1989 Norris Chumley was at a crossroads. At 330 pounds
and rising, it was simply a matter of time before he
would again tip the scales at the 400 pounds he had
reached many times before. He had been on virtually
every diet, and they’d all failed. Chumley shares his
experiences and secrets of success—of how he discovered
joy and lasting happiness, with permanent freedom from
obesity. There are no crash courses or deprivations.
Chumley instead counsels a sensible diet, taking
pleasure in pleasurable movement rather than a punishing
exercise regime, and, most importantly of all, learning
to surrender yourself to a higher power and discover a
true form of self-love that is at once accepting and
transforming.
