When Jimmy Mohamed looks at the thorny issue of diets and weight loss, it is with a benevolent tone. No judgment and no tricks. Wait, did you know that drinking water increases energy expenditure, and that a liter ingested burns a hundred calories? That it’s better to weigh yourself only once a fortnight to fake your brain? What eating an apple is the best natural appetite suppressant? Admittedly, seasoned readers will not have much to put in their mouths, and some tips such as the use of chromium to fight once morest sweet cravings are subject to caution, but by refusing to use an anxiety-inducing and guilt-inducing tone, Jimmy Mohamed makes himself and his book sympathetic.
