    haha thank you all so much so many good suggestions! I'm gonna whip out the kindle and start downloading some samples!

    Liking the French Woman idea....my ultimate goal (isn't it everyone's, really?) is intuitive eating, so I like the idea of info and suggestions about subtle life changes....I mean, wine, cheese, and bread and they're thin as rails! :P

    Thanks again!

    SHRED Revolutionary Diet By Ian K. Smith, M.D. LOVE IT! Its a 6 week plan. Easy read. He was on Dr. Oz!

    ...which means it is a gimmick by a snake oil salesman. Nope.

    Thanks! From what I can find, it's not in print anymore because the author is revising it to re-release it. :(

    For body weight exercises try

    You Are Your Own Gym
    by Mark Lauren

    or specifically for women:

    Body By You
    by Mark Lauren

    You are your own gym has been a great help with forming my exercise routine.

    I enjoyed reading "The Abs Diet." Nothing terribly extreme, just common sense strategies for eating a balanced diet, feeling full, and exercising regularly.

    The Eat Clean Diet... it isn't really about dieting, just about making better choices and what your body does with sugar and things like that. So informative

    Seriously, pretty much anything from Tosca Reno. It's real, healthy, and sustainable.

    Same here, I have one of her books, got it for 20 cents at the library and it has helped with a lot of questions.

    That last ten pounds can be hard! You might want to look into Taking Up Space. When you get to the end, humans often need to increase their calories to continue seeing changes in body composition.

    Drop dead healthy - a middle age mad wants to become as healthy as possible so looks into a lot of the things people try to do to get healthy, with some skepticism and humour thrown in!

    I really like "You are what you eat" by Jillian McKeith. She goes through a lot of ailments that people have, and tells you what to eat to fix it. Some really great suggestions in that book.

    Yes it is. I was hooked at the introduction and her explanation of "Taking Up Space". Brilliant and totally mind altering for me.
