Details. Condition: New. Format: Paperback. ISBN: 9781849499514. Publisher: Quadrille. Age Range: Adult (General Non-Fiction). Overview. How to Lose Weight Well is the practical, science-backed companion to the hit Channel 4 series of the same name. Written by Dr Xand van Tulleken with recipe writer Georgina Davies, this brand new paperback strips away fad diets and expensive supplements in favour of a straightforward, sustainable 4-step plan. Packed with 70 easy recipes and honest, real-world advice from a doctor who lost seven stone himself, it's built for readers who want lasting results rather than quick fixes.. About the Book. Born from the popular Channel 4 television series, How to Lose Weight Well follows Dr Xand van Tulleken as he distils the lessons learned from filming dieters trying out the market's most hyped weight-loss methods into one clear, workable programme. Rather than promoting a single trendy diet, the book focuses on the four key behavioural and nutritional steps that genuinely help people shed pounds and, crucially, keep them off for good. Dr Xand's own story — going from nineteen stone to a healthier weight — gives the advice real credibility and warmth, avoiding the preachy tone common in many diet books. Alongside the plan sit 70 recipes developed with food writer Georgina Davies, covering breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks and even puddings, all designed to slot into busy, ordinary lives rather than demanding a complete lifestyle overhaul. Menu plans help readers map recipes onto their week, removing the guesswork that so often causes diets to fail. The tone throughout is friendly and non-judgemental, acknowledging the cravings, temptations and lapses that derail most weight-loss attempts, and offering practical strategies to work around them instead of relying on willpower alone. The result is a genuinely usable kitchen companion as much as a diet book — one that treats sustainable weight loss as a long-term habit rather than a short, restrictive sprint.. Simple, science-backed 4-step plan for sustainable weight loss. 70 easy, family-friendly recipes for every meal of the week. Written by a doctor with genuine personal weight-loss experience. No fads, no expensive supplements — just practical, honest advice. Menu plans to help fit healthy eating into busy daily life. Ties in with the popular Channel 4 series for extra motivation.
