Weight loss book review by: Catherine

When I picked up Kelly Clark’s book, I was at a point where I felt I had NOTHING to lose.

I’d put all my energy into a restrictive diet. And when it backfired upon me, I not only gained back all the lost weight, but an additional 25 pounds. I was frustrated, confused, preoccupied by food all the time and had no idea how to proceed. Like most people with the goal of losing weight, I thought that weight loss required sheer determination and willpower.

If your story at all resonates with mine, then this book, that changed my life, is for you.

Since reading your book, I've lost 20 pounds quite steadily. My weight's no longer going up or down like it did when I was trying to stick to a diet. I couldn't be more at peace because I feel a lot healthier than I was previously, both mentally and physically. I've found balance for the first time in my life.— Catherine, Australia

It Took Me 10 Years to Lose 10 Pounds showed me that weight loss just isn’t the struggle that we’re taught to believe it is!

How has this weight loss book CHANGED your life?

Has this book made it easier to focus on school, social, sports, clubs, interests, etc.?
This book is phenomenal. It’s simplified eating in ways that I never imagined. It’s made it easier to focus on almost everything in life. For example, at university, I can be fully present in the coursework without even thinking about food or my body. I say yes more often to social gatherings because I no longer feel ashamed or preoccupied by food. And I can enjoy food without anxiety or guilt. The information in this weight loss book has affected ALL aspects of my life because it allows me to be present and free. It makes me want to cry just thinking about it.

Book Review

What was the most SURPRISING part of this weight loss book?
This book shows you the shocking and almost hilariously simple knowledge that weight loss can happen:

  • WITHOUT restricting any food groups
  • WITHOUT counting, measuring or obsessing over numbers and calories
  • WITHOUT feeling hungry or mentally deprived

Also, the book’s suggestion about exercise is some mind-boggling advice to dieters.

How would you rate the book out of 5 stars?
Five Stars

After you finished the book, did you have questions?
This book is highly comprehensive. It never made me feel overwhelmed despite being packed with information. It never used any alarmist message which would make me feel stressed about what I “should” or “shouldn’t” do. I feel as though this weight loss book allows me to make my own choices on my own timeline, which makes the process of weight loss stress-free and slow but steady and sustainable. I definitely have a solid foundation to work towards building better habits, losing weight and not being preoccupied by weight loss. The 3 Steps in this weight loss book are easy to follow.

Weight loss book review: It took me 10 years to lose 10 pounds

It Took Me 10 Years to Lose 10 Pounds slices through the confusion that diets put us through and simplifies the process of reaching and maintaining a healthy weight in ways that will blow you away. It will lead you to having many “aha!” moments, as it did for me. Kelly’s weight loss book showed me that there’s another way. One which speaks so much clear, plain sense. It cuts through the noise of the damaging, false and tricky diet “information” that we’ve all come to believe in some way, shape or form.

My favourite message from this book is that it lead me to the joyous realization that weight loss just isn’t the struggle that we’re all taught to believe it is! I want to repeat this weight loss book’s key message:

Weight loss just isn’t the struggle that we’re all taught to believe it is!

I was skeptical while reading Kelly’s weight loss book

Rather than teaching me about how to yet again diet, this book helped me unlearn everything I knew about dieting. I was skeptical while reading Kelly’s book, because some of the suggestions seemed unlike what a person looking to lose weight would do. For example, the suggestion to start eating more fat in my meals made me feel conflicted. I’d always believed that eating more hearty meals was at odds with my goal of reaching and staying at a healthy weight.

I couldn’t believe that after just days of implementing some of the small changes suggested by the book, I‘d already stopped some of my self-defeating dieting cycles such as starving and then binging.— Catherine, Australia

This weight loss book CONTRADICTED everything I believed about weight loss

Seeing is believing – I couldn’t believe that after weeks or even days of implementing some of the small changes suggested by this weight loss book, I‘d already stopped some of my self-defeating dieting cycles. For instance, starving and then binging. This meant that I stopped depriving my body of its needs each day. Without even blinking an eyelash, my metabolism “sped up” and slowly but surely, I began to lose the excess weight my body had been holding onto.

My metabolism “sped up” and slowly but surely, I began to lose the excess weight— Catherine, Australia

Kelly’s book contradicted everything that I believed I needed to do in order to lose weight – diets tell you to do this, eat that, don’t eat this, don’t eat that…After I stopped dieting via reading It took me 10 year to lose 10 pounds, my body simply took care of the rest and brought me back to the healthy weight that I am today. Now, looking back, I don’t blame myself but rather, I blame my lack of education surrounding what “healthy” eating truly looks like.

When you read Kelly’s weight loss book THIS happens

What I love about the book is not only that it’s written with great care, but it also breaks down the process of getting healthy into something that’s both realistic and achievable. The book even guides you on how to proceed if you think you’ve made a “mistake.”

The author’s compassion shines through her choice of language and her outlook on life is just highly inspiring to read. She never uses language which is condescending or demeaning and instead, she kindly invites you to take small steps in a positive direction.

Instead of putting yourself through another diet, pick up this weight loss book…

Then PREPARE to:
make today count - the10principles

  • BE quietly humbled as you unlearn everything you know about dieting.
  • LOOK back and realize that your (old!) weight-loss method, not your character, was to blame for your excess weight.
  • FEEL at peace for the first time around mealtimes as you finally begin to nourish your body with the food it needs and has been longing for.
  • STOP being preoccupied by food and be able to throw yourself into all the things that really matter to you.

Then ask yourself, is there any better way to make things count, today?

I’m so grateful for you and your weight loss book, Kelly. This review could only convey a fraction of that!

Thank you Kelly for writing this book and your blog, which have had such a huge, positive force in my life. The weight-loss information you share has really made such a difference to the quality of my life. I’m so lucky that you put your energy into creating something as meaningful and impactful as this weight loss book.
