GET THE WEIGHT OFF
There's a slew of new diet titles on the shelves this month. Let us help you determine which is right for your lifestyle and personality. Read more


"Volumetrics"
by Barbara Rolls, Ph.D., and Robert A. Barnett
The key to successful weight loss is focusing on the caloric density of foods, says Barbara Rolls, a food-nutrition researcher from Penn State University. It makes sense--would you rather eat a quarter-cup of raisins, or nearly two cups of grapes, for the same number of calories? Rolls's eating plan gives you plenty of foods that will fill you up without eating into your daily calorie allotment. Read more

by Kenneth Baum with Richard Trubo

"The Choose to Lose Weight-Loss Plan for Men: A Take-Control Program for Men with Guts to Lose"
by Dr. Ron Goor and Nancy Goor
It's easier for men to lose weight than women, but, say the "Choose to Lose" authors, you have to put yourself on a "fat budget" for success. You'll be far from hungry on this plan, as it forbids meal skipping and includes large meals *and* snacks. You won't develop the abs on the cover without a bit of work, but the program makes the escape from "Fat City" nearly painless. Read more
