The book is Slim for Life by Jillian Michaels; I’m a fan of hers (more for her workout DVDs and her excellent podcast than for her work on The Biggest Loser per se), and put this on reserve at the library as soon as is become available. The ebook is almost $15, which is too rich for my blood!
gamificationAnyway, the book has a somewhat unusual format. Each chapter is focused on a certain life area (diet, fitness, lifestyle and so on), as in her previous weight-loss books. However, the information is not presented narrative-style. Rather, it’s presented as a series of short, succinct little ‘tips,’ each of which has been assigned a point value based on how important Michaels thinks it will be for your success on the program. Tips worth three points are the most important, and you should try to do them all. Tips worth two points are good, solid suggestions that you should do if they work for your lifestyle. Tips worth one point will give you a boost if you need help in a certain area.
