Flying in the face of our quick-fix culture, the New York
Times bestselling Younger Next Year and its sequel, Younger
Next Year for Women, crossed the 1,000,000-copy milestone by
essentially telling readers to work out six days a week.
Forever. This same honest, no shortcuts approach is woven
into the DNA of Thinner This Year. Chris Crowley, the memorable patient and coauthor of Younger
Next Year, partners with Jen Sacheck, a nutritionist and
exercise physiologist from Tufts University, and in lively,
alternating chapters they spell out a weight-loss plan that
will have readers lose up to 25 pounds in the first six
months—and keep it off for life. The message is
straightforward and based on the most up-to-date nutritional
science: Avoid “dead,” i.e., nutrient-poor, foods,
particularly the SOFAS (solid fats, added sugars) choices
that comprise more than a third of our diet. Design your
plate to be 50% vegetables and fruits, 25% whole grains, and
25% lean proteins. Skip the supplements. Never drink your
calories. And exercise. Exercise, the authors emphasize, is the great flywheel of
weight loss. And whereas Younger Next Year told you why to
exercise six days a week—Thinner This Year tells you how to
eat and how to exercise, from the best aerobic workouts to a
lifetime supply of 25 whole-body strength exercises—the
“Sacred 25”—that will build muscle, protect joints, and add
mobility. Exercise will do more than anything else to put
off 70% of “normal” aging until the very end and eliminate
50% of serious illness and injury.
