In the first Mayo Clinic diet book actually endorsed by the Mayo Clinic, contributors start by describing why this program focuses on health rather than aesthetics, helps readers determine and accept what their healthy weight should be, and take into consideration all the excuses for unhealthy eating and exercise habits. Topics include understanding the elements of healthy weight control, learning healthy behaviors, addressing emotional needs, taking control of meal planning and exercise, and staying motivated. Other topics include assessments of other eating plans, medications and surgeries, a visual guide that shows exercise techniques and the results of recipes. The core of the book is the 12-week healthy weight program, with each week focusing on a different aspect of attaining and maintaining a healthy weight, including daily meal plans, recipes, and weekly shopping lists.
