Editor's Choice

In a follow-up to her New York Times bestseller Crack the Fat-Loss Code, Chant provides new strategies, tips, and tricks in order to maximize results and ensure success for those who follow her macro-patterning diet.

Fat Loss Secrets

Chant begins by summing up the main points found in her previous diet book, Crack the Fat-Loss Code. Chant suggests the secret to successfully losing weight and keeping it off is by following a macro-patterning approach in which dieters cycle their carbohydrate intake. With Chant's plan, there are low carb days (20 grams of carbs maximum) and carb up days. This macro-patterning, says Chant, tricks the body into using fat as its energy source. Once this happens, the body uses its excess fat more efficiently and uses up food for immediate energy instead of storing it as fat.

Meal Plans and Exercise

Dieters who need structure will find Chant's Conquer the Fat-Loss Code exactly what they need. Chant provides eight weeks of meal plans, outlining exactly what one should eat for six meals a day and the supplements that should be taken. Recipes are provided as well. Unlike many diets, dieters most likely won't feel deprived since Chant's plan leaves room for favorites such as ice cream and pizza.

Chant suggests dieters will benefit the most in the least amount of time by engaging in High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), which has become a popular method because although HIIT workouts are short, mega calories are burned. Chant also adds that those who have time should also include weight training in their workout routines. Readers will find eight weeks of daily exercise routines with descriptions and illustrations for the weight training techniques she suggests. Dieters can keep track of their daily meals, water and supplement intake, exercise, and emotions with the Success Tracker pages included in the book.

Tips, Tricks and Motivation

Chant shares tips on how to boost metabolism, stay on track with the diet, and how to make it through the holidays. As a motivational tool for readers, before and after shots along with testimonials of those who have successfully followed her plan are scattered throughout the book.

Who is Wendy Chant

In addition to being a New York Times best-selling author, Chant is also a Certified Master Personal Trainer (MPT) and Specialist in Performance Nutrition (SPN), and holds bachelor's degrees in both medical sciences and nutrition science. A former marathon runner and champion bodybuilder, Chant offers Nutrition Boot Camp™ classes from her ForeverFit corporate offices.

Overall, Chant's excitement about her diet plan is clear throughout the book, and while she does provide scientific research to back up her suggested weight loss method, the book is an easy read. Chant provides an abundance of tools, techniques, and motivation to ensure success for anyone who follows her plan.
