A roadmap for hip city-dwellers to lose weight and look great-without giving up their lifestyles How can you stick to your diet in a 24-hour-a-day, high-voltage city? Many turn to one of America's most sought-after dieticians, Danielle Schupp, who has long counseled her A-list clients into their skinny jeans. Now, with Urban Skinny, she puts the same tools into the hands of anyone, anywhere, who lives a life on the go. The science behind her plan is simple: calories in, calories out. But it's the strategy that makes it happen-and that's what this book is all about. Schupp explains how to budget calories like budgeting money, with a savings account for the occasional splurge on truffle fries or Bordeaux. With Urban Skinny, she helps readers fit their diets into their lives, not vice-versa. * Urban Myth: Fat makes you fat.Urban Skinny: Fat, fortunately, is great.
