The
Joy of Weight Loss
A Spiritual Guide to Easy Fitness
By Norris Chumley
Published by Lantern Books
Unlike other weight-loss or diet books, The Joy of Weight Loss is a weight-management book that offers a fresh new solution to everyone’s quest for health and happiness. There are no magic pills, no starvation or binge diets. There are no crash courses or deprivations. Chumley, who lost 160 pounds and has kept it off for 11 years, instead counsels a sensible diet, taking pleasure in pleasurable movement rather than a punishing exercise regime, and, most importantly of all, learning to surrender yourself to a higher power and discover a true form of self-love that is at once accepting and transforming.

“No matter what your spiritual tradition, Norris Chumley’s The Joy of Weight Loss offers a new and powerful way to change your life, lose weight and have fun at the same time. I heartily recommend it to you.” —Deepak Chopra, author, How To Know God
“Consistently making a conscious choice to be healthy is a liberating and joyous ex- perience. Let Norris Chumley inspire you to begin now.” —Susan Sarandon
“A spiritual wake-up call for all of us who confuse food cravings with our need for deep, spiritual nourishment.” —Arielle Ford, author, Hot Chocolate for the Mystical Soul
“Norris
Chumley turns the weight-fighting movement on its head in this brilliant
book of passionate self-management.” —T George Harris, 
former
editor, Psychology Today
“A joy. The best ‘diet’ is a well-balanced diet, with variety, eaten in moderation for life, along with regular exercise, surrendering to a Higher Power, and feeling the joy while losing weight. That’s the plan in this book.” —Monica Sweeney, M.D.,
"This book is the real thing. The author did what few people can
do, lose weight and keep it off for good. It's a whole new idea about
how to get thinner. No b.s. here. Honest and simple. There's a lot about
simple nutrition, but no dieting. I like it because I can eat anything,
and often, all day long. Chumley doesn't make me do heavy exercise,
either. I started just walking 10 to 15 minutes a day and that was enough
and I could do it. Most important, this book brought me closer to God
and helped me put my beliefs into action. I'm losing weight with it.
Thank God. I think this book can help you too. Give it a try. I also
like his website." —Scotty
Ballantine from Indiana.
