Teach Yourself Weight Control is not a ‘get-slim-quick’ book, but gives real facts and realistic advice about dieting and exercise for those concerned about their weight and health.

The book provides a safe and effective strategy for long-term weight control and explains the reasoning behind this approach. Practical suggestions are given to increase activity and reduce fat and calorie intakes. It helps you to judge your own weight and analyse how it will affect your future well-being.

Geoff Webb, the author, is a senior lecturer at the University of East London with 30 years research and teaching experience in nutrition and physiology. He is a member of the Nutrition Society and the Association for the Study of Obesity and served for over eight years on the editorial board of the British Journal of Nutrition. He has written over thirty journal articles and written two other books.
