How one of Australia's leading weight-loss scientists, Dr Amanda Sainsbury-Salis of the Garvan Institute, put her theories to the test and lost nearly 30 kilos.

Whether you've tried all the diets but find you just keep putting the weight back on - plus extra - or simply want to lose weight and keep it off forever, this is the book for you, with real solutions based on real science.

Like many women, Dr Amanda Sainsbury-Salis began dieting in her teens despite being a healthy weight. Six years on her weight had ballooned. 'I dieted myself fat,' Dr Amanda says. 'I'd lose a kilo or two then just gain it all back, plus more.' Finally she decided to start a career in medical research so that she could find an effective way to lose weight.

Today she is a world leader in the science of weight loss. Through her research, Dr Amanda found that the key to successful dieting is to work with your body, rather than against it, by never going hungry.

Staying satisfied is the key to beating the Famine Reaction that causes ravenous hunger, cravings, weight loss plateaus and rebound weight gain.

Once you're in tune with your body, a natural mechanism - the Fat Brake - helps you to lose weight and keep it off. Dr Amanda tested out her theories on herself, losing nearly 30 kilograms and keeping it off for more than nine years (and counting), then began to help others lose weight, too.

Now, in The Don't Go Hungry Diet, Dr Amanda explains the science behind her discoveries simply and effectively, then tells how you, too, can lose weight at any age with less effort than ever before.

With chapters on how to recognise and deal with a Famine Reaction as well as how to boost your Fat Brake through nutrition and exercise, and more than 50 delicious recipes, this is a scientifically based plan that is simple for anyone to follow - and that works.

What our readers say...

"What I loved the most about Amanda's weight loss program is that it was so simple and so totally different to all the weight loss programs I have tried over the past 20+ years. I did not have to count points, weigh food or only eat specific foods. I travel a lot and dine out a lot with clients so eating specific foods, weighing food and counting points does not work for me. Amanda's consulting program helped me see my weight loss journey as exciting and positive. Amanda's consulting helped me fine tune how to go about changing my eating and exercise habits so I could lose weight almost effortlessly. I lost 5.3 kilos in 16 weeks and have kept if off now for over 6 months. I am still quite stunned about how easy it has all been. I have been trying to lose this weight for over 15 years. Also I know without any doubt that the weight I have lost is permanently lost as I have permanently changed my habits. I have had several people (including my husband) say I look 10 years younger. Not only do I look 10 years younger but I feel it too. Thank you Amanda and I am so glad I "found" you PS: I threw out all the trousers in my wardrobe that are now too big for me. There is no going back!"
