In The Last 10lbs, award-winning fitness entrepreneur Tasha Turnbull takes us through her early years chronicling how she struggled with living and accepting herself as an overweight child and teenager. Her difficulty with weight gain only intensified once she entered college as she confronted challenges with greater access to various types of fast food, rigid coursework, less physical activity, depression, and what is her purpose in life? Determined once and for all to stop existing but to actively participate in life, Tasha created a basic fitness and nutrition plan for herself to follow. Her longing for a sense of focus and control over her life fueled her to get in a zone and take the necessary steps to plan out a reasonable fitness plan given her work schedule; but, without putting any unnecessary pressure on herself to live out "The Journey" based on societal standards. She decided to live her life by her own rules and in the end, ended up losing 90lbs. Despite the highs and lows that came along her journey, she succeeded in losing the weight loss baggage she had been carrying for over 20 years, becoming an award winning personal trainer, opening a fitness studio, assisting over 1600 people in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia to reach their health and fitness goals, and eventually pushing forward to lose The Last 10lbs. As Turnbull shows in The Last 10lbs, no matter how many times you have failed in the past, this book will make you believe in YOU again. Turnbull takes you step-by-step through the process on what she did to drop those last 10lbs, which increased her weight loss to 100lbs, and what you can do to lose your last 10lbs.

In Just 10 LBS, intervention specialist Brad Lamm brings a fresh eye to weight loss, focusing not on the what of eating, but on the how and why. This book discards the notion of overhauling life with the vague dream of being thin and challenges the reader to focus on losing just 10 pounds. What Lamm understands is that managing weight isn't just about doing crunches, running miles, or cutting calories; in fact, one of the most powerful parts of success is generally overlooked – a healthy relationship with oneself is key to any weight-loss program. In Just 10 LBS, Lamm outlines ten easy steps to help readers heal their relationship with themselves and thus change their relationship with food, breaking destructive cycles of disordered and unhealthy eating. Covering everything from body image to restrictive beliefs to developing a quiet, focusing daily practice, Lamm discusses all aspects of the emotional and self-esteem issues surrounding weight and food. And he puts them together into a 10-step program that begins with identifying your eating style – emotional eater, pleasure eater, energy eater, external eater or critical eater – and ends with a discussion on the importance of 'paying it forward,' or giving back the gifts you've received. Also included is an action-oriented 30-day plan to help readers get a jump start on their weight-loss efforts. The effective, easy-to-follow steps in Just 10 LBS will help readers reclaim their power over food; open emotional blockages that clutter their lives; and create a lifestyle that emphasises the mind, body, emotions, relationships and spirit.
