The Wall Street Diet

The Wall Street Diet helps readers lose weight, keep it off, and still keep up with their busy lives. Heather Bauer knows there aren't enough hours in the day for you to focus on the details of a complicated weight loss plan. A registered dietitian with a thriving practice in New York City, her clients have high-pressure jobs in high-profile fields: CEOs, Wall Street brokers, producers, doctors, lawyers, editors--fast-track workers at every level. These time-starved professionals don't have time to count calories or weigh food, but with Bauer's breakthrough weight loss plan they've been able to shed their extra pounds and enjoy a healthy new lifestyle. The Wall Street Diet provides a framework of simple but powerful strategies that will keep you on track, all the time. The first diet to address real-life obstacles, it gives specific, proactive ways to gain control over situations that can spell diet disaster. And because The Wall Street Diet understands that the real secret to losing unwanted pounds is making sound decisions every day about what you love to eat, it will become a seamless part of your lifestyle, not an add-on project to your already full schedule. Is "weight loss" on your to-do list? The Wall Street Diet will show you how to: Master the ins and outs of eating out. Discover the art of strategic snacking. Trim the fat from your business trips. Overcome jet lag-induced overeating. Avoid tempting hotel food. Be a savvy eater in any situation. It's your own personal business plan for diet success.

Businesses trying to stay lean and fit face the same challenges as human dieters—success requires fundamental lifestyle changes and sustained, continuing effort. And, like human dieters, businesses, too, are susceptible to the come-ons of the latest quick-fix fads, which often deliver short-term gains but fall short in the long run. Eventually they go back to their old habits and they’re right back where they started. It’s a vicious cycle. The Wall Street Diet uses a diet metaphor to illustrate a complete, integrated approach to what every business must do to become a lean, healthy enterprise. Like a truly effective weight loss program, it is a plan for achieving sustained benefits—following the Wall Street Diet will add five to eight points of potential new profit to a business's bottom line. Using the proven concept of total enterprise optimization (TEO) as a framework, the book introduces a fitness program that brings together lean techniques, advanced supply chain management, improved quality concepts, selective outsourcing, and a focus on both the top and bottom lines. The authors detail specific TEO efforts that add savings and create new values, demonstrating the synergy to be had by combining those efforts with improved consumption data and analysis and innovative partnering with allied businesses. Fundamentally, The Wall Street Diet is about changing the culture that drives the business, leading to better earnings, continued growth, and the greatest value for all stakeholders.
