In Mini Habits for Weight Loss, you will learn how to lose weight naturally, in the precise way your body and brain are meant to change.We’ve blamed ourselves for lack of discipline. That didn’t help.We’ve blamed calories, carbs, and fat. That didn’t help.We’ve blamed our diet formulas. That didn’t help. It’s time we looked at the practice of dieting.
