Are You Ready! by Bob Harper (2008, Hardcover)

Having been fat since I was one year-old I've struggled with my weight longer than Bob has been on this planet. I'm 58 and you name it - I've tried it... food programs, diet supplements, powdered drinks, fasting, shots, even gastric by-pass surgery when I reached 410 pounds but nothing had a long-term affect. I've been a Biggest Loser fan since day one but thought it could only work if I was "at the ranch." I finally got off my negative thought process and bought this book last year. It was as though Bob wrote this just for me. His eating plan is easy to follow and instantly applicable. The exercise plan helped me to actually enjoy getting physically fit. I feel the four-step strategy for getting at the root of negative thought patterns and destructive behavior was the missing ingredient and has finally helped put this biggest failure on a path for success. I may not be "at the ranch" but I'm finally a "biggest loser."

Loved it! Starts off by getting you to explore your "inner compass" and to stop the negative thoughts, excuses, and poor habits. Moves into diet (again stresses whole foods, not processed) and exercise. You get to some points in the book where you just can't put it down!! Good motivational book. I enjoy Bob, he is such a people person. He makes you want to be a better person inside and out!

Love the book, goes along with the show as far as diet. Good exercises, liked the yoga stretches too. Definitely geared towards weight loss and overall health.

I decided to buy this book to help get me motivated more about diet & exercise. Once I opened the book and started reading, it was difficult to put it down. It's a great book with great diet and exercise routines, but more than that it makes you realize the true cause of why you over eat and points out you have to take full responsibility for yourself and accept yourself for who you have become and most importantly you have to make time for yourself.

I bought the book because I love the show Biggest Loser and was hoping for some great advice I could read over and over when I needed reinforcement and I wasn't disappointed!

Seller was fast & prompt with shipment. Would buy again from! This item was as they discribed on ebay.It was inthe condition they said it was also.

great great book. i was able to get at a great deal i am very happy with this purchase..thx again great shipping as`well..this book is actually really really good and again you save quite alot when you buy on Ebay

Good book, good motivation. Give some great reasons to get up and get busy to try to loose weight but even more so, to improve your health and well-being.

Great motivation and examples. Works out body and soul. Plus pictures of Bob working out...hot! This book puts the hard questions to you about why you aren't having success, and helps you change the way you think to achieve great things. After four days Ihave lost 4 pounds

Bob starts the book out with a bunch of self evaluation and breaking through the mental barriers of weight gain and loss. I didn't really relate to this section. However the food/nutrition section and the workout descriptions and plans were great. some of the moves in the strength training section are very difficult but with time this program could work for anyone. There is no nonsense to the truth of real weight loss and bob and this book can help you get started.

I really love reading this book. Not only is it about fitness but also about how to change the way you think about your self and life in general. I recommend everybody to read this book..........

I bought this book because I love The Biggest Loser and the trainers Bob and Jillian. I have purchased all the other books released relating to this show and have been most impressed! This is what everyone who needs to lose weight should read. This is real and practical tips and advice. I have been following their plan for almost three months and have lost 20 pounds. Bob helps you focus not only on your eating and exercise but changing your self from the inside out. I highly recommend this book to everyone!!!!!
