Product Description:
Developed by weight-loss experts Drs. James O. Hill and John C. Peters, co-founders of America on the Moveā„¢, The Step Diet Book is a motivational walking program that will help millions of overweight Americans lose weight and keep it off forever.

Combining a book and pedometer--in itself a $20 value--plus conversion charts and dozens of fat-burning Step Recipes, this is a complete package. At its core is a simple concept called energy balance. Calories come in, calories go out--and when intake is greater than output, you gain weight. The Step Diet Book attacks the problem from both ends. First, use the pedometer to figure out how many steps you take in an average day, then raise the number by 2,000--it's as easy as pacing while talking on the phone, or parking at the far end of the lot. Second, eat one-quarter less of your food--which counteracts our tendency to supersize meals. Once balance is achieved, get fit and lose weight by adding more steps to your day. You can even enjoy a guilt-free lapse by knowing exactly how many steps to tack on at the end of your day.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A kinder, gentler approach to exercise and weight loss
Note: I obtained this book used and so received the book only, not the included pedomter.

I was interested in The Step Diet because after purchasing a pedometer (not the one that came with this book), I was looking for some simple, easy strategies to increase my daily step totals. I should preface my comments by saying that I am not exactly the book's intended target audience: I am not trying to lose weight, and I already exercise daily. However, when I am NOT exercising, I am fairly ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - One Small Step for Man
I lost 8 pounds in 4 weeks following the concepts in this book. I have finally set goals for my weight. I'm walking myself to a better place. Thank you.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Totally great and helpful
I really like this book. It's helped to motivate me to walk more every day while wearing my pedometer. I've been sidelined by a knee injury for the last two years and cannot go to a gym in spite of physical therapy and doctor's care. This book helped me to realize I can still do something to keep in shape and helped to inspire me to get moving on a regular basis again. Somehow counting steps makes you feel more accountable for your habits and just tweaking my routine has helped me to get in to better ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Good walking advice, not very informed diet information
Although I got some really good statistics on walking and how calories are burned and tips on how to increase my steps, I totally disagreed with their discussions on diets. There was very little documentation to back up broad statements on the (in their view) positive use of sweetners and very little information on the choice of using natural foods as opposed to processed foods.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Impressed
The book has been very useful. Good sound advice. Supports what my Dr. says---Move more and adjust what you eat. Addresses what needs to be done long term---not just another one of those fad diets.
