NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jan 21, 2014) - Most people who have been on a fad diet would agree: Diets really do suck! Starvation, deprivation, calorie counting, and constant cravings are no way to live... and they rarely lead to long-term weight-loss success. In their new book, Diets Suck! A Remarkably Inspiring Story of Physical & Emotional Transformation, authors Stephen Adele and Sue Mosebar reveal the seven secrets that go beyond just dieting and result in achieving real, lasting changes in your body, your health, and your life.

Diets Suck! is certainly not your typical weight-loss book. Rather than preach rules of nutrition or tout some new eating craze, the authors share the story of Audrey Smith, a fictional character based on true events. As Audrey embarks on her weight-loss journey, she learns seven simple yet remarkably powerful lessons that, if followed, will transform anyone's mind and body, helping them to regain their health, happiness, and life.

While exercise and healthy, structured eating practices are part of the authors' body transformation process, they spend much time helping people change their thoughts, not just the foods they eat. "People are most amazed that I don't focus on food rules and that I promote starting the body transformation process in the head rather than in the stomach," says Adele. "I've learned over the years that the greatest gift you can give yourself is the gift of a strong mind, which can yield extraordinary dividends in the form of a stronger, healthier, and more energetic body."

But does Adele's philosophy really work for weight-loss? Yes! The proof can be found in the hundreds upon hundreds of successful transformation stories the authors have witnessed, some of which are featured in the book. They provide real-world evidence that making lasting change, from the lessons shared in Diets Suck!, is in fact possible. "And it doesn't matter if you're 25 or 75, overweight, or just want to go from good to great in your physique -- this program can work for anyone willing to follow it to the letter, just like the others before you," says Adele. "By following practices in Diets Suck!, you'll experience not just a body transformation, but also a life transformation."

Diets Suck! can be found in bookstores nationwide, or online at Amazon.com. To learn more about the authors and the Diets Suck! book, visit www.DietsSuckBook.com.
