My favorite thing about this book was that it was focused on weight management as opposed to strict diets. People who pick up books with this content do so usually because they are looking for new solutions to old problems. As someone who's dealt with weight issues, as well as had a problematic relationship with food, I believe in acquiring knowledge in order to figure out what works for you. Smart People Don't Diet focuses on basics that often get overlooked when it comes to fad diets. It's really important to understand the basics of nutrition in order to develop sustainable eating and lifestyle changes in habits.

No single book will give you magical solutions to your problems but this book will definitely add to your arsenal of important knowledge related to your health, weight and eating habits. It's a quick, easy read and is more focused on changing your habits vs simple dieting.

A big thank you to NetGalley and Perseus Books Group, Da Capo Press for gifting me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

Very cool idea for a book, and an excellent execution of that idea. A thoroughly enjoyable read. Recommended. .
