Dietas y Recetas de Maria Antonieta
Author: Maria Antonieta Collins
En este libro, la autora intenta ayudar a todos los que padecen el calvario de la gordura desde la perspectiva de su propia experiencia. En primer lugar, se refiere a los componentes adictivos en el acto de comer. Comenta los síntomas y conductas más comunes en las personas involucradas en este problema, las actitudes personales de autocomplacencia y autoengaño, las principales causas de los repetidos fracasos al seguir una dieta y el eterno deambular por consultorios de profesionales -y no tan profesionales- que se dedican a resolver este problema.
María Antonieta afirma que no son las dietas las que fracasan sino nosotros. Lo crucial para tener éxito en la odisea para bajar de peso radica en la decisión personal y en la cabal comprensión de lo que ha llevado a cada persona hasta tal punto de sobrepeso. Resalta que lo importante no es bajar de peso sino el posterior mantenimiento en un peso adecuado, y para ello ofrece consejos prácticos de suma utilidad además de una gran variedad de recetas para comer bien y bajar, de peso.

Often putting her personal health at risk, celebrity Univision journalist Collins has tried everything in her long and constant struggle to lose weight and maintain it, from the latest and most popular diets and medications to special and costly treatments like acupuncture and body wraps. Having maintained her weight for over a year now, she tells her personal story and shares her hard-earned tips for winning the weight-loss battle. This is a frank, humorous, and informative book on a topic of great interest to most Hispanic/ Latina women. Collins draws examples from her personal experience to point out the dangers, myths, and general misinformation that prevail about weight loss. Along the way, she also gives readers a glimpse into the world of Univision, sharing stories about the personal weight management programs of other well-known personalities such as Jorge Ramos, Maria Elena Salinas, and Don Francisco. Even though she uses several sayings and colloquialisms from her native Mexico, she often provides explanatory comments for the non-Mexican reader. The easy and nutritious sample diets and recipes use measurements in kilos and liters, but many recent Hispanic immigrants will be familiar with these measuring systems. Highly recommended for all public libraries and bookstores. Yolanda Cuesta, Sacramento, CA Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
