About the Book

When it comes to love, friendship, broken hearts and growing up, author Judy Corstjens works a lilting magic and when she tackles the battle of the bulge, she writes with exacting candor. An inspiring and often touching self-help book, Xtensity: Why 5% of Dieters Succeed entertains as it takes on the ups and downs of a woman's life. At seventeen Jane Cohen is without a boyfriend and without a place to live. Flabby and prone to overeat, she's confused and frustrated at her inability to change her shape. When she meets Faith, a plump and fortuitous sort of young women, Jane's luck begins to change. While it doesn't help that they work at an advertising firm that has clients such as McDonald's and Mars, between the two of them they figure out what they are really hungry for - lasting love and freedom from dieting. Out of necessity they piece together why calorie counting never works and how their clients create the very food that makes them overeat. One adopts the Xtensity diet, steering away from what the author calls "intense" foods, and loses weight, while the other argues against it and elects to embrace a fuller figure. While readers will sympathise with both characters, Jane and Faith's friendship is challenged by their different choices. In chapters with titles such as, "How Dieting Makes You Fat," "The Fetish of Thin," and "Faith's Objection: The Problem of Pleasure," the author illustrates how Xtensity works by enabling you to consume exactly the right amount of healthy food each day, while avoiding the cravings and sense of deprivation that can destroy your resolve. Through this captivating story you will gain a new understanding of the problem of weight loss, and be inspired to find a comfortable relationship with food in your own life.
