In Just 10 LBS, intervention specialist Brad Lamm brings a fresh eye to weight loss, focusing not on the what of eating, but on the how and why. As a companion piece to The Dr. Oz Show's major, year-long initiative to change the health of America, this book discards the notion of overhauling life with the vague dream of being thin and challengesthe reader to focus on losing just 10 pounds.

Covering everything from body image to restrictive beliefs to developing a quiet, focusing daily practice, Lamm discusses all aspects of the emotional and self-esteem issues surrounding weight and food. And he puts them together into a 10-step program that begins with identifying your eating style—emotional eater, pleasure eater, energy eater, external eater, or critical eater—and ends with a discussion on the importance of "paying it forward," or giving back the gifts you've gotten. Also included is an action-oriented 30-day plan to help readers get a jump start on their weight-loss efforts.

JUST 10: Jumpstart Your Weight Loss (Dr. OZ, air date: 12/18/10)
Praise

"When Brad Lamm first shared with me the idea of 'Mend, Move, and Maintain,' it immediately struck me as a powerful way for us to make—and keep—the lifestyle changes we most need to stay at a healthy weight. Mend your soul. Move your body. And maintain a healthy weight. It's that easy. . . . Just 10 LBS offers a jump start for lasting personal transformation. It is based on proven medical science, and I have seen with my own eyes just how effective Brad and his program can be."
Mehmet Oz, M.D., from the Foreword of Just 10 LBS

"Brad has become a Bodhisattva who goes back into the perils he left behind to show others the way out. Brad can help you navigate the way to truth, love, and healing."
Alice Walker, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Color Purple
Look Inside
Introduction

You're cleaning out your attic and you find a dusty lamp with a lid on the top. Although it looks to be about 1,000 years old, there's a magical glow around it, an aura. You immediately recognize it for what it is: a genie's lamp. You look around for a clean place to sit down—you, your lamp, and your future that just became brighter than a bucket of sunshine. Your heart pounds as you remove the lid, rub the lamp, and wait for something magical to occur. For a few seconds, nothing happens; and you start peeking around from side to side, hoping no one has noticed the biggest fool in the world. Just then, a huge cloud of smoke spews from the lamp, spitting out your own personal genie. He's about 9 feet tall, smells like mothballs, and looks a lot like Mr. Clean. He is about to grant you three wishes.

A recent poll of genies revealed that everyone who is granted three wishes uses one for becoming thin. Wanting to be thinner is one of those givens, like the fact that we all want to win the lottery; look like Halle Berry, Cindy Crawford, or George Clooney; and get a television set so enormous the neighbors can see what we're watching. People who don't want to better their bodies a tiny bit simply don't exist. Rub. Poof. Wish. Voilà? If only.

I'm not your personal genie. I'm someone just like you. I used to have a food problem that sent my weight up and down so many times I could have passed for a seesaw. I can't grant you three wishes, but making your dreams a reality is what I'm all about. I can help you discover how to weigh what you want, stop hating yourself every time a piece of candy or a chunk of chocolate crosses your lips, and be at peace with your body.
