How do French women do it?
This is the book that unlocks the simple Secrets of 'the French paradox' - how to enjoy food and stay slim and healthy. Irresistible, chic, convincing, funny, wise, and very timely, this is the ultimate non-diet book, which could change the way we think and live - showing us how to eat with balance, control and above all pleasure.
Throw away all the radical diet books, think about what you eat and why, and then enjoy eating the right things (and some of the wrong ones) intelligently, and in smaller portions. Eat, like a French woman, with your head not your stomach, so advises Mireille Guiliano.
French born and bred, Guiliano combines just the right balance of delightfully written memoir, wisdom, wit, delicious recipes, and Gallic common sense. As a student, she went to America and came back fat . . . That taught her a lesson about culture and eating habits that she has never forgotten.
