I'm a former personal trainer and one of my biggest battles was that people would come to me after giving up. Most fitness books preach that there is one way to get fit and healthy. The truth is most of us need a combination of approaches. Lists of improving health works with the task oriented mind set of today's clients. Since training, I suffered from a disabling illness that left me bedridden. I'm now trying to regain may strength and these "healthy list reminders" would be a great asset.

I LOVE lists - my life is driven by my lists! This book would be perfect for me. It is different because it is in a format that I readily use every single day - wahoo!

vamptriana4evr 10-07-2010 @ 2:00PM

I think as a culture that lists help to orient us in the right direction. Many people work there whole day around a list of things that they need to do so using this techinique to teach people healthy habits is ingenious!!! I would love to win a copy of this new and innovative book!

I am a list FANATIC, RN, and health and wellness coac. Type A to the 10th power! This book would enhance my lifestyle, along with that of my clients. Pick me, pick me! :)

This looks good - anything that puts a lot of info in a useable and short form can only help me with my health goals!

Jackie 10-08-2010 @ 10:44AM

I have been living by lists for years--can't live without them! This would help keep me organized. I've never seen anything like it before! :)

THIS BOOK IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE IT WAS COMPILED BY MY FAVORITE MAGAZINE,PREVENTION!!!!

Bobbi Skidmore 10-12-2010 @ 10:47AM

This book appears to be very focused and on-point. Something absolutely essential in order to not just read it, but apply it to real life.

Jeannie 10-12-2010 @ 11:37AM

I love to do lists, i have created one on my outlook now so my husband can check whet HE needs to do also, no way for him or me to say Oh I forgot !! thank you so much for this book, I am sure i will love it .

Judy Paulson 10-12-2010 @ 5:10PM

It seems that I need direction and setting of goals. It looks like this book is the thing that can help me eat healthier and have a better healthy lifestyle as it seems like I am drifting ainlessly as my health worsens--heart disease and diabetes.

Susan 10-13-2010 @ 6:18AM

I love Prevention and know that this book must be fabulous. I also keep myself on track with so many things by making and completing lists.
Hope I win.

carol myers 10-13-2010 @ 6:29AM

Any book that has lists,(I ama list person), sounds like the book for me! Looks like a great idea.

Ravyn 10-13-2010 @ 6:44PM

This is a great idea! For those that hate to read through books that may seem preachy or self-helpish, this book helps people focus on easy to-dos they can mark off a list. It increases your sense of accomplishment through visual accounting of the steps you've taken while putting you in gear to make better choices and make changes in your daily habits.

Ann Marie 10-13-2010 @ 7:19AM

This book sounds very readable. For me, lists are a way of staying on top of things. Since the lists are specific to a topic, it is easy to look for your special interest or need of the moment and do a quick read. That's the beauty of this book's format, and why I want to win one!

Ive been a yo yo diet person all my life. Ive bought and read every diet book available. Ive lost weight and gained it back. This book not only helps you loose weight, but helps you maintain. It has everything from hair care products to helping you sleep at night. I was a surgical tech for 28 years and anyone that works in a surgical environment knows that when you finally do get your lunch, you have to gobble it down as fast ans you can so you can get back to finish your case. And sales reps are always bringing in doughnuts and all kinds of sweets. And holidays, forget it. They bring in baskets of cookies, fudge, all those Christmas cheeses and crackers. Im 60 years old and retired a year ago. Ive packed on at least 20 lbs. I believe this book could really help me loose the weight in a healthy way and maintain it. Among the other advantages the book has. Pick me please.

Ret Fortuna 10-13-2010 @ 7:13AM

Due to medications I had to take for a year, I gained 25 lbs which this particular medication does to everyone. Now that I no longer need the medication, I'm stuck with the 25 lbs or rather the 20 lbs. I have managed to lose 5 of them by eating more salads and vegetables and dropped cheese altogether. I think this book will help me get back to a healthy weight.

Rosemary Spray 10-13-2010 @ 7:17AM

I would love to win a copy of this book. I LOVE lists and lists motivate me to make all kinds of healthy choices in my life. I have lost 50 pounds for good, which I won't gain back partly because of lists I follow. Please pick me to win a copy of List Maker's Get Healthy Guide. I already have several Prevention Magazine books which I have really liked.

Gwen Shepperson 10-13-2010 @ 8:26AM

I need a guide to go buy. I am one of those people who needs a hand on staple to help with me choosing the right food choices. I have had gastric bypass in 2004, it was successful. I want to keep it that way. I gained back 30lbs due to having twins, so i'm working hard to get it lost again.I will be the only one in my house to be concious about my eating habits. its hard because I feel alone on it with little support. Not sabatage, but people not understanding whats going on in our bodies and since I know I can't use ignorance as an excuse. I.m looking for anything to keep me on track.

Caroline 10-13-2010 @ 8:41AM

In general I am a pretty healthy person and I try and eat and stay healthy when possible. I read whatever I can about nutrition and always try to be informed. I am skeptical and curious about your book and would like to read why "you" think this book is for me.

Kimberly Cram 10-13-2010 @ 9:59AM

I have started (almost) everyday with a "list" since I was about 12 yrs old. I picked up the habit from my Grandmother who was an avid list maker. Now I make lists for just about everything I do! I would LOVE to have a copy of this book to use as a daily quick reference guide, to help me make better choices. What makes this book different from other 'get healthy guides' is what I love most about it! It's direct, to the point, simple to follow and extremely USEFUL!! I can apply it to my everyday life in the real world! :)
