Small Changes, Big Results is not about cutting all the carbohydrates out of your diet. Or, replacing every single gram of sugar with omega-3 fatty acids. It's not about doing one hundred sit-ups a day, or getting on the treadmill whenever you have a free second. In fact, it's not about any of the total lifestyle-replacement gimmicks-whether diet, exercise, or pop psychology-that have swept our culture in recent years, putting untold millions of Americans on the risky roller coaster of success and failure the defines fad diets and programs. Not here.

 

Small Changes, Big Results is about reality-the reality of what you can do, the reality of what you want to do, and the reality of what works. It's about introducing a series of small changes each week for three months in the three core areas of diet and nutrtion; exercise and fitness; and emotional wellness. For each of the twelve weeks, nutritionalist Ellie Krieger introduces a very finite, completely practical action plan for the week-and not only are these tasks incredibly doable, they're in fact so accessible that it's tough not to be inspired.

 

But these small changes do in fact lead to big results. The beauty of this program is that none of these action steps is remotely intimidating, because they're not a full immersion into a totally new lifestyle. Instead, it's a series of incremental changes-removing bad habits one by one, while at the same time adding good ones. There's nothing to scare you off-on the contrary, here's a whole book full of small changes that produce big results.
