7 Secrets The Weight Loss Industry Will Never Tell You
I commented on someone elses review but really felt the need to do my own - I warn people against purchasing this "Brochure" - if you are interested in the program just go straight the website and save your money because the book is a blatant way for the author to make more money - I wouldn't touch this program purely because of his lack of integrity. I have read many many weight loss books and have never been so angry with any one of them - this is the first review I have written, in the hope of saving at least one person from purchasing this ridiculous rubbish posing as some sort of "new information". What an insult to all the briiliant people in the industy who write honest books, giving true information that they believe to be effective, Graham Park behaves as if he has found the "secret" WHAT A JOKE. Save your money.You can find my copy at the tip for FREE.
 Simple, Life Changing ... It Works! May 11, 2009
I hadn't seen Graham Park for a number of years and only ever knew him as a heavy man who always wanted to lose weight. When I met him again a few months ago and he was slim and healthy I was very interested in his story as to how he lost his weight.
Losing weight is not about dieting, it is about changing your mind set, changing your mental image of who the new you will look like. It's about developing new eating habits that suit you and your body.
The experts that Graham draws from the in book and the simple explanations of the science he uses are very reader friendly, if you have no science background.
If Graham Park can lose weight permanently, anyone can. It's a matter of changing your habits to change your life.

Don't Waste Your Money... Mar 27, 2009
It's interesting to note that all the positive reviews on this site come from around Brisbane, Australia. What a coincidence that Graham Park also comes from Brisbane, Australia. You can draw your own conclusions.
This book is nothing more than an infomercial for the weight loss program Mr Park is selling. There is no information in the book that is not well documented in almost every discussion on weight loss. 'Eat less, exercise more', oh I almost forgot, take vitamin supplements, and guess what, Mr Park sells those as well. So what are the seven 'Secrets'?
1. The weight loss industry is built on repeat business, (who would have thought!)
2. Synthetic food is not the answer (eat real food, not something out of a packet, now we are getting somewhere)
3. Surgery is always dangerous (don't have bariatric surgery, it might kill you)
4. No more miracle cures please (weight loss pills don't work, yes we know that)
5. Food is not the enemy (learn to eat the right things in the correct portions, ok)
6. Exercise won't do it. (food intake is more important than exercise, the only thing he says that is
of any real value, the exercise industry has us all brainwashed, I agree).
7. You do not need to be on diets forever (see Point 4. above)
So that's it. No need to buy the book now. You won't learn any more than this, and of course lots of information on how to buy into Mr Parks' weight loss program at $300 a month and how important 'supplements' are, that he also sells.
I was well and truly ripped off with the purchase of this book. $24.95 I will never see again.
Perhaps Mr Park should have added an eighth 'Secret'.
SECRET 8 - People in the weight loss industry write books pretending to give advise when they are really just trying to flog their weight loss program.
Don't waste your money.

No actual answers Mar 14, 2009
I bought this book in hopes of finding a new direction to take with dieting. The book spends chapters and chapters giving self-congratulatory teasers about the wonderful program that will really, really work. Within these chapters the author also derides other diet programs "exposing" the shocking money-hungry diet industry. When you finally get to the end all ready to see what this great new direction should be...it turns out that the entire book was a commercial for the author's diet program. That's right, a commercial for which I paid good money--boy, do I feel foolish! Don't make the same mistake I did, pass up this expensive infomercial.

The REAL secrets are not here. Those will cost you. Mar 05, 2009
So you see the dramatic picture of author and make the assumption that he is going to share the secrets of his success with you. Well, not really. This book contains some interesting information but not anything shocking about the diet industry itself. I think we all know that it exists mainly to separate us from our money whether we lose weight or not. The kicker to this book was at the end. When you get to the end you discover that the author will be glad to share exactly how he lost all that weight and will help you develop a personalized plan...For $300 a month. $300 a month after you take a battery of blood tests. Don't buy this book expecting to receive specific informaiton that will help you lose weight and keep it off like the author did. In that respect the book is misleading. His diet plan probably does work but this is a review of the book which in the end only leads you to his website. $300 a month for a diet and weightloss plan almost makes it seem as if Mr. Park is part of that diet industry he disparages.
