Not a day goes by that a new diet book -- or 10 -- is not published. Rare is the book, though, that comes with its own playing cards.
Yup, coinciding with the publication of the diet tome, "What's Your Diet Type?," authored by registered dietician Heather K. Jones and two Sacramentans (Dr. Ed Redard and fitness and wellness expert Mary Miscisin) are a set of cards that perfectly illustrate the book's premise.
We particularly liked "Diet Player" card, showing a mod-dressed woman with thought bubbles swirling around her head: "I want it NOW!" and "Today must be enjoyed...tomorrow may never come," and "Variety is the spice of life."
The book ($19, Hatherleigh Press, 267 pages) matches specific dieting plans with your personality type, using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.and other personality research. It really is more a look at the emotions and reasons why people overeat than a how-to weight-loss manual -- though it's included as well.
