Sacramento Health & Fitness Blog

Presenting the latest research on health issues and fitness trends in the region and the nation.

The previous post about the new book, "What's Your Diet Type?," got me thinking about all the catchy names publishers slap on the numerous diet tomes on the market.

Just peering at the bookshelf at my cubicle, I can see a few. Here are some of the ones I've seen that make me laugh (which burns calories, by the way):

* "Skinny Chicks Don't Eat Salad"

* "Lessons From the Fat-o-Sphere"

* "Why Your Last Diet Failed And How This Book Won't Help You on Your Next One"

*  "The Hacker's Diet: How to Lose Weight and Hair Through Stress and Poor Nutrition."

* "The No 'S' Diet"

* "The Black Book of Hollywood Diet Secrets"

* "Half-Assed: A Weight-Loss Memoir"

What's your favorite diet book title?  

UPDATE AT 2:20 P.M.: I just received an email from the publisher Simon & Schuster about a new diet book coming out this month. Title: "Nice Girls Finish Fat" I kid you not.
