This is Why You're Fat by Jackie Warner Giveaway

This is Why You're Fat has made the NY Times Bestseller list!!  Time to get ready for the summer/beach season!!

The star of Bravo’s "Work Out" talks diet, fitness and what’s coming up on her hit show.

Fitness guru Jackie Warner heads back to Bravo this April and promises an even edgier version of her hit show, "Work Out."
Dressed down in jeans and sneakers — her trademark spikey hair grown out — the reality TV star sat down with FOXNews.com and discussed fitness, food, her show and even her love life.
"I’m so excited," said Warner, who is surprisingly smaller in person than the larger-than-life character she portrays on the small screen. "It’s just so different than anything else that’s on Bravo. It was shot documentary-style. We had two digital cameras. We were constantly moving. It’s just edgier."

What’s the biggest fitness myth?

You can skip meals and lose weight. I have all of these women who come to me and they’re obese and the one thing they all have in common is that they skip meals. If you skip a meal, then with the next meal you have, you become a fat-storing machine.
If you let your blood sugar drop then the next thing you eat is going to be stored as fat. You need to eat smaller meals, more frequently. As long as you skip meals, you’ll never have the body you want. There will always be something you can’t get rid of.

What are the best foods to eat?

I’m big on label reading. I do grocery shopping tours to help people learn exactly what to eat. My thing is, I don’t look at fat. I don’t look at carbs. I look at calories: nothing over 400 calories and nine grams of sugar for meals. For snacks, I say no more than 150 calories. That works out to 1,500 calories a day, which is about what the average woman should have.

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.
