Lie There and Lose Weight (ePub)

"Lie There and Lose Weight arrived this morning; I read most of it then and there. It's charming, intelligent, personal and you might pick up a few pointers in the read. I like best of all that it's Ordover's story, no one else's, and no lectures! In a world of endless weight-loss books it's nice to find one that speaks a personal truth and perhaps there may be some truth in it for me... and you too." - CCH Pounder

"The best weight loss book I have ever read. So much of what John Ordover writes I have experienced, felt and dealt with.

Now I'm dealing with major physical issues, gained 25 pounds, and am wanting my old body and clothes back. I was feeling the futility of it all and was buoyed ... by learning I could lose weight without running a 5K 3 times a week." - Becky Large, Champion Autism Network."
