This will not make you thin

Clever marketing is one thing, but companies that take their gimmicky weight loss products seriously is a laughing matter. I'm astounded at the number of supplements, devices, topical formulas and books that are advertised as capable of promoting specific amounts of weight loss practically overnight. Everyone knows true weight loss takes time and careful planning.

"I Can Make You Thin" is a book authored by Paul McKenna, who is not really considered a nutritionist, dietician, physician or other specialist. He actually writes other self-help books, including titles like "Quit Smoking Today Without Gaining Weight" and "I Can Mend Your Broken Heart." Most of the tips in these books are common sense, so I would save my $20 and invest it towards a good supplement.
