Review:

Millionaire businessman Roger Troy Wilson has been on the high end of the scale – over 400 pounds – and wants to share his weight-loss discoveries with as many people as he can. In Let’s Do Lunch, Wilson reveals his own size struggles, and what he credits God for as his health solutions.

It is designed to be a simple plan to follow, stressing fresh fruits and healthy carbs, with proteins in moderation. He makes it clear that he is not a medical professional, but someone who overcame extreme food cravings through years of experimentation. And his success is obvious from the book cover photos.

Full of helpful strategies, a 14-day meal plan, and recipes, this book is similar to other diet books that have been published in the last few years. What is different is Wilson’s own story, and his passion for helping others that seems to leap off the page. An immensely encouraging book and an easy read, Let’s Do Lunch is worth its weight in fruit smoothees! – Anne Walker, Christian Book Previews.com

Book Jacket:

Roger Troy Wilson weighed 425 pounds and had a 5-foot waist. He had given up on losing weight and prayed that he would die and go to Heaven.

After fifteen years of experimenting with different foods and eating patterns, he discovered how to actually have fun losing weight easily---almost the complete opposite of most diets. He lost 230 pounds and 24 inches from his waist.

Today Wilson has maintained his weight loss for years. "You do not need to exercise or count carbs. You can do it without portioning and shakes and chemicals," says Wilson. In Let's Do Lunch, he reveals:

• the dumbest thing we all do that keeps us from losing weight
• which "non-fattening" foods are actually fattening
• special ways to eliminate cravings
• where to go and what to get when you want to eat something quick

Once you've read Let's Do Lunch, you'll never think of eating any other way.
