'Don’t Lose Your Mind, Lose Your Weight’ is considered as a path-breaking book by many as it which has helped them to lose weight without giving up on food or without leading them to periods of crash diet and bad health.
A celebrity fitness expert to whom many Bollywood actors and actresses owe their great shape and health, Rujuta Diwekar speaks to the readers in clear and simple words how a person can eat anything s/he feels like and yet remain healthy, maintaining a good shape. As a leading nutritionist, Diwekar is against the idea of any crash diet that looms over carb-starvation, needless food cravings and other similar things which ultimately lead to a food deprived body.
The book guides the readers through certain simple steps to an ideal way of dieting or maintaining a healthy and proper diet. It helps the user understand their own respective bodies and likewise helps them plan their own diet according to the bodies requirements.
Since she is the celebrity dietician behind many leading Bollywood actors, Ms Diwekar often cites the case of Kareena Kapoor about how she was able to attain the size zero for the successful film Tashan. Her book shows how one can indulge in their favourite foods yet manage to shed calories at the same time. Referred to as a marvellous and helpful read, this book was published in 2009 by RHI publishers and is available in paperback

Review
This book is all about altering your thinking about Dieting, and it works. This is not a ordinary diet book where they throw on you a diet chart ,asks you to follow and loose weight. That never works,because our culture is so diverse,what people eat daily changes every 100 kms,so a Mumbaikar making a diet chart will not work for guy living in Meerut,U.P. He might be able to survive for a week or two but thats it then his genes will take over and he'll end up eating ghar ka bana mummy ke haath ka khana(in our families the amount of love is shown by the amount of ghee/chaunk/oil in our food). So what Rujuta does is,tell us,how does your digestion work,a few tips (a lot actually) and her 4 principles of eating,gives us a few ideas what should we prefer to eat (I hope there were some more) and even lets us eat Samosas,Gulab Jamun,Parathas,Pizza etc(No this is not a typo,this is actually a part of your diet), the only thing what changes is WHEN you eat. She just alters our When,and asks us to eat everything including Cheese. For 119 bucks I would definitely recommend this. Now that you have tried (and failed) all the dietings known to mankind,just spend another 100 bucks and give this a shot. My final Verdict- Game Changer --Shikhar Sharma Oct 18, 2011
Rujuta manages to combine all the scientific knowledge that we need to know about the food we eat with a very humorous twist. There's also a bit of spirituality thrown in which makes it a unique read for me. Following the advice outlined in this book, I have been able to lose more than 12 kilos in 9 months and more importantly have not gained it back. I have changed my way of eating radically and at the same time eating the same food which I have eaten all my life. Thank you Rujuta for showing us a simple route on this lifelong quest :) --Krishna A Dec 13, 2012Rent & Security Return Pollicy
