French Women Don’t Get Fat

French Women Don’t Get Fat” is based on the principle that by adopting the diet and lifestyle patterns of French women it is possible to maintain a healthy figure while avoiding the experience of deprivation that is common with most diets.

The author of the book, Mireille Guiliano, recommends eating for pleasure and to focus on the enjoyment of food. No foods are forbidden so long as the portions are kept small. She says that the biggest secret of French women is that they learn to eat with their heads and choose their indulgences wisely.

She emphasizes quality over quantity, eating slowly, savoring the unique flavors of each food and to stop eating when satisfied.
