Quit Digging Your Grave with a Knife and Fork, provides readers with sound, straightforward advice and an easy-to-follow approach that is not focused on losing weight, but on making permanent changes to start living a healthy life.
“Novo Nordisk is dedicated to addressing the diabetes crisis among the Puerto Rican population by empowering people with inspiring educational tools,” said Dr. Soraly Servera, regional scientific director for Novo Nordisk in Princeton, N.J. “We were moved by Gov. Huckabee’s book, which takes readers on the journey from his type 2 diabetes diagnosis to a lifetime of lasting fitness. We translated this book to offer hope and support for achieving optimal health to the Puerto Rican community.”
Gov. Huckabee’s inspirational book has won bi-partisan praise from former President Bill Clinton and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger who called Huckabee’s lifestyle change, “a model for our nation as we fight an obesity epidemic.”
The highly motivational and witty book offers readers a 12-STOP program which outlines 12 behaviors that must be stopped to break free of unhealthy habits. The first three include:
* STOP Procrastinating: Set a date, not a timeframe, to start your weight loss program. Why not today?!
* STOP Making Excuses: Take responsibility for your lack of motivation. You can just die dying or die trying!
* STOP Sitting on the Couch: This is the first step towards creating an effective exercise program. Set realistic and reachable goals. Set yourself up for success, not disappointment.
