Since announcing the forthcoming launch of my 1st book, I have been overwhelmed by your show of support and encouragement and a bit of pokes here and there to spill out what the book is about.
It's also been interesting reading the guesses about what genre this could be.

I didn't plan to keep this to myself for long, so today I'm spilling it!
Those of you who know me will remember that in 2018, I took the bold decision to address my overweight. That's just putting it mildly. Truth is at the time I was officially obese and my BMI had crept up to the red range of the NHS BMI scale.
Anyone who grew up with me could not believe I could ever get that big. However I found the right information, applied it and in 6 months, I transformed my body and have since regained control of my weight. I learnt a lot along the way and have decided to put these in a book to help as many people who may still be struggling with overweight or be caught up in the vicious 'diet - lose weight - regain weight' cycle.
Why I decided to write?

Why I decided to write?
- I am passionate about sharing knowledge. I believe knowledge becomes power only when it is applied and shared.
- Obesity has become one of the top 5 morbidity factors globally. Around 50% adults are trying to lose weight at any given time yet the obesity rate keeps rising.
- There are too many complicated diet fads out there but weight loss is not supposed to be complex. People just don't have the correct information.
- Underlying health issues strongly linked to overweight and obesity played a big part in the high rate of Covid19 fatalities. The BAME community in particular was hit hard hence the need for this call to action.
In this book, I share how anyone can lose weight in a simple, straight forward, and sustainable manner; with some small lifestyle changes that are easy to implement; cuisines from anywhere in the world; and familiar food ingredients that are readily available and easily accessible. (not something that grows only on one tree in the Amazon or is found on only one mountain in the Himalayas 😊)
I am extending an invitation to anyone who would like to join my book launch team.
