  Let's face it - women simply do not lose weight or build muscle as easily as men. Drawing on fascinating recent research that has shed new light on the gender differences in metabolism and the effect of exercise, the editors of Women's Health , the healthy lifestyle magazine for today's active woman, have devised a weight-loss plan that is designed for women who would like to lose anywhere from 5 to 25 pounds.The key features of the Women's Health Perfect Body Diet include: glucomannan, a soluble fibre that helps dieters feel full faster and, therefore, eat less throughout the day; meal plans that focus on fibre; a whole-body approach that considers the importance of hormones, digestion, blood sugar levels, muscle mass, and bone maintenance; dieting techniques that revolve around psychological needs, personal goals, and lifestyle; and, two diet plans to choose from - one higher in fats and lower in carbs, the other higher in carbs and lower in fats (simple food tests help women choose the type they need). In addition to the customized eating plan - complete with 75 easy-to-prepare recipes - there is a vigorous, customized fitness program consisting of 50 exercises designed to bring results in just three weeks.
