Eat Your Way to Sexy ($16.95, 242 pp), by Elizabeth Somer, M.A., R.D., brings a sexy spin to dieting. The book outlines the S-Ex-Y (Sensual Extraordinary You) Diet, as well as tips and tricks to make readers feel attractive and comfortable in their own skin. Small changes to your daily diet can make the biggest differences, according to Somer. To prove this, she includes graphs and statistics of calories burned in a day by completing routine tasks. The book empathizes weight loss through moderation and activities, but also wants the reader to have fun and feel sexy while doing so, too.
