～瘦不下來、無法持之以恆，可能是觀念錯了～1日1題，31道關於瘦身的「二選一」在1個月內讓你的常識180度大轉變！【本書特色】◎從「觀念」、「知識」到「實踐」，循序漸進引導讀者建立正確瘦身常識。◎特別挑選一般人容易搞錯的觀念，設計出最關鍵的31道選擇題。◎可從感興趣的問題開始讀起，每天1題，輕鬆閱讀無負擔。根據調查結果顯示，開始減肥的人有八成以上遭遇挫折。不過，這些「用什麼方法都瘦不下來」、「遇到挫折」的人，只不過是在每個當下做了錯誤的「選擇」。本書收錄了幫助大家成功瘦身並持之以恆的31道關鍵選擇題。在開始減肥前或是開始減肥的頭一個月，每天讀一題。讀完之後，自然而然就會懂得如何做出讓減肥和運動持之以恆的選擇。現在，就來考考各位──Q1.量體重的頻率？A 每天B 一週一次【正確答案】B 一週一次別再為了體重而心情起伏不定，才是通往成功的捷徑。Q2.減肥最重要的是？A 不吃碳水化合物B 每餐吃一碗白飯【正確答案】B 每餐吃一碗白飯人活著就需要能量。燃燒脂肪需要能量；為了增加肌肉量，也需要蛋白質和醣類。也就是說，如果沒有充分攝取碳水化合物，身體就會愈來愈不容易變瘦。所以別再說「碳水化合物是減肥的大敵」！Q3.只做一件事的話你會選哪個？A 提早一站下車走路B 在車站都走樓梯【正確答案】B 在車站都走樓梯想要改變身體就必須做高強度運動，帶給身體足以破壞肌肉組織的強烈刺激（負荷）。對於有體力在平地行走的人而言，只走一站的距離屬於日常動作的範圍，稱不上是運動。你都答對了嗎？現在就開始一起建立正確的瘦身知識，成功打造理想身材不復胖！
