Review:
This manual will reveal to you all the secrets of permanent fat loss. It is written by a man who has discovered these secrets the hard way - through long years of trial and error. Using the information in this manual will allow you master the art and science of losing body fat by a shorter and less costly route; by "modeling" those who have gone before you and learning from an expert. The primary goals of this manual are to help you lose fat permanently without drugs, supplements or gimmicks and to educate you in the process of losing fat. In other words, my goal is to turn you into a "fat loss expert"… to teach you the reasons why and help you to understand the process…and to do so without bias or ulterior motive.
