Ever been drawn to a book with a title that screams 'weight-loss magic'? This isn't that. The abundance of information on the topic is so overwhelming, how do you find your way? There's a forest of diet books out there and weight-loss apps sprout like mushrooms.

Somewhere in the mist of movies past (lots & lots of movies) the author found a few markers to guide his way-to the only biological fact that matters: burn more calories than you consume. The only unique thing about all this stuff-food, exercise, and weight loss-is you. How do you find your way, and what does any of this have to do with watching movies?

And what's with the shameless, attention-seeking title, and the pandering attempt to address a serious topic with a bit of humor?

Like everything else about this book...
