Jamie Pope

A trip to remember

When mistakes haunt your every choice, how do you find the courage to follow your own heart? An unstable childhood and a bad marriage have left Nova unable to trust anyone--especially herself. She'd do anything for her young son, but feels she'll never be a good enough mother. She's got major talent as a stylist and makeup artist, but big-time success would mean leaving the safety of Martha's Vineyard and the only family she has left. Still, she needs to kick-start her life in a new direction. The last thing she needs is her childhood frenemy, Tanner Brennan, confusing her even more. An Ex-Army Ranger, Tanner was looking for peace and routine when he came back home to Martha's Vineyard. Scrapping with Nova reminds him of the hopeful boy he was, before secrets and guilt closed him off. But there's no way he can fight her raw vulnerability--or his longing to become part of her life. And as their all-too-fragile bond is threatened in ways they never expected, he and Nova have only one chance to finally come to terms with the past--and find the future in each other.

In this newly revised edition of the New York Times bestseller, Jamie Pope and Martin Katahn offer an informative, practical guide to low-fat eating that will help you lose weight while lowering your risk of disease. With listings of more than 2,000 foods, you'll find all the valuable information you need to make informed decisions about your diet. In this edition, the authors have updated listings, including total fat, saturated fat, calories, fiber, and sodium in the foods you eat each day; and they have, for the first time, listed grams of carbohydrates for each food. With up-to-date information on disease-fighting phytochemicals, the best sources of essential vitamins and minerals, and cholesterol content for many foods, this is an invaluable guide for anyone concerned with optimizing their food choices, achieving a healthy body weight, and preventing disease.

The T-Factor Fat Gram Counter grew out of The T-Factor Diet, the first popular diet book to show that fat was (and is) the major culprit in the American diet. All calories, Dr. Martin Katahn told us, are not created equal: his metabolic studies showed that the fat we consume in our food, as opposed to the carbohydrate and protein, is converted most efficiently to body fat and may lead to such conditions as cancer, hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes. The T-Factor Fat Gram Counter tells you everything you need to know to cut the hidden fat out of your food. It also provides a brief overview of vital diet and exercise principles, and target levels of fat consumption for men and women at varying body weights. Once you understand the role of dietary fat, you are liberated forever from the need to cut calories or even restrict your overall intake of food. Spend a few minutes a day checking the fat levels in various foods and making sensible choices, and you are well on your way to a longer, happier, and healthier life.
