A Diet is the Last Thing You Need: Weight Loss & Maintenance Answers is a work of non-fiction in the health and lifestyle subgenres. It is suitable for the general adult reading audience and was penned by author Brenda L. Wolfe, Ph.D. The book aims to help readers understand their relationship with weight and the behaviors that lead to us making unhealthy choices with our bodies. By focusing on a grounded approach to discussing the aspects of our lives that influence our weight loss or gain, instead of a context-free set of strategies, the book aims to promote a long-term healthy relationship with our bodies.

This book is essential for readers who’ve spent a long time struggling with their weight as it directly addresses the psychological and sociological reasons that our weight fluctuates. It encourages readers to reflect on their lives and find a path that works for them rather than follow a set of rigid instructions. Author Brenda L. Wolfe shows a great deal of wisdom in her approach by acknowledging that there is no 'one size fits all' solution to weight loss and instead aims at helping readers explore the root cause of the problem in their own lives. The result is the perfect opportunity for readers to reflect on their relationships with food and how they can reconsider the role it plays in their life. Overall, A Diet is the Last Thing You Need is the book on weight loss you’ve been looking for all this time. It is an honest discussion on why our weight fluctuates the way it does and how to control it without inaccessible levels of dietary analysis or the idea that a 'one size fits all' diet plan is a viable solution.
