The Mediterranean Diet - Marissa Cloutier & Eve Adamson

 If I ever need to go on a diet, this is the one I'm picking.  Honestly, it mostly is what I eat now.  It is all the same boring wisdom we've known all along and keep hoping to find a magical answer against.  There is no magical answer.  The way to maintain a healthy weight will never change: exercise regularly, eat less sugar, eat less meat, eat healthy fats, eat whole grains and vegetables, avoid processed "foods" (cause let's be real, so much of what you can buy at the grocery store isn't actually food, it's food-like products). I'm not sure you'd need to read the book to learn any of those things, but the book has lots of citations of studies that back up the ideas.  So if you need some motivation, this books is good for that.  It also has lots of recipes and a few meal plans to get you started that seem very nice.
