　　So I’ve discovered a balance. I’ve discovered a way to enjoy
life, enjoy food, be reasonable about my health, and at the same
time maintain my work schedule and an energetic family and social
life. 
　　THE TRUTH ABOUT ME: DIETS WORK, I DON’T 
　　I am not overweight, but I could be. Both my parents were well
beyond a healthy weight. My dad died of a heart attack when he was
fifty-eight. When my mom died, she had diabetes, arthritis, and
numerous other diseases exacerbated by her obesity. If I want to
improve my chances of keeping my health and living my full life
span, I have to pay attention. But I’m weak. I’m undisciplined. I’m
not the perfect man on the cover of Men’s Health. I don’t have time
to live at the gym. 
　　But after implementing the Jerusalem Diet, I’m not out of shape.
According to my doctor, I’m a picture of health. Given my love of
food, my enjoyment of sleep, and my fondness for lazy Saturdays
lounging in pajamas all day, I could easily be in trouble. Without
the ideas you’ll find in this book, I might be obese. 
　　I need a diet that is doable, not for some highly motivated guy
who cares about the microbiology of digestion, but for me–an
average guy wanting to live a good life. I need a plan I don’t have
to think about all the time. I need a plan I won’t quit just
because I drive past a Wendy’s. 
　　I was on the Atkins diet for a year–every day until noon. Why?
Because I have many business lunches and meals with friends. It’s
too hard for a guy like me to ditch 90 percent of the carbs. I like
bread. I also like pasta. I can live without them, but I can’t live
well without them. 
　　I also failed at Atkins because of bedtime snacks. I’m like a
ten-year-old– I have to snack before bedtime. Usually it’s just a
bowl of cereal, but sometimes I like yogurt or a toasted cheese
sandwich or a plate of beanie weenies with bread and butter and a
cold glass of milk. This really messes up the Atkins plan. 
　　Atkins works. I don’t. 
　　South Beach works. I don’t. 
　　The Maker’s Diet works. I don’t. 
　　When I hear the health-food crowd talk about tofu burgers and
puréed yam soup and whole wheat udon, it makes my taste buds hide.
I start thinking that an early death really might not be that bad
after all. My taste buds scream, “We want pleasure!” And my
intestines cry out, “We want to be clean but not that clean!” 
　　I know all about making and breaking resolutions. I have an
advanced education concerning commitment and failure. I’m a pastor.
I teach people that the ancient scriptures tell them to be kind to
one another, and they nod in agreement. Then, within a month, two
of those who nodded are in my office talking about suing one
another. I tell people that life will go better for them if they’ll
get up every morning and pray, and they are all for it. Some of
them will actually do it, some never will, and most will try and
stop and try and stop and try and stop. People are people. We are
the problem. 
　　It’s the same with diet and health. We are the problem. Throw a
rock and you’ll hit a diet book that would really help you. Spend
ten minutes on Google, and you’ll have a wealth of nutrition
information to help shape your eating habits. You can get the
facts, but you might not be able to apply them. Those red Jelly
Bellies taste too good. (Who makes Jelly Bellies, anyway? They
should win a Nobel Prize for making a product that good ! ) Or, if
Jelly Bellies don’t do it for you, name your weakness. Ice cream?
Soda? French fries? Caramel corn? Chocolate? 
　　Yeah, thanks to loads of diet-and-nutrition guides, we know how
to solve the problem of our eating habits. But we probably won’t.
Most of the solutions are too dramatic. Surgery might help, but it
hurts. Ow! And for me, most diets ask too much. They change our
lifestyles 100 percent too quickly, and we don’t have the time,
patience, or willpower for 100 percent change. So we lose weight
and gain weight; we exercise every day and then don’t hit the gym
for a month; we eat proteins and veggies and then buy stock in
H?agen-Dazs. 
　　Does any of this sound familiar to you? I have a solution.
