BIGGEST LOSER Trainer Bob Harper to Release New Weight Loss Book

New York Times bestselling author, celebrity trainer and star of NBC's "The Biggest Loser," Bob Harper is set to release his latest book, Jumpstart to Skinny, thirteen short-term Rules that will supercharge weight loss. Harper provides a day-by-day plan for success including his body-toning, "Jumpstart Moves" and deliciously slimming recipes.

The four-part jumpstart plan includes:

- Your Jumpstart Rules: Thirteen must-follow principles to get you ready for your own "big reveal," including Rule #1, a precise breakdown of the proper protein/carbohydrate/fat proportions for every meal, and Rule #3, which explains why you need to just say no to complex carbs after breakfast during this three-week plan. These are the Rules that Bob Harper and his celebrity clients use to get ready for their big events-and now you're in on the secrets, too.

- Your JumpstArt Day-by-Day: No decisions, no confusion! Here is the simple, three-week game plan: the food to buy and prepare ahead each week, when and how much to eat each day, and the when and how of your exercise schedule.

- Your Jumpstart Moves: Bob's unique, twenty-minute, at-home exercise routines. From sit-ups, push-ups, and squats to jumping rope, lateral jumps, and simple chair dips, choose one of the seven "packages" of body-toning moves when your day calls for Bob's "metabolic conditioning."

- Jumpstart Recipes: Cleansing or juice fasting? No way! You need to eat to lose weight, so here are twenty-one days of slimmingly delicious recipes-including "Peanut Butter and Jelly" Oatmeal, Sweet Potato Hash, Spaghetti Squash Bolognese, Buffalo Chicken Salad, and Bob's signature Shrimp Skimpy-formulated with your Jumpstart protein/carb/fat proportions (see Rule #1!) and calorie maximums in mind.
