(Samuel George) 1868 1947 12011009 The Fun of Getting Thin: How to Be Happy and Reduce the Waist Line E-text prepared by Al Haines "The Fun of Getting Thin: How to Be Happy and Reduce the Waist Line" by Samuel G. Blythe is a self-help book written in the early 20th century, specifically in 1912. This publication falls under the category of a motivational and lifestyle guide, tackling the topics of weight management and personal wellbeing. The book explores the struggles an individual faces with obesity and offers Blythe's personal account of his journey towards achieving a healthier weight, emphasizing the importance of willpower and self-control. In the narrative, Blythe recounts his experience of grappling with weight gain and the discomfort it brought. He candidly describes various methods he attempted over the years, including diets and exercises that often proved ineffective. After reaching a critical point of realization at 247 pounds, Blythe decided to fundamentally change his approach. He reduced his food intake significantly and eliminated alcohol from his diet while still enjoying a variety of foods in smaller portions. Over several months, he successfully lost over fifty pounds and details how this transformation not only improved his physical health but also revitalized his energy and mental clarity. With a blend of humor and frankness, Blythe concludes that the struggle with weight requires commitment and effort, but the rewards are profoundly life-changing.
