Lose It gathers and presents pertinent data from the National Weight Control Registry, critically interprets it, and shows readers what other people in their same position have done and continue to do to lose weight and keep it lost.
Lose It is intended for people who want to lose weight and want to know exactly what has worked for others in their position, without relying on anecdotal evidence from their neighbor's experience. The secondary market is fitness industry professionals (personal trainers, group fitness instructors, weight loss coaches, nutritionists, etc.) who work with the primary market. The tertiary markets are instructors and students of weight management classes and national weight loss programs (Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, etc.) that may use the book to accompany their programs.
The 30,000- to 40,000-word book merges scientific data and research findings with inspirational storytelling. Each chapter opens and closes with an inspirational story from a member of the National Weight Control Registry, creating a frame around the data that he/she helped generate.

About the Author: The passion that Dr. Jason R. Karp found as a kid for the science of athletic performance (one of his earliest questions was how baseball pitchers throw curveballs) placed him on a yellow brick road that he still follows all these years later as a coach, exercise physiologist, author, speaker, and creator of the REVO₂LUTION RUNNING™ certification program for coaches and fitness professionals around the world.A prolific writer, Jason is the author of multiple books, including The Inner Runner, Run Your Fat Off, 14-Minute Metabolic Workouts, Running a Marathon For Dummies, Running for Women, 101 Winning Racing Strategies for Runners, 101 Developmental Concepts & Workouts for Cross Country Runners, and How to Survive Your PhD. He also served as senior editor for Active Network and has been an instructor for USA Track & Field's level 3 coaching certification and for coaching camps at the U.S. Olympic Training Center.Dr. Karp is a USA Track & Field nationally certified coach, has been sponsored by PowerBar and Brooks, and was a member of the silver-medal winning United States masters team at the 2013 World Maccabiah Games in Israel.For his work and contributions to his industry, Jason was awarded the 2011 IDEA Personal Trainer of the Year (the fitness industry's highest award) and was honored with the President's Council on Fitness, Sports, & Nutrition Community Leadership Award in 2014.Dr. Karp received his PhD in exercise physiology with a physiology minor from Indiana University in 2007, his master's degree in kinesiology from the University of Calgary in 1997, and his bachelor's degree in exercise and sport science with an English minor from Penn State University in 1995.
