"The Weight Down Diet" presents some guidelines on how to eat only when we are physically hungry and not when emotionally hungry. That is why the writer has made a strong distinction between physical hunger for food and 'head hunger'. According to her we can obtain weight loss easily when we fill our head hunger by bonding with the god. And thus, in the diet plan taught in this book, we can eat what ever we like, no need to stick to low calorie food. However, there is one restriction, we can consume only as much as our physical needs, that is, we can eat whatever we like but just in moderation.

The books "The Weight Down Diet" highlights in making some changes in the life style of the readers as mentioned below

1. To eat only when one is physically hungry ( it is different from head hunger)
2. To eat slowly while savoring both food as well as the company.
3. And Stop immediately when full (not stuffed), even if it is halfway round the meal.

Besides this the writer also emphasizes in prayers and better connection with the god. This renewed relation with the god helps in better weight loss according to the author.

Overall the book "The Weight Down Diet" is a good guide which tells how to use our belief in the Jesus Christ to stop overeating and see foods in a new light. Gwen Shamblin tells her reader to eat what ever they like but cautions just to eat less in moderation.
