Travis Stork - 2010
Travis Stork, co-host of The Doctors, cares about the state of your abdomen. Why? Because when he's not on TV, he works in the E.R. at Vanderbilt Medical Center. And his years of training and experience have told him that the one of the very first vital signs to check—one of the most important determining factors in whether a patient will recover from illness and injury, or face a future of disease, pain, and disability—is how much belly fat they're carrying. In fact, visceral fat—the kind that clings to your waistline and infiltrates your internal organs—is not only unsightly, it also sets you up for a host of health woes, including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. So fighting belly fat is the same thing as fighting for your life!But now, Dr. Travis, America's top urgent-care doctor, has written the ultimate prescription for curing dangerous belly fat.

If you love snacking, if you love desserts, if you love burgers and steaks, if you love big, hearty breakfasts, there—a plan in here for you. With tiny tweaks to the foods you already love and enjoy, you'll begin to see the pounds disappear in just days!Plus, Dr. Travis explains the magic of N.E.A.T.: non-exercise activity thermogenesis, a fancy way of saying "burn more calories without exercising." You pick the lifestyle you're most comfortable with. You decide which foods you want to eat. You choose what fun activities you want to enjoy. With The Lean Belly Prescription, you will have a plan custom-designed by you—with the help of Dr. Travis—that's scientifically proven to strip away up to 15 pounds in just 4 weeks.With The Lean Belly Prescription, you'll find yourself eating more the foods you love, spending more time doing the things you love, and having more fun with the people you love. Dr. Travis will teach you how to do that because The Lean Belly Prescription is a whole-life plan, taking in variables other diets don't consider, and offering weight-loss opportunities you didn't know you had. The result: a prescription plan you'll love, and stay on for the rest of your life because of how it makes you feel.
