Free Books for Libraries
Libraries are all different. Some are large and some are small (like ours). Some have big budgets and some have small ones.
If you would like to request a free copy of Slim by Design for your local library, just jot down your name and address on a piece of library stationary, take a photo of it, and email it to [email protected] with the subject line "Send our library Slim by Design."

Free Refrigerator Magnets for You
Refrigerator magnets seem so 1970s, but we still love them. Retro cool.
Refrigerator magnets are even better if they actually refer to your refrigerator. These two magnets will help remind you that "The best diet is the one you don't know you're on" and that "It's easier to be slim by design than slim by willpower." Even if they don't stick to your fancy, shiny refrigerator, you can still double-over a piece of tape and stick them on. Old school.
If you'd like either or both, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to the address below, and we'll get your magnets out to you. We hope they can help you set up your kitchen so you can automatically help your family eat better without having to give it much thought. (You might also want to download the Kitchen Scorecard for ideas on where to start).
All our best in having a healthier and happier family.

A 10-point Scorecard to Help Your Family
| Click to download your Slim by Design Kitchen Scorecard |
This 10-point Scorecard will give you a good indication whether your kitchen is helping you lose weight or whether it's making you gain weight.
Honestly check how many of the 10 items you currently do each day. Most people can only check 3-4 the first time they do this. But the good news is that all of these can be very easily changed -- many can be changed within a day.
Try to make a couple of the easier changes, and see how they work for you. When you're ready, add a few more.
Every couple months, fill out the scorecard again, and see if you've improved or if you're backsliding a bit. If slipped, no problem. You know exactly what to do to get back on track.
Best wishes.
