‘GLP-1s, miracle or menace? Everyone should read this great book’ Tim Spector

Constant, unwanted thoughts about food – Food Noise – can be impossible to silence in our world of compelling marketing messages and ongoing temptation.
GLP-1s (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro et al) are said to be the biggest medical breakthrough in decades. They banish food cravings, subsequent weight loss is rapid, and the drugs are said to bring many additional health benefits, but one question remains; how do you lose the weight well, and sustain it for life?

Critically, he answers the questions few are addressing: Are you losing fat or muscle? How can you meet your body’s nutritional needs? And how can you embrace a lifestyle that nourishes both body and mind
This book will help you:
Understand the Science: Dr Jack Mosley explains how these drugs work and asks ‘are they a game-changer or a health hazard?’.
Transform Your Diet: Learn how to eat well when your appetite is reduced, with 50 delicious recipes and a 7-day meal plan.
Sustain the Change: Discover how to maintain your weight loss after stopping the medication and build long lasting, healthy habits.Whether you’re considering these medications, already taking them, or simply curious about weight loss methods, this is the ultimate resource to reclaim your health and reshape your life.

Meditations for Mortals: The instant Sunday Times bestseller that will change your life
Stop trying to sort your life out. Start living.
‘Full of wisdom and comfort’ CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN
‘A practical path toward personal transformation… A must-read’ CAL NEWPORT
Our lives can feel defined by the struggle with overwhelm, endless decisions and striving to be productive. Wouldn’t it be good to stop doing all that? What if we could find freedom – and get more of the important things done – by embracing our limitations, and by letting things happen instead of forcing them?
Meditations for Mortals begins with the reality in which we actually find ourselves, not with fantasies of an ideal existence. Reflecting on ideas from philosophy, religion, psychology and self-help, it offers us a powerful and practical new way to do what counts: a guiding outlook Oliver Burkeman calls ‘imperfectionism’.
This book is a profound and liberating crash course in living more fully. It overturns much familiar advice and opens a gateway to a saner, freer and more enchantment-filled life.
‘If there are two people who have changed my life…then one of them is Oliver Burkeman’ PANDORA SYKES

Truck It!: The Drive Around the World That Saved My Life
Join Bobby Bolton and his trusted dog, Red, as they drive from Wigan across the world – and fall in love with life again . . .
When Bobby’s eleven-year relationship broke down, he thought he’d hit rock bottom. Then a bad economic turn and a run of unlucky business deals drove his hard-earned construction company into the ground, and Bobby discovered what it was to lose all purpose in life.
Drowning his sorrows in a pub one day, Bobby boldly declared that he would turn his life around by driving from his hometown of Wigan all the way to Australia. The next day, he sold what was left of his business and spent every penny converting a truck that he would drive and live in with his dog, Red.
A couple of weeks in, fate struck when Bobby met a beautiful woman named Marie while hiking in the South of France and fell head over heels in love. After just two dates she joined him in his truck to see what might happen next. And this was only the start of the adventure . . .
Paying corrupt Russian policemen bribes, digging out mountain passes in Albania with an old spade, getting punched at the Kazakhstan border, having a mountain track collapse in Italy, being interrogated by the Taliban at a dangerous border crossing, or sliding down a snow-covered mountain, ice axe in hand, to rescue his new girlfriend as she fell 200 metres, narrowly avoiding a cliff face . . . it’s one way to fall in love with life again.
Action-packed and completely inspirational Bobby Bolton’s Truck It! is an epic adventure with heart and a good dose of northern humour.
