Hi, iam 180cm and my weight is 74 kg, ideal weight. Going by the title of the book, don`t lose your mind, lose your weight, I should not have read the book. I guess title of the book is chosen for commercial reason to sell to targetted population, i.e., people looking to lose weight.
Actually the book is telling about correct way of eating, better way of living and to that extent it is applicable to entire mankind. The book is based on common sense and logical reasoning. It relies heavily on day to day living illustrations to make the point. The running central theme of book is to make readers aware to optimally run the human machine.
