Are you a Diet Doctor member who sometimes feels overwhelmed by all the information the site has to offer? Do you worry you may be missing out on key content?

Our new digital Welcome Handbook is designed just for you.

In a handy and attractive online flipbook, the 24-page guide highlights all of the key offerings available on Diet Doctor.

Even better, by hovering your mouse over the bolded text in this magazine-style publication, you can click straight through to the exact spot on the site.

Whether it’s recipes, meal plans, weight loss programs, videos, health information, or access to our online community, it’s all there and more.

The back page even has some helpful prompts for you to create your own personal worksheet for health improvement or weight loss.

The Welcome Handbook is free to all Diet Doctor members. It’s also available as an immediate gift to anyone who signs up for our free 30-day trial.

Hi All,

I need some help, please. I hovered the cursor over the picture of handbook above - like Dave suggested - but there's no "download icon"

Am I missing something?

Many thanks, Carolina

As a member for some time I ve been getting emails but none has had a link in it to this handbook? Can you advise how I access it please? From the sounds of things it will make a significant difference to me.
Thank you.

How do you get the handbook onto an iPad? It’s impossible to “hover” as the link doesn’t provide an icon. Thanks very much.

This looks good. Have been a member for a long time and it is easy to read. The only problem I see is that when you download it so you can save it to your computer none of the links work. Have to leave it in the original email to get them to work.

I have been a member a short time and being vegetarian it's just the same thing every week and as for manual it supposed to be for members but the only link is for starting free trial. I am going to be cancelling my membership and going to Slimming World or some other group.

It is viewable right in the preview pane window on this page. If you wish to download it, there is an arrow in the top left corner of the viewer. Please note that it is a very large file, so you may wish to download it to a computer rather than a phone.

Unfortunately, the links are only clickable in the online magazine format through the ISSUU window.

Hi Helena, as my colleague Kristin Parker noted, the links break when downloaded as a PDF. Alas, that is unfixable by us. I am the editor and originator of the handbook, and we looked for a variety of ways we could host this handbook and make it useful to the widest number of people. There were limitations with all options.
I suggest that with the downloaded PDF, that you make note of the key spots you want to visit, then go back to the online flipbook and flip through, finding that page and clicking through.
I am sorry that I cannot offer a more elegant solution at this time.

If you place your cursor at the top left-hand corner of the digital flipbook, you'll find a downward pointing arrow. Clicking the arrow allows you to download the flipbook. However, none of the hyperlinks work once you download the book as a PDF.

I would like to be able to mark this page as a "favourite" but I don't see the heart symbol. I think it would be nice to have it as a favourite because then I could jump to any other article from the online links.

Thank you for the suggestion! Currently we don't have the option to Favorite blog posts or news updates. You can save it in your browser's bookmark section in the meantime.
