Repetitive and non-fluid

I'm so disappointed in myself for buying this book. With all health books, you expect a level of repetition, but it really sounds like this book was created by chat GPT and the protocol does not know how to edit itself. These are my criticisms:
1. The book is circular in its concepts, and those concepts don't change. On chapter one they tell you about burning fat faster, but then slow down, because you want to keep consistent. This is the same message in chapter 2 through 9 as well.... Until you are told "congratulations!! you've reached your goals", and then it goes off again in the same track.
2. The book context does not make sense. In one paragraph it will tell you that you should be ready to burn fat fast for that special event, in the very next paragraph it tells you to list your reasons for losing weight (didn't we just assume the reasons on the first paragraph?).
3. All the information seems to be regurgitated by the internet. There are no specific plans, no specific workouts, except the book will tell you that the "Rapid Results Program" have these items... maybe in a different edition?

I'm sure I can be more critical If I was not caught off guard. Unfortunately, I was not looking to review this short book. Regardless, I refuse to go over it again to make sure I caught all the issues because, while some of the information may have been relevant, it was not modern or specific enough to be useful.

What? eat less and workout?? Why didn't I think of that?
Intermittent fasting? Yes, I heard it before, Are there any specifics of the diet? (not in this book)
HIIT? I've also heard it before. Are there any specific workouts? (none that I saw).

These are my additional observations:
1. Stephanie J. Carpenter sounds like she moonlights for the speechify AI that reads my books. She may not be an actual AI, but you will have to convince me since she is monotone, and she read out the table of contents. I have never seen that done on any audible editions. It's as if someone put this PDF through an AI dictation program.
2. When I researched the author, I found that he had published a similar book only three months earlier. Given the speed of publishing and editing, I was no longer surprised that the book didn't have any information I could not find on google by searching for fitness.
3. The book does not quote any sources. I guess all the information came straight from the author.
4. I was initially sold by the awesome reviews (24 x 5-star reviews, none that are 4-star or less). Turns out that all the people that rated this book 5 stars loved it so much they only gave stars but no narrative for this glowing piece of literature.

I rarely leave reviews, much less bad ones, but I feel that this book would not really help out anyone in any context. Maybe it will help the author make money, but not much else.
