I purchased this book initially because of the great resource of exercises contained in the book. But, upon closer examination, I found that not only is there the aerobic and "resistance" training, but Roberts also gives concrete guidelines for diet changes . I think this is a really great book, and the breakfast energy smoothie that he recommends as part of his "detox" plan was Yummy! I wasn't hungry all day!! I am very excited about this book, and about the new body that I'm soon going to have.

I don't agree with one of the other reviews, for I believe this book is definately a star among other books. It helps you get started and maintain it all! As a model it was so helpful to me.
It's a good bargain, so try it out. It's Worth it!

This book offers a simple, holistic view of weight loss, neatly summarizing one's physical, nutritional, and emotional needs. But be forewarned that the majority of the weight and resistence training exercises require AT LEAST a set of dumbbells and a workout bench. Many require gym machines. And Roberts does not offer any alternative exercises for people who don't belong to a gym, or who lack the funds, space, or inclination to fill their homes with gym equipment. This may not be a problem for "stars", or single people without kids. But for anyone with a full-time job and young children, this is a significant shortcoming. Furthermore, Roberts offers very little detail about how to achieve the nutritional goals he presents to the reader. You will not find detailed recipes here, only recommendations (drink a fruit smoothie for breakfast, eat more greens and fish, etc). On the up side, this book is a fast read, and very nice looking in a coffee table book sort of way, and might serve as a good motivator for anyone embarking on a new year's resolution.

This book helped me glide right into eating healthy. Unlike most nutrition plans who all of a sudden try to change someone's eating habits, this plan eases you into eating healthy so that you can adapt. It is a guide to eating healthy, YOU HAVE TO DO THE WORK. If you are looking for a quick fix, then keep wasting your money on the 3 am infommercials. I have referenced this book several times, after childbirth. I have never looked better. My only complaint is that I would have liked to see more meal suggestions.

READ THIS BOOK AND WAS FRANKLY DISSAPOINTED. NOTHING NEW IN IT.THE ABOVE TWO REVIEWS WOULD SEEM TO HAVE BEEN WRITTEN BY MATTS MUMMY AND POSSIBLY HIS PUBLISHING COMPANY AS WELL.THE CELEBRITY ANGLE WILL DOUBTLESS SERVE HIM WELL WITH SALES. ALL I CAN SAY IS THEY MUST BE EASILY PLEASED
