5.0 out of 5 stars Christie Brinklet's Outdoor Beauty and Fitness Book, February 8, 2000

By	Gwen (Lynchburg, VA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Christie Brinkley's Outdoor Beauty and Fitness Book (Paperback)

I had purchased this book about 15 years ago, but let a friend in college borrow it. She moved away - taking the book with her. Over the years, I have greatly missed it! It's really informative, easy to read, and provides some excellent tips. It's a very motivating book where fitness is concerned. Christie has a great writing style - practical and "down-to-earth." I highly recommend it! I'm glad to once again have the book after 15 years -- I have no idea where the friend who borrowed my original copy is. Marcia - you know who you are -- ha! ha!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beach goers companion, May 7, 2008

By	Kathryn Cormier - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Christie Brinkley's Outdoor Beauty and Fitness Book (Paperback)

Besides excellent diet and exercise tips, Christie gives tips to avoid beach hazards; Avoiding bug and insect bites, wearing a mosquito net to avoid getting bitten by scorpions, what to do if you are bitten, what to do if you are stung (by jelly fish)-all potential occurrences at any beach- dangers of ocean water and tides patterns to watch out for and how to swim your way out of whirlpools, if you get swept away by the oceans current, and how to take safety precautions when swimming on unfamiliar beaches. She modeled on beaches all over the world making anyone realize how modern conveniences are taken for granted. This is a perfect all around outdoor book. The tips can be helpful camping tips as well. I kept hoping she would come out with a second book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource for anyone wanting to live a healthy life, January 10, 2003

By	Reviewer "Reader" (Key West, FL) - See all my reviews

I bought this book in 1984, and it literally changed my life. It has practical advice that works. (beautiful photograhs and drawings) It has an upbeat straightforward style that takes the mystery out of making the most of your physical self. I highly recomend this book for anyone wanting weightloss, lifestyle change, or a healthy maintinance program. Bravo, Christie!
