Those of you who have read Sheri Rose Shepherd's Fit For Excellence, will love this follow-up cookbook. Shepherd has created a plan for health and fitness based on information found in the Bible.

Included in her cookbook are a variety of easy, tasty, healthy recipes. In addition, she's summarized the dieting advice that is detailed in Fit For Excellence. In Chapter 3, you can test yourself to see if you are a "Cherub" or a "Princess." According to Shepherd, Princesses operate at optimum level on a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet, while Cherubs fare better on complex carbohydrates and low-fat foods. Chapter 4 is devoted to food shopping for the best products. She covers shopping for spices, condiments, meats, proteins, sweeteners, nondairy products, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and vitamins.

Overall, I'd give this book Five Stars! It covers all the bases in a simple, easy-to-follow format. I would reccommend Eating For Excellence to anyone in the market for some good, healthy motivation.

Love this book. I've had it for years now and I still go back to it for yummy, unique and healthy dishes, especially the salads.

This book explains how we should eat and tells us how to not have eating disorders.

I got this book out of the library. I thought it was pretty good, except on pages 94 and 95 she says we can make wraps out of smoked turkey breast or smoked salmon. Also liquid smoke. Since this is a healthy cookbook, I was surprised. Smoked foods are not good for you. She should have said sliced turkey breast or small slices of salmon, and not mentioned liquid smoke at all. So that is why I am giving it only 4 stars.
