I used this diet many years ago, I couldnt believe the results. The food was great and kept you intrested. You could also modify within the daily menu's and still get the results they had given you. I truly understood why the diet worked and what was happening to my body. After having my third child I will use this diet again to take off the wieght I gained. This book is so good that it should be the only diet book in store's. I am now purchings my third copy, my first was given to a good friend who has lost wieght and kept it off, and my 2nd copy looks as if it was in world war three and the pages are getting hard to read, my third copy I hope to seal in plastic, because it is my bible and keeps me feeling GREAT!!!! I have tryed all diets from starvation to the craziest new thing on the supermarket shelves, and nothing in mean NOTHING is as good as this book!!! Brigitte

This is an older book...and it shows. Basically it advocates a very low-carbohydrate, very low-fat, and very low-calorie diet. The worst thing is that the authors recommend this approach for the duration of weight loss. The meal plans allow for only one or two servings of vegetables a day and an amount of protein that will lead to muscle wasting. One can only shudder to think what kind of a sluggish metabolism will be developed by consuming just 650 calories a day.

This is one of those books which should be quietly retired to an "out of print" status.
