This is a great tool for anyone who's serious about losing weight. There really isn't any magic pill for long-term weight loss, it's about calories in and calories out. This book is small enough to carry in your purse and bring with you to the grocery store and restaurants. It has sections on calories from store brands, restaurant foods from many chain restaurants, and foods you eat at home (vegetables, breads, meats, etc.). It also has sections on how many calories you need, portion sizes, and setting weight-loss goals. Overall, this book is a must for anyone who wants to lose weight or even if you just want to get a better understanding of what's really going into your body!

I am going to return this item. The print is so small I would need to carry a magnifying glass around with me just to see the information.

1. If you use an e-reader, you sure don't want this book. If you use a font any size that's readable without a microscope, you won't be able to see the food names. You will see the nutrition information but not the name of the food because that part of the page is hidden outside the margins.
2. It claims to provide nutrition info on over 9000 foods? The book is 38 pages. How much information can you get into 38 pages? This book is a waste of money. On a scale of 0 to 10, I give it a .00025

Great tool.
This product was in great condition when I received it. I use it almost everyday. There are so many different foods listed. It has been a great tool in tracking what I eat.

Not all that helpful, must find something else
This book is not what I expected and I'm disappointed. I need to find a book where most, if not all, foods are listed for calories. This one doesn't do the job.
