5.0 out of 5 stars Not sure we could do the Hcg diet until we found this book!, May 11, 2010

This review is from: The HCG Diet Gourmet Cookbook: Over 200 "Low Calorie" Recipes for the "HCG Phase" (Paperback)

When we looked at the limited food list associated with the Hcg diet, I couldn't imagine how I could keep meals interesting.

And then I found Tammy's Hcg cookbook, which at the time, was only avaialble in an e-book format, so after some pondering, I plunked down my credit card and bought it, printed it out, and put the pages in plastic sleeves in a 3-ring binder.

We have been so very pleased with every single recipe we have tried from Tammy's book. Some of them we will continue to eat past the very low calorie diet (VLCD) portion of the diet, because they are so scrumptious!

My husband even commented on how it didn't seem like we were eating "diet food." Well let me tell you - if I hadn't had Tammy's book, it sure would have seemed like we were eating diet food, that is for sure, because my creativity does not go nearly as far out as Tammy's does. Thanks Tammy, for providing us with wonderful, fulfilling meals during our first round of the VLCD!

5.0 out of 5 stars A literal lifesaver, May 12, 2010

This review is from: The HCG Diet Gourmet Cookbook: Over 200 "Low Calorie" Recipes for the "HCG Phase" (Paperback)

For those who are overweight, obese, or morbidly obese, the HCG diet, which you can easily do yourself at low cost, with tremendous online support from yahoo groups such as HCG Dieters and HCG Maintenance is life changing. The diet is strict, but Tammy's cookbook makes it actually enjoyable by providing yummy varied meals that are totally compliant with the Very Low Calorie Diet phase of Dr Simeon's Pounds and Inches Protocol.

The protocol totally works if followed. Unfortunately there are a lot of "HCG Cookbooks" out there that lead folks to believe they are compliant with the protocol but are not. THIS COOKBOOK IS COMPLIANT and works with the protocol. As others have said, thank goodness for Tammy's book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wait!! Do not do the HcG Protocol without this cookbook!, May 11, 2010

This review is from: The HCG Diet Gourmet Cookbook: Over 200 "Low Calorie" Recipes for the "HCG Phase" (Paperback)

Thank God and Tammy for this fantastic cookbook! It got me through 70 days on the second "phase" of HcG protocol and I really enjoyed every tasty meal! Lots of ideas on how to make the select few ingredients that are permitted taste so good. Everything was very easy to prepare and the directions are clear and precise.

This is the book you want to have on your kitchen counter before you even THINK about doing the weight loss program. It will ensure you succeed.
The helpful tips on the actual protocol and the way to make phase 2 recipes able to be used on the next phase was a nice bonus.

Thank you again Tammy! I hope you have another book dedicated to the next phase of the program coming soon because I will be first in line!
