Awesome! I give this book ten stars. Never Be Fat Again has got to be the best book on weight control ever written. I keep going on diets and the pounds keep coming back. For so many years I have tried to lose weight only to lose and regain the same 25 pounds over and over while gaining more weight every year. For the first time I now understand why diets don't work, and how to lose weight permanently. This book teaches you why you can't lose weight permanently by trying to lose weight. Excess weight is only a symptom of this disease, and you can't cure the disease by treating the symptom. The author, an MIT-trained scientist, identifies the causes of this disease, which, much to my surprise, include common environmental toxins. Armed with this knowledge, I am reversing the causes that created my weight in the first place. In just six weeks, I have lost 15 pounds without feeling deprived and eating as much as I like. In fact, I have more energy, sleep better and feel better than I have in years. All I did is cut out the processed foods and artificial sweeteners and get on the recommended supplement program. Never Be Fat Again is different from anything else out there on the market. It is clearly written and easy to read, but best of all, a scientifically-sound solution to excess weight. I highly recommend it. The chapter on sugar alone is worth the price of the book.

You do not have to become a vegetarian with this book just an informed meat eater. Fruits and vegetables should be eaten in abundance and meat sparingly. This advice is even in the bible...duh..He is just suggesting that you eat less of it and change the type you eat. If you have EVER eaten organic meat, you will NEVER go back...The taste of the milk and meat is 1000% better it is almost unrecognizable from the supermarket CRAP! Just eat smart and avoid the big 4. Sugar(which is in everything even BABY Formula), White Flour, dairy and meat (non organic and in excess), and processed oils...Even just eliminating one or two could change your health, weight, and increase your life span...You do not have to do all of it

I've been on countless diets over the years. Pretty much, you name it and I've tried it. I've been on Atkins, The Zone, vegetarian, low-fat, Eat Right for Your Blood Type, SlimFast, and South Beach. In addition, I've tried counting calories and restricting my food intake so much that I had almost no energy. However, I was never able to keep the weight off long term. If only I had known then what I know now! I've been on the diet for a month now and have lost 10 pounds and I'm steadily continuing to lose. I've learned that I don't have to be deprived to lose weight. In fact, I'm eating more than I was on any of my previous diets and enjoying my food more than ever! This book has taught me that a large part of losing weight and keeping it off is about making better choices and finally, I am learning how to choose foods for my body that not only support weight loss, but also make me healthier all around.

One huge revelation for me was the chapter on mindset and psychological health. Previously, I was constantly degrading myself because of my weight and I was constantly depressed and negative because I hated my body. Never Be Fat Again has taught me that my mindset is very important in my weight loss journey. I have increasingly become a more positive person and I can finally say, for the first time since high school, that I'm starting to love my body!

I'm greatly indebted to the authors of this book. All I can say is, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Without Never Be Fat Again, I never could have succeeded.

When I started reading this book, I could not put it down. It made me think before I buy any groceries. I read everything on the label, and to me if it has words I can't even pronouce, I don't buy it. The more natural ingredients and the less chemicals. This book is a must to read.

How excited I was to find this knowledgeable and well written book on my last trip to the USA. If you have a health issue, no matter what it may be and of course including weight challenges, then this is the book for you. It is easy to read and understand. I defy anyone who completes this 6 week cellular solution to not feel so much better, younger and lighter. Infact, I am so impressed that I recommend this book to my attendees when lecturing in the UK. I also had the added benefit and pleasure of meeting with Michelle King - truly an inspiration to us all and a more genuine and passionate lady you could not wish to meet.

Nothing really revolutionary here. I have read of these suggestions elsewhere. However, the book pulls a lot of suggestions together and this is a contribution. The Foreword states the thesis (Page ix): ". . .overweight is a disease that can only be cured by restoring overall good health."

What does this mean? The author argues that we need to address two key causes--deficiency of needed nutrients and addressing ingestion of toxic materials. As Francis says (Page 1): "The weight is merely a symptom, and this symptom will come back unless you elimi8nate the underlying causes." The author argues that the standard American diet is the leading cause of disease--and obesity. What to do? Face off against "The Big Four": sugar, white flour, processed oils, and dairy/excess animal protein. Other bęte noires: caffeine and alcohol.

What to do? Unprocessed fruits and vegetables; reduce animal protein; more fiber; organic, less treated foods (e.g., asparagus rather than bell peppers, since the former is less treated than the latter); more whole grain.

Tools? A diary or journal to outline what you actually eat as well as something like a written plan of action. One can then compare what s/he wants to do and what s/he actually is doing. In addition, chapter 13 provides a set of illustrative menus and recipes. Among recipes: veggie sandwiches, herbed hummus, meatless taco salad, vegetable wraps, spicy raw nuts, and veggie pesto pasta.

This book provides an approach to weight reduction that takes a somewhat different theoretical tack--albeit with many familiar operational dietary suggestions.

I was very glad to receive this book. It is very simple and at the same time very powerful. I hope many others will benefit from it as I am going to.

Very good information... it is a easy read and information to back up what is being said

Raymond Francis is really on the something with this book. If we as individuals and as a nation would take the advice provided here, then you would see a whole different you, a healthier nation.

Great book; lots of valuable information! Easy exchange w/seller; timely receipt; book in very good condition as described.
