The Eat, Drink, and Be Gorgeous Project [Kindle Edition]

Esther Blum (Author)

Book Description

Women will lose twice the weight when they track what they eat with this helpful food diary. Expert nutritionist Esther Blum provides a healthy dose of motivation plus all the necessary tools to make it happen: delicious meal plans (the gluten-free one is surprisingly savory), easy recipes (McSteamy Veggies, Low-Carb Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars), strategies for curbing mindless eating, exercises that maximize fat-burning potential, and three months' worth of food log pages. This easy, effective path to personal accountability helps women fix diet imbalances that prevent them from losing weight. All wrapped up in a pretty purse-worthy package, it's everything a woman needs to perfect her most important project ever: herself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great guide for better health and fat loss April 3, 2012

By Eric Falstrault, PICP 5, naturopath, strength coach

Format:Paperback

Having a project is fun, especially when it is your own self. Who wouldn't want to take charge of his or her health and have someone walk you through it? Well, Ester Blum and her `'eat, drink and be Gorgeous project'' (click on the link to order from amazon) book can help you turn your won't power into will power. Esther is an integrative dietitian, certified nutrition specialist and also writes a regular blog for Charles Poliquin, a world leading strength coach.
Her book is amazing for its simplicity and great explanations on some hard and sometimes unbreakable myths. It is filled with great recipes, and mostly, gluten-free recipes that will only give you the desired results faster than you'll be able to finish her book. Especially made for woman, this book helps you understand some hard to distinguish `'female'' issues and symptoms that prevent you from losing fat. This easy to follow guide has it all and I highly recommend it to anyone serious about losing weight while staying healthy and improving their health at the same time.
Great work Esther!

5.0 out of 5 stars Get Gorgeous! April 21, 2012

By brian d.

Format:Paperback

Esther Blum has been a Godsend to nutrition--at least my understanding of it-- when at 30, with her guidance, I reeducated myself on how to eat more healthy and make better choices without depraving myself as I went about my day to day life.

As a reader, I particularly appreciate how Esther uses her books to presents her helpful tips in an entertaining way--there really is no better way to learn!!

This 3rd book in her "Gorgeous" line of nutritional/self-help books feels like Esther is with me all the way as my personal nutritional coach, cheering me on to stay committed to my goal at hand--maintaining my healthy lifestyle and feeling more gorgeous in my swim trunks come summer. (And that is something both men and women can identify with!!!!)

Thank you again Esther... and to the review readers out there you are in good hands, now...Get Gorgeous!!
