2.0 out of 5 stars Journal part OK, Shopping Guide is a joke, September 9, 2005

By	Sheri (CA) - See all my reviews

The journal content is good, but the book is a typically-bound softcover which does not lend well to journaling (spiral-bound books which lay open flat or fold back are much better). The biggest disappointment was the Shopping Guide section which, according to the front of the book, "features shopping lists for fat-flushing foods". They are merely bulleted lists of foods used in each phase of the plan, grouped by category (vegetables, proteins, etc.) It would have been more helpful to have actual shopping lists by week, based on the plan menus.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Handy Tool, July 13, 2007

By	Scrapper (Lancaster, PA USA) - See all my reviews

This is a journal in which you write your thoughts for the day; what you ate; what exercises you did, etc. From the beginning, I wasn't interested in the shopping guide. To me, that isn't the important part of the book. I've been using this journal since January 2007. I get about 6 weeks in one book. I'm on my fourth. I find this to be a healthy tool. Every day I record what I have eaten; my exercise routine; any problems with my health; my thoughts on how I did for the day. I end my journaling on a positive note. I always find something good that I did for the day, even if I totally screwed up. There is always something positive that you can find. The journal helps me to focus on those positives. Each day starts with a positive quote from a well-known person for motivation. Then there's a weekly journal page for you to record your measurements and your thoughts on how you did for the week. Helps you to plan goals and rewards. The price for this book is really low. I've taken a look at a couple of other journals (Stong Women has one), and they are around $15. So, this is a bargain. I give it four stars because I didn't need the shopping guide, and would have liked to have used them for journal pages instead. I would recommed purchasing this book to help you achieve your weight loss goals.
