5.0 out of 5 stars It works!, January 2, 2006

By	Joni - See all my reviews

I have just finished my third week on this program and I'm really happy with the results. I've lost five pounds on the scale, but more importantly my body feels toner and my clothes fit better. The book is very easy to follow. It has separate pages for each of the 28 days of the program with exactly what you are supposed to eat and exercise. There are home workouts provided but I take this to the gym with me. It makes it really easy to just go through the workout knowing the exact routine. I really like the exercise descriptions which are clear and with good pictures to show exactly what you need to do. I'm excited to keep using this over the coming months. My goal is to lose a total of 20 pounds and get really toned for summer!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Real Deal!!!, March 3, 2006

By	Georgia (Naples, Fl) - See all my reviews

I have done just about every program out there and none have come close to the results I've gotten from this book. I bought it for New Years and in my first go around lost twelve pounds in the month. On my second go around for February I lost another nine pounds. I now can see my muscles and I finally have triceps where the fat used to be! No more jiggly arms!!! I have gotten so many compliments from people in my office and I owe it all to this book. This is now a lifestyle for me and I now know the right way to eat and exercise to keep the weight off forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely see a difference!, March 28, 2006

By	C. Cistaro (Northern NJ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have gained so much muscle and toning since starting this program! It is easy to follow and really not that difficult. The best thing about it is that its not about "more" time at the gym or working out, its about making that time more efficient/effective!
I take it to the gym with me, but it also gives at-home versions of the workouts so if you can't make it to the gym or don't belong to one you can still do the program!
Definitely give it a try and follow it closely- you will see results!
