Product Description

Get in shape for beach season! This super-slimming, body-sculpting makeover gets you bikini-ready—in just two weeks.

Bikini Boot Camp creators Melissa Perlman and Erica Gragg know that the secret to losing weight and getting fit is not another diet or endless hours at the gym. Instead, it’s a highly targeted exercise plan combined with healthy, delicious, all-natural foods that jump-start your metabolism and melt away the pounds. At the elite Amansala Eco-Chic Resort and Spa in Mexico, their Bikini Boot Camp program has become the destination of choice for celebrities and women everywhere who want to change their bodies and their lives. Now, this book gives you everything you need to recreate the Bikini Boot Camp experience at home—from the signature workouts to the low-cal, Latin-flavored dishes—and achieve the same incredible results.

Capturing the spirit of the spa and Mexico’s sunny shores, each day of Bikini Boot Camp provides you with:

A total-body workout that combines walking, circuit training, core strengthening, and yoga to target trouble spots and sculpt you head to toe
Energy-enhancing meal plans with slimming, easy-to-follow recipes—a mouthwatering mix of Mexican, Yucatán, and Asian cuisines—straight out of Amansala’s kitchen and available here for the first time
Mindfulness exercises to relax and restore you, and to help you stay focused on your fitness goals
Do-it-yourself spa treats, from easy facials to herbal baths

With more than 75 mix-and-match recipes, and a lifestyle plan to keep you going after the first two weeks are up, Bikini Boot Camp is the fastest way to whip your body into shape—and have fun doing it! So don’t panic now that summer is here. No matter how long you’ve been putting it off, this book gives you everything you need to achieve a bikini body all year round.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good job!, July 12, 2007
The authors have done a good job of integrating mind/body into a holistic approach to health. Recipes are excellent, food is delicious and workouts are hard! Not for the faint of heart. This regimine will require 100% effort to succeed, particularly if you work full time and have a family. Each morning you are required to write in a journal, meditate and do 15 minutes of yoga. In addition each day requires a 30 - 60 minute walk, a 40 minute strength routine, and on alternate days an additional "core" workout for the abs. Plan on spending about 2 hours a day on just these parts. In addition, there is a lot of prep. time in the kitchen. All food is very close to it's natural state and is loaded with veggies, fresh marinades, and sald dressings. Each of these is made from scratch and requires a lot of time. Still, it is an excellent program and I don't see how they could have done it any easier. I suggest buying the fresh ginger and garlic, chopped in jars (as they suggest) and vegetables already chopped etc. to make it easier. Expect your kitchen to be full of dishes constantly if you follow their eating plan closely.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fitness, spa style, May 26, 2007
The name of the book makes it sound like just another tone up for bikini exercise regimine, but actually it is a wholistic approach including: a food plan with recipes, circuit routines, yoga moves, meditations, journaling prompts, and spa treatments for body, face, etc. The spa treatments are made of grocery items. The flavors for the food are mostly Mexican or Asian inspired, using a back-to-basics approach of all natural food. I'm really enjoying the book and seeing results after just a week into it (so far).

5.0 out of 5 stars love it, August 19, 2007
i read the book and loved the vibe, i just felt like everything in it suited the type of person i am. i think that is important when you are trying to incorporate a new habit into your life. i've never seen myself as sporty and i hate to think of myself as a dieter, this book helps me see my efforts to stay in shape and eat well in a different light, one that reflects more of who i feel i am.

so i was excited to try it, and now, i'm nearly ten days in and i LOVE it. i see the results in my body and the way my clothes fit, although not so much on the scale, yet. i think i lost one or two lbs. but the main thing is that it's finally something that i feel i can easily keep doing, because i like it and it makes me feel great!
most of the recipes are fantastic, i haven't felt at all like i'm dieting - except that the breakfasts are generally really light, and i get hungry in the morning.

anyway, i just wanted to say i highly recommend it, especially for anyone who is already into yoga, meditation, and natural food.
