I've always been a fan of Ellie's, because her food is sensible and family friendly. I recently read this revised edition and it really clicked for me this time! Once I started really paying attention to the number of veggies and fruits I was NOT eating everyday, I made the decision to improve my family's diet for good. In 2 weeks times, just from cutting out the junk food and eating healthy snacks, I lost 3 lbs effortlessly! That's motivation enough, but I also feel better and have more energy, because I'm fueling my body with upgraded fuel!

I refuse to do the goofy "no carb" and "no fat" diets, because they just aren't sustainable. I don't want to live that way! BUT, I have finally had my "aha" moment when I realized that I simply can't eat like a 20 yr old anymore. I have to eat LESS carbs, healthier fats, and a lot less junk. I still have my dose of chocolate everyday...but these days it's usually a couple of squares of dark chocolate, and it satisfies me.

This book is full of common sense, good recipes, and motivational tips on how to improve diet and lifestyle. I will refer to it often. Sometimes you just need a good coach to help you remember WHY you want to live a healthier lifestyle, and Ellie is just that!

I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the updated version of Ellie's book. The new recipes are delicious-- I've made the kale chips and the Tilapia with Greek-Style Herb Sauce has become a family favorite (for my kids too!). I also enjoyed the updates on topics like agave, gluten free, and coconut oil.

I love that this book includes wellness tips that really back up the recipes. So often I see a healthy recipe being made on TV or online and have every intention of making it for myself, but then I don't because I am worried it wont taste good or basically, because I get lazy. The wellness and exercise tips really reinforce the recipes Ellie provides - they give you that extra "oomph" of motivation to get healthy in EVERY category of your lifestyle. I'm halfway through the plan and not only have I lose weight, I have already learned so many ways to incorporate veggies into my meals (something I was not very good at before...) and really simple, attainable changes that I can make in terms of exercise and relaxation that actually fit within my jam-packed work week.
You really can't fail at this wellness program. It isn't a diet where you have to spend a ton of money or eat the same thing every single day, or buy a particular supplement or pill. It's easy and tasty - a really great combo if you ask me.

I have always loved Ellie's recipes. So when I picked up this book I knew I would love it from the beginning. It is so much more than just a recipe book, it is a 12 week program that really shows you how to live a healthy life. I LOVED the Pita Pizzas, so delicious! I will be getting this for my mother for mother's day. Recommend this book to all, super helpful and always great, as expected from Ellie.

Finally, a book that is centered on balance! Your approach to nutrition, fitness and wellness as a "three-legged stool" where each leg supports the other and all are necessary components to leading a balanced life is brilliant. It is refreshing to read a book that is focused around what we can have rather than what we can't. I have incorporated your "usually, sometimes, rarely" approach to eating into my daily routine. This system helps me to make mindful decisions and in doing so I am a guilt free eater. I find this book like your recipes, a breath of fresh air. Thank you for being an advocate of a healthy lifestyle and letting us know that nothing is off limits.

I gave this book to my mother for her birthday as she loves to live a healthy yet delicious lifestyle. She loved it!!! We have made several recipes from the book. My personal favorite is the Whole-Grain Rotini with Tuscan Kale. We make this dish about once a month - absolutely amazing, perfect with a glass of red wine. I look forward to more books from Ellie as all of her recipes are right up my alley: simple, tasty and most importantly, healthy.
