"I've read many "diet/life changing" books in my life but this one is the very best! I am following the life eating plan and have already lost almost 10 lbs in a two week period. I think Wendy Chant has hit the nail on the head with this plan. At least, this one works for me. I carry the book with me so I can keep up with the current week meal plans and also to read the inspirational pieces that I have highlighted that keep me motivated. The most motivating thing so far? The change in my clothes. They fit looser and I am feeling so much better than I have in years! I stongly recommend this book to anyone that wants to lose a few pounds, feel better, and be more healthy."
"Oh, my... I wish I could only give this one a half shar.
I won't even get into to faulty science included in this book. That's better left for a weight-loss or medical forum. I'm sure that some people are able to lose weight/get healthy using this book, but they must not have anything else going on in their lives. I also realize that this is a FAT LOSS diet, not necessarily weight-loss. This may be a great diet for body-builders or people who need to do some body recomposition.
The book has numerous typos, resulting in conflicting statements. It is soooo confusing that I spent the better part of 2 days working up my own charts and lists, just so I could make some sense of the plan. After I did all that, I realized that I was obsessing over it. When I sought help from some practitioners on a weight-loss forum, I realized that they were all obsessing about it, too. The diet claims to be flexible - but the way that you have to rearrange your menu to accomodate a "cheat day" is just too much work. And that much work will lead to failure. Unfortunately, a lot of people will think that they failed - when it is the diet that has failed them.
But the main thing I want to say is that this book bases the diet on "research" that has been refuted."
"I have been on this diet for 4 weeks and have lost 12 pounds so far. The diet is strict and I plan on going back to weight watchers once I get to my goal weight. This is about carbs, limiting them and eating them on kind of a rotation schedule. I was stuck at a plateau on WW and this helped me get through that. I just don't see myself doing this for life. WW is a better plan for the long term for me.
Her recipes in the book do not interest me at all."
