Product Description
WE DIET. WE LOSE. And The FAT Comes Back! ...And The FAT Came Back is a book that needs to be in every household. It is a tale of a war with fat and describes the agony of following every diet in America, only to eventually have the fat come back, plus more. Too bad that the money I spent on all these diet ventures didnt return in twofold like my fat. Proclaiming trash day for all the old diets and guilt-producing diet rules, and focusing only on getting healthy, the author discovered an amazing truth: When you feed your body what it needs it doesnt crave what it doesnt need. Amazing. The no will-power queen of America didnt need self-control or discipline. In her own words, Its been easier and more fun than I ever dreamed possible. ...And The FAT Came Back is based on true principles that, when followed, will lead to a permanently lean and healthy body. The entire purpose of this book is to empower the reader with correct knowledge and convince them that dieting does not work.

Actually this is a very straightforward, easy to follow book that I really enjoyed. She explains why, in her experience, fad "diets" don't work, and how to easily determine what you should feed your body (healthy/whole grains, fresh fruit and veggies) and just watch your fat intake. She explains why you need 2,000 GOOD calories a day to be healthy and lose weight, and why restricting your calories lower than that is actually detrimental in the long-run. She mentions whole foods; and limiting fast food, processed foods, white carbs. Very easy to read, and if you start at the beginning and read all the way to the end it's quite simple to implement. Worth a read!

I am thrilled to find the best healthy eating book to fit my lifestyle! I finally found the program I can follow and believe in. I am never hungry and finally have the energy to enjoy walking. I am learning basic principles to teach my children healthy food choices. Best of all, I get compliments from my friends that are sooo encouraging! This is the only healthy eating book you will ever need.

This book is an enjoyable read. Anyone who is a victim of the diet wars will see themself here. The proof of a diet book however is in the weight lost. I lost 12 pounds in three months but even better than that my cholesterol went from 296 to 247 a drop of 49 points and I never went hungry! This book is not about dieting it is about eating the good stuff and losing weight the way you gained it, slowly so you won't put it back on again. I highly recommend this book.

An easy to follow 10 week plan. Fun to read, sensible & practical. Before reading this book I'd about given up. I thought I'd tried everything. Through this book I learned how to achieve the will power to lose it and keep it off. Don't loan this book to a friend or you won't get it back!

TERRIBLE EDITING!

I guess I shouldn't give this book only one star. It could be a great book. However, I couldn't read the book as I can't overlook the terrible editing!!! Page v: "for all the "midnights" he was there by my side" (may be picky, but why is midnights in " " ???) Page vii: "Dieter's lack patience." Overuse of the ". . . " and if you are going to overuse it, type it right! Perhaps it is a good book. I'm sorry, but if you're going to charge $19 for a book, the least you can do is make sure you can use an apostrophe right!!!
