Synopsis
Ok, so you'd like to lose weight or you'd like to keep slim but you know your diet just isn't that healthy. You'd like to stop the pounds creeping back on, or maybe you could feel better, sleep better, be more energized? Dr. Gillian can show you how. Rather than making you count calories, carbs or eat by percentages discover an infinitely more effective system of levels and goals that will switch on a healthy eating passion in you for life. Everyone starts on level 1 - because that's where you find your reasons and motivation for being here in the first place. And it's where we flip the switch from just thinking about it to doing it! Level 2 is Cleanse and Renew. This is a re-education for your body where you'll gradually cut out toxins and replenish through super foods. Level 3 is your key to Weight Loss. Follow the plan day-by-day and once you've reached your goal and you're feeling fabulous, then level 4 will help you feel this way for life, including tips on treats which won't send you hurtling back to level 1 and a fantastic mini plan in case you ever need a quick kick back into healthy living!

Customer Reviews

1 week later, £60 lighter!
I watched the TV series and was very impressed by the results that Gillian was getting so I thought I would get the books and give them a try.
Having tried this diet I can honestly say I believe the people who lost weight did so because the food was so bland they gave up eating, (certainly lettuce soup was enough to put me off eating for life), and the diet is just not practical for anyone on a budget, I put all the ingredients into Tesco online for one week and the bill totaled over £60.00 and as every day is different I ended up storing randon things like half an avacado.
The basic principles are sound, unprocessed food is far better for the body and everyone is better off eating fresh food than pre-packaged adative full rubbish, sadly the way in which the fresh food is presented had me reaching for a nice tasty burger and they aren't something I even eat!
Try Beyond Chocolate by Sophie and Audrey Boss if you are serious about loosing weight, they have a very different approach which has changed my life and whole relationship with food.

It worked for me!
What can I say? I was 13 stone and overweight and now I am 10 and a half stone (well within the healthy weight range for my height)and I can credit McKeith with it all - well OK, the willpower was mine! I am surprised by the really strong feelings McKeith seems to provoke - and a little suspicious - come on guys this is a diet book! She's just recommending that we eat healthily and not unhealthily! Where's the big deal! I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist but it does strike me that McKeith's popularity is a significant threat to some very powerful interests (processed food industry for one). Why did it work for me? Well, to my mind diets fall into 2 categories - restrict what you eat or restrict the quantity you eat. McKeith belongs very much to the former camp. - she basically allows you to eat a large quantity of food - sometimes I literally could not finish the meals- how great is that when you are on a diet! OK there are a couple of meals which are pretty much inedible but most of it is fine and there are many delicious recipes. If you like fruit and veg you won't have problems with her diet. I was surprised how painless it really was - because I was really never hungry! Her theory may be dubious, but I feel and look better than I have done for years. Like acupuncture, maybe the science is bunkum but the results speak for themselves. Difficult finding the ingredients? I don't think so, visit a reasonably large supermarket and a reasonably well-stocked health food shop and you've got it covered. All power to McKeith - I think she may be the kick in the butt we all need.

Nonsense
I'm reminded of the anecdote of two friends in a jungle: when they spot a tiger, one puts on his trainers. His companion laughs "you'll never outrun a tiger, even in those", to which the first replies "no, but I'll outrun you". There's an evident dichotomy in the reviews of all McKeith's books, with her decerebrate fans tending to find she has "changed my life completly" and "I would deffinatly reccomend this book" (lucky for them it's not a case of "you are what you spell"). Ultimately, McKeith's quackery proves that she doesn't have to be smart, just smarter than you.
