Less than a week on this diet and 8lbs lighter
I cannot commend this book enough. In September of last year I tried the previous revision of this book. It was my first attempt at dieting as I, like most people, loved my food but as I was now in my thirties I could no longer eat anything I wanted without taking exercise and feel no effect. My waistline had grown steadily from a loose 32" to a really tight 34" (effectively 3 sizes) within around a 3 year period and I didn't want to go up another waist size and start making excuses about my double chin.

I got some good scales and borrowed the book from a friend who said it would work as it did for him. I weighed 14 stone at the end of September. The next day I stocked up on the food I needed and commenced my diet. I noticed daily waitloss instantly and by the middle of November I weighed 12st 5lbs. I had a couple of business trips away in between these times and didn't stay on the diet every day. But that's the beauty of this because you don't have to punish yourself as it's effectively a 24hr diet.

You can have a carb fix and be bad some days if you want and the next couple of days be good and you'll still notice the difference. And by being good I don't mean eat cardboard and lettuce leaves, you can have cream of chicken soup for lunch, big juicy steaks for supper and the best bit, bacon and fried eggs for breakfast. All this and I could finally get into those jeans and that shirt that I couldn't look good in before and I felt fantastic. The added bonus here is that I could go out at night with friends regularly and still have alcohol (wine or spirits) and have a great time with them whilst still losing weight.

I hadn't been watching what I've been eating since last November and steadily gained weight from eating all those carbs again and weighed in at 13st 8lbs on Monday last week so I decided to give the new book a go together with the cookbook. I have really gotten into it again and cut out most of the carbs completely. I weighed myself this morning and I'm under the 13st mark! 12st 13.4lbs. I've lost more than 8 lbs in less than 7 days. I knew this would work again but I was truly astonished at the speed of the weight loss this time around and I can go another couple of weeks on this and hopefully reach my target of 12st.

Get this book and it will work for you. You have to abstain sometimes and I have virtually no willpower, but believe me, once you see the results you won't mind and it'll all be worth it. It's the best thing for under a tenner I have ever bought.

Dieting Made Easy!
I orginally had this book in 2005 and started on the diet.
Everything is set out and explained in a detail and there are lots of recipes too!
Now the saying you never see a fat Postman is mainly true but due to having an illness I wasn`t able to work and piled on the pounds,I was the typical bloke,eating loads of sandwiches,chocolate biccys and fast food,nearly every night it was either chips or mashed potatoes with whatever and hardly any veg,so when my wife bought this book and said it would be better if we both did it I was horrified!
We started the diet,I thought I`d be starving by day one but I NEVER feel hungry now,before I was always snacking or `treating` myself with a sweetie usually a doughnut or biscuit now I don`t even bother with chocolate,my two teenage daughters have loads of it in the fridge and I`m not even tempted!
I appreciate my food alot more now and for people who say it`s not healthy eating,I`ve never eaten as much vegetables as what I do now,also I enjoy fish in the morning now as well for breakfast..much more healthier than Tony the Tiger or new Honey nut cardboard pap.
Have I lost weight?....I was 15st 7lbs back then I`m now 12st which I consider my ideal weight,did it take loads of willpower?...NO,I NEVER felt hungry infact I didn`t even think I was on a diet,if I can lose weight anybody can.

high protein diet book
I was looking forward to being amazed following a write up about the author's beliefs in a magazine. I found it however strangely similar to the Atkins diet and not revolutionary as anticipated, which was a disappointment as I had bought an extra copy of the book for my daughter. It is all text, no interesting photos of any of the recipes so seems a very bland book. yet I suppose the ideas are there for what to eat, so that sections is good as is the medical explanations of high protein diets.
