I FINALLY UNDERSTAND HOW MY BODY WORKS!

I am surprised at the negative comments by the 'vegetarians'. This book is for everyone and has recipes that will work for you! I have just begun ANOTHER weight loss mission and have already lost 10lbs! I don't feel hungry and now understand the foods that will make my body eat the fat instead of store it. I now look at all labels and will not buy anything that has 1 or more grams of sugar. Once I started looking at labels it was amazing to see just how much sugar I was eating without realizing. I am approaching 40 and my body was not responding to diets, exercise or anything. It is responding now. I am not a cook, but with this book, I am able to cook the recipes with ease and I like the meals! There are plenty of choices too. I hesitated before buying this book, but it was the best book purchase that I have ever made! Good luck to you too! I could hardly put this book down. Just like my new morning brew made from soy beans. Taste like coffee, sans the caffeine, and contains no tannic acids. I have no more heartburn and that is something to write about. Google it online under "s oyfee".

Another 5 star rating even with its' shortcomings ...

Having read and thoroughly enjoyed the original 'Sugar Busters' book, on the instructions from my cardio vascular doctor, I found the recepies quite interesting and bought this book for that primary reason .... Everyone that I know has one or another 'famous' diet for me to try but I have to admit that most diets follow some 'theme' and are not what I would call all-inclusive and do not really take advantage of the chemical processes inside our bodies as we digest our sugar laden diets ....The book starts with a primer of the Sugar Busters diet and listings of foods and spices that are recommended and which ones we should stay away from. The second main section of the book deals with detailed recepies. I have tried many of the recepies in the book and find the easy to prepare and definitely very tasty ... Excellent bean dishes and seafood dishes of course with some even from the unbelieveable kitchens of K-Paul (Paul Prudhome in New Orleans) The drawbacks of this book are one; it's certainly on the expensive side for a spiral bound book, and two; it has no .. i mean none, zippo, zilch .... pictures of any of the prepared dishes, certainly a drwaback to even the most humble of cookbooks that I have in my library..... Am I happy to have bought this book, yes, does it replace the original Sugar Busters book in explaining the diet, no .... certainly I would suggest that you read the full diet book first to completely understand the whole concept ......

The Perfect Diet

This diet worked for me four years ago. I lost 50 pounds. I'm returning to it because I gained weight after cancer surgery and reconstruction, during which time, I couldn't follow the diet as closely as I had. Now that I'm cancer free and ready to REALLY feel great again I'm going to cut my carbs and regain my slim, energetic body. It is easy to follow and, personally, I was never hungry or eating foods I didn't like.

Good cookbook.

I am a firm believer in high-protein diets, in spite of the fact that on the Zone, which I have been on 4 years, though I originally lost 25 pounds, over the past 2 years I had gained back 15 pounds of that loss. I decided to do some more reading about other high-protein diets to see what was wrong. I was very impressed with what Sugar Busters has to say. It is almost identical to what Dr. Atkins and The Schwarzbein Principle have to say, but I like this cookbook much better than Dr. Atkins' and Dr. Schwarzbein doesn't have a cookbook. I have had hypoglycemia for many years and have extensive diabetes in my lineage, so originally I went on the Zone to deal with blood sugar problems. The weight loss was a nice extra treat, and once I had it, I wanted to keep it. The Zone doesn't have you give up sugar, and I've been finding that even though just balancing carbs of any kind with protein and fiber helps the blood sugar, if you are sugar sensitive, over time, you begin to lose the insulin-balancing benefits and weight losses if you merely do high-protein and don't give up sugar as Sugar Busters recommends.I have been on the Sugar Busters no-sugar, no-white-flour, no-starchy vegetables diet for 3 weeks now. I am not craving sugar; I feel great, and I've lost 6 of the 15 regained pounds from the Zone. This diet seems to cause you, like the Zone (if it works) to lose about 1-2 pounds a week if you have less than 30 pounds to lose. For people with a huge amount of weight to lose, you can lose as much as 4-6 pounds a week in the beginning, according to information in the Sugar Busters and Atkins' books.

Great recipes!I started this "lifestyle change" three weeks ago, and have lost 11 pounds.I've tried just about every fad diet...high-carb,high-protein,you name it.Sugar Busters is different-it's not something you do for two weeks.It's a lifestyle change.This cookbook has made meals easier for me because it provides you with lots of great alternatives.The authors do not suggest you cut out all carbs or eat fatty foods.It truly is a healthier way to eat!
