An Essential Ingredient for the Mayo Clinic Diet Book

I purchased the Mayo Clinic Diet Journal with a large dose of skepticism, thinking it was mostly a marketing scam that could easily be replaced by a spiral notebook & pencil. However, I'd promised my family & my physician that I'd give 100% of my effort to lowering my cholesterol & getting out of the "pre-diabetic" category. So along with the Mayo Clinic Diet Book, I also ordered the New Mayo Clinic Cookbook and the Mayo Clinic Diet Journal... and I'm very glad I did. Here's why: If you think of the Mayo Clinic Diet Book as the primary text for a course, then the Mayo Clinic Diet Journal is its daily "workbook" of homework assignments. The journal contains thoughtfully coordinated activities, questions, tasks and tips that reinforce the material covered in the Diet Book. Certainly, reinforcement is a basic part of the learning process; but using the Diet Journal does something more. And it's that "something more" that makes The Mayo Clinic Diet such a success. By working in the journal AS you're reading the book, what you're DOING integrates with what you're READING. It's this basic but incredibly essential link that makes the Mayo Clinic Diet the "success-for-a-lifetime" that it is. If you're buying The Mayo Clinic Diet..... then buy The Mayo Clinic Diet Journal at the same time. It will change your life for the good, for ever!

A definate "MUST HAVE" with the Mayo Clinic Diet Book!

This journal is a must have to accompany the book of the same title. It is easy to follow and will make your weight loss journey much more lucrative. I lost 6 pounds the first week and am in my fifth week with a total loss of 14 pounds. I have overcome many food addictions too. I have about 150 to lose all together. I have been on many diets over the past 20 years. I will never need to diet again. I eat a lot of food that is healthy and good for me. I don't feel deprived at all. I still eat chocolate or cake when I want to but in moderation. Writing it all down is the key! Get this journal and the book. You won't be disappointed. I am 48 years old and diabetic. I take a lot of medication. I plan on taking a lot less in the near future! Thank you Mayo Clinic!

Very helpful tool for someone who enjoys "homework"

I love the charts, the space for goals, the accountability and sense of being part of a plan without a monthly fee that this provides. Very helpful.

Best Journal Ever

In my opinion this is the best Journal I have ever used. The only revision I would make is to make it a yearly format. Otherwise, it is well constructed and fun to use. It is a good tool in the weight loss battle.

One Persons Journey Through A World of Books Thoughts:

I love journaling my way through projects and this journal is no exception. This is actually the type of journal I have looked for at book stores for years and could not find. This is a workout and healthy eating journal that has you document your food and your exercise daily. With space for comments and goals.... it is an ideal way to keep track of your own personal fitness goals. The way this porgram was set up and by using the book to go along with the journal - I found this to be a great motivator.
