Great diet for vegetarians

I followed this diet and it has been the only thing I have tried in years that worked for me, and it is FAST. This program has a special vegetarian section where you can have beans, and some oatmeal. It's not such a low carb diet that you lose pep or get insane cravings. I also found the mind body exercises extremely valuable. He writes with the wisdom of a person who is on the path with you -- he fought his own battle with weight.I've been on it for 3.5 months and have lost 2 sizes. That may not seem fast to you, but I am post menopausal and usually have to exert enormous effort to drop any weight. This has been steady, and I feel comfortable on it. Amazing!

A Great Diet

My husband and I are on our 8th day of this diet and we are both feeling fantastic. It may seem complicated at first and the weighing and measuring may seem daunting but just wade right in and it all makes sense and becomes habit very quickly. There are some delicious recipes and it is an amazing thing to sit down to meals that are cooked with butter and cream and mayonaise and all those things that we have denied ourselves for years and to actually be loosing weight. I recommend this book compleatly.

A Diet That Works! Customized by Age...FINALLY!

I related very well to the author and this is the first diet book that addressed the needs of women who are peri-menopausal/ menopausal. Now that I know what to eat to lose weight, I am very excited and beleive that I can do it. Dr. Pescatore is inspiring and I highly recommend this book to anyone who has been on a diet that failed. This one will work for you! It's working for me! A great book to read and re-read for the inspiration to stay on a diet.

the healthiest way of eating

I am a physician who advocates a low carbohydrate diet. I feel this is the best book on this subject and recommend it to all of my patients. Finally a book that does the work for me in telling patients the healthiest way to eat. It is great for people who need to lose weight as well as those who don't. There are just no gimmicks and the mind-body approach is absolutely fantastic.
