Diet & Weight Loss Books

This book is really good, they do a little bit of cutting and pasting from the Men's Version of this book. This is kind of like the Remix for Women if you will. Alot of good meals and exercises just for women in here. Very educational. If you...

this book was not what i had expected. I have all the other Abs diet books, and it seems to be all repeat information. It's a good diet, but I feel as if they are just producing more and more books with all the same old information in it .. which...

I think this book provides solid basic information for women looking to lose weight. Being a new mom, I especially liked the post-partum workout plan and info. But as someone who has followed lots of diets and been in the battle of the bulge for...

I'm 36, female, and 50lbs. overweight according to my family doctor's chart. I learned about the Master Cleanse from watching a makeover show and Robin Quivers was featured. I began the cleanse THE next day! I lost 15 lbs in 15 days and haven't...

Book is primarily quotes from others during different periods of their fast. Could be much better if info was not duplicted so often and experiencial quotes were organized by fast timeline

The book does give great advice about the fast, but most of the content is taken from previous posts from Glickman's website. Could have gone to this at no charge and gotten a bulk of the information presented in this book. All in all I did not...

The China Study is a must-read breakthrough book for anyone interested in issues concerning scientific integrity and the fields of health and nutrition. Through this brilliantly written and highly readable book, Professor T. Colin Campbell and son...

This book is certainly worth the read, due to its relevance and popularity, and the massive epidemiological study after which it was named is certainly deserving of attention, due to the magnitude of its its scope. But both must be done with a...

A well documented study by the author justifying the importance of a vegetarian diet. I feel the content of the text could have been reduced in half and still met its mission. I would support having the book included as a reading for high school...

This diet is easy to follow and the results are immediate. I lost at least 10 pounds when I first started and then did not bother to keep track. I am 125 pounds now.

Once my clothes fit nicer and I no longer had that uncomfortable...

This book is much too complicated for what it needs to be. The one point she makes in this book that I agree with is "you need to bring in less garbage into your body today that you did yesterday".
This book is close to 300 pages but it...

This book is valuable in that it presents an approachable way to "detox" and eat in a way that's healthful for most of the population. That's a big distinction to make, however, in that there are some people for whom this diet needs to be...

Throw out every diet book you own! Ignore all the other exercise prescriptions out there! The Abs Diet makes them completely obsolete!

This revolutionary and scientifically based plan sets a brand new standard in weight loss and fitness! It's...

Abs diet?

come on. Does fat know where to go?

Oh, Mr. Oreo, please don't go to my abs, go to my calf?

If you think fat has intelligence and won't go to your abs, then you need a shrink, not a diet book.

This book is a great read for people new to eating right and weight training. It is very easy to follow and to understand.
The no measurements, no calorie counting is a strong point of the book as is the basic workout for a weightlifting...

I don't know how anyone can post a review of this book yet, when it isn't even available for 2 more weeks!!

This is an OBVIOUS attempt at someone trying to sabotage the show and the week (probably someone from Jillian's book...

I was so excited to get this book only to find that it is nothing but fluff. Bob Harper did not actually write the book, he only wrote the forward.

As for the diet plan, there really isn't one. It's really just a series of anecdotes...

I actually read this book and Jillian Michaels book Winning By Losing. I think this book is interesting and fun because it does give you insights into the contestants and their trials and tribulations. I do agree that as far as nutrition plans...

First, if you have a choice between the hardcover OR softcover of this supplement (I'm not sure there is a choice anyway)...get the softcover...the book is small in size, low priced and, therefore, portable...

Second, this is NOT a...

I received both the Abs Diet and the Eat Right Every Time Guide as a gift. I found the first book to be very valuable, jam packed with information on the Abs Diet program including exercise, nutrition, comparison programs, etc.

If you've read "The Abs Diet," then you can easily skip this book. However, for the low price, this is a handy little reference that will help you stay on track. If it costed more than $10, I would say skip it. But for the price, I'd recommend...

Essentially this book is an enormous integration of data from scientific and medical journals. Dr. Fuhrman (...) shows that the same diet that helps you maintain a healthy weight is the same diet that reverses heart disease and diabetes, and helps...

I had high hopes for this book & Fuhrman's plan. I was already a vegetarian, so the vegan aspect wasn't too frightening. Dropping the dairy & eggs wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Sugar now gives me headaches, and it's probably better that...

I read this book and tried it and lasted 2 days. I just couldn't stand eating so many vegetables, whole grains and fruits. It became nauseating. That's the problem with most diets...they have you eating A LOT of a certain food group and you...
