The book is a nice daily read but I don't really consider it a devotional. I feel more like I am reading someone's daily journal. I enjoy the daily bible verses. I do get something out of those. If...
Daily Word for Weight Loss is a good "devotional" for anyone who wants to learn to feed their hungers in a way that is wise. Mostly it's encouragement -- not a book saying all the same things in...
I would recommend this book to anyone who needs to lose weight. I am at the start of my fourth week using this method and feel fantastic!! I have a long way to go but feel this is going to be a way...
I was so excited to see the Prism Diet available in book form that I bought it. I was disappointed however that it was justan overview of the program with referrals to your local support group or...
As a consumer of many books on Hormones this book was one of the worst I have read. It is a come on for nothing. It is just a rehash of the insulin connection to obesity. It is strange that most...
The title makes it sound like a clone of Atkins, but it's not. I think this is unfortunate, because the book gets lost in a sea of diet books. As a diet book, this isn't the best, but this is...
I've tried every diet known to man, losing some weight each time, but gaining more back than I'd lost. I really hit a personal low emotionally after the deaths of my parents (they died just 13 days...
I ordered Weigh Down thinking that it would help me scriptural lose weight. I don't know if it is the book's perspective or my perspective that is at fault, but it didn't work for me. It may for...
The author has some good tips about eating only when hungry and not feeding your emotions....just your stomach, but this book is much more than about eating. It is all about the Church of Gwen and...
This is an insightful and enlightening guidance on how to reduce weigh through adopting some eating and exercising habits. Drawing from his experiences, Dr Ali explains why we gain weight. He...
Over the years my husband and I have tried several ways of getting healthy and dropping pounds--usually quitting them with little results and a bad taste in our mouths. But this cookbook works and...
I am the queen of counting calories and this book is #1! I have tried several of the recipes (including desserts) and it is phenomenal how good the food tastes. Even when I reach my goal weight,...
The book is spiral bound, and while it allows the book to lie flat on a countertop, the pages don't turn easily. I think the problem is that the spiral binder is too small for the book. The pages...
I had been suffering with chronic constipation and IBS for 52 years and had gone to numerous doctors and healers for help. I stumbled across this book in a Sydney, Australia bookstore 5 months ago,...
This physician should remove his picture from the book cover as he looks to be seriously overweight himself, and thus not a good advertisement for his book. If he follows his own diet plan, then...
Educational main stream ideas with a taint of obsession with drugs
Unlike non-medical writers, Mr. Whitaker adheres to the commonly accepted standards of managing excess body weight. He sticks with the basics of low carbohydrates, condemns Atkin's deviation on fat...
After I read both the diet cure and the mood cure, I had the (dis)pleasure to meet Ms. Ross at her recovery center in Marin. It was awful. She has a prescribed plan that is one size fits all (for...
It can get a bit tedious at times and if you buy all the recommended supplements, you'll be spending a fortune. However, I did think the research was thorough and they had some really great points....
Excellent guide to dieting and what you need to eat to lose weight...a lot to read on the topic; however, there are some very helpful tips in this book.
This book may be useful if you have only a modest amount to lose and know very little about weight loss. In that case, the advice here -- fill up on vegetables, don't skip meals -- may help you...
This book does contain useful information based on scientific facts, not quick fixes and fads; but its delivery is BORING. It just doesn't make the information interesting or compelling. And it...
I had been suffering with chronic constipation and IBS for 52 years and had gone to numerous doctors and healers for help. I stumbled across this book in a Sydney, Australia bookstore 5 months ago,...
I bought this book/cd for an online class. Facts are facts and that is what I needed it for. But the CD and Book do not always corelate the same information, for instance in the book it states...
As a pre-nursing instructor, I find this text very easy to follow and love the nursing process approach it takes. It is a wonderful reference for ongoing clinical practice. Excellent instructor...
This Book Has Truth In It That Will Change Your Health And Change Your life - I Know - It Did mine!!!
This is an EXCELLENT book! I highly recommend it. You will learn so much in this book and it will help change your life. Are you tired of being sick? Tired of going to Doctors and paying large sums...
It seems this is more about God than a diet. I haven't gotten through much of the book and it could be that. Maybe the diet stuff is later in the book. I don't care how this diet came about as much...
I was very disappointed after going through this book. I felt it was not only preachy, but very wordy. I also purchased the book "Recipes for Life" by his wife, Rhonda Malkmus. If your...
This book is good for those who put food before God, but if that is not your problem don't bother with it. If you are not sure, I would read it just to see if you are stumbling into sin with your...
I just wanted to give an update on my progress. I cannot, with good conscience, support Diane's program any longer. I am currently weight training, doing cardio, and eating healthy. Eating...
This book details a concise, prayer-focused, hunger-and-fullness approach to weight loss. That part is great. The part I have reservations about is choosing to fast one meal a day.
"I love this diet" I'm in my mid 30's and I have lost 30 pounds, went from a size 9-11 to a size 6. I really don't understand all this other people that said it was waste of money or wate of...
This book has a lot of information in it. Maybe a little too much information. If I had the time to "sit down and enjoy every bite" then I think this diet would have worked for me. Perhaps a later...
My advice to anyone wanting to lose weight is to save your money by avoiding anymore diet books. There is only one way to lose weight -- eat less and exercise more. No matter what title an author...
Orderd Cookbook, the 3Hour Diet Book, & 3Hour Diet On the Go, received 2 of the diet books, no cook book. Probably be my last purchase if they can't send the items ordered, and have no way I could...
This book is an inspiration for me. The author(s) explain the underlying causes of weight gain, including the psychological ones. They also offer easy-to-understand, practical advice on how to lose...
I HAVE TO FIRST SAY I AM 29 YEARS OLD AND HAVE BEEN USING EDWARDS PROGRAM FOR OVER 5 YEARS, I WAS ALSO A BIT SKEPTICAL WHEN I SAW HIM ON T.V., HERE'S ANOTHER GIMMICK BUT WHY NOT TRY IT--I HAVE DONE...
I'm scratching my head after comparing some of the claims made in this book with Jackowski's previous one, Escape Your Shape. The whole basis of Escape Your Shape was that different body types...
The 63 used books starting at $3.49 speaks for itself. This book is full of ego and complete ignorance of what 'normal' people go through to lose weight and exercise. The only part of this book...
I started the McDougall Program for Maximum Weight Loss 3 months ago. Since then, I've lost 25 pounds! I also went down one pant size! I just combined the diet with very light exercise (30 minute...
Good stuff but some of the selling is a little over the top
The main problem I have with it is this; you're constantly being sold by the author on the "McDougall Program for Maximum Weight Loss" all the way through. I already bought your book, you don't...
I'm happy so many have succeeded at this plan. It sounded really good to me, but after following it for about two weeks, I didn't lose any weight and was very susceptible to refined carbs. Oh and...
This is an excellent book. Dr. Mercola is not afraid to speak the truth about grains and sugars or anything that concerns our health and welfare. For most people, our bodies can't handle all the...
This diet makes sense.Follow the profit for big business. High carb diets with lots of cheap to grow grain or a natural hunter-gatherer diet. Large amounts of grains in our diet are a historically...
This is a lifestyle changing book as much as a diet book. It's about eating high fiber and healthy foods. Eating high fiber means that food stays with your longer, helps you stay 'regular', and...
While I think the basics of the book are good, I don't like how fat-free items are treated as always being the best option. I did much better on the South Beach Diet, where good fats in moderation...
I lost 184 pounds on the Atkins eat plan in 21 months, and have kept that weight off for five years now. My cholesterol and blood sugar are both great, and I am sure the blood sugar in particular...
while I didn't agree with everything in the book, the info was very interesting, and easy to read. the tips in the book & menus provided good info on how to implement a healthier diet.
Although it has a lot of good suggestions, I found this book disappointing. The author states that vegetarian and raw food diet is dangerous, sounds like someone who has never tried this diet and...
The Great Physician's Rx for Weight Loss by Jordan Rubin, David M. Remedios
A must read for anyone who desires to lose weight and/or get back to living in better health. Factual and common sense information in an easy to read 100 page book.
Much good advice about healthy living...but it is imbedded in 100 pages of sales pitch. This book is basically the Hallelujah Diet reborn. The diet works, but you have to be disciplined and buy...
Jordan Rubin's Biblical approach to health is fascinating and sensible. However, this particular book does not deliver what is promised. It purports itself to be a book specifically for weight...
Sketchy information and hard to decipher..............
I'm not a proponent of low-carb diets, so this book really wasn't for me...but for those who are, it's a good book. It's a little hard to follow his plan and distill it down to a workable plan....
This book is written as if Mr. Heavin were talking to you, so it's easy to understand. I read it all in one sitting, but read it again to review the key points. I was only trying to lose the...
This is the book I lost weight with. I call a plan "easy" when you don't have to think about what to have for 2 of your meals. I need to know, so I don't start eating just anything because I'm...
I read this book and tried the diet for three weeks. Although I didn't feel hungry and thought the shakes were okay, I found myself suffering from headaches and just not feeling very well in...
I have purchased and read the book and will be giving this a try. For those of you that have been successful....what brand of soy protein are you using? I have found one at GNC. Not willing to...
