I wouldn't suggest this book as a "diet" per se. It has calorie recommendations, portion control, and lots of useful information, but it does rely heavily on one's fondness for pita bread. And anyone can get bored with eating the same thing day after day, and this is basically a sandwich-based diet using one type of bread.
As a cookbook though, especially for someone who's single and/or on the go a lot or who just doesn't cook much, this book really shines. There's things I never thought of putting in a pita pocket (and why I just don't know), and there's a surprising amount of creativity using a handful of common ingredients. I keep it with my cookbooks rather than diet/nutrition, and so far, it's been fun to use.

Product Description:
Easy and convenient, the Pocket Diet & Recipe Book teaches portion control by using pita pockets (each holding 2-3 ounces of food) to monitor portion sizes. Along with great tasting pita pockets the plan consists of fruit, low fat yogurt, raw veggies, nuts, and other healthy choices at various intervals throughout the day. Rather than eating three big meals, the plan is designed so that you will have several small ones and will rarely, if ever, go hungry. So shed those extra pounds - and keep them off --with the Pocket Diet.
