How I Gave Up My Low-Fat Diet and Lost 40 Pounds (Revised and Expanded Edition) [Paperback] Review

I am a born sceptic.I also have been obsessed with food for my entire adult life.When I am going to eat, what I am going to eat, where I am going to eat, if there will be enough food left by the time I get to thefront of the line... Not a very nice way to live.This book HAS CHANGEDMY LIFE!So far, everything she has said has been true.Everything thatshe said would happen, has happened.And it's not hard to do at all!Sure, the initial adjustment to serving a meal with no potatoes or bread isa little odd, but you get over it pretty fast.Somehow, this diet justclicked with me.After reading her book, I have at least 6 more reasons toeat this way than just to lose weight.That's not even my focus any more! She explained all the different approaches of all these other authors andshows you how to pick and choose which aspects of which approaches willwork best for you.It's remarkably easy to read, too!
I used this bookalong with Lauri's Lo-Carb Cookbook and the Greg Smithey "EasyToning" tape, and I lost 10 pounds the first week and, I don't know ifmy initial measurement was wrong or what, but I lost and INCH off my waist! I have ordered the rest of Mr. Smithey's "Easy" videos now, anduse Lauri's cookbook everyday.I have not yet found a recipe I or myhusband didn't like.
I hope you find something that works for you.Butfor my money, this was the best that was out there for me.

Product Description:
This book is a breezy, chatty, non-technical, fun-to-read explanation of low carbohydrate dieting why it works, the surprising health benefits, and most importantly, how to approach low carb dieting.
The book details three very different main approaches to controlling carbohydrates (including the Basic Low Carb Diet, similar to Atkins or Protien Power, and the Mini-Binge Diet, popularized as the Carbohydrate Addict?s Diet), plus several variations, finally summing up the basic principles which tie them all together.
The point is to give the reader the tools necessary to construct a new way of eating that will fit his or her body, psyche, and lifestyle, thus allowing them to stay slim, energetic, and healthy for life.

George Stella's Livin' Low Carb: Family Recipes Stella Style (Paperback) Review

This is one of the best of the plethora of low carb cookbooks in the train that this glycemic index relevaltion has created.

Why one of the best?How about a family of four losing a combined total of 560 pounds on it?How about a gourmet chef who gives us what worked with them to achieve this?How about unique approach and recipes which apply this?

I was attracted to this after watching George on his FoodNetwork program.He is very humble, yet reliable credentialed chef who has experiemnted with many twists and combos of good cooking yet with low carb.

It avoids lots of the scientific stuff but emphasizes what must happen in pantry and cooking to achieve a healthier diet habit.Sugar and carbs are of course the focus.His approach is doable and the taste is exceptional.I especially like his approach with heavy cream, butter and low-carb foods.

What I find especially attractive is his breakfast section, one of the toughest meals of the day for most of us to habitually maintain healthy and yet one of the most important.So there is such variety and ease of prep here, with great muffin and omelet and blinis and quiche.Great advice to make them up in advance, freeze and then micro each morning with coffee.Try: "Ham and Cheddar Morning Muffins" or "George's Gorgeous Macadamia Banana Muffins" or "On-Hand Omelet."

The other menu sections are equally creative, filling and easy to prep: Grilled Country-Style Pork Ribs with Bourbon Barbecue Sauce; Ham and Mock Potato Soup; Chocolate Pecan Brownies with Cream Cheese Frosting; Jicama Matchstick Fries; Minute Steak Salad; Tequilla Chicken;

There are some 125 recipes in this collection, with easy to follow instructions and advice as well as some color photos.I appreciate the choice of paperback and resultant price for this.Great addition to one's collection or as only low carb source.Highly recommended.
