It works!
I started using her program in conjunction with OA 3 years ago, and added regular exercise at a gym, and I'm down 100 lbs, and by following her suggestion of potato at night, I've been off of antidepressants since.

This food diary is designed for anyone working the seven steps towards radiance (i.e. living a sugar-free life).

Life saver
I wish I'd stumbled across this book years ago! I knew I had a problem with sugar that was unlike other people, but no one really believes in sugar addiction or sugar sensitivity, so I received no help, or even empathy, elsewhere. Some weight loss gurus suggest there is a link to "emotional eating," and urge people to get help with that, but that is an entirely different matter than having a ...

Your Last Diet! : The Sugar Addict's Weight-Loss Plan

Kathleen Desmaisons, 2001

I like it.
Worth every penny. This isn't a diet book so much as it is a book about how food affects your brain, and what you can do to get the results you want. While the information is fantastic the writting could be better. If you are looking for a "just the facts" presentation of the information, see the website. The book is couched in very friendly, over explained, language, that wanders around to ...

user friendly
This book was excellent: highly educational. The program seems user friendly, achievable and long-term. Part of the program includes avoiding white bread and rice later on, however, depending on your personal needs, it may not be totally necessary. (don't think I could give up french bread for the rest of my days).
