Arthur Agatston, Joseph Signorile

Rodale Books, 2008

South Beach Works
I recently turned 45 and after a cruise vacation with my husband I came home 142 pounds. I had done the SBD years ago, lost weight and foolishly abandoned the principles. I immediately went and dusted off my old copy. I started 9 weeks ago and also started walking 30 minutes a day on a treadmill. I'm now 125 pounds. All my clothes are at the tailor's being taken in. I look better, I feel ...

Benbella Books, 2006

Life or death information
This book was recommended to me by a friend. It took me a while to get the book...and a few months before I got to it. Once I started reading it, I was on fire...and telling anyone who would listen. Every human being should be able to read this book. Dr. Campbell lays out the research in understandable terms...and it is shocking to read.

This book ROCKS!
I read this book cover to cover twice. I am not a vegan or a vegetarian. I've researched a lot of nutrition information over the years due to my own or family members' health issues. This book is so in your face! I loved it! Beyond PC and any psuedo "sensibility" offenses, this book gives real good info, with a much needed kick in the b**t! I could list several more very reputable resources that ...

David Zinczenko, Matt Goulding

Rodale Books, 2007

This little book will shock you into better choices
This book is great if you still want to eat out and make wise food choices. The majority of the book breaks down choices at many regular restaurants and fast food restaurants. On facing pages you are presented with the "Eat This" choice on one side and "Not That" on the other. It not only shows what the better choice is, but it breaks down the fat and calories from both. Here's one example: ...

Mehmet Oz, Michael F. Roizen

Collins Living, 2008

THE YOU MANUAL REVIEW
I have merely read random chapters /pages off the Manual and I am already totally convinced it is a wonderful buy that I have made. The style of presentation is easy-going even when it is dealing with serious subjects and that is good for a Manual one wants to read in a relaxed mode.

Allan Borushek

Allan Borushek & Assoc. Inc / Family Health Pub., 2007

excellent resource
Great book to help you keep track of those calories. I live in Sacramento and recently joined Mama Bootcamp Body by Code and her program requires that we keep track of calories. Being the complete idiot that I am when it comes to calories, I quickly bought this book and it has helped a lot. There are a lot of items listed which is very helpful for people like myself who know nothing about ...

Peter J. D'Adamo

Putnam Adult, 1996

I feel great
If your goal is to read a book that will provide you with peer reviewed articles cited, scientific studies referred to, etc. before you try the diet then you should save your money because you will not find these things here. If all you do is read the book, and you want hard science, look elsewhere. BUT, if you are willing to experiment with your diet based on anecdotal evidence only because ...

The knowledge in this book, and the way he lays it out is very useful especially if you are just starting out into 'fitness world' and have little knowledge or experience.

My wife and I decided on this program after much research. We read both the posoitive and the negative.
