A True "Homer's" Odyssey
I just finished reading My
Big
Fat Greek
Diet last
night, and I must say that it is the most profound message that I have read...ever.
Dr. Nick has overcome a Herculean task and has s
how
n to everyone who has ever had a weight problem that - no matter how much
you have
to lose - you
can
do it!
Unlike most "diet books", t
his book
connects with both men and women, explores many popular options available to acheive your goals, and inspires the reader to make a paradigm shift in their outlook on weight loss. This is the key to success! There are plenty of books that show you "HOW" to lose weight and "WHAT" to do to get there, this book answers the "WHY" we should lose weight. If you are overweight, buy this book. It is a pleasure to read and an inspiration to anyone who has ever struggled time and time again with the humiliation and pain of being obese.

a dieters best friend
My friend recommended t
his book
highly and she recommended a great new beverage that replaced my morning cup of joe. Caffeine made me
too jittery
so I switched to a soy-based coffee that taste simply amazing. When I use my percolator it comes out with a rich, full bodied taste. Search under "S oyfee" on google to find it.

WHAT A REMARKABLE, LIFE-CHANGING STORY!
Since reading Dr. Nick's book and seeing
how
he has openly shared
his story
, I have made my own decision to get on the path to healthy eating. I don't have as much weight to lose as he did, but there is one thing that anyone who has had a weight problem knows, the feelings of shame and the comments people make about someone heavy, are pretty much all the same. The pain is great and that in itself
can
be a cause for over-indulging and the unfortunately, the food does not mask the pain but it only gets worse. The seven pillars in his book and the desire to change from the inside out are what motivates me. My hope is that I can be another example of how to properly treat my body and to be able to control what I eat, not letting what I eat to control me and keep me in the ever vicious circle of losing and regaining. What a cycle that needs to be broken! I would recommend this book to anyone who has experienced the yo-yo syndrome of
diet
ing and wants to look at food in a different way. Dr. Nick has shared his experience to help others - God bless him for that!

A Big Fat Miracle
I feared t
his
was just another
diet book
(and I have them all) but was happily wrong. The first half detailing Dr. Nick's weight loss is personal, compassionate, filled with adventure and loaded with humor. I couldn't put the book down!
The second half has really changed my life. I view my relationship with food totally differently making more conscious, responsible decisions as a result of Dr. Nick's 12 Pillars. He has helped me see
how
my life is out of balance and that the weight is only a symptom, not the problem.
I lost 16 pounds in 12 days quite easily as a result of getting my head on straight. For the first time I have confidence that I will lose all of my excess weight (I was scheduled for weight loss surgery!) and keep it off with the inspiration of this terrific book.
I met Dr. Nick and his entire family at a book signing. He is one great guy and deeply committed to helping each person lose their weight and get healthy. Consider him to be
your personal
coach and be prepared to fall in love with this book!

Very logical, fact filled, and most of all inspiring!!
I just read Dr. Nick Yphantides new book "My
Big
Fat Greek
Diet
" and devoured it in a day. Dr. Nick shares
his journey
from a
467
lb man to a down-sized 200lb'er. It addresses logical/factual information as well as the emotional/illogical dimensions of being over weight and tackles them head on. I found it very inspiring and thought provoking and have now re-directed my diet plans to put me on the path to becoming a winner in the "losers" circle. Great Book!!! Scott B
