Summary: The best diet book I've ever read
Comment: Finally, somebody who has a clue about what makes some diets succeed while others fail. This book has helped me achieve real weight loss with so much less stress than I'm used to. How come my doctor didn't tell me about this? This book abandons the cookie-cutter approach to diets that try to fit me and everybody else into a single plan. Dr. Sanders doesn't have a gimmick--she has figured out what your individual needs are and gives you a diet based on that.
Everyone self-conscious about their weight, even when not dieting, should read this book to understand why they eat what they eat and how they can change.

Summary: Knowledge and variety are the keys!!!
Comment: I've got at least a dozen diet books under my belt (not to mention just a few extra pounds) and finally I have found one that describes a world I understand. I am a veteran of the Zone diet (too hard to figure out), the Atkins diet (too dull and I felt awful), the carbohydrate addicts diet (managed to make up for all the missed carbs of the day in my one free meal)
and a whole bunch of others. When they didn't work I just figured it was me. I knew these diets had worked for friends. I couldn't figure out why they didn't work for me. This book tells me what I should have known all along: one size doesn't fit all. And none of them were working for me. Now I understand why. Dr. Sanders book helped me recognize that the best diet for
me is one that lets me get the variety I need by looking at calories rather than carbs. And while I still eat fewer carbs that I used to, I understand now that I can't be happy on a diet that makes bread completely off limits.I wanted a low carb diet because my friends told me I'd never be hungry and it wasn't true. But on this diet, I'm never hungry and I feel free to eat the foods I love and I'm losing weight like crazy.
Another aspect of this book that I think makes it so great is that the author explains how all this works. I'm no dummy I am pretty well informed about food and nutrition, but there was alot of info in this book that I just didn't know.
For me, knowing how something works helps me figure out how to do it my way. For instance, now I know it's protein that makes me feel full and variety that makes me feel satisfied. I can choose meals and snacks that I'm sure will hit the spot -- make me feel full and keep me full until
the next meal or snack. And feeling full, and knowing that I'm going to feel full, makes it easy for me to stick to this diet.
One thing you need to know about this book -- and I was prewarned so let me pass it on to you -- is that you won't be able to start the diet the day you buy the book. Dr. Sanders makes you keep a diary of what you eat for one week before
you start. Writing all that down isn't easy and yet doing it was probably the best investment I've made in my health in quite a long time. Maybe ever.
This may be the last diet book I'll ever need to buy.

Summary: A great approach!
Comment: I've been on tons of diets and when they didn't work -- or at least not for long -- I just figured it was me. But it wasn't just me; it was me on those diets. They didn't fit me and I didn't know why. Now I have a much better understanding and I've started a new diet (counting calories) and I get it. I really get it. And I'm losing weight, just to prove it. The test will be if I can maintain the loss but I feel confident that I am designing a diet that's going to fit me and that I can stick to forever. I love this book! And I bet you will too.
