Dr. Ann's 10 Step Diet: A Simple Plan for Permanent Weight Loss and Lifelong Vitality

Lots and LOTS of underlining, circled words, notes

Dr Ann's 10 step plan is great. It follows the same glycemic index model that the South Beach diet does, but Dr Ann's explanations of the role of blood sugar and insulin in the body really helped me understand why this diet works and is so healthy. She has a section in the book about various diseases and conditions, and specific foods to focus on. My husband has lost 15 lbs and I have lost 10 lbs in the 5 weeks since we started the diet, and we are eating healthier than ever before, and enjoying it.

This is not a "diet" plan, but rather a clear explanation of healthy eating and lifestyle. I have given it to others who also have found this book very helpfull, and have then purchased copies for friends.

This is a no-nonsense, cut-to-the-chase book which gives you the information you need to eat sensibly. In a world of empty diet promises that offer weight loss that cannot be maintained, this book gives readers a formula for life. What a relief to read diet/nutrition information that does not come with a sales pitch for products that cannot offer a long-term solution. Thank you, Dr. Ann.

Dr. Ann has written a book that explains in easy to read text about ways to improve your health. I am following her suggestions and find that I can still eat many foods that I enjoy. I think this would be especially good for overweight children so they may have a healthier adult life. R.L. Ward,M.D. (South Carolina)

I am so excited about Dr. Ann's book. I have read several diet books but this one is by far the best. It has helped me to understand how certain foods affect my whole body. She explains the hazards of foods like white carbs in such a way that motivates you to stay away from them. In the same way she provides all the facts on the right foods and gives you lists of certain foods to buy at the grocery store as well as what to avoid. Her book is easy to read and one of the most motivating books on healthy eating that I've ever read.
