The Pocket Diet & Recipe Book: Perfect Portion Control That Works!

I wouldn't suggest this book as a "diet" per se. It has calorie recommendations, portion control, and lots of useful information, but it does rely heavily on one's fondness for pita bread. And anyone can get bored with eating the same thing day after day, and this is basically a sandwich-based diet using one type of bread. As a cookbook though, especially for someone who's single and/or on the go a lot or who just doesn't cook much, this book really shines. There's things I never thought of putting in a pita pocket (and why I just don't know), and there's a surprising amount of creativity using a handful of common ingredients. I keep it with my cookbooks rather than diet/nutrition, and so far, it's been fun to use.
