The Supermarket Diet

I have never written a review about anything, but I love this diet so much that I wanted to share it with others. I trully love this diet and I have REALLY tried them all. I have never lasted more than a week on a diet until now. I don't feel food deprived, hungry, moody, my energy is slowly returning and I'm still in the early stages of the diet (first two weeks), and I have already lost a few pounds too. The book is well written, easy to understand, and most importantly easy to follow. The author makes it all so simple. You are provided a shopping list broken down into catagories which makes your store visit quick. The diet is presented a week at a glance, with menus and recipes - it is so organized!!! This diet is superb for those like myself who are super busy, don't like to really cook, and like to grab things to eat quickly. The recipes are so simple to make and quick - less than 20 minutes! If you make a recipe for dinner, you eat it the next day for lunch so there is little waste and there is plenty to share with others even after you take your portions. Since the author teaches you the basics to eating healthy, and shopping healthy, it is a life style change that is longterm. I trully am very pleased with this book and so glad that I purchased it. Good luck!

I really the the simplistic approach of this book. The recipes are easy and tasty. There are also hints on how to stick to a weight loss program and exercise. I am beginning to find that after 6 weeks on this program that the meals are getting a bit boring.

This is an excellent work on the dynamics of weight control. The authors ask that we review reasons for overweight conditions;namely, genetic disposition and lack of quality exercise. For instance, there is a suggestion that we can outsmart our genetics with proper eating and frequent exercise. The program begins with a 2 week 1200/ calories per day boot camp regimen. Then up to 1500 calories per day is allowed. When the weight goal is reached, 1800 calories per day are allowed. The preferred shopping list should include the following: - beans, nuts, omega 3 fish oil foods - frozen broccoli - tortillas - veggie burgers - fat free 1% milk - cereals with Lastly, the author suggests that we formulate shopping lists and utilize them with little or no deviation. The work would be helpful in crafting a meaningful diet regimen.

This is a wonderful tool for making your supermarket a positive place to shop, find healthy choices and to learn new ways to negotiate those tempting food areas. I love the helpful hints for incorporating more healthy choices into your day...adding more fiber, natural sugars in fruits, even some healthy makeovers for those old favorites like smoothies and burritos. My favorites! It's hard to give up some of the fattening foods when you start a new diet, but in this book you will find alternatives to giving up those comfort foods and you'll see some wonderful replacements with delicious flavors and textures you didn't dream of before. You should definately try it! She has found the secret to shopping for food and staying fit forever!
