Customer Reviews

great common sense book, advice and guidance that works

Here I am again on the plan. Two years ago, I lost 10 pounds and one size on the 30 day plan. But I went back to my old habits, became sedentary, and gained back that weight plus some. I started a couple of months ago with exercise, no dietary modifications. No luck! I have been on this plan again for a week and I can feel it working already. This is the only plan that works for me, personally. I just hope I can stick with it for longer than 30 days!

Love the program, want to hear from others who tried it

I did the book, the first leanbodies book, back when it was very new and I lost 10 pds in the first 3 weeks. I was very excited, yes, the prep-arations are time consuming, but if you pre-cook, soups and stews, and chicken, fish etc, and freeze, you do save the hassle of last minute preparation, as cliff does suggest. I know i have tried numerous other programs without this quick success.I would like to hear from some more positive e-mails. You can contact me personally.

Expensive Grocery Bills...Although Good In Theory

The books content was both informative and educational. The dollars associated with the necessary meals was nearly $100 a week for two people, double what I would normally spend. Also, the time necessary to prepare the prescibed meals was impossible during the work week. It would take nearly an entire day to cook enough food for the entire week and all of the food we prepared (from the recommened cookbook) was over abundtly spicy. This plan is not time practical unless you enjoy spending a full day or late nights in the kitchen. In closing the book was good. But it's practicality in real life (time & dollars) is poor. Hey Cliff, maybe if you came out with your own line of prepared foods I'd give it another try!!!

Solid theories, easy to read and sensible.

If you're a working mother on a limited budget, this eating plan is not practical. I'm sure it would work if I'd had the money to buy the large amounts of fresh vegetables and fruit, the time to prepare it and the ability to exercise after the kids are in bed. I couldn't find carbohydrate powder at the local nutrition store, or just protein powder. It was all combined and VERY expensive. The mid-morning snack bars are also not cheap. The book gives excellent guidelines, but you really need to know how to create and cook or to buy the cookbook for ideas how to prepare the various food selections. This seems to be well researched, but just another frustration for the working mother who, in spite of running from dawn to midnight, still carries extra weight.
