Count on Health Counts

This is one of the best calorie count books I have ever used. It gives a comprehensive, but not overwhelming list of basic foods. More importantly, it lists homemade foods like meatloaf and macaroni salad so you don't have to go through the tedious process of adding calories of all the ingredients. The introduction gives basic information on how to go on a "no diet" eating plan, behavior modification, understanding fat, and goal setting. It has a food log that can be copied. I recommend this book to all my clients who need to lose weight.
