It really does work

I bought this book a couple of months ago out of sheer desperation. I took the test and was surprised to find that i had been eating all the wrong things. I started to follow the eating plan and by the second week I started to feel great. My clothes began to fit great, my bloated stomach disappeared and so did my pms symptoms. It was an amazing tranformation. My husband noticed right away and so did my co workers. I ended up photocopying the book for several of them. I have been off the "eating plan" for a month and I am back to sqaure one. Its not a diet, it's a way of life. I pulled the book out and I'm starting again today.

I lost 25 pounds using the Blance method

I love the Balance. It is so easy to follow. I took the quiz--It was so easy and quick. Once I found out what kind of burner I was I ate the foods and took the supplements Oz suggested. I was never tired. In fact my energy level increased! I lost 25 pounds! I look and feel great and I eat so much healthier.

THIS BOOK WAS POWERFUL FOR ME.

THIS BOOK EDUCATED ME ENORMOUSLY ABOUT HOW TO EAT. IT EXPLAINED TO ME ABOUT HOW THE FOODS I WAS EATING WERE CONTRIBUTING TO MY MOOD SWINGS, MY PROBLEMS WITH MY CRAVINGS AND MY WEIGHT. I LOST 18 POUNDS SINCE I BEGAN THE BALANCE PROGRAM LAST YEAR AND HAVE CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN MY WEIGHT. I'M EXTREMELY HAPPY I READ THIS BOOK.

Excellent! It was just what I had been looking for!

I had been experiencing swings in my energy, ability to concentrate, dizziness, and no matter what I ate or didn't eat, didn't lose weight. I sat down and read the first few chapters in one sitting, and could not put it down. It was describing me to a tee! After understanding why some diets didn't work for me and what led to my "out of balance" chemistry in my body, everything started making sense of what was going on with me. Immediately, once I understood what had been going on, I lost the desire to over-eat or eat the wrong foods for the first time in my life. The knowledge and understanding gave me such a sense of hope and seemed so "right" that my appetite just slowed down. In the past week, I have lost 4 pounds, have actually forgotten to eat lunch for the first time in my life twice this week! I am not having to make myself stop eating. It is like I choose not to eat too much or the wrong foods and it doesn't bother me at all. That came from understanding what was happening to me and having hope that I could finally get healthy and fit and my desired weight.

Excellent book for everyone - nutrition made simple!

I have known Oz for about three years. I started as his patient and am now his friend. He helped me regain my health from a chronic illness. His book is an excellent summary of his practices. You can learn a lot from it - regardless of your age or body type. It is an easy read and his programs are relatively easy to follow. Of course, like any other diet or lifestyle plan, you need some discipline. However, Oz offers an excellent way of life, which is what such a program should be.
