Customer Reviews

Fast results, hunger free, basic foods, little prep=best diet ever.

Please reprint this wonderful book so that everyone can get a copy. I know that low carbing is "out" these days, but only a month on this program will show such great results in your body and energy level. It's basically a pure protien diet, with little to no fat or carbs, so you can imagine how blah the food choices are (eggs and lean meats). Also, I do think that this should be a short term program, followed no more than one month (all that protien is hard on the kidneys!). I had about 40 pounds to lose and lost 28 in one month. During that month I researched what healthy eating entails so that I could keep losing and not gain anything back. That worked fine for me. Will power is needed, the food choices are silm ang get old quick, but the fast track to health with ease makes it worth it. Please reprint this book so that every dieter can enjoy it!!

Amazing results for me

I went on this diet in 1975 when I weighed 250lbs. I dropped 20 pounds the first week--I stay on the diet for about 3 months and weighed 170lb when I got married. 25years later I weigh 190lbs. I was never hungary on this diet and to keep my sanity, I usually ate normally on Sundays.

A Reader From Buffalo NY

Outstanding,Dr. Stillman give you facts to help "scare" the fat off you. I loss 20lbs the first week with a total loss of 100lbs in six months and have kept it off. Because of my results and the inprovement of my health this book should be back in print.

Doctor's Quick Weight Loss Diet

Great diet. Used it in the 1970s with easy, hunger free, weight loss. Atkins cites Stillman for creating a prototype for Atkins' popular high protein - low carb diet, which allows greater fat intake. However, for those who have difficulty losing weight with higher fat intake, Atkins recommends a lower fat approach, which he doesn't clearly describe. This book succinctly defines such an approach. Please REPRINT this wonderful book, recommended by my obstetrician in the 1970s

Best diet I ever tried!

I used this diet back in the 70's. Weight loss was incredible. It was so easy. Now that high-protein diets are back, his beat all I've seen so far. This book needs to be republished!
