Customer Reviews

Best book I ever bought!!!!

My husband and I eat out at least 3 times a week and I found that my weight was going in the wrong direction VERY quickly. This book is a great resource! It is really easy to use. It has helped me lose the extra weight and make better dining decisions. The only downside to this is that the book has not been updated recently.

Don't leave home without this book!

Everyone with an interest in their health should have a copy of this book in their home. This book is a wonderful and resourceful guide earning a 5 star rating from ThePigOutDiet.com staff.

FAT-GRAM GUIDE IS INDISPENSIBLE

Piscatella's "The Fat-Gram Guide To Restaurant Food" is a great reference book to have in your home. It's amazing (and sad!) how bad for you most of your favorite foods are. The book offered some common-sense, realistic advice. For example, it suggested eating the regular Wendy's hamburger instead of the Junior version. It's only a difference of a few fat grams, but you'll be more full. The book also has a COMPLETE listing of most of the brand-name food served at fast-food restaurants. It really helped me choose "healthier" alternatives to what I'd normally order. For example, a McDonald's EggMcMuffin has only 12 grams of fat compared to over 40 for a Bacon-Egg-Cheese Biscut. I learned all this information in only a sitting with the guide. I know I will definitely keep it handy and refer to it from time to time. And, for under $7, it was well worth it!
