Customer Reviews

love the recipes

Like the previous reviewer, I've had this book since I was in high school, my mother bought it, but she never tried it. I've kept it because of the great recipes that the book offers. I forgot that I had the book and now that I've put on a few pounds, I've started using the diet plan again and have lost 7lbs in a month 1/2 and have not had any PMS symptoms and I also quit smoking at the same time, thinking that I would gain the dreaded ten pounds, but I actually lost 7 lbs. I love this book!

An Easy to use resource that really works

I used this book many years ago when I was in high school during the summer. I was a very chunky 16 year old who lost 30 pounds in 3 months. I was proud of myself but this book made it easy. The recipes were good, you could eat what you wanted as long as it fell within the week's parameters (pasta one week, veggies another, etc.) The diet even works for those that take a birth control pill since it takes both natural and "artificial" cycles into account. I have been recommending this book to friends even though I haven't used it in years. When I find it again, I am intent on using it again. It was successful the first time, why wouldn't it be again?
