If you've ever read "Fit For Life", then you know everything you need to about this book. "Fit For Life" is far superior. Marilu just reiterates the same "Fit For Life" health plan in her own words. I don't find her entertaining, nor did I find this book interesting or different from other health books I've read. I'm giving it 2 stars instead of 1 only because the eating/health concepts are good.

After you read this you will never look at dairy products the same way again. Although it has some extreme diet tips, there are others I have adopted since reading this and I feel so much better!! It is amazing what food can do to you.
This book has some very good ideas about improving one’s diet and lifestyle. I know after reading it back in 1998 I changed some of my habits for the better and shared it with some of the women I worked with at the time. However, like most things, I’ve resorted to old habits—makes me think I should reread it.
If you can actually follow this plan, you will be in the best shape of your life. I did it for about two months in 2001 and was in the best shape of my life. I fell off the wagon with some cheese though and it was all over.
This book made the scientific aspects of food accessible to me. To this day this book continues to be the foundation of my ideas about good eating and health.

This book changed my life! Read it the first time approx 10 years ago, but continue to practice & refer to things I learned from it everyday.
This is about Macrobioics, which is food combining for iptimal health and super high energy. It works, and it is awesome!!
Marilu Henner has a great writing style; funny & honest. She will educate the reader on the right foods to eat to stay healthy & energized. Somewhat of an expert, she transformed her body from obese & lethargic to healthy & energetic. I've read this book several times and enjoyed it equally each time. It's time to take a look at what we eat & move our bodies. Life is too short!
I found such interesting information in this book. I have started to implement some of the steps in the book. I have cut out dairy....which I NEVER thought I would do. I've gone five days now and I'm feeling great. I am not even craving it like I thought I would. I do think Ms. Henner is a bit fanatical but overall the information in this book is really interesting and she has used a lot of resources. It is written in an easy to read format and it's also quite funny in parts.
Again, another book purchased by a well meaning person who appears to know very little about my reading habits. I'll read just about anything with the this one caveat: IT MUST BE WELL WRITTEN.
I don't even like Taxi nor do I recall expressing an opinion on Marilu Henner. For years I've confused her with Denise Miller (Sooner or Later)!
I can't even seem to give this away. Whenever I put a box of books on the curb, this is usually the only thing left!

Such good information in this book. I've become the health nut I am today because of the information I read in Marilu's books. I've eliminated dairy and preservatives from my diet and cut back my consumption of meat. I am most thankful to this series of books for putting me on the path to good health and making me so much more informed of these matters.
Really good book. It's not necessarily a diet book so much as a nutrition book, which is exactly what I was looking for. I was doubtful that an actress would be able to provide any real nutritional information, but Marilu knows her stuff. I've followed several of her recommendations and felt the difference right away. Smart lady!
This is a really good book if you're looking to make some simple changes in your life to become more healthy. I like her approach on taking baby steps to make effective long-term changes to your body and health.
Fabulous way to live. Everyone should try this.
