This makes a lot of sense and is a quick and to the point read. I have been on it for 6 days now, and its not too hard. I just read the book today, so I actually could have been eating a bigger variety of things than I realized...making it even easier. Yes, you need to read all labels to check for sugar/syrups but I don't feel deprived. The facts/research in it are quite eye opening and sad really. The average American consumes 45 teaspoons of sugar per day (according to government studies)! We ...more
There are so many diets out there. Some are so detailed and restrictive that they are almost impossible to follow because it takes so much time and planning just to figure out what you are able to eat.

Not bad. I liked another person's review: "The title says it all".

According to him, once you reach your goal weight, you can start eating bread products again, but not sugar. He does, however, think sugar substitutes are fine, something I find not fine.

Pretty good so far...very easy to read.
Great simple concept but you really don't need the book. The title says it all....don't eat flour or sugar.
