My opinion
If you keep up with your carb intake not only will you lose weight you'll also change your eating style. Counting carbs is much better than calories you stay full longer eat more and crave less.

Very informative
I give this book a very high rating. You don't have to be a diabetic to gain this very valuable information. I believe I will find myself refreshing this very valuable information. Being a diabetic has made me more understanding of how to handle my diabetes. Thank you so very much for all this valuable information.

Wasted too much space
Wasted too much space listing liquors. Much of information is too basic.
Most useful part is carb lists of basic foods.

I don't like being forced to do this
It seems ok but I have not had a chance to really use it. I think forcing reviews is not helpful to anyone

I was very disappointed by this book. It's very little charts and a lot of chat.

Basic but very helpful
It gets right to the facts without clouding the reading with overly technical reading. Loved to lists to pull food that works for me. Great place to start.

Most everything you wanted to know on how to lower your carbs (sugar intake). Charts, a daily diet plan& references throughout the book. It also includes if you drink alcohol, & if your computer savvy even websites. Very helpful if you’re a diabetic or hopefully how to prevent you from becoming 1.
Cool book cover, font & writing style. A very well written reference book. Easy to read/follow, never a dull moment. No grammar errors, repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. It was very informative & helpful. Very easy for me to give the book 5 stars.
Thank you for the free book
