Not the best book for those experienced in dieting August 28, 2008
This book was just okay. I've dieted many times before and would say I know a fair deal about the differences in saturated fats, monounsaturated fats, trans fats, etc. The first half of this book just gives very, very basic dieting information--eat breakfast, keep it lower on the calories, explains the different types of fats, why monounsaturated fats [what the book calls MUFA's] are good for you, etc. The basic concepts of the diet are that you eat every four hours, eat 400 calories per meal, and have a MUFA at every meal. The only part of the book I found particularly helpful was that they gave you specific recipes that included the MUFA's, a short list of specific meals at fast food restaurants to eat, and a list of MUFA's to choose from. The problem I had with their recipes, though, is even though they say they chose items that were popular and easy to find, I had a rather difficult time finding the exact items listed, so I ended up buying things close enough to it. They don't really explain in detail how MUFA's are actually going to make the belly fat melt away, and I have suspicions that it may help you lose belly fat simply because you are eating at least every 4 hours and eating only 400 calories per meal. I haven't been on the diet long enough to see any difference, so only time will tell. If you're a bit of a novice to dieting, then this book would be good for you, but if you're a bit more familiar with how the body works on diets, then you're better off just borrowing this book from the library.
