Product Description
Do you keep gaining weight, despite your efforts to diet? Do the pounds accumulate around your tummy? Do you feel tired, irritable, and unable to focus? If you answered “yes” to any of the above, you may be one of the millions who have Metabolism B, an inherited condition that causes your body to overprocess carbohydrate foods into excess body fat. There is a reason that some people can eat all they want (and seemingly never gain a pound), while the rest of us fret over every carb. Diane Kress, a registered dietitian and weight-loss specialist, has helped thousands with Metabolism B lose weight—and keep it off—with her revolutionary, scientifically based program. Now she shares its secrets here. Among the many life-changing elements of The Metabolism Miracle, you will discover:
• The reason why cookie-cutter approaches to dieting (subtracting calories burned from calories consumed) cannot work for those with Metabolism B
• The tools to lose weight and reprogram your metabolism permanently
• A foolproof method to improve your cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar
• The return of your energy, focus, and sense of well-being
• Sample menus to help you take it one day at a time
• Delicious recipes (including vegan) tailored to match each step
• An active lifestyle plan to maintain your newfound body weight.
As someone who struggled with Metabolism B for years, Diane Kress knows firsthand the frustration of diets that don’t work. Based on the latest research, her own experience, and the experiences of her clients, she has developed this groundbreaking plan to help you take back your life—starting today. |

Great but not for the lazy dieter! November 21, 2009
Denise Playford (Tucson, AZ)
I bought this book and was very impressed with the information it gave me regarding how different metabolism types lose weight. It was very informative and seemed liked it was geared directly towards me! I have been very successful on this diet, where others have failed me. I lost 10 pounds and 7" in the first 8 days! The only down side is that there are very strict timelines pertaining to when you can consume carbs. If you do not have the flexibility to follow those timelines, this is not the diet for you. It definitely works though!
It works if you work it. November 16, 2009

I read about this book in a magazine at the checkout area of the grocery store. I related to the caracteristics of having metabolism B. I was eatting candy constantly. Putting on weight in my mid-section. I felt out of control. The book explains the problem. It gives a couple of pages of breakfast, lunch, dinner ideas for each phase of the diet. You are only allowed 5 grms of carbs every 5 hrs. in the first 8 weeks. It sounds restrictive, but it is not bad after a while. You get used to it. It is a low carb way of eatting. No bread except low carb. No potatoes. It uses Splenda as an alternate sweetener. After the first 8 weeks more carbs are allowed at certain times. I'm not craving carbs anymore. I'm calmer. I've lost 7 lbs. in 2 weeks. There are recipes in the back of the book. If your serious about losing wieght and getting your blood sugar straighted out and want to feel better, I recomend this book.

 I understand the basis if the book. It might work IF November 6, 2009

I am a medical professional with multiple allergies. I understand the basis of the book. It might work IF you actually can eat most of the foods you CAN have. Otherwise, it will fail. For starters,I am ALLERGIC to Splenda. Many of the recipes use Splenda. Count that out. Ditto with many of the other foods. I tried to follow the diet as best I could for 2 weeks. I would get so hungry to the point that I felt faint. Face it, you can only eat so much meat, broccoli, cauliflower. Oh, lets throw on some eggs, nuts, benedryl, and an epi-pen. I agree that it is just another low carb diet.

Fantastic book. I reference it many times throughout the day. The Author states that after 3 days of this eating plan, you will feel better. This proved to be true, and now it is Day 9 for me, and I have increased energy, and decreased bloating and indigestion. For anyone suffering problems with food, digestion and weight, give this book a serious look. I am quite surprised at the improvements I am experiencing.
