Healthy Eating for Life!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Food Doctor Everyday Diet (Paperback)
I was inspired by the "A-List Diet" programme on TV and decided to give Ian Marber's healthy eating plan a go. I only had a stone to lose, so didn't bother with the 7-day detox diet and went straight to his everyday plan with 10 principles. All the nutritional background is explained very clearly in this book and it makes perfect sense to me. I've been following this healthy eating plan for about 3 weeks now and have lost 2 kg (4 ½ pounds), which is great as I didn't even stick to his principles to the letter. I never felt as if I was on a diet and never was hungry. Most of the recipes look nice (while a few don't appeal to me) and so far I've only tried one which was quite good. I'm usually putting together my own meals with the right proportions (more or less) of protein, carbohydrates and fat, which is fairly easy once you're clued up on it with the help of this book. I really believe that I could continue this nutritional concept for life and will stay slim forever! But then again, only time will tell...

Well written, effective and enjoyable,
This review is from: The Food Doctor Everyday Diet (Paperback)
I have never been what you might term fat or overweight, and all I have ever wanted to do was lose half a stone. The problem was that I have lost that half stone many times only to find it returning when I came off my diets.....and so it went on. I tried Ian's first diet book in January 2004 and I lost the half stone ( and a little more ) over a few weeks and, here we are in February 2005, and it has never come back and I am not on a diet at all. The publicity is true - it really doesnt feel like the old fashioned 'diet' that I used to punish myself with.Its just a simple way of eating that I use every day, so much so that I dont even realise I do it. I bought The Everyday Diet as soon as it was out and it has new information that is presented and communicated with aplomb and humour. The writing is eay to follow so you know what to do, and also why you are doing it, which makes things much, much easier. These two books have helped me understand weight, metabolism and food like never before.

The Food Doctor Everyday Diet,
By Katrina (Preston, Lancs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Food Doctor Everyday Diet (Paperback)
This is not just a weight loss diet book it is for everyone, and forms the way you eat for life. Reading this book you benefit from the author's successful experience as a nutritionist with clients, answering frequent diet queries from nutrition to tips when eating out.For me the most invaluable part of the book and in my opionion one of the author's finest attributes as a writer, is the way he has explained the affects of the 'GI factor' and the 'role of insulin' in a clear and easy to understand way. By following the '10 Principles' I have no difficulty in maintaining my ideal weight. There's no calorie counting, the plan concentrates on maximum nutrition to bring stability to your metabolism in order to achieve natural weight loss. The 80/20 rule is realistic advice so I still enjoy favourite treats - just part of a balanced diet, and I don't have any sugar cravings! As it is explained in the book my blood sugar levels which are vitalily important to me are more stable than ever before. Eating is now a pleasure, trying out the many imaginative but simple and delicious snack and meal recipes. The author appreciates the need for easy to follow recipes that don't require hours of preparation to create a tasty correctly proportioned very enjoyable meal. The book is full of practical advice, it's well presented and easy to pick up and refer to.
