I bought this book about 4 months ago at a time when I was looking to lose some weight and haven't looked back. It's a simple read that concentrates the principles behind The Harcombe Diet (a larger book which I've also since purchased). For me this has been the one diet book that has actually worked LONG TERM. I've tried all sorts of other diets and whilst some have been effective, none of them have really enabled me to maintain a constant level of weight after the initial weight loss.
The Harcombe diet has been great because you can still enjoy the good things in life - cheese, wine, fried breakfasts, steak etc. You just have to be careful about what you eat them with. It that sense it's more of a lifestyle change to the way you eat and it's one that has worked for me and my partner so far. Collectively we have lost over 2 stone and are continuing to lose weight whilst still eating large portions of fantastic food! We also feel so much better, having almost completely eradicated sugar from our daily diet (no more sugar lows at 11am for us!).
I love the fact that you don't have to watch how much you eat, as long as you're eating the right foods. This means no calories or points to count each day which is a breath of fresh air!
The only drawback I've found is that it can be hard finding foods to accommodate the diet when you're out at parties and functions. Having said this, I've found you can cheat on this diet and still maintain/lose weight as long as you keep it in moderation.
Overall this is a great read and actually a common sense take on dieting and a total departure from traditional calorie counting diets.
Enjoy!!

Having tried this foolproof way of eating healthily and losing weight and being proof that it works - I was happy to find a shorter, easy to read version which I gifted to a male colleague. Short, concise and down to earth - this book has convinced him and the results are showing after only 10 days.
Well done once again Zoe Harcombe. You know how to inspire. It all makes sense. No gimmicks, no fees, no special foods, and no hunger! Quality and quantity are the keys words here.

I love Zoe Harcombe. I always devour all the refreshing articles, interviews and commentary I come across. She's such an unrestrained thinker and is so thorough in her research that her unconventional views stand up robustly and unshakeable against the inevitable indignant guffaws of the low-fat mainstream views - a maintream which really does seem to have got it wrong. I was lucky enough to meet Zoe once, and her husband Andy, and I want to be like him!
There are several great things about this book. First, it works. Second, as others have commented, it is a very digestible format so people can just get on with it. Third, it's for any men, not just fat men. I combine her eating philosophy with lots of exercise and it works so well. I am not overweight and not looking to "diet", but I want to be healthy and eat in a way that makes sense long term. This is an easy ticket to adjusting the way you eat and concentrating on combinations of foods that have made me feel healthier, stronger, more energetic, less hungry - because Zoe seems to understand better than anybody how the human body really responds to what you put in it.
It's not crazy, it's grounded in science and effective and it's easy for all men to try out. Well done Zoe, you've taken your great ideas another step closer to getting the appreciation they deserve.
