Product Description
Product Description
This is the "New York Times" - bestselling new weight-loss programme for frustrated dieters whose different metabolism -Metabolism B - prevents them from succeeding on traditional diets. Do you gain weight, despite your efforts to diet? Do the pounds accumulate around your tummy? Do you feel tired, irritable, and unable to focus? If so, you may be one of the millions who have Metabolism B, an inherited condition that causes the body to over-process 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. Having struggled with Metabolism B for years, registered dietician and weight-loss specialist Diane Kress knows first hand the frustration of diets that don't work. Calling upon the latest research, her own experience and that of her clients, she developed this scientifically-based plan which reveals the reason why cookie-cutter approaches to dieting (subtracting calories burned from calories consumed) cannot work for those with Metabolism B. America's hottest new diet, (it reached number 2 on Amazon.com), "The Metabolism Miracle" provides readers with the tools they'll need - including delicious recipes and sample menus - to lose weight and re-programme their metabolism permanently, improve their cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar, and regain their energy, focus and sense of wellbeing.

I got this book from the library 5 weeks ago and am now looking to buy it for future reference as I have been on this diet for 4 weeks and it is working! Yes it is aimed at the american market but the same principles apply to anyone who finds it difficult to lose weight because of insulin resistance. I have lost 10 pounds now and I am expecting to continue this for the rest of my life. The first 3 days I was very tired and irritable but after that I have felt much better and the most fantastic thing about this diet is that my sugar cravings have miraculously disappeared! This makes it much easier to stick to the quite stringent first eight weeks, after that you start adding in more carbs, in a controlled way, until you reach your goal weight then you are on a maintenance regime for the rest of your life. It gives you tips on what to eat if you eat out and what to do about eating on holidays etc. Just give it a try, I feel like I have been liberated from the ties of food cravings at last and I am in control of my appetite. I have made the muffin recipe in the book and just bought myself a cup measure and ingredients from the supermarket, anything I couldn't get from there I went to my local healthfood shop and got the rest. I now have a choclate muffin every afternoon at work - they are delicious. You do need to up your exercise as well, so I go to the gym 3 times a week and do a bit more dog-walking. This diet is the answer to my prayers!

I bought this book after reading an article on it in the Daily Mail. I have tried dieting before but never with any clear road of where I was heading, and the idea of a diet for me was simply meaning to cut down on portion sizes etc., but it's always been difficult and I've ended up reverting back to the same old ways of eating as I had done before.
In the Christmas period of 2008 I quit smoking and over 2009 I put on some extra weight which was most probably due to me getting my appetite back and started eating whenever I felt like it and it was beginning to get, in my eyes, quite ridiculous, so when it came to the end of Christmas 2009 I decided that, as I had managed to quit smoking for a year, I could put my efforts into losing weight.
The Metabolism miracle is directed at an American market, but if your interested in losing weight, and I mean really interested (Not just look at the book and think "Oh it's American I can't be Bothered with this I'll just instantly give up"), then this is the book for you.
The first week or so was difficult, having to completely change my diet and to buy & try new things, some which I liked, some which I didn't, but it's been an adventure so far, and with 30 minutes of Wii Fit 5 times a week, i've managed to lose 2 stone in 8 weeks, and will be moving on to Step 2 of the programme very soon.
Overall i would say it's Working and I'm Happy with it!

Yes the book is aimed at the American market, but the problems it discusses are the same in the USA as here in the UK .Some of the diet ingredients are not available here under the same name but if you follow the rules in the book you will loose weight and feel great .It does look a little like the Atkins diet for the first 8 weeks and that's because Atkins was based on sound science and research but was only intended as a rapid weight loss program and did not have a follow on .This diet does however and shows you how not to put the weight back on again!
It also helps you to control the Insulin resistance which is pre cursor to Type 2 Diabetes of which excess weight is a strong contributor. The whole thing about loosing weight is about the correct attitude and understanding of what is going on inside your body .This book goes a long way to give you the understanding to make the correct choice .
