3.0 out of 5 stars Great diet but recipes too American, 28 Sep 2001

By A Customer

The Zone diet is a great diet. I bought this book and struggled to follow the recipes although the results were worth it. However, earlier this year another book was published called The Formula by Gene Daoust. This works on the principle of the Zone but the recipes are much simpler and easier to do - and absolutely delicious. I would recommend anyone from England planning to do this diet buys that book first it is brilliant.

5.0 out of 5 stars Carbo addicts need to try this diet, 4 Sep 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Zone: Revolutionary Life Plan to Put Your Body in Total Balance for Permanent Weight Loss (Hardcover)

As a person who loves pasta, bread, potatos and anything starchy, this book proves that those are the foods that are keeping my weight on. I started the Zone two weeks ago and have lost seven pounds. I have never felt better and have tons of energy. I am not a huge fan of vegetables, but I have found a couple of green things that are not horrible! This diet is a no brainer, plenty of good protein,such as fish, poultry etc. and lots of fruit and veggies. I think the critics need to lighten up, this is the healthiest I have ever eaten. I don't know how people can say it's a high protein, low carb diet, when everything is so balanced. It's the TYPE of carbo's that matter. Give it a try, you have nothing to lose, except maybe a few pounds!

5.0 out of 5 stars I wish I knew about this years ago!, 20 May 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Zone: Revolutionary Life Plan to Put Your Body in Total Balance for Permanent Weight Loss (Hardcover)

I have been working out for years and within the last year I have been running over 12 miles a week, weight training, taking boot camp classes at my gym as well as tai box classes three times a week. I thought I was eating healthy. But I could never lose any weight. I grow up eating bread with every meal. I originaly read Dr. Atkin's boot the New Diet Revolution. I found this boot to be to strigent for my liking. I was feeling tired and weak. I read the Zone and with in the last two weeks I lost five pounds, feel energize as well as I did not suffer from any PMS. I have told my mother about this book as well as a friend who suffers from MS. They both went out and bought the book and are begining the zone plan. This book makes it easy to follow. I was amazed it even suggested what type of fast food I could eat.
