Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

"I got skinny on fat", claims Suzanne Somers. It sounds too good to be true--a weight-loss programme that lets you "eat incredible, rich foods in abundant portions while the unwanted pounds effortlessly melt away." Most nutritionists would cringe at the idea that people trying to lose weight don't need to restrict their dietary fat but Suzanne Somers and her "Somercizers" insist it works. Fat (even saturated fat) isn't the enemy, she claims--its "products loaded with sugar, white flour, hydrogenatedoils and chemicals and preservatives that replace real fats." Get Skinny on Fabulous Food follows Somers' Eat Great, Lose Weight with a recap of the Somersize programme, which involves eliminating "funky foods" like sugar and starch and using a type of food combining. Also included are grateful letters from followers of the programme, menu suggestions and 150 new recipes. Recipes include such fat-filled dishes as Leslie's Mushroom Broccoli and Egg Cupcakes (with butter, oil, Swiss cheese and nine large eggs), Beef Stroganoff (with butter, oil and two cups of heavy cream), Ginger Creme Brülée (with butter, heavy cream, nine large egg yolks and even the enemy: sugar), Cappuccino Chocolate Chunk Cheesecake (with cream cheese, eggs, chocolate, sour cream and--yup--sugar). No calorie counts or nutritional breakdowns are included. --Joan Price


Review

Some amazing Somersize success stories!
"Over the years I have been exposed to many diets for my patients, most of which eventually failed. As I grew older, I joined my overweight patients by becoming 23 pounds overweight myself. In March 1997 I started the Somersize program and in three months I lost 23 pounds and reached my goal. Since having such great success personally I have placed many patients and friends on the Somersize program. I am thoroughly convinced it is the way to go."
--Stanley Dressler, M.D.
"The more obsessed I was about finding the right diet, the larger I became--I blossomed to 407 pounds. My self-esteem diminished to the point of wondering how I could end the vicious cycle. Suzanne, little did I know the key I had prayed for was right in front of me--I wish for others to grab ahold of your words. Now 174 pounds, I have a happier heart, mind, and, most of all, body."
--Lynn Thorpe
"My husband and I slowly kept gaining weight, and before we realized, I had ballooned up to 190 pounds and Kevin was weighing in at 275. We had twin boys (3 years old) and at the time I had absolutely no energy to keep up with them. Now, 15 months later, I am 70 pounds lighter and Kevin has lost 80 pounds. This is a way of life for us now."
--Taylor and Kevin Kibodeaux
"You and your Somersizing system have made a new woman of me! I have lost 34 pounds by just eating according to your book. During menopause I started putting on weight, which was a new thing for me as I was pretty thin when I was young. My blood pressure rose until I had to be on medication, but has improved so much that I feel like a different person."
--Joan Garton

5.0 out of 5 stars Wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't tried it myself, 11 Jul 2001
By A Customer
Over the last year I've been researching alternatives to the low-fat/high-carb diet that was no longer working for me. I picked this book up about 10 months ago but thought it sounded complicated and a bit silly, frankly (and to the English ear a bit, well, American). But it put me onto Diana Schwarzbein's "The Schwarzbein Principle" which won me over immediately and totally put me off high-carb for ever; but after 7 months on Schwarzbein I had only lost about 20lbs and seemed stuck, and I wasn't really enjoying my food. About a month ago I picked this book up again and this time it made perfect sense to me, and I understood why she sets out the rules she does - so I gave it a try and I've lost 12lbs since then! The food is so much more enjoyable than on a lower carb diet and I feel great. And the recipes really are fabulous.

Have faith - if you really want to lose weight you will do it on this programme, and you really won't feel deprived. Brilliant.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic way of eating and on-line support, 8 Jan 2001
By A Customer
I just had to post here to say that this book is fantastic. It's an easy to follow way of eating with no calorie counting or portion control. Based on scientific research (Suzanne herself went through 9 years of medical school) it's principals are sound. There is now an official Suzanne Somers website which offers a discussion forum for those in need of support or with questions and free e-mail (hence my email address!). ...

5.0 out of 5 stars THE most common sense way to getting your body back!, 4 Aug 1999
By A Customer
After having tried EVERY diet known to mankind, I was creeping up the scale to a point of despair. The fear of having to carry around these extra 70 lbs. for the rest of my life was SO depressing...I didn't want to go anywhere or do anything. My husband has gained also and needs to lose about 50lbs. I'm an RN and knew about nutrition, but couldn't pull it together. Then I learned of Eat Great...Lose Weight and knew this HAD to be the key! This new book, "Get Skinny On Fabulous Food" is just the "cream" of her "Eat Great, Lose Weight". After following the plan to the letter (it was SO simple!) I've lost 10lbs in 9 days! My husband, too, has lost 10lbs! We have NEVER eaten so well...such healthy food. Those who say that her recipes are expensive are not taking into account that they are not wasting their money on junky "funky foods" any longer...PLUS the cost is minimal considering the health and self esteem benefits! All 4 food groups and weight loss never tasted so good! My husband has not had ONE digestive incident since this program! I KNOW this will be a way of life for us for the rest of our lives! We are so excited about getting back to our once lean bodies and look forward to doing all the things we enjoyed doing before gaining so much weight. We'll NEVER be out of control again! THANKS, Suzanne!
