Synopsis
Addictive TV + Excellent Advice = The Diet Sensation of the Year. In the primetime Channel 4 television series You Are What You Eat, Dr Gillian McKeith works closely with eight ordinary people - dubbed Britain's Worst Eaters - to give them a diet makeover. As they get on the path to health their bodies and their lives turn around in amazing ways. In the book, Dr Gillian brings together the advice and the real-life stories to create a diet makeover for all. There are 10 steps to follow, including Get To Know Your Own Body, Top 10 Bummers and Dr Gillian's Top 20 Crisis Tips, plus a 14-day start-up plan, which will literally transform the way we approach our diet and health. The results are incredible and anyone can do it. At a time when the western world is waking up to the nightmare of obesity problems, Dr Gillian is the voice of inspiration - she's on a mission of tough love and her approach, very simply, works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic no nonsense approach to healthy eating, 29 Jul 2004
I, like many other women in their early 30's, have tried every conceivable diet known to man, including Weightwatcher (those bloody points!), Slimming World, Cabbage Soup (yuk), Grapefruit, F Plan, Atkins (Do not try this one - you breath smells like Satan's bottom) etc etc etc. And after nearly 18 years of dieting (I started young), I weighed in at unhealthy 14 stone 2 lbs - perfect height/weight ratio for a 6 ft strapping man (which I wasn't last time I checked). I must have gained and lost the same 2-3 stone at least 6 times. However, I caught You Are What You Eat on channel 4 one evening, and thought I'd give it a go. I filled the fridge with veggies and fuit, made my own homemade soup to snack on and dived into seed, nuts & beans with great gusto. And you know what ? It WORKS...It REALLY does. After the detox weekend, which Dr Gillian recommends to start, I lost 6 lbs in the first week ! Then another 3 lbs in week 2, another 3 lbs in week 3, and a further 2.5lbs this week. Thats over a stone (just in case your sums aint up to much) in 4 weeks. And I dont feel hungry...hurray ! I love you Dr Gillian.!!..(sorry for the gushing-Im not getting a back hander honest). The best result however isnt the weight loss - I feel incredible. No more bloating, dodgy stomach aches, spots ( yep clear skin too ), excess wind (ahem), more enegry - I now wake up before the alarm. I heartily recommend this book and what it stands for - Im living proof it works. For the first time I dont feel like I am dieting, yet feel better and Im losing weight.(unfortunately it hasn't taken 15 years off my looks, but hey, its only been 4 weeks - I live in hope ).

1.0 out of 5 stars A Sad Disappointment, 19 Oct 2004
By A Customer
Sadly, a typical spin-off from a successful TV series. While much of the nutritional information was useful, the book was let down by shoddy editing, proofreading and indexing. Why weren't the recipes checked by a cookery editor? Instructions were confused, vital steps missed out, and measurements given in cups (not the norm in books for the UK market.)Many of the more esoteric ingredients are likely to be unobtainable outside major cities - spare a thought for those of us who live in far-flung rural areas, please. References between pages were often mis-numbered, and page numbers given in the index didn't match the actual pages. I suspect the book was produced in too much of a hurry. No doubt sales will be enormous, but many customers will be infuriated by slapdash errors!

4.0 out of 5 stars good solid advice - pratical and realistic, 8 Jul 2004
Having tried a number of nutritional plans (I refuse to call them 'diets' since the word has me defeated at the outset!) I was/am desperate to find proper advice that didn't include lengthy meal planning or weird supplements with unprounceable names. Permanately tired, mildly depressed and fed up with being ill with one thing or another, I bought this book with hope and more than a little cynicism. I'm glad I did.

It is NOT an answer to every health/weight/wellbeing problem, but it IS a really good practical advice kit on getting the right kind of food into your body. Two weeks on and the caffiene withdrawal has vanished and I actually have some energy to get on with things I've put off for months.

Downside is that there are only a handful of recipe
