 When 150 is not 150... June 1, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the first Abs Diet book that disappointed me. I am excited to have finally found a diet that is practical and healthy, and was looking forward to a cookbook filled with great ideas for new recipies. What this is, however, is a recap of the entire Abs Diet for the first half of the book, and then a few recipies with a whole lot of variations. Many recipies are virtually identical with only one or two ingredients changed. I found nothing new that wasn't in the original books. If you would never have thought to substitute raspberries for blueberries, then you might find this book helpful. But for those of us who love to cook, (thus leading to a need for the Abs Diet...) there is nothing really helpful or new.

One of the best book for Abs Diet I have ever read! Everyone should read this book!
I've lost thirty-two pounds on this diet March 20, 2008

These are simple recipes for simple meals. If you're following the diet, it is generally low on sugar and simple carbs, and higher on the protein than what most people probably eat, if left to their own devices. If you buy organic products as much as possible, it's a pretty healthy diet- vitamins and anti-oxidants from lots of vegetables, and protein from various sources. I've been on this diet for nine months and I've lost thirty-two pounds. My wife and daughter like the stry-fry entrees. It's the first time in my life I've ever been on a diet and it wasn't easy, but my blood pressure and cholesterol profile are excellent now. What's not to like?
 Valuable for Abs dieters, but not enough substance March 6, 2008

If you're following Zinczenko's diet, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend adding this recipe book to your arsernal. That being said, many of the recipes...well...they suck. There are some good ones, but not nearly as many as in the original Abs book. While following the Abs Diet, I did far more cooking out of the original book than this supplemental piece.
That being said, there are plenty of recipes for sandwiches (though a cold-cut isn't rocket science), smoothies, at least one decent soup recipe, but the main area it's lacking in is really good creations for the main course. If you're overweight, you likely crave the main course.
With easy, everyday recipes, dieting is delicious! February 25, 2008

Unlike other dieting guides, the recipes in this books are actually DELICIOUS and ones that I look forward to making every day! (I've tried low-fat or low-carb recipe books in the past and have had disastrous results--truly tasteless or inedible concoctions.) These recipes are easy to follow, quick to make, and don't involve hard-to-find/obscure ingredients from the health food store. In fact, I don't feel as though I'm on a "diet" in the least!
