Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic!
This is a great diet and a great book.
I've been on it for 5 weeks and have lost a stone.
Follow the recipes and don't cheat and so will you.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - excellent book for vegetarians
I have had this book on my shelves for a couple of years now and unfortunately didnt look at it being more into the low fat way of eating. Ive been vegetarian for approx 20 years and have been putting on weight since a cholecystectomy 12 years ago. The key thing for this diet is that this book has enabled me to diet without feeling hungry - cravings are at a minimum. Weight loss wise the first couple of weeks I lost nearly a stone and loss has been around 2-3 lbs since then. While it requires some form of dedication from the dieter, the author has adapted low carb foods for the vegetarian/vegan diet amazingly well and with great creativity. This has helped me no end. I especially like the rice alternative and when you are needing a sweet ... Read More:



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Would not recommend this approach
I am vegetarian and I eat healthily. After following the guidelines of this low carb diet for a couple of weeks I did loose weight but felt that my diet was far from healthy ! Being advised to avoid foods like oranges while being able to eat almost unlimited amounts of eggs and processed vegie food seemed wrong and unnatural to me.

*I did loose weight but I gained most of it when I tried to re-introduce carbs ie fruit and vegetables
*I felt light-headed for most of the time
*I am sure that the calorific value of the meals was so low that I would have lost weight on that level anyway - low carb or not.
*any diet that requires you to take supplements cannot be healthy
*the only real way to being a healthy weight ... Read More:



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - GREAT BOOK! But Non-Vegitarians be aware...
This is a fantastic book! If you are searching for a successful way to lose weight - this is definitely a method that I recommend! After years of checking food labels of calories and fat intake - I never really lost any weight without starving myself (which I knew was a BIG mistake!) However, after buying this book I noticed that by eating, my weight seeemed to be disappearing. I have a few minor things to mention though...

1) If you are NOT vegitarian (like me) then do NOT strictly attempt the vegitarian diet as you lack meat as well as carbs which you are use to. I thought vegetables were healthier and I love vergitarian food so I thought it wouldn't be a problem... but unforuntaly it was. I fainted on the tube, and friends also in ... Read More:



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I lost two stone!
Having struggled with ever-increasing weight for several years it was suggested that my problem was carbs - my body seemed to have forgotten how to deal with them normally so they were being stored as fat - eg "Syndrome X". I was sceptical but thought I'd give the diet a try - and chose this book for guidance as I trust Rose Elliot - we had her book "Simply Delicious" way back in the 1970s! Anyway - the results were spectacular - I lost half a stone in about 10 days, and 2 stone in three months. I am not a very imaginative cook, so tend to make the same things over and over, and I am vegan by preference so not everything is possible without dairy, but there are stacks of good ideas. The low carb burgers are fab - and really easy - the jelly is a lifesaver ... Read More:
