Food and Drink : The New High Protein Diet: How to Lose Fat the Quicker, Safer, Easier Way - And Never Go Hungry
I read the book but found some of the information contradictory and in some places lacked explanation and guidance. Yes it talks a lot about the workings of the human body and the reasons as to why reducing carbohydrate intake will mean weight loss but this is not a new concept. I work in a Medical School working along side some of the worlds most leading medical researchers, clinicians and health organisations and one main area of interest which our medical school investigates into is improved health whether this be in diet, exercise, work and region of living (the type of work you do and were you live has just as much impact on your health as diet and exercise do). I spoke to them about the book and they all more or less said the same thing, ... Read More:

I had previously used regularly the 'Food Glorious Food' book that Slimming World produce. I'd pretty much made all the recipes in that so fancied a new set of recipes.

This book is a great introduction to the Slimming World Plan however the book focusses a more on this than on recipes. Unlike my previous book this one has a collection of recipes more suited to entertaining as they involve quite expensive or more classy ingredients. The book has a lot of lovely photographs in of the meals which again leaves less space for recipes. Out of 224 pages only around 70 contain recipes.

There are some great menu planning ideas that cross reference the recipes and some interesting insights into how the Slimming world plan works - in fact ... Read More:

After having crippling pain and terrible constipation I really didnt know what to do. I went onto her Heathers website and she gave me tips on what to do immediately.. peppermint tea which worked so well and the other foods to take when you dont have no disire to eat anything as the uncomfortableness is so bad. The book arrived in two days and I feel so happy now the bloated ness has gone ... I had no idea about insoluble and soluble foods and thought I was eating a healthy diet... I was, but eating the wrong way. It's made an incredible difference to my whole attitide about food and my body .... thank you so much. Wish I had read the review before i bought the books as Healthy eating for Ibs and healthy cooking for Ibs are the same books ... different ... Read More:

This is the best fitness book I've tried! (and I own a considerable collection ;))
I first chose the weight-loss PHA program and it really worked!!!
I saw a big improvement on thighs, buttock and tummy!!! I also impressed my husbund with my abdominals (!!!)
I alternated days of jogging-walking-stepping with PHA days and I continued my low-carb, low-cal diet.
Though it is not a 20min. program as stated by Mr. Roberts, (it takes 35-45min. not counting warming-up), once I got familiar with it I ended up totally addicted.

I'm quite into raw food and generally trying to live a healthy life so I have enjoyed this book - it has given me some good ideas on how to incorporate more raw food into my diet. However...quite a few recipes are way different to the food I am used to! Raw ketchup was amazingly good and the spring roll style wraps are worth making but combinations of sprouts, seaweed and bombay mix found in other recipes are rather new tastes for me!

All in all worth getting, but as someone who is 'quite' interested in raw food I need more recipes that are closer to my taste. Maybe I'll try Kate's next book....

An almost too-catchy title, a Barbie-pink front cover and under-par photos do injustice to this otherwise good manual for resistance and weight training, targeted at women. I bought this book to build and maintain my own resistance training routine without going to the gym. I have earlier worked with good trainers who have taught me correct technique and the use of body weight, free weights, resistance bands and tubes and the Swiss ball. This book is a good companion for motivation and for remembering to do the right exercises in a balanced manner throughout the week.

The book is written accessibly. Judith Sherman-Wolin peppers it with stories from her clients and their experiences with exercise failure. She proposes an exercise success triad of virtue comprising knowledge, consistency ... Read More:

I initially took this book out of the library and was very pleasantly surprised after finding most other baby cook books a bit of a waste of time. I now find that it is the book I turn to most when out of ideas for meals for my baby. There are plenty of good recipes and it is well presented. And, while I don't worry about 'meal planning' or detailed nutrition to a great extent, the simple indicators of vitamin and mineral content were interesting (maybe something similar for salt content could be added). The only bugbear is the lack of an index for recipes - irritating.
