I'm excited about trying this eating plan. It is super-simple to understand and I believe it will be easy to implement and stick to. It couldn't be more convenient and involves no counting of calories, carbs or fat grams. Lots of fruit and vegetables are included, and there are contingency plans for hunger pangs. It will also be MUCH less expensive than Medifast or "joining" a weight-loss system.

Rounded up from 3.5 stars.

Enjoyed the plan details, am currently trying it. I quickly got sick of the shakes and am planning my own meals to stay within the plan. But I can see it working, I have 30 lbs to lose and I think this is a safe, healthy way to do it.

Perhaps the front of the book should say something about the fact that this doctor only cares about people that need to lose at least 100 pounds so that those of us who don't need to lose that much don't waste our time.
