I borrowed this book from the library because I find the Biggest Loser publishing machine quite fascinating (who is buying all of these books? Australia is just not that big) and I (for some reason) thought Tiffiny was a vegan, so I was interested in seeing a meat-free diet approach. It turns out that Tiffiny is in fact not a vegan (or at least her cookbooks aren't) and this cookbook is exactly the same as all of the other Biggest Loser cookbooks - high protein low fat small meals. The recipes were fine - some looked tasty and there were even two different pancake recipes in there (no maple syrup of course). However, the portions were ridiculously tiny. There was one meal that consisted of a marinated salmon steak and 50 grams of sauteed spinach. Tiffiny, if your prospective readers were satisfied with 150g of fish and some veggies then they wouldn't be reading this book in the first place.

I really like the prologue to this cookbook. Tiffiny has it down! Have a good relationship with food, eat, eat real food, drink water, and constantly move. So simple but most of us don't get it, me included;). The recipes are pretty and healthy. I'm not sure but I don't know if she is American. I didn't know what some ingredients were and had to look them up.
