Book Reviews of Crack the Fat-Loss Code: Outsmart Your Metabolism and Conquer the Diet Plateau

Book Review: Excellent Program
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this book on the word of several friends who have been heavy all their lives and lost copious amounts of weight on the program and have kept it off. I gained a great deal of weight after the age of forty and after being 132 pounds, size 6 for all my adult life. After discovering I had hypothyroid disease and getting that regulated, I began a quest to lose the weight I'd gained. I tried Jenny Craig and Nutrisystem, but hated the prepackaged food and sameness of the diet.

My one criticism is that the book is not easy to follow, so I took it one chapter at a time rather than trying to read the whole book at once. That works well. I follow it chapter by chapter as I progress through the weeks. I LOVE this program as it doesn't revolve arounnd the same eating pattern every day. And if I have a bad day or two, I simply carb down for four days and start week two again.

While there are not a diversity of recipes, I like most of the ones in the book (can't stand the egg cheeseburger, however) and have come up with several of my own.

Like most programs, it works if you work it.

Summary of Crack the Fat-Loss Code: Outsmart Your Metabolism and Conquer the Diet Plateau

The New York Times Bestseller!

LOSE UP TO 25 POUNDS IN 8 WEEKS AND KEEP IT OFF!

The human body evolved to resist starvation by holding on to fat. No wonder it's so difficult to lose weight! Now a revolutionary lifestyle plan finally cracks the code for efficient fat loss. Developed by leading nutrition specialist Wendy Chant, the plan is scientifically designed to help you "outsmart" your body's natural cycles for storing and burning calories.

Crack the Fat Loss Code teaches you how to boost your metabolism through "macro-patterning"--a simple routine of alternating carb-up, carb-down, and baseline days. There are even built-in cheat days, so you can enjoy the foods you love. Once you get your eating habits on schedule, you'll find that you can lose weight . . . for good.

In just eight short weeks, you'll be able to:

  • REPROGRAM YOUR BODY--to burn the fat and keep it off.
  • FEEL HEALTHY, NOT HUNGRY--with limitless food options.
  • CONQUER THAT DIET PLATEAU--once and for all.

"Crack the Fat-Loss Code brings you the most sensible solution to permanent weight management I have seen."
--Frederick C. Hatfield, Ph.D., bestselling author of Bodybuilding: A Scientific Approach, Hardcore Bodybuilding, and Ultimate Sports Nutrition
