Book Reviews of Diet for Dancers: A Complete Guide to Nutrition and Weight Control

Book Review: LOVE this book... a must-have for serious dancers!
Summary: 5 Stars

This book provides useful, real information on how to lose or maintain weight for dancers, and various strategies to use in any diet. The authors mainly focus on the American Diabetic Exchange program, which, it turns out, it a great way to keep track of what you're eating, and they also provide the optimum number of each type of exchange for many different calorie intakes. Overall, this book is great. No complaints, except if they could make a more updated version (the back has frozen meals and their exchange values, and some companies don't exist anymore, so updating that type of info would be very helpful) that would be amazing!
