Book Reviews of Suzanne Somers' Fast and Easy: Lose Weight the Somersize Way with Quick, Delicious Meals for the Entire Family!
Book Review: Good But....
Summary: 4 Stars
The recipes are good, simply written and presented although probably best for someone who knows their way around the kitchen. Ms. Somers' first cookbook/diet book came about right before the height of low carb fanatacism. Her first book seemed to offer an intelligent (although perhaps not scientifically based) alternative to loading up on meat,eggs and cream. In her first book, she was much less focused on low-carb and more on eating balanced whole foods, meat, eggs, and cheese only being PART of a balanced diet. As each book came along, she seemed to get closer to Atkins and further away from her first book which was sort of a precursor to the South Beach Diet. That being said, for whatever reasons, Ms. Somers' diet works for me. I don't eat meat every day and rarely have a jug of heavy cream in the fridge, but I do, when following her diet, lose weight. As with all, one must follow it within reason. Your body does need the right kind of carbs as her first book clearly states. Beans, whole grains, fruits and fat-free dairy products can and should be a part of most everyone's diet. Unfortunately, as the low carb craze went along, Ms. Somers' seemed to give in to the temptation to join the bandwagon instead of on focusing on what really makes her diet a much healthier alternative to Aktins. Recipes for rich meat dishes began to outweigh the number of recipes she gave for healthy whole grains and vegetables. And what started out as a wonderful simple cookbook turned into the opportunity to market her processed packaged foods and synthetic sweeteners (And no, there is NOTHING natural or original about her sweetener...it's sweetened with a chemical and has been around for over twenty years in one form or another) rather than to encourage Americans to get back into the kitchen where true health begins. And maybe she realized that many people were getting off of her diet because they couldn't cook with her skill and her products were simply a natural extension of her diet...That being said, this still remains a proper diet only if the dieter is willing to get into the kitchen, embrace whole foods, and eat, like Ms. Somers' states in her first book, HEALTHY fats, fruits, vegetables and whole grain carbohydrates! Whether or not you do that in the combinations she suggests, your body is likely to benefit. So although I long for the honest straightforward nature of her original book (with zero product plugs), I do appreciate that Ms. Somers' got me on the track to thinking about food in a healthy manner and gave me the opportunity to "diet" without even looking like I'm dieting. As a lover of food and cooking, this diet works for me, just buy her first book before the others.
Summary of Suzanne Somers' Fast and Easy: Lose Weight the Somersize Way with Quick, Delicious Meals for the Entire Family!
Somersize the fast and easy way and lose weight by eating delicious, home-cooked meals that are perfect for the entire family!For more than ten years, Suzanne Somers has been preaching, “Fat is your friend and sugar is the greatest enemy!” Her Somersize program lets you shed pounds by eating rich, flavorful foods like meat, cheese, cream, butter, and eggs. Medical professionals are now saying what Suzanne and millions of Somersizers already know—the best way to fight the growing obesity epidemic in this country is a diet higher in proteins and real fats, and lower in sugar and carbohydrates.
More than 3 million readers have lost weight the Somersize way after reading Suzanne’s New York Times bestsellers Eat Great, Lose Weight; Get Skinny on Fabulous Food; and Eat, Cheat, and Melt the Fat Away. Now, in her new book, Fast and Easy, Suzanne makes Somersizing simple, affordable, and fun for the whole family. Whether you are too busy to cook or worried about feeding your family a healthy meal on a budget, Somersizing is the solution. In Fast and Easy Suzanne teaches you what foods your body converts to sugar and why you need to eliminate them. She outlines her weight-loss program for life, where you’ll forget how to count calories, fat grams, or carbohydrates and simply enjoy delicious foods with no weighing, no measuring, no portion control, and no deprivation. Here you’ll find more reasons to Somersize, including:
* How Suzanne’s balanced weight-loss plan is just what the doctor ordered
* How to heal your metabolism from years of yo-yo dieting
* How to convert your body to a fat-burning machine
* How obesity is a growing family problem and how Somersizing can stop it
* How to make meals in minutes, and Somersize products that make it even faster and easier to stay on the program
* How SomerSweet allows you to say good-bye to sugar without saying good-bye to sweets
* Moving, motivating testimonials from enthusiastic Somersizers
* Answers to more than 300 of the most frequently asked questions about this remarkably effective and sinfully delicious program
And, of course, Suzanne treats you to more than 100 new fast and easy recipes that will delight everyone in the family, including Turkey Taco Wraps, Somersize Double Double Cheeseburgers with Fast and Easy Onion Rings, In a Hurry Beef Curry, Cherry Chocolate Trifle, and Boston Cream Pie Cake, plus hometown favorites like Somersize Shake It and Bake It Chicken, Somersize Macaroni and Cheese, Baby-Back Barbecue Ribs, and much, much more.
