Book Reviews of The Skinny: How to Fit into Your Little Black Dress Forever
Book Review: Some great tips!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I have read a lot of diet and nutrition books, so it's important to me to find something that gives new ideas or perspectives. The main thing I took away from this was learning to appreciate and enjoy every bite. The authors really push the idea of eating what satisfies you and stopping when you're full. I often ate healthy meals on autopilot, because they were healthy, but I didn't love them and I'd still be hungry later...but by eating what I want (healthy versions), I am always satisfied at the end of the meal and not hungry. They say something to the effect of, you'll be surprised how less food can be filling if it's what you WANT, and it's true. Also, I tried some of the recipes and I like them a lot. The authors suggest trying new foods, because you enjoy tastes you haven't had in a while and therefore eat less, and I've also found this tip to be true.
I'd say this is a good book for people who have dieted before and know a lot about it, but are a little bored or need to kick it up a notch. It's good for beginners, but because they don't encourage counting calories, someone who doesn't know calorie counts could easily go overboard because so many things that seem healthy are not.
