Book Reviews of The Take-Control Diet
Book Review: On Track with The Take-Control Diet
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've tried every diet under the sun and don't know where else to turn for getting on track with your weight, I recommend Dr. Ian Smith's book. He takes a scientific and a practical approach to weight management.
In this book, you are given easy to use formulas to determine the exact caloric intake your body needs according to your frame, plus ideas on how to control your calorie intake throughout any given week to achieve weight loss.
Dr. Smith provides practical applications to a lifestyle, rather than a diet, that prevents dieters from having to refrain from favorite foods. For example, if you know you are going to a party where you will be eating cake and ice cream, he suggests that you subtract those calories from another day's caloric intake to make up the difference and still allow net weight loss for the week.
We've all been in and out of "The Zone", we've given up our carbs for Dr. Atkins, and we've gone to "South Beach" with temporary success, but if you want to truly stay on track with your weight management skills, I highly suggest you give Dr. Smith's book an opportunity to help you gain your weight loss sense back again.
