Book Reviews of The Volumetrics Eating Plan CD
Book Review: The Volumetrics Eating Plan
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent book. Everyone should have this book!
Since I was never taught how to eat healthy and properly as a child, this has given me the tools so I can now eat healthy, feel full and not deprive myself of foods that I like that aren't the greatest for me.
I made my kids read the book too, since I never taught them how to eat properly either.
I like the pictures that compare the volume of foods and ask you.............which one would you rather eat..........the full plate with the proper seasonings or the small plate prepared the way that we are all used to!
Summary of The Volumetrics Eating Plan CD
Watch for flying pigs: here's a weight-loss plan that's sensible and simple. And for those of you who can only think of bacon when the word "pig" is mentioned, prepare to go hog wild: the Volumetrics plan is designed to let you indulge in your favorite goodies every now and then, so you're much more likely to stick to the program. Developed by a nutritionist who has worked with the National Institutes of Health, the Volumetrics plan focuses on foods that are low in "energy density." In other words, fruits, vegetables, and soups—all high in water content—are low in energy density, and therefore allowed in greater quantities. These foods tend to be more filling, so you eat less—and that's how easy weight loss can result. Author Barbara Rolls includes forms for charting one's daily food intake and weight-loss progress, as well as dozens of tempting recipes for the likes of Risotto Primavera and Chicken Fajita Pizza. After years of watching friends remove the buns from their hamburgers and banish croutons from their salads, it's nice to see common sense making a comeback. --Erica JorgensenNo more "forbidden foods" or monotonous meals—The Volumetrics Eating Plan will revolutionize the way you think about managing your weight.
Quit "dieting" for good. Feel full on fewer calories. Lose weight and keep it off while eating satisfying portions of delicious, nutritious foods.
The Volumetrics Eating Plan doesn't eliminate food groups or overload you with rules. It's a commonsense, scientifically sound approach to eating that shows you how to choose foods that control hunger while losing weight. Along with menu planners, charts, and sidebars on healthy food choices, the recipes put her revolutionary research into simple instructions for every meal. With this important new guide to healthy eating, you can enjoy tasty and satisfying meals that will help you maintain your weight or lose those extra pounds while learning the pleasures of cooking the Volumetrics way.
