The Belly Fat Cure: No Dieting With The NEW Sugar/Carb Approved Foods (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
Very interesting and it works. This diet book does a good job explaining itself so that you understand WHY you should cut out the sugar and the Carb's. I like that it includes planned menus, and food counters. I don't like the seemingly arbitrary placement of dieter’s testimonials. It was distracting. I read the ebook version which I thought was well designed other than the testimonials. I also liked the recipes included right at the point where you encountered the item, and not at the end where you had to go and look it up. I'm a big fan of Jorge's 8 Minutes In The Morning which I lost weight on about 11 yrs ago. When I hit Menopause, my healthy eating/exercising program slowly stopped working and I put on an extra 17 lb, mostly around my middle. So I was really excited to hear about his Belly Fat Cure. I do think it is a great book, lots of interesting and useful info, especially about the amount of sugar I was putting into my body! And the info on alternative sweetners was very helpful also, I used sweet n' low for everything! The basic premise is no more than 15 grams of sugar and 6 carb servings per day. He gives you lots of recipes, menus, and healthier versions of the foods you love. I agree with others that it is very brand heavy, but you don't have to use those brands to follow this way of eating. However, if you regularly shop at the discount groceries like Aldi's you are not going to find many low sugar/low carb food choices, and that is key to make this work. You want the lowest sugar and the lowest carbs possible. I followed this plan for 4 months and lost less than 5 lbs but my clothes did feel looser. It constipated me something awful even with using the probiotics and metamucil, etc. The Belly Fat Cure did not work for me but I gave it a 4 star rating anyway because I learned a lot from reading it and have incorporated parts of it into my life.
