review 1: I love to cook healthy foods and to exercise, but I've never been one of those people to buy into fad diets/exercise programs pushed by celebrities. I do, however, read cookbooks of all kinds in search of good, healthy recipes to make for my family. I love Jillian Michaels' book because I don't feel like she's pushing any particular diet -- she simply breaks down different kinds of foods and the effects that they have on your body, touts the benefits of eating organic foods whenever possible, and preaches avoiding genetically engineered or highly processed foods. This is more a healthy lifestyle cookbook rather than a fad diet cookbook, even though there's a celebrity on the cover. And the recipes are absolutely delicious! Perhaps my biggest recommendation for this one: I ... moreusually check cookbooks out from the library and then copy down the few recipes I want to keep in my collection; this one, however, I'm actually going to go buy.
review 2: Excellent, excellent, excellent. The recipes in this book are absolutely delicious. Out of about 20 recipes made so far, there's only 1 that I probably won't make again. The one surprise was that there aren't any pictures of the food. Not even one. This was to cut back on costs which would have made the book much more expensive. Don't let that stop you from getting it, though. It's well worth the money and even includes some info on how different foods affect your health. I love the little blurbs sprinkled throughout on choosing, storing and cooking specific foods. My favorite chapter is "Snacks." This gave me some simple ideas for one of the main diet question marks in each day. less
