review 1: After reading it, this was a five star book. A nice overview of the theory supporting a ketogenic diet. The book has enough science to support the theory and is written in a way to make the science and theory easy to understand. It's also very motivating. I read the book and decided that this was the solution for me. I felt better since I removed refined starches from my diet several years ago, so it made sense that taking another step to reduce carbs would make me feel even better. It took me a week or two to get the blood testing stuff, fat, and veggies. I was dedicated to eating fat, protein, and carbs only from non-starchy vegetables. I was prepared for feeling like garbage for 3 days. After 3 WEEKS of ketosis, I still felt like garbage. I was sleeping for 10... more-12 hours a night and barely able to stay awake at work. I did little on weekends except prepare food for the upcoming week. I definitely didn't have the energy to do anything physical. I reread the section about what to do if things aren't quite working out and made sure I wasn't doing those things. At the 30-day mark, I gave up. And, for those of you who care about such things, zero pounds lost. Maybe the problem was that the research and theory doesn't apply to women over 40. Regardless, the diet did not work for me.
review 2: The best description of this book is "approachable". It's very informative, engaging and well-thought out. I have been following a similar, primal lifestyle for awhile now and have progressively tweaked it throughout the past two years. I learned some new things about ketosis and enjoyed the thoughts by various experts that were sprinkled throughout the book. I'm going to try some of the recipes in the back! less
