review 1: The diet itself is not as drastic as I had previously assumed, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the author included vegetarian options, though he was quick to stress the results will not be as fast as a true protein diet would offer. A relative has seen moderate weight loss using the techniques within the book, but I found myself unable to give above 2 stars for the book itself as it was rather poorly written. The author relies on repetition, a causal writing style, and a profound lack of data & external studies cited to back medical claims. The end result is a fast, informal read, not the sort of holy nutritional grail I'd feel confident devoting the next six months of my life following.

review 2: Started the diet over 2 months ago and have lost about 15 lbs as of today--the diet itself works.However, I dislike that he suggests fake sugars or sugar substitutes, as these have been known to raise insulin levels, thus aiding your body into thinking that it has to store fat.If he would cut out fake sugars completely, I would say it's the perfect diet.This is the first book on dieting I have read that tells you how to eat for the rest of your life when you are done with the diet, which is where most people fail and gain weight again: because they eat the way they used to. The book shows you how to bypass that and (hopefully) keep a yo-yo weight away when you are done with the diet. I've recommended this book to colleagues and friends who are struggling with diets, but also suggest that they not use fake sugars. less
