This book is great. It is easy to read and understand. Written very well.

She talks alot about eating oatmeal with bee pollen and flax every morning. The rest of the book is common knowlege that everyone knows and should do, it's just that you need to actually do it instead of just know it. That's the hard part to stick to is walking the walk.

I normally don't post reviews, but after reading some of the naysaying posts, I had to comment. Folks, this diet works. It works like magic, just like the fitness pros say it does. I have tried SO many diets in the quest for ultimate health-vegan, macrobiotic, raw food, and this. This approach is the only one that stabilizes my hormones and blood sugar so well while not making me lose muscle tissue and slowing down my metabolism. In fact, at 44, when combining this diet approach with weight lifting 3 times a week and cardio kick boxing 3 times a week, my pudgy, tired, nearly perimenopausal body is getting strong, lean, toned and finally I feel like I did in my 20's. A few weeks ago a woman asked me if I was my 14 year old daughter's SISTER! And she wasn't just being silly...she was aghast when my daughter cracked up and said, "NO! She's my mom!" She thought it was the funniest thing in the world. But I thanked that woman and told her she made my whole year! This is not a quick fix diet, its a lifestyle that really gives you back your life. It takes some planning, but it is SO worth it. Nothing else has made me feel this good.

Then read this book and follow the guidelines. I did and I lost ten pounds in 1 1/2 months and have kept it off. Don't expect a miracle and be prepared to make some sacrifices. I recommend getting the Eat Clean Diet Cookbook to help you out for meal ideas, and remember to use your leftovers, they are a lifesaver!
If you are seriously considering buying this I would keep in mind that eating out is no longer a good idea, you are going to have to prepare all of your meals and Tosca recommends 5-6 'meals' a day so there is alot to keep in mind there. However this book lays it all out for you with weekly chart plans and lots of good advice. If you are willing to do the work, this book is a great tool to help you reach your goals.

I ordered the Eat Clean Expanded Edition. Amazon sent the wrong book - (the original, not expanded edition) and agreed to send the correct version. Then, the they sent the wrong book again. I requested a refund which the gave, no shipping charged and a $15 credit for the hassle. I had to order from the publisher to get the right book.
