Summary: Why do these reviews sound like infomercial testimonials?
Review: Cliff Sheats takes the mystery out of the "diet." Take this opportunity to learn about what most people don't: That fat burning starts ONLY with the proper diet. Cliff lays it out in black and white. You'll be sure to look at the way you eat from a whole new perspective. Thanks Cliff!

Summary: This is a good program
Review: In reading reviews of this plan, I have to say I was disappointed in how rigid some people are. The diet works and is much easier if you use your imagination. Until I tried Cliff Sheats' program, I couldn't go a day without something sweet, and I couldn't stay on a diet for more than one or two meals. I'm on day 6 now and haven't had a sweet craving yet, and I've lost 3 pounds. I feel pretty good and by eating something every 2-4 hours I don't feel deprived. As for no foods being available without having to be cooked, I disagree. I have followed the guidelines, but modified the suggested meals to the foods I enjoy, just keeping in mind a good balance of protein, fat and carbs. If I go over by a few percentage points in one area or another on a given day, it's not a big deal. I do spend more time in the kitchen, but it's only because I'm not ordering from restaurant carry-out. The program is working for me.

Summary: More than just a pep talk
Review: Lean Bodies is one of the best "diet" books that I have read. It is no nonsense and to the point. The author basically has the following message: If you want to lose weight and lose it fast, eat only lean protein, complex carbs and vegies. No sugar, no fat, no white flour. You don't get "cheat days". You either eat right and lose weight, or you don't. The choice is yours, but the information in the book is so complete that you WANT to follow the 7 week plan simply because it makes sense. This book is absent of pep talks, which I personally found refreshing. It is full of information on how you body processes different food to effectively burn fat. He is not pushing pricy GMC products (unlike his Body For Life cohort) and does not have any cheesy before and after pictures of people who have finished the program. I found this book appealing because it spoke to my intelligence. I want to eat this way because I understand how the food will work for me. Ultimately, my eating habits will change for good thanks to these logical explanations.

Summary: I felt GREAT, and lost weight eating a lot of food!!!
Review: Lean Bodies made losing weight more comprehendable for me. The author, Cliff Sheats, was able to explain WHY certain foods, sugars, simple cabohydrates, etc., were making it almost impossible for me to lose fat. I kept losing, then gaining, and losing and gaining... the typical roller coaster. I had never really had a problem with weight before the the birth of my son, and did not have a CLUE as to what was good, and what wasn't. A year and a half later, I had to do SOMETHING!! Everyone had different advice for me, but nothing was consistant, therefore, nothing worked! After only a couple of weeks on the Lean Bodies program, I could actually SEE the weight coming off! At the peak of my weight loss, I was losing approximately 1/2 lb A DAY! And I had so much energy, I couldn't believe it! In 4 months time, I had lost a total of 25 lbs, and had reached my goal. And I didn't even follow the diet exactly to the "T". Maybe if I had, I would have lost more weight faster, but I was able to go at my own pace. I recommend this "way of life" to everyone I meet.
