Summary: THIS BOOK CAN MAKE YOU TRIM, TRY IT
Review: I have had to fight the battle for the bulge for many years. After buying many books about dieting i think i have finally found the one i have been looking for all my life. I had often wondered about how foods worked in the body. I hated to look a skinny people eating those candy bars and never gaining any weight. I wondered what their secret to beein skinny was. I think i have the answer now, and would like to share it with you.The amount of insulin that our body produces to process food deterimines if we are fat. You see, the more fatty foods and carb foods we eat, the more insulin is required to process these foods. The insulin is used to help the cells store fat. Without a lot of insulin the cells do not store fat. The trick to being skinny then must be to eat foods that don't store. This book has a chart of all foods and the amount of sugar in each food. If we follow this chart then we will be able to choose the right foods. To sum up this book, i think it can make a huge difference in your body weight. Please buy this book if you want a trim and lean body.

Summary: Don't Believe the Hype
Review: In a word: Terrible. As a professional test chef, I try the recipes of many books for our tv network. In my years of experience, I have never tested a work of propaganda like this one. The recipes are ponderous and even worse, inaccurate. Measurements are unbalanced and cooking times simply incorrect. Also, never having received my M.D., I can barely understand the recipes. Finally, unless you have a professional kitchen, some of these recipes are insurmountable. Stay away from this highly suspect collection of "recipes." If this was the last cookbook on earth, I would eat PB&J.

Summary: Go right to the Fourteen-Day Meal Plan and Recipes!
Review: Just a quick look at the meal plan (p146) and recipies (p165) told me this is a great book. Food that fills you up, tastes good and stays with you! IMHO The rest of the books enhances these two chapters. Finally a "don't go around hungry" good tasting diet!" Happy Eating!

Summary: SUGAR FREE FOR LIFE
Review: It will be a year now that I have been on SB. I have lost over 30lbs and dropped 6 sizes. I have taken up running and feel great. Low fat diets just don't work! My sugar cravings are gone and no more migranes. If you just can't seem to lose weight and keep it off, read SB. It's not a high protein diet. It's a healthy diet that allows you to eat fruits, veggies, meats and whole grains. Try it for 2 weeks and see if you don't lose weight and feel better.

Summary: Boring, boring.
Review: Ninety percent of this tape drones on and on about the evils of suger. Only the last 15 minutes tells you what you can and cannot eat to succeed on this diet. I would have appreciated more information on how to live in the world without suger and all the foods I love most on this planet.

Summary: Excellent eating plan
Review: I wanted to lose ten pounds in time for summer. I have been following the sugar busters plan for two weeks and I have lost 8! I'm never hungry. I don't consider it a diet because diets are frustrating. This takes no will power. I love it.

Summary: Endometriosis and Sugar Buster
Review: I was refered to sugar busters by a doctor as part of my treatment for Endometrios wile on Danocrin. I have been "sugar free" now for 5 weeks and I feel fantastic, my energy level has increased and so far I have lost 10lbs. I find the program easy to follow, and I don't have cravings for sugar. Its amazing just how much sugar we eat and don't know until you read the book and start to read lables.

Summary: Quick and Easy
Review: This diet is excellent. After two weeks, my husband and I have lost 7 pounds. We're eating better than we ever did, but it does take effort and will power. This is the first time after three years of failed attempts that we are both losing weight. I was addicted to Coca Cola since I was a kid and after two weeks of not drinking it, I thought I'd try a sip, and I couldn't drink it because it was too SWEET! A diet is a change of eating style not a temporary fad to lose weight quick because the weight will come right back. We are adopting the Sugarbusters diet as our lifestyle.

Summary: Sugar Busters
Review: I had no idea of how to eat and lose weight anymore. I am 32 and when I was in my early 20's, I could just cut back a little on my eating and I could lose weight. That no longer was working. I would eat well for week or two with little sucess, get frustrated, and give up. I decided after getting on the scale a week or so after Thanksgiving and getting really disgusted with myself that it was time to get serious and do something to change my appearance. I read the book which I found to be easy to understand and all the guidelines made sense to me. I found that some of the foods I was eating were maybe not bad, but the timing of eating them was. And, of course, some foods I needed to eliminate completely. Like my can of Coke with lunch everyday. Now it is a bottle of water instead. I feel this plan is easy and if you are strong enough to stick with the plan, you will loose weight. Through modified eating and exercise, I have lost 23 lbs since Dec 1 and feel great. Clothes that have been stuck up on a shelf in the closet now fit again, which in itself gives you motivation to continue. I recommend this book to anyone who is not sure how, when or what to eat, to help them lose some excess lbs.

Summary: Leon Chang is Very Wrong
Review: Leon Chang has obviously not read the book, or he wouldn't be making such uninformed comments about it. The book actually ADVOCATES the use of complex carbohydrates as vital for healthy nutrition. It encourages the optimal use of whole wheat, whole grains, and many other whole foods. To use Mr. Chang's "strikingly smart" comparison, even a corpse would have realized it if it had actually read the book. Thousands have been helped by this new approach to nutrition and achieved real results. Thanks: A person whose life was changed by Sugar Busters
