Summary: too large scale.
Review: All of the recipes make servings of 12 or more, this is great if a family is on this plan but, i'm just one person and the recipes cannot be broken down for my use. Would love a book of recipes for one or two.

Summary: I really tried to give this book a chance, but......
Review: Everything tastes very odd, and yes, I can cook, so It wasnt a question of loose nut between the book and the mixing bowl, ha ha. I agree with one of the other reviews, in that there are easier and tastier ways to prepare some of the dishes, BESIDES using pork rinds and guar gum over and over. I was very dissapointed and I am returning this book and the companion dessert book.

Summary: My Very Favorite Low Carb Cookbook!
Review: Hi- 2 weeks ago I bought "The New Eat Yourself Thin Cookbook Like I Did" and I love it so much I went back to Amazon to do a review. I can't believe someone actually gave it a bad review. I have a lot of low carb cookbooks and this is by far the "Best"! The recipes are easy to make and are real food my family likes. I have tried the Sweet and Sour Chicken and it's wonderful. I don't use Sugar Twin anymore now that Splenda is available and it measures the same. If you're looking for low carb recipes for average families, I recommend this one very much.

Summary: I love this cookbook!
Review: I purchased this cookbook because I was eating the same things over and over on my low carb diet. This got boring and I began to cheat. Once you start cheating it becomes easier to bend the rules more often and suddenly you are putting some weight back on.This cookbook got me back on track because it is full of great recipes for food we already eat. Stuffed peppers, meatloaf, meatballs, teriyaki chicken wings, soups, and pancakes (yes-pancakes!). You don't have to be an experienced cook to follow her recipes and she uses primarily "normal" ingredients that you can purchase at the grocery store. The few special items are used in very small quantities. I've tried several recipe books and this is by far my favorite.

Summary: Excellent Low Carb Cookbook!
Review: I'm so pleased with this low carb cookbook that I just had to write a review. I had purchased many cookbooks but unfortunately all of them had very high carb counts and when you need to stick to 20-30 carbs a day, you need recipes that are delicious and will work for you. This great cookbook has so many terrific recipes and ALL are under 10 carbs per serving, most around 5 grams of carbs per serving. Now this is what a true low carb cookbook should be. Also, I know the author has come out with a 2nd revised edition of this book and I'm going to order that one too! I don't need to go any further... treat yourself to a real low carb cookbook written by a Registered Nurse who has lost a lot of weight herself and lives the low carb lifestyle.
One more thing.... if you like sweet treats then you should order the best low carb desserts book I've found to date called Eat Yourself Thin With Fabulous Desserts!

Summary: Have access to a good health food store?
Review: The recipes sound delicious, but I was dissapointed in not being able to find the ingredients. I only have access to a small health food store and grocery stores. I was not able to find guar gum anywhere and many of Nancy's recipes call for it. This cookbook is better than Dr. Atkin's, in which many ingredients are impossible to find. I would still only recommend it if you have access to a very large well-stocked health food store or are willing to pay for shipping for ingredients ordered online.

Review: This book makes a Low-Carb lifestyle EASY! I have the Eat Yourself Thin with Fabulous Desserts recipe book, too - I highly recommend both!

Summary: What a life-saver!
Review: This book makes a nice addition to any collection of low carb recipes. The recipes are mostly fast and simple, using ingredients you already have in your kitchen or can easily get at any local grocery store. Each recipe is easily adaptable to personal taste, i.e. not wild about Sugar Twin or pork rinds? With a little research and know-how, you can substitute in your favorite sugar alternative sweetener for the Sugar Twin, and any low carb bake mix, or parmesan cheese, for the pork rinds.

Summary: I really tried to give this book a chance, but......
Review: This book should have been titled, "Eat Yourself Thin, by Eating Tons of Pork Rinds". So many recipes call for pork rinds--yuck!! I understand that the Atkins diet uses them a lot, but this book calls itself a "low carb cookbook", not an "exclusive Atkins cookbook". Very misleading. I won't use crushed up pig fat--not very healthy!!!!!
