Summary: Lean For Life
Review: Lean For Life has the best strategies for weight loss. I lost 60 pounds the first time I tried the book and I know a number of people who also had great results. The book introduces a wonderful diet and food table but it also has helpful commentary and success stories on every page. At first some of the chapters seem silly, but when you are doing the program the 'silly' stuff was so helpful in keeping me motivated! The weight loss program introduced makes sense because it does not promise false 'you can eat your favorite junk food' kind of hope. Instead the book offers a sensible diet with phases that make sense. If you want to lose weight you have to diet and this diet introduces steps to doing that. I could go on about this diet and book forever but if you are reading this and thinking of starting a diet this is by far the most sensible diet with the benifit of working as long as you follow the diet properly!

Summary: Lean for Life
Review: This is in response to all of those who say that most people gain weight back on this diet plan. The truth is, people gain weight back on any type of diet, IF they return to their old eating habits or give into their cravings once they lose the weight. This diet does work, but it's something you have to stick to FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, just like any other weightloss plan. The Lean for Life plan is a low carb diet, but it is different than Atkins in that it stresses low-fat types of high protein foods ~ and it allows for fruits, vegetables, and grains. It emphasis psychological efforts in dieting along with the usual eating and exercising information. It's easy to follow, and the weight loss is pretty rapid (which is very motivating). However, if you only follow the weight loss phase, and not the maintenance phase, the weight will come back on. This diet may not be for everyone, but as with any weight loss plan, you have to find what works for you, and make it a lifetime habit.
