Summary: Best diet book ever written
Review: I bought this book for the "diet", but it's a BIBLE. I learned how to exercise in 12 minutes. I learned the most powerful meditation technique I've ever down and I learned health information that no doctor has ever told me about.I lost 65 pounds with the diet and the delicious recipes. I recommend this book to anyone who wants a healthy lifestyle not just a diet.

Summary: An Excellent Book on the principles of Natural Health
Review: I have read this book and any others on the subject of Natural Health and Food Combining. I was very impressed by the way the book is put together, and was surprised to read some of the negative comments by the other reviewers on this page. Especially the person who says that Marilyn has done an 'amazing flipflop' - let me ask you - did you read the book or just the contents page? She says that she PREFERS it if you eat a vegetarian diet - the meat there is mainly for those who are in transition mode. There are many people who have been eating 'the wrong way' for decades and can't just make the change 'overnight'. Marilyn talks about non-meat sources of protein and recommends that you use those instead - but you can use meat if you want. Personally, I will use as many non-meat protein sources as possible - why can't you do the same instead of just selectively reading the book and then making criticisms? My advice to anyone out there contemplating buying this book: DO IT! It will CHANGE YOUR LIFE. After following the Fit for Life principles, I have found the weight drop off and my energy has increased amazingly! I am now applying the Fitonics for Life principles and I am very excited by the results. Do yourself a favour - buy this book, apply the principles - and see for YOURSELF the difference it makes! No one is asking you to believe it - just TRY IT for yourself - and you will convince yourself! The results speak for themselves! As they say in Fitonics for Life... Namaste!

Summary: Marilyn Does it again!
Review: I'm a fan of Marilyn Diamond. I recently saw her in Los Angeles and she looks fabulous. Interestingly, I saw Atkins a few months ago, and noticed that he was about 100 pounds overweight. Fitonics makes sense and best of all my husband likes it too!

Summary: Fitonics for cash?
Review: Let me start by stating that this book is a dietary disaster! As a person who has been very active in studying and learning about nutrition, the diet, and especially the recipies do not seem to follow any of the recomendations I have read. Any authorities in nutrition, Dr. Gary Null, Dr. Dean Ornish (all though he denies he's a "diet doctor") and yes, Harvey Diamond would not recomend fatty dairy products or philly steak. Having read the Diamonds previous book, and knowing a little about their history, Ms. Diamond's (notice she did keep the name) is exeedingly disappointing. She seems more concerned about making money off another person's success. Let us be completely honest, she has primarily written glamorized cook books that are added to the back of her ex-husbands book. Having read Harvey Diamond's latest book, I must commend him on not (directly or implied) insulting the very principles on which his ex-wife bases her life. This is in stark contrast to her subtle yet vicious attacks on the very foundation of the way of life that Harvey Diamond stands for and have made her quite rich. She has repackaged herself with a new, younger, doctor including a look perfected by Nieman-Marcus, and is pedelling easy answers, dairy products, turkey and philly steak. From reading the other reviews it is clear that many feel the same way. Also, from the number of used copies for sale, it is obvious that this book is a flop from any real perspective. It is clear that she and her new beau are still are quite comfortable from the initial sales of her fitonics book. However, it has come at the cost of her reputation. A prediciton: if she tries to come out with another book, it will do very poorly as her credibility is severely comprimised. I do not need permission to get off the fit for life diet, if I choose to, I will. No rationalization needed. Perhaps those that see her book as a "new" direction and "progress" should re-read fit for life. Harvey Diamond never states that one must be strict to be successful. In truth, at many points he states that fit for life is a direction: reduce animal products, food combining is recomended, reduce alcohol, don't get down if you fall off the way of eating, just start again. You can't mess that "diet" up because it's not a diet. It is a way of life and recomendations on improving the quality of life. If you are happy eating steak, dairy products, etc. do it, just don't expect the health and quality of life provided by the fit for life way of eating.

Summary: Super Book! I lost 30 pounds in one month!
Review: This book has it all! Fit for Life was a wonderful book, but too rigid for me. With Fitonics, I have an easy exercise program, positive mind and lots of energy. It's great! I lost 30 pounds in one month! Way to Go Marilyn!
