Dieting with The Duchess : SECRETS AND SENSIBLE ADVICE FOR A GREAT BODY

Rating:
Summary: An independent, inspiring woman
Review: Duchess Sarah is an inspiring person. She has overcome emotional trauma many times in her life, and escaped gracefully from an unhappy marriage to an extremely domineering family of immature aristocrats. She has done enormous things for science, and the health of all women by promoting well-being, nutrition, exercise and disease prevention. A recent study out of Harvard Medical School says that the number ONE thing to do to prevent chronic illness is to control one's weight and not remain overweight. This ranked over even such vices as smoking and drinking. So please, let's give the Duchess what she deserves...a pat on the back and our admiration.

Summary: Did we read the same book?
Review: I have to think that some of the other reviewers did not actually read this book. It is very well done and has helpful advice and compassion for those who are struggling with their weight. Also, the recipes are very tasty. It might not be the quick fix that some are looking for, but it is healthy and it works!

Summary: Dieting With The Duchess - feeding friendly companion
Review: This is an elegant & pleasant companion for your kitchen. Sarah, the Duchess of York, has always been a favorite of mine - lively, loquacious & eager. This book is much more than a depressing diet book. It's about changing our ways; taking a kindly yet clear look at how we fuel up & what we do with the energy. It's about adding serenity & charm into our out-of-control eating habits. With beautiful illustrations & photos of fine feasts; delicious recipes; amusing & down-to-earth insights; fascinating stories from her life & hints on how to make over our unsatisfying eating habits, Sarah, Duchess of York, together with Weight Watchers offers a premium, full-color, journal-type book to grace our kitchens & our lives. The perfect gift! Very well done, I thoroughly enjoyed it.()

Summary: A Good Read
Review: While this book does not really offer anything new, what she says is true. Weight Watchers is one of the best ways to lose weight sensibly.
