Summary: First time I ever dieted. Lost 30 lbs in about 9 weeks.
Review: Well, I rolled my eyes when my wife came home with this book. Thyroids and adrenals .. right! I've spent the last 20 years packing on 30 excess lbs, so I was ready to try it. It really didn't take much will power. I was able to eat plenty of things I like and was already eating. Never went hungry, but had to get used to eating more regularly. I did have to cut out caffeine, sugars and starchs, and highly refined grains. More steak and eggs than I've had in years. The diet they recommend for you will depend on your particular body type and requirements. I was really amazed! The fat came off really fast, and I got my metabolism back. I dropped to about 5 lbs below my target college years weight and leveled off. Even cheating all through the holidays (can't offend the folks that made all those cheesecakes and pies), I've stayed within a 4 lb range, and it came back off in a few days. I'm really impressed with this plan. I'm copying this web page to hand out to all the people who keep asking what happened.

Summary: Dr. Abravanel's Body Type Diet and Lifetime Nutrition Plan
Review: What a Wonderful Food Plan! This book has literally changed my life. I found that I am a G-type. I've always been concerned about dieting and have done so all of my life. I've starved myself, yo-yoed up and down, joined Weight Watchers, and have just generally been concerned about my weight. In recent years, I have had a great deal of difficulty losing weight no matter what I've done. I never felt like I was eating very much and would eat half portions -- much less than anyone else did. When I began the food plan, I was concerned that I was eating too much but forced myself to eat the amount of food Dr. Abravanel suggested eating in his book for my body type. To my amazement I lost weight. The plan has been so easy to follow (even whe I go out to eat -- no fast food for me). Very little measuring, etc. Now I know what foods are best for me and finally, after all these years, I'm eating healthy, nutritious foods. I'm taking care of my body and have so much confidence in making my food choices now. I will never be overweight again! I've never been confident enough to say that before. I think the spacing of meals really helped me burn calories and eating MORE of the right kind of foods were the keys to my weight loss. This food plan guarantees me success in maintaining my weight loss. Thank you, Dr. Abravanel!
