Learn to control food cravings with this scientifically based program of weight loss and eating. The secret? A, B, C and D. That is, Amount (~400 calories), Balance (carbs, proteins and fats in a specific ratio), Clock (you MUST aim to eat every 4 hours) and Darnit, Get Your Lazy Butt on the Treadmill (self-explanatory). Plus, this book has some pretty good recipes that fit the bill.
Well, I'll admit, I was never hungry on this plan. But I didn't see miraculous weight loss either, and I always felt (and looked) "full." This is a great read--entertaining, packed with good information on the science of nutrition with clear explanations of how diets work, INCLUDING the pitfalls of the low-fat and no-carb diets--but I found it difficult to implement with my schedule. Worth a try, I still say, and a healthy solution for many who struggle to regulate their blood sugar and food cravings.
