This is an excellent cookbook for those wanting to maintain a low weight or even loose weight. All of the recipes that we have tried have been delicious. We used a couple of the recipes for our Christmas dinner guests! All went back for seconds claiming the food was excellent.
My husband and I have been trying to lose weight for a long time. We bought both the No Flour, No Sugar Diet book and the No Flour, No Sugar Cookbook. We have been able to lose around 10 pounds each in around 2 weeks. The first book is clear to understand because is written in clear English, no medical mumbo-jumbo.
The cookbook has inspired my husband to cook new recipes and I'm impressed, not only some of those recipes are true delicatessen, but also easy to prepare.
The cookbook also has inspired us to create our own recipes, such as oatmeal crepes, they are delicious!. My son who is not on a diet ate two the other day and he never realized they weren't made of flour.
The spaguetti squash is another discovery in that book. I'm a fan of spaghetti, and although the consistency of the spaghetti squash fibers is not exactly as real noodles, once we mix them with the sauce and meat, they just taste like some fancy special wheat spaguetti.
My husband also has made some peanut butter from scratch and mixes it with oatmeal and splenda and they are a treat we eat sometimes.
The only way to know how good this diet is, it is by starting. Now we are feeling ready to start to do some exercise. Before losing some weight was unthinkable for us.
