Review: This diet works IF you are a true "carb addict" - Being a carb addict essentially means that you are an insulin "over secreter". When carbs are regularly eaten, theoretically, too much insulin is secreted for the carb load presented and overstorage occurs and you become fat even though you seem to really not be eating "alot" of food. If you are not a carb addict, you do not oversecret insulin...you appropriately secret insulin for the caloric load you consumed. Therefore, if you're eat a lot of food...you get fat-period. I am a carb addict and a medical doctor and I lost 35 lbs on this diet over the span of about 3 month. This diet is easy to follow but difficult to sustain because the types of foods one can eat for the non reward meals are limited for those of us who don't like tofu etc. However, after I reached my target weight, I introducted healthy high fiber carbs (low glycemic load) back into my diet and maintained the loss. I essentially began to exercise and switched to Body-For-Life as one needs carbs if you exercise and the 6 small meals per day work best for carb addicts (instead of 3 big ones) IF you are including carbs in your meals...and this is MY opinion. To those getting headaches or binging on this diet, clearly, this is the wrong diet plan. You are NOT oversecreting insulin or you have psychiatric issues. Weight-watchers is an excellent diet for those who secret appropriate levels of insulin with +carb meals. Furthermore, do not confuse low-carb with high fat. You need to be smarter than that. There are no real miracles here. This diet is useful and has helped many, many people rethink how and what they are eating. For those who fit the profile, this diet will help you lose weight and is VERY simple to follow. Here's to good health!
Review: Great book but.... - This is one of my top favorite books. Basically you have Atkins, this book and Protein Power. All versions of the same thing. Personally, I liked this book best of all as far as how they wrote it. It was very readable, and they explained things in understandable terms. They do explain the idea of hyperinsulinemia very well. Even though they are both doctors they both had weight problems and speak from experience. They do not gloss over the why's of low carbing but they also don't tell it to you in textbook terminology so that you really do understand it. I will admit that I don't like the idea of a Reward Meal. I am a true carb addict and for me , personally, I don't feel I could handle even one donut. According to this book you don't have to banish the bad carbs such as donuts, cookies etc. forever much the way you will on atkins and others. However as a true food addict I know my trigger foods. If you are truly addicted to certain foods then even one bite of a donut is too much. I might be just too afraid to find out but for me the risk is not worth it. So I don't follow the reward meal. I still liked the book a lot and it is highly recommended if you are going to low carb.

Being a carb addict essentially means that you are an insulin "over secreter".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This May Finally be the Answer
*by K***N on January 7, 2010*

The first thing I liked about this book was the fact that it takes ones individuality into account when considering weight loss. In other words, so often we see certain items that claim "one size fits all" and unfortunately, this is seldom the case. Our age, genetics, stress levels, environment and medications have a great deal to do with our ability or inability to lose weight. Many have tried endlessly; myself included to lose weight, only to gain it back slowly over time. We are left with feelings of guilt and sometimes self-loathing because we are once again faced with failure. This books helped me to realize that perhaps this outcome is not entirely the fault of our own. Self-esteem is truly important, and this book helps to put "diets" in perspective and offers healthy life changes that will hopefully be long-lasting.
