Book Review: Get Skinny Eating Cookies!
Summary: 4 Stars
There are three big reasons why Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet Book stands out from the diet book pack. For one, Dr. Siegal has been in the business of helping people to lose weight for 34 years, and he has an enormous success rate. His lifetime dedication to undoing obesity and his high credibility factor is enough to earn my respect and attention. Then there's the fact that the cookie diet is easy to understand and follow. You eat five or six 90-calorie cookies at regular intervals throughout the day plus one protein and veggie meal. It's as simple as that. Everyone can figure it out, and there's none of that dastardly food planning that most people hate. And lastly, the cookies are an effective tool for hunger prevention, which Dr. Siegal claims is the biggest weight loss problem to conquer. I actually sampled some of the cookies, and while it's not the same as eating a 5-inch chocolate chunk cookie from your favorite bakery, the cookies are fresh, they have a decent-enough taste, and they really do fill you up.
Dr. Siegal also gives readers refreshingly new information about weight loss. For example, he advocates taking off weight faster rather than slower. In fact, in his opinion, speed of weight loss is a critical success factor because when people don't get results right away, they're more likely to get demotivated and quit. Another useful tidbit is Dr. Siegal's insistance that weight loss and weight maintenance should be recognized as two different tasks and two different skills. It's the same idea as fixing a car when it's broken and then taking ongoing care of your car so it doesn't break again.
The chapters dedicated to weight loss history were not interesting to me, and I found myself skimming through them. Even though Dr. Siegal is a weight loss history buff, his passion didn't translate into the pages of the book. That said, Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet Book gives the reader a proven process and a companion set of products that make weight loss fast and easy. This could be a way to eat a half-dozen cookies a day and get skinny while you're at it.
Summary of Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet Book: How a Doctor and His Cookie Helped 500,000 People Lose Weight Fast
''Losing weight quickly is unwise.''''If you lose weight quickly, you're more likely to gain it back.''
'''Eating near bedtime creates more fat.''
''Diets of 1,000 calories or less are unsafe.''
''Nutritional nonsense!'' declares Dr. Sanford Siegal in Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet Book. He debunks these and other myths that he says are propagated by ivory tower researchers, nutritionists, and even some of his fellow physicians who have never helped an actual overweight person lose weight. Drawing on fifty years of experience exclusively treating overweight patients, Dr. Siegal presents anecdotal evidence gathered from more than 500,000 patients to support the concepts underlying his venerable Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet weight-loss approach and hunger-controlling cookie.
This book is must reading for anyone who follows the Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet weight-loss program or is considering doing so. Dr. Siegal, known to generations as the ''Cookie Doctor,'' provides real-world advice and practical tools that will help you set and reach your goal weight and, for the first time in the history of dieting, customize your diet in order to reach your goal weight by a specific date such as a reunion, vacation, or wedding.
