Book Reviews of Suzanne Somers' Get Skinny on Fabulous Food
Book Review: Not good for the long run!
Summary: 1 Stars
I am an American living abroad and like many other people I loved this book initially. I dropped all the pounds I wanted to in about 2 weeks, around 15 pounds. I loved feeling thin and felt justified arguing with my husband over whether or not this was a healthy plan. Things went great for almost 4 years. In the beginning I ate cereals for breakfast with no problem. Then as the years went on I found myself having to eat fewer and fewer pasts, toast, cereals and so forth, in order to maintain my weight. Even if eatten exactly as Somer's recommended (which I had done for 4 years very effectively) I began gaining weight. It would take over 4 weeks to lose one pound of a four pound weight gain from one meal of truely whole grain pasta with no other added fats of any sort. At first I thought I was not following the plan properly because it had worked so well in the past. So I was careful not to cheat in any way. My food was properly combined. Still I was gaining weight. Why? I really believe that my body became unable to process any carbos after following this plan for so many years. Healthy? This plan? I think not!!! I would not recommend it to anyone interested in long term health or weight control. It is a short term solution and a very dangerous one in the long run. I had all the negative symptoms of being obsessed with food, watching the time of when I could eat again, my hands would shake from hunger along with other physical problems and literally gorging on 3 eggs with 5 pieces of bacon and still not feeling full, and slowly gaining weight. This plan wants you to eat all proteins because it is the only way it works in the long run. When I read other reviews of this book all I want to say to them is give me your review in 5 years and I highly doubt it will be so positive. I would rather live with my 10 pounds than do this diet again. And I love having fruit with my yogurt and not watching the time of when I can eat again. It makes me sick to think that so many people are still falling victim to the quick promise of losing weight and eatting what you want. If I could I would put my face on an advertisment and shout to everyone, "don't do this diet!!!" If you want to lose weight fast (all muscle and important parts for your body) and eat beef jerky all day than by all means do this diet. But if you want a long term solution, eat a low fat diet with lots of fruits and veggies. It is much more healthy. Please, do not do this diet!! Your body deserves better!!

"I got skinny on fat," claims Suzanne Somers. It sounds too good to be true--a weight-loss program that lets you "eat incredible, rich foods in abundant portions while the unwanted pounds effortlessly melt away." Most nutritionists would cringe at the idea that people trying to lose weight don't need to restrict their dietary fat, but Suzanne Somers and her "Somercizers" insist it works. Fat (even saturated fat) isn't the enemy, she claims--it's "products loaded with sugar, white flour, hydrogenated oils, and chemicals and preservatives that replace real fats." Get Skinny on Fabulous Food follows Somers's Eat Great, Lose Weight with a recap of the Somersize program, which involves eliminating "funky foods" like sugar and starch and using a type of food combining. Also included are grateful letters from followers of the program, menu suggestions, and 150 new recipes. Recipes include such fat-filled dishes as Leslie's Mushroom Broccoli and Egg Cupcakes (with butter, oil, Swiss cheese, and nine large eggs), Beef Stroganoff (with butter, oil, and two cups of heavy cream), Ginger Creme Brûlée (with butter, heavy cream, nine large egg yolks, and even the enemy: sugar), Cappuccino Chocolate Chunk Cheesecake (with cream cheese, eggs, chocolate, sour cream, and--yup--sugar). No calorie counts or nutritional breakdowns are included. --Joan Price
