Book Reviews of The Biggest Loser Simple Swaps: 100 Easy Changes to Start Living a Healthier Lifestyle
Book Review: Not my type of help!
Summary: 2 Stars
I love to watch the show!!! It is so inspiring watching those individuals overcome their personal issues. So many times I have been moved to tears with their stories. With that said, I will move on to my review of this book.
I first saw this book on one of the daily talk shows. I immediately went to my computer and Amazon. While I was looking at this book, I saw "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought: Eat This Not That!" I placed both items in my cart and purchased them both.
As inspiring as the TV show is, the book falls flat! I was actually expecting more of a "food choice swap" rather than an action type of swap. Example: Don't eat in bed at night. Instead do needlepoint. Or, make a phone call instead of a snack. I do know that it is those very choices that gets us into trouble in the first place, but I think that we already know that we just need to eat right and exercise! But what is "right???" I was hoping to find information like that pictured on the front cover: instead of a muffin, eat an English muffin. Or, instead of a glass of orange juice, eat an orange! But that is not what I found inside this book.
I DID however, find that exact information in the second book that I bought: "Eat This Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide." Talk about your ultimate food swap book!! <---- Now THAT's what I'm talking about!
I am on my way to do my Curves workout where I will offer to sell my copy of "The Biggest Loser Simple Swaps: 100 Easy Changes to Start Living a Healthier Lifestyle."
While I am sure that some people will find this book to be exactly what they need to inspire them to make better life choices for themselves, this was not the book to do that for me. If what you are looking for is something to tell you that you should not eat so much and that you should find other things to do with your time, then this is the book for you!

Summary of The Biggest Loser Simple Swaps: 100 Easy Changes to Start Living a Healthier Lifestyle
The road to a healthier lifestyle starts with small decisions and better choices. Now, with The Biggest Loser Simple Swaps, you can get healthy by simply swapping your old food, habit, and lifestyle choices for healthier versions every day. With 100 simple swaps that cut calories, save money, and provide better nutrition as well as more than 30 mouthwatering recipes that put these swaps into action, getting fit and healthy has never been easier. Learn how to:
- Swap lasagna noodles for veggies. Pasta used to be a guilty pleasure for many Biggest Losers?until they learned to make a healthy version. Try replacing lasagna noodles in your favorite recipe with slices of grilled zucchini or eggplant. Better yet, try the Veggie Lasagna recipe in Chapter 4!
- Swap traditional yogurt for Greek-style yogurt. Greek-style fat-free yogurt contains the same number of calories as regular fat-free yogurt but has twice the protein and half the carbs. It?s a great base for dips, too. Try using it in the French Onion Dip in Chapter 5!
- Swap sugary cereals for whole grains. The slow release of energy from complex carbs will help you feel full and keep your blood sugar steady and your energy revved. Or turn to Chapter 5 to make your own Hi-Pro Vanilla Breakfast Grains!
