 Enough Already November 16, 2008

Bought this book after hearing both good and bad about it. The technical info on food additives is good but that's about it. I don't need to read the fword and more in every other sentence or a whole chapter on the practices of our slaughterhouses. It's bad. We know it's bad and the point to become vegetarian is valid but not a whole, descriptive chapters worth of blood and gore. We're adults, we get it after the first paragraph. The whole book is one shocking statement after the other and YET ends with the authors admitting they also cheat and not to get mad at them if they're seen cheating. Come on. Walk the walk or shut up.
Time to stop pretending your still in H.S., ladies... November 15, 2008

This book is ridiculous. The quote on page 140 states it all "We set out to write this book for a few reasons" ...one of which was they "couldn't bear to have 'real' jobs." Seriously? Time to wake up ladies. Not all of us are impressed that you're former models. We want a little more substance. If I wanted someone to curse at me every other word, I could just go back to high school. Keep it out of a book about nutrition. I hoped to find some new recipes or ideas...but no. Just a list of their snobby stores and items they're promoting. If you want a good, healthy informative book get Body for Life. This one is the pits.

If anyone can take a diet book that pushes colonics as being an important part of being healthy, need to really start doing some research.
 This book changed my life. November 12, 2008

I read this book a few months ago and since making some of the changes, I can honestly say I feel better than ever. I must admit that I went to the bookstore to purchase a vegetarian cookbook, because I had already pretty much decided to give up meat. I did not know that when I picked this book up, it had anything to do about becoming vegan. I was laughing out loud when I began reading this book, the authors are hilarious (I am not offended by profanity) and their advice is pretty common sense. the only area I was not convinced about was their recommendations of fasting. I will not be trying that anytime soon. This book has led me to think more about what I put into and onto my body, and let me say, I don't think my body has ever felt this good. I am forever grateful to the authors for coming out with this easy to read book that sparks your interest into things that many would rather not think about. Think about it!
Thanks again to the authors!!!

I read this book in 1 night. The majority of the book is advocating becoming a vegan, but it was definitely a wake up call. Nothing in this book was something that I haven't heard before regarding cruelty to animals and unsafe chemicals in foods - these ladies go into great detail though - which people (and I) need as a good kick in the head. Their ideas and theories only make sense when you think about them - especially when tied into other evidence and stories from the unhealthy or those with major illnesses, who change their lifestyle and eating habits only to be cured of an otherwise incurable and even fatal disease.
I think everyone should read this book, but if you are looking for quick-fix tips and tricks to getting thin without any effort or without changing your lifestyle, this book isn't for you.
