I find myself could read any diet book anymore, flipping through it ok. This is actually a good book, worth reading if you really don't know how fat, sugar and hormones work on your body. It also has plenty fun illustrations. However, if you know, and if all you want is solutions, like me, you can jump to "you tips" part at the end of each chapter. And I got some useful tips (they even recommend nicotine and caffeine).
The only thing that doesn't work with the book is the recipes they provide and the dining out guides. Either the two authors have really bad taste of food, or they just dare not to admit the truth: you really need to kiss goodbye to all the yummies to get a flat tummy.
