5 out of 5 stars I did this - you can too!!!   January 2, 2009
I have been following this plan since July 2008. I have lost 37lbs to date. This program works and is DO-ABLE! I have gone off and on it very successfully. I lost about 8lbs in July, then went off it the entire month of August (several vacations, etc). Started it again in September - November. Off again a few weeks around the holidays. Total of 37lbs so far. With the cheat day and high-carb days it is really easy to stick to. The first 2 weeks are rough -but after that, it is great! Highly recommend it. When you read it, you can see the logical sense in how it works.


5 out of 5 stars Shazaaam!!!   December 20, 2008
I have tried many diets before. This isn't a diet, it's a way of eating. (Wendy Chant's words)br /There is so much to say about this WOE that is good. I am losing weight, and best of all, my energy is seriously improved.br /The other factor that I really like is that just by following the guidelines, I'm (almost unconsciously) training my body to crave a different kind of eating. br /My Sugar Monster altar-ego is suddenly tamed.br /It's a good and healthy method, folks. I hope that if you're teetering on the fence, but tired by all the plans you've tried, you'll give it a shot.br /CONS: There are a few minor details which aren't answered completely, but there is excellent help available online. Oh, yeah, and the first week is like bootcamp for your body...it's hard because it's so different. But the PRO side of the first week is that it really works to start defining your body's wants.


3 out of 5 stars Hard to follow   December 17, 2008
Unless you are willing to devote all of your eating to a strict schedule this book will be hard to follow. I think it would be helpful if there was a website that went with the book that you could print daily menus from. It is low carb then no carb then high carb. For me it was too much to keep track of.


5 out of 5 stars Crack the Fat-Loss Code, by Wendy Chant   December 12, 2008
This is a sound and sensible approach to weight-loss. The first week is not easy, but if you stick to it, you will be rewarded. Because of circumstances beyond my control, I could not finish the 8 weeks, but will start over after the Holidays.

Wendy Chants has created a "Bible" that explains the physiological reason we are all struggling with our weight in a logical manner that we can all identify with. The plan is simple and very do-able. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a weight issue!
