Love the diet plan, but the recipes are really hit or miss.

Not too many good recipes

A lot of common sense, but in order to do the rotating diet it would take a lot of time/planning that people who work full-time don't necessarily have. I will try to implement some of her advice.

Great recipes I highly recommend this diet that isn't really a diet because the meals are so good. We have been eating this way for about three months and besides the weight loss we just feel better.A very easy way to get healthy.

Some great recipes. Especially the crockpot chicken curry.

Good concept of cycling carbs & fats to maximize weight loss, but the recipes were not the greatest. I found better, more practical ideas on Pinterest.

I got this book from the library because I was getting tired of eating the same recipes from the author's previous book "The Fast Metabolism Diet". While there were some recipes in this book that I tried and liked, I found that most of the recipes were more complicated and less appetizing than the ones in the previous book. She uses a lot of ingredients in this book that I don't have on hand and are a bit expensive to buy. So I don't see myself making a lot of these recipes.

Still I like the program and while I didn't follow it for the full four weeks and I cheated a little bit here and there, I still lost 10 pounds and I felt better! I was not hungry and it took care of my sugar cravings. So I recommend the diet definitely.

I didn't do this diet, because I'm worried about the consequences to my body. The idea of going 4 days a week without any fats doesn't sound pleasant or safe, certainly not for me. Our constitutions are uniquely different, and mine tends toward the dry side. I have dry hair, skin, and I tend towards constipation. I need my fats, more than most people. Plus, you don't even use the fats for cooking. Using broth to sauté veggies is one thing, but I don't want pancakes cooked in broth.

This cookbook is a nice companion to the diet book and is pretty much essential for most. If you're like me, it may all seem confusing when you look at the diet layout and go "what kind of meal would allow me to eat a grain, protein, veggie, and fruit? But I can't just eat whatever?" Some of the recipes are simple enough that most people could figure out, but it is still extremely useful. I use this one just as religiously as the diet guideline book.

I love so many things about this book - the writer's warmth, her generosity in sharing with readers her years of experience as a nutritionist and diet coach - most of all, I love that this is a diet where you get to eat! In fact, Haylie's acronym for DIET is "Did I Eat Today?" What is not to love? She offers great recipes, a meal plan for those who want one, and lots of encouragement.

Bless you, Haylie, for sharing your wisdom and knowledge with us!

I did try some of the recipes and they were good. I got through stages 1 and 2, but never got to stage 3. I keep having to start over, as my DH cooks for the weekend, and enough for left overs, and he does not cook in the cookbook's style. I did feel better after following the recipes when I did use them. I will keep working on getting to stage (phase) 3. It does take planning, but I am trying to use it as a way of eating, not just a diet. Eating smaller more often is a good way for me to keep m I did try some of the recipes and they were good.

This is more about healing than dieting. It's 3 phases in a week; phase 1 (2 days) unwind stress, phase 2 (2 days) unlock fat, phase 3 (3 days) unleash your metabolism. The phases are done in order, using food as your medicine, only eating the food that is approved for that phase. " The more you eat, the more you loose." This is more about healing than dieting.

Just started the 28 day diet to reset metabolism- let you know how much weight loss . So full from first day of grains and fruit. It is taking a lot of planning and prep but it's only for 28 days. Have thee book and confusing to look at everything - apparently a lot of good recipes on pin interest - will look for next week as week one sorted Just started the 28 day diet to reset metabolism- let you know how much weight loss .

Good book with great information. However, the restrictions and very specific foods for each day are difficult to practice in real life. There's no room for leftovers or quick meals when each day's meal plan differs drastically from the day before. Good book with great information.

good to try I think the basic concept is easy to understand. The author’s receipts look like very delicious. I’d like to try the 28 Days diet. Hope it will work.
Leslie Conner –
Good diet, it works if we stay to the structure and utilize the phone app for tracking. Great to have the additional reccommended recipes for this program.

Wish this book had more vegetarian / vegan options

Recepies were helpful when trying to find what to eat during the diet.

Good for her, not for me.

Let's be honest. I'm not the one following these recipes. Ed is. He finds most of them easy to follow and I find most of them very tasty. Since the diet has three different phases, the cookbook is conveniently separated into sections by those phases so Ed knows which recipes to choose on what days. I simply eat what's prepared! Yum!

I won one of her other books, which made me want to read this one. She gives you a lot of things to make it easy as a master food list, Sample meal maps, blank meal maps, also a quick guide to Vegetarian, Vegan, and Slow Cooker recipes. There are some color pages of the recipes, not that many but better than none. Also the recipes are easy.
Correen –
Pomroy claims to have an easy diet but her cookbook would make one believe otherwise. The recipes seem essential for understanding how to progress but also seem to complicate what could be an easier process.
Deyanne –
I support and believe the concepts. Now it is time to put it to the test. We shall see how that turns out. One week so far and I am starting as a believing disciple. Plenty of food and I feel good. Love the application that supports the book.
Jeanie L. Backus –
Great companion to FMD. Highly recommended. Finally I can enjoy this diet now that I know what meals I can make. Very clever and inventive there are also a few desserts that you can make too.

Borrowed this book from a friend and will be buying my own. This is a great companion piece to the diet book. Lots of yummy recipes that don't make you feel like you are dieting. Can't wait to try more of them. Borrowed this book from a friend and will be buying my own. This is a great companion piece to the diet book.
