Jumpstart Your Weight Loss Journey with The Whole Body Reset: A Plan for a Flatter Belly

Michele G: The biggest takeaways are
start the day with protein &
eliminate hidden sugar.
I find it easy to start the day with cottage cheese (Good Culture brand is best) eggs, high protein bread, nuts, milk and fruit. These are my "go-to" choices that I offer as suggestions.
Some of these things also work as snacks, but it's important to look at ingredients to avoid hidden sugar. Most breads are especially problematic.
I am also able to make good choices when we eat out.
It's amazing how much I can eat and keep my weight down.
When I read the negative reviews, I was sad to see that these people missed the point of this book, which is a gift to the public.
To get started, I suggest looking for one of the YouTube videos where the authors explain things better than anyone else can.
Eating this way also boosts my mood and energy level.

Long time customer: This book embodies a common sense approach that is becoming more favored: increase protein intake and strength train for fitness and longevity. Since this book came out, other authors/podcasters have published basically the same ideas on both diet and exercise (Outlive and Forever Strong, to name two). The dietician I met with said basically the same thing as what is recommended in this book. It takes some thought to plan meals, but otherwise this isn’t complicated.

DMG: So I used to have struggles with the dieting roller coaster we go on, and as I got older this became more difficult. But also very important since I’m in the middle-older middle age group! (50s). There is no shortage of books out there or behavior modification plans that may work for others. However for me, at this stage of life, the principles of Whole Body Reset make sense. AND don’t create a dieting mentality- (they stress more fiber/protein and do not eliminate carbs). AND is flexible to various needs-fast and easy, more gourmet ideas, or just simple and homemade. I aim for 25-30 grams protein per meal, along with several (more than 5) grams of fiber. They even give you a way to quickly assess a food at the market to see if it’s on par or way off an ideal balance of nutrients (simple-adding protein and fiber and making sure there is LESS sugar)…Although too many packaged foods doesn’t give the health punch that fresh/unprocessed produce, dairy and meat offer.

I’m someone who is skeptical when I read the words “I am never hungry!!” on a diet plan review. So I know this is cliche, but I truly AM satisfied eating this way.

Let’s review the pros of...

Voracious Reader: Only gave 4 stars as I wish there was more direction on a day to day plan. Otherwise well written & makes sense! Gonna get the Audible version to listen to while traveling,

Amazon Customer: My download version of the book was terrible. Sentences broken up in odd places and words only half printed made it difficult to read . I hate having to slog through hundreds of pages just to get to the information I really want ,mainly the recipes and food suggestions. Edit out all the unwanted fluff and stuff and you would have a book about 12 pages long. At least then it would be easy to find things!
Needless to say I returned the book.

Library girl: After reading the article in AARP about this approach to senior nutrition, I bought the book. It's a mixed bag.

The good: Some useful, sound nutritional advice that you can act on immediately, without a lot of prep or outlay on expensive extras. Good examples on how to stick to guidelines while eating out. No fat-shaming. Explodes some lingering diet myths like the low-fat craze. Some of the exercises are good and well-described. Many of the recipes are good combinations of fresh, healthy food, though some were way too fiddly (I'm looking at you, Farro Chicken with Bok Choy). Adding protein as the book suggests, especially at breakfast, has indeed increased my energy levels significantly, so that's probably worth the price of the book.

The less-good: Like an earlier reviewer, I found the book poorly organized and puzzling in places. The section on "The Whole Body High Intensity Interval Workout" covers five pages, two of which are devoted to a kind of sidebar with ideas on how to motivate yourself to actually do the workouts, one page to the benefits of HIIT, and a poorly-designed chart showing "workouts," except they don't actually say what to do. There's virtually...
