Great-looking abs are more than just a way to support the mirror industry.
In fact, strong abs and flat stomachs are the ultimate indicator of overall
health-for both men and women. Great abs will help you live longer, sleep
better, prevent back pain, and significantly improve your sex life! (And,
hey, they dont look half-bad in the mirror, either.) Unfortunately, you could
spend years on starvation diets and extreme exercise programs that never

While I was working on my Masters in Counseling I learned the phrase "It's
not what you say but how you say it" and I think this book is a prime
example of helping others make changes by saying it right, and backing it
up with scientific proof.
As a weight loss coach myself I know that there has to be verbal keys that
unlock whatever is holding someone back from making the changes they
need to in their life to be healthy...but sometimes explanations fall on deaf
ears that aren't ready for change. However, this book changed ME and
how I help others. It is packed with proof, guidance, whys and hows and I
can't imagine it not making a change for any reader.
I agree with the review that says don't get this in the Audio version. I have
both a hard copy and a Kindle edition--the Kindle edition worked find but I
prefer the hard copy because you do want to flip back and forth to the food
groupings (you'll see what I mean when you read it) However, you can also
do this by simply saving certain pages on your Kindle.
I recommend this book over the woman's edition...not enough changes in
that one and this is just concise and clear.
I still limit caloric intake but if you pair that up with the way of eating that
the abs diet goes into, you don't hit plateaus and your body work s as a
well-oiled machine to give you more energy and utilize fat stores for energy
when you limit your caloric intake.
This is the healthiest way of getting fit and, ironically, a fast way to do it as
well. It's not a good read you put down, for me it was a lifestyle change.
Oddly, it had other effects aside from just healthy weight loss with no
plateaus...my face has broken out since I was a teenager and I'm now 43.
After just a few weeks of this style of eating I had flawless skin. When I
moved into a new house and had no time to eat right, my old issues of
lowered energy, skin breakouts etc. came back...as they have everytime
since then that I've gone off track. I rarely do go off track, however...there
just is not need to. This provides for excellent meals and healthy living for
LIFE rather than just a short term interim diet.

4. Negatives: Easy to overeat if you forget to consider your calorie
consumption as well. As long as you don't overdo the calories, this combo
of foods is a great way to lose weight but he doesn't quite stress that
calories in vs calories out is still the only way to lose weight best. In fast
the largest weight loss study in the world was recently completed by the
New England Journal of Medicine...took 8 years and thousands of peopl e
but proved calorie deficit is still the best way to lose weight, not limiting
carbs etc as once thought. Old school thought is now accepted as medical
science...if you take in less calories than you burn, your body uses fat to
function and you lose weight BUT if you do that with these foods, you
increase your burn, especially in your core. That too, has been proven.
Highly recommend.
