Description:

The Best Life Diet addresses all the things that conspire to make us overweight; since most people find the biggest issue they have is controlling their eating, diet takes the centre stage in this book. Based on a wide variety of satisfying, nutrient-rich and easy-to-find and prepare foods, this diet takes into account that eating is one of our greatest pleasures; you can love to eat and still live happily if you follow his advice. Greene is committed to his readers' success, so the book deals not only with nutritional needs but activity level as well. Greene will help readers understand their own body and what it really needs; of course calories count, but so does the balance of protein and carbohydrate you consume in relation to your real energy needs. So a couch potato should have a relatively lean diet of protein with fewer carbohydrates than a more active person, and an athlete needs more carbohydrates on a daily basis to fuel their higher activity level. Greene also encourages readers to understand and improve their emotional relationship with eating and food, a critical part in changing the way they eat for the better.

5I love this book!  Jan 14, 2010
This is the best "diet"book I've ever purchased. Switching to a healthier lifestyle is done in small steps so that they are easy to incorporate into your life. You get to eat all the food you love, but healthier. I have been doing phase 2 for 10 days and have lost 5 lbs. and I have more energy.

1Odd combinations  Nov 16, 2009
Many of the recipes in this book require unusual ingredients you would not normally have in your pantry. Plus if you run to the store to get them, their addition to the recipe is questionable, like unsweetened cocoa in chicken breasts with pumpkin seeds. Granted for many people this may sound appealing, but for my husband and I, most of the recipes in this book were way "out there." I wanted to try a fish recipe but the sounds of "Cod with Broiled Grapefruit and Avocado Butter" was tough to think about as was the "Rockfish with Clementines."
I finally decided on a dessert, since we were having company that loved chocolate but they were on a diet. How could "Chocolate Cake" be anything but fabulous? Well, these individual chocolate cakes were a tasteless disappointment.
Even the pictures in the book are not jumping out at you with appeal. I love to cook and I am forever watching my weight, but this book is a dust collector.

5very livable diet  Sep 22, 2009
I am on phase I of this diet and I haven't lost any weight. Phase 2 there will be more calorie restiction and weight loss. What it has done is improved my eating habits so I feel more control. No more starvation and over eating. My weight is constant and I could stay on phase 1 for the rest of my life. This diet is about making healthy long term changes.

5The Best Life Diet  Jul 01, 2009
This book is a great book for those who are looking to loose weight and to learn how to eat right. Eating right is a life style. There are some great recipes found at the back of the book.

A life changing book. Everyone should read it and make it a point to apply it. It's about being healthy and enjoying life in moderation. Absolutely Worth it!!
