Editorial Review:

Atkins, Master Cleanse, Jenny Craig, South Beach, The Zone. So many diets to choose from and so many different books to buy. But, at last, a path has opened in the enormous, overgrown thicket of diet information. This revolutionary book takes information from these weight loss and health management plans and organizes them into a sensible, easy to use reference. There is no other book even remotely like this one-as complete or as useful. The Diet Selector gives readers the skinny on more than 50 ways to lose weight through low- calorie, lowcarbohydrate, or low-fat diets with a thorough discussion on the merits of each approach. It gives the lowdown on popular fasting diets, liquid regimens, surgical solutions, jaw wiring, patches, and pills-every conceivable tactic used today to slim down. The Diet Selector ranks all of the best-known diets with at-aglance icons indicating: how punishing they are, cost of food, whether they’re for quick weight loss or the long haul, popularity, and suitability for people of different ages. Although the information is serious and valuable, the presentation is full of colorful charts, indicating such things as caloric values of key foods and the effectiveness of different exercise regimes. Also in there for fun: diet trivia that includes the first known diet, crazy celebrity trends, and fab or forbidden foods. There are also sample weekly eating plans presented diary-style on a grid with links to relevant websites. Beyond the quest for thin, this volume also addresses how to use nutrition to effectively combat health conditions like allergies, gastrointestinal disorders, thyroid problems, migraines, low metabolism, and heart disease. It truly is the most comprehensive diet book you can buy.

I agree... 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

...In my opinion, this book really could boast a teen's self esteem a lot, since it is about realistic lives of 2 teens during high school. I also believe that this could help people to know how do deal with many situations by reading how the students in this book dealt with their problems. I agree that this book has a lot of foul language and there are some mature types of situations between the students, so I don't think that many young children would read this book. But this book has many exciting things that happen, that will make u want to continue reading. Since this book shows two points of views of two different people that are different sexes, it will be an interesting, and unusual type of book to read. I think that this is a good book to recommend to people too!

Editorial Review:

Bolita (Bo for short) and Kyle are not exactly in the same clique: She's the shy girl working backstage at the school play, and he's front and center as Time Zone High's star quarterback. But then Kyle blows out his knee, quits football, and joins the school play, and Bo decides it's time for a change.

After a D.I.Y. makeover, Bo realizes she and Kyle aren't in such different cliques anymore. Now that she has his attention...can Bo turn Kyle into more than a friend?

good 4 out of 5 stars.
15 of 16 people found this review helpful.

Dr. Sears reads the books, its a little boring to listen to, but he's reading the zone books for you, just the same as the book! Zone diet is explained clearly - healthy eating, why its good, how to follow it - specific combinations of foods to help health and weightloss. Lots of good fruits and vegetables, protien to fit your size and activity level and some fat at each meal. Low-glycemic recommended foods are best.

Only if you want to achieve near-superhuman health. 5 out of 5 stars.

Buy this if you want to (in this order!): * Develop a permanent, healthy relationship with food and with your body. * Always have energy for exercise or simply living your life. * Virtually eliminate nasty body odors and bad breath. * Lose fat and gain muscle simultaneously. * Achieve nearly-superhuman health. * Become smug. * Avoid many chronic diseases.

No, Barry Sears isn't a wonderful speaker. But the information on these tapes will change your life if you do everything he says. It's *not* hard, people.

If you are frustrated with fad diets, don't worry: This isn't a fad, and it's not really a "diet." Diets are temporary; the Zone system is a nutritional program founded on moderation and legitimate nutritional principles. I became an instant evangelist for the Zone, and I'm 99% certain I'll live with it for the rest of my life.

By the way, the Zone is not anything at all like the Atkins diet. The Atkins diet is a dangerous fad diet that has many horrifying side-effects, like gaining an astronomical amount of fat after you quit and return to your "normal" eating patterns. I know this from first-hand, precision observations. However, you can follow the Zone your whole life and get excellent results with many positive side-effects.

Do yourself and your loved ones a favor and buy this.

Huge highs and lows 2 out of 5 stars.
52 of 55 people found this review helpful.

I started The Zone in August and didn't have much to lose--about 7 pounds. I lost it within a month and was thrilled. However, if I ever deviated SLIGHTLY from the Zone (i.e. a glass of wine without having protein with it) I would instantly gain five pounds. It was very stressful getting on the scale each morning. My weight has NEVER fluctuated this much.

Also, I have gained back all the weight I lost and have been trying for one month to lose it again (being a PERFECT Zone student) and have had no success. I realize that MANY MANY people have had success on this diet and if you had asked me two months ago I would've given it five stars! But I really think the diet messed up my metabolism. Just a warning!

Excellent application - but don't buy the bars! 5 out of 5 stars.

Dr. Sears has done an excellent job in researching his material and putting things into layman's terms for the general public to understand. Once you realize what the calorie, protien, carb and fat grams are in each food, you start to realize just how MUCH you need to eat to get there. No wonder you're never hungry! And the calories eaten are not drastic either. I have found some low-glycemic protien bars (Pure Protien) that I combine with my food to have a 'dessert' often.

I checked the health food store for one of his Zone bars and found it - only to be completely shocked that one of the first ingredients in the bar is high fructose corn syrup - the most high glycemic compound on the planet! That's like eating concentrated sugar!! I can't believe he would put something like that out on the market and pass it off as being 'healthy' and 'in the Zone'. His name is even on the package. I was hoping to write him a letter, but see this might be the only way he'll get the message. The diet is great - however - you need to plan your meals ahead of time to determine your food count, etc. But, it really works. JUST DON'T BUY THE BARS! (This review regards the hardcover book - Enter the Zone)
