good if you can wade through the nonsense
The information in this book is groundbreaking and extremely valuable. It is taking me an inordinate amount of time to read it however because there are waaaaaay too many cutsey analogies and clever phrases. Almost every sentence in some cases. I find this to be distracting from the much needed important information. He's playing to the lower level of reader here, the video game generation who can't go for more than two sentences without getting bored and needing some (irritating to my mind) sensory input. The way he writes isn't unlike the bells and whistles you find on a loud video game. I guess if your book is on Oprah, you don't have to consider the need to respect your reading audience's intelligence. I wish he'd put out a book with "just the facts". Having said that, it is an ...

I guess if your book is on Oprah, you don't have to consider the need to respect your reading audience's intelligence. I wish he'd put out a book with "just the facts". Having said that, it is an important book for those who really wish to know how the body works and how to improve on it. His evaluation of the role inflammation and stress play in excess weight is very useful information for me. He doesn't tell much about where the inflammation comes from except for the categories of food that can cause it. Expect the AMA and FDA main-line position here on things like pollution, chemicals in soils and food, artificial stuff in food and especially the toxins in drugs as they are not discussed. All in all, an important book to have if you can wade through it.

I'm nowhere near finished. To have all this information helps immensely but like all "diets" there are restrictions that are hard to bear and, in this case, hard to understand. Bearing in mind these are drs. I didn't feel that they talked down to me but some of their counsel didn't really resonate with me either. I don't weigh myself every day. Never have. So why, suddenly, do I have to measure myself every day??? I's not like 5 inches are going to melt away overnight, only to return the following night, so why? They never explain this in a manner that satisfies me! As I said, I'm not finished with the book but so far... There is some to take and some to leave, just as in every other diet book I've ever bought and read. I will say that it goes into GREAT detail about diet and ... I'm nowhere near finished.

I will say that it goes into GREAT detail about diet and nutrition and touches on areas that have not previously been touched upon in other diet books so for that alone, it is a worthwhile investment.

I must first warn you that every second or third sentence in this book is a joke or pun. While I personally find this book to be highly amusing and entertaining, others may find the dosage of humor to be excessive. The negative reviews here are essentially, I believe, a result of personality clash. Not everyone can appreciate humorous reading, let alone interwoven with profoundly intricate (and serious) information about how the body works. I find the mixing of the two elements an unusual presentation. I think it works...IF you have a good sense of humor. The illustrations mirror the spirit of the text. They are as detailed as they are amusing. Missing out on reading this book would be unfortunate. I must reiterate that the insight this book offers on how the human body works (relative to ...

They are as detailed as they are amusing. Missing out on reading this book would be unfortunate. I must reiterate that the insight this book offers on how the human body works (relative to weight) is to an extent of detail that I (and probably you) have never read anywhere else. You'll learn from a cellular chemical reaction level WHY you shouldn't eat that jelly doughnut. I greatly admire that psychological and even spiritual issues are gently presented, as well. No boot camp mentality here. The authors are not above the use of pharmaceuticals or weight-loss surgery for someone to reach their goal. Even cosmetic surgery for after the weight is gone is discussed. They don't seem to hold any illusions. Yes, I read the deodorant theory. I don't have an intimate companion, either. Don't sweat the things that don't necessarily apply to you. What does and will apply to you can be IMMENSELY useful! The plan is not difficult to implement. Even if you use an eating plan other than the one presented in the book, read the book anyway. There's some really good information on what affects a person's weight, and you can use that information to your benefit.

You on a Diet
I purchased this after hearing Dr. Oz on Oprah. I knew alot about physiology yet was hearing new things that interested me. The connection with fats and sugars on metabolism, is made very clear in the book and with lots of drawings and clear descriptions,analogies really imprints on the brain the need to clean up our diets. The benefits are a shrinking waistline, healthier liver,arteries,and intestines. I have applied some of the suggestions,cleaning out the bad foods, right kinds of snacks,portion size and have noticed a change for the better. The 2 week diet in the book is reasonable...havent started it yet, may not need too if these other 1st suggestions are sufficient for me. The exercise routine is very good for those who cant get to a gym...not necessary. Have enjoyed doing it ... I purchased this after hearing Dr. Oz on Oprah.

Highly recommend this book, great motivator and based on accurate knowledge of the human body. Also very comforting to read if we get past the mental stuff that blocks path to eatting right our bodies actually have a "set point" and want to get there. We're not destined to be overweight. He discusses those issues and even offers suggestions to deal with those issues...very smart. The evidence, in the lives of those that apply these suggestions are the proof that this is appropriate advice.

You on a Diet
I decided to buy this book because it deals with belly fat and I am in serious desire to trim the fat off my middle. Because it was a NYTimes best seller and highly publicized and EBay price discounted I chose You On A Diet. Great choice - highly readable, punctuated with humorous remarks and comic drawings to illustrate the anatomical scene, and to leave you with visual memory of what happens with your insides when your diet is wacko. I find myself remembering some little devil character with a pitchfork, pinching my intestines, and so I bypass the fried fritters and go for a baked potato, etc. Also covered is the exercise aspect which inspired me to start riding my real bike again, and already friends are noticing I look good--feel good--Thanks, You On A Diet, I commend and ...
