Sooner or later you in the long run say to yourself, I have to lose a great deal of weight. It might even be your doctor giving you the ultimatum. “Lose that weight now or you are going to have severe health difficultnesses soon”, he says. You may likewise feel downhearted which is also a two edged sword. When we need to lose a good deal of fat from our bodies, we at times get lowspirited with regards to it. Depression have a tendancy to make us want to eat and eat and eat. We eat and eat, we get fatter than we were. It’s a vicious circle. You have tried all of the gimmick pills and diets. Still no loss in weight. You have joined weight watchers, still no loss in weight. So what may we do to get our life back in order and find that weight loss mystery that is so elusive? What may we do to crack the fat loss code? Luckily, there are programs out there that in truth do make sense and go beyond the stupid diets pills, exercise plans and other plans that could work if you did everything single thing in the plan. You need to do what your body wants to do, naturally. Maintain it’s own weight. Your body is designed to handle regulating your weight. This is unfeigned for just with regards to every one except perhaps someone who may have a thyroid problem or such but most everyone else has a built-in mechanism for controlling your weight. Your body’s metaboli process is responsible for keeping everything in balance. Over load it and you will never see loss weight. Under load it and you may have sever medical problems. You may get started to gain weight by under loading (not eating) also. Not eating sufficient is just as bad as overeating. Your weight troubles start out due to your body starving and wanting to hold all the calories it may find because it is confused and doesn’t know when your next meal will be. The body’s metamorphosis is genuinely too smart for it is own good but it is fundamentally a survival mechanism that most of us genuinely don’t need anymore since we have ample food. In earlier days when feed was scarce, we necessitated to store up calories as fat and then use that fat when feed was hard to come by. We likewise got rather a more bit of exercise than likewise to keep the metaboli process in good working order. Now that feed is plentiful; your body stores the extra calories (other than what it takes to make it through the day) away as fat and plans to use them. If the need never comes to use them there is no fat loss so you get more prominent and larger if you keep eating excess calories. Some people’s metaboli process is more quickly than others which means they may eat and eat and never seem to gain a pound. Then others have a slower metaboli process which no matter how little they eat, the body decides to store the fat. The older you get, the slower your metabolism, therefore when you get older, you commence to gain weight. There are plans that utilize and train your metamorphosis (almost tricking it) to use your fat store and then decently eat up the calories as needed. Some seem a bit harsh but the facts, plan and methods work the way that your body wants to work. They are a metabolic training scheme for your body. No Pills, Gimmicks or tricks. Just pure basic body science. Your metaboli process will speed up and keep your calories burned off. You are told incisively what to eat, when to eat and why. You would need to determine for yourself altho if this plan is the right one for you as with all diets. No diet out there will work if you don’t commit to it. So…start a loss weight program, crack the fat loss code and begin losing weight. Start sentiment better in regards to your self and the depression will also slip away. It’s a win-win. A happier, Healthier you. |

WOW!

It’s science, no it’s magic, no it’s Science, no it’s Magic. Well, actually it is science…but it feels like Magic.

By C. Duvall
UPDATE (7/2008)! Still at it, folks, and still dropping. A little slower now and after a round of nasty, nasty steroids with the associated water weight gain. I STILL love the flexibility (and wine) on this plan. Especially with my hectic and varied work schedule, travel, client lunches, entertaining and gosh knows what else.

Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I bought this book on the word of several friends who have been heavy all their lives and lost copious amounts of weight on the program and have kept it off. I gained a great deal of weight after the age of forty and after being 132 pounds, size 6 for all my adult life. After discovering I had hypothyroid disease and getting that regulated, I began a quest to lose the weight I’d gained. I tried Jenny Craig and Nutrisystem, but hated the prepackaged food and sameness of the diet.
My one criticism is that the book is not easy to follow, so I took it one chapter at a time rather than trying to read the whole book at once. That works well. I follow it chapter by chapter as I progress through the weeks. I LOVE this program as it doesn’t revolve arounnd the same eating pattern every day. And if I have a bad day or two, I simply carb down for four days and start week two again.
While there are not a diversity of recipes, I like most of the ones in the book (can’t stand the egg cheeseburger, however) and have come up with several of my own.
Like most programs, it works if you work it.
Too difficult to follow
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This book is very difficult to follow. If I had a chef and personal trainer, this book would be wonderful. I actually like how you can have carb days; however, I do not live in a perfect world.
I am a working mother that works full-time (different hours) and has a son that is a picky eater that I pick up late from daycare.
There are too many rules to follow and even with the day-to-day planner you still have to plan a lot. And the food is expensive.
I tried reading the book twice and found it difficult to follow. I really do wish I could have mastered it because I really need to lose the weight and I was looking forward to following this diet.
FRUSTRATING AND CONFUSING !!!
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This book contains good information and for 3 wks I have lost pounds and inches. However, without my daughter’s help, it would have been too hard to follow. Over the years, I have read through and followed many diet books. The organization of this book stinks.
Crack the Fat-Loss Code
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I ordered Crack the Fat-Loss Code to learn the ins and outs of losing weight for good. I think I’m on the right track.
A diet for the people that eat to live, not live to eat.
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
There were several good tips in the book- like alternating carb days, however, I found the menu planning very boring. I love to cook & make new dishes & this is not for folks like me. For example, broccoli used to be one of my favorite vegetables but how can you eat the same thing day after day as is required. Yuck. I quit after week two.
New York Times Bestseller?
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
I read the book from cover to cover and thought it was unneccesarily complicated even in the beginning. I feel that the author could have made it more user friendly with regard to chapter and menu organization. I am sure that it makes sense in her mind but for the reader who wants a lifestlye change; simplicity is best.
I decided to start the first week because a menu was provided for all seven days. No thinking. Then when I started to shop for Week Two I realized after alot of page turning that the menu provided for Week Two is really for Week Three. If the premise of this diet is to follow Macro patterning you have to follow the pattern correctly.
I wrote the author about the confusion. What to start next? CC BB etc,. BBCC, Got a prompt email saying that my request would be answered but over forty-eight hours later, and still no reply or support.
It’s not the end of the world but it’s annoying and could have been provided. The reader has to make sure, really sure that they read the heading so they are not doing planner B, C or D in other cycles. It could easily happen.
I will say the recipes provided are tasty. Not sure if I will continue at this point? If I do continue through week eight I will write again to revise my review.

This is the first in a series of two books that helped me to make an informed decision about changing my lifestyle.
Best Diet Book I’ve Ever Read!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I have tried every diet and read many books and articles about dieting. This book is working for me because it tells you specifically what to do and how to eat to lose weight but more importantly, it gives you the scientific information as to why our bodies fight losing weight. This book makes total sense to me and I would recommend it to anyone out there who isn’t looking for gimmicks but want the cold, hard facts about dieting!
Finally, Something I Can Live With
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Love the book! I lost ten pounds in two weeks! That is even with my carb up days and pretty much eating what I want. I haven’t followed the plan exactly, mainly because of the holidays. She recommends not eating pies or cake during the first eight weeks, but with birthdays and other holidays, I have cheated a little and I am still down ten pounds. I think this is definitely something that I live with the rest of my life!
Excellent Information
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Like so many I’ve been on this diet and that diet. Getting really good information that is usable and friendly to the frustrated dieter is always a tough deal. Wendy knows, Wendy understands the dilemma. Read her first one, “Crack…” and then “Conquer…” The diet, the “lifestyle” is pretty easy to do when you understand what happens with what you eat and how your body uses and stores what you eat. I personally realized that what I put in my mouth is very important if I want to be around for and with my grand kids. What’s your goal and what’s your purpose for losing weight? Decide and then take your life more seriously. Good Luck!
The diet really works!!!

Very well explained. Step by step. I will recommend to any one who wants to lose weight.
It works!

I am a weight watchers person and have plateaued for the last four years. By following this plan within the weight watchers point system, my weight loss has started again. It feels so good to be down 10 pounds in the last month.
Poorly written, Badly edited, mis-information…..Doesnt work
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This book is poorly written. The author constantly uses analogies to cars, and gasoline. It gets to be laborious to read — I’d rather read facts, and correct terminology. It is insulting to my intelligence. The format of the book is hard to read — the diets are at the back of the book, but you have to search in the middle for recipes and search again elsewhere to find the the substitute lists. The book will tell you a recipe is on a certain page, and it’s really several pages away. It is very unorganized!
Also, the nutritional values are way wrong on several recipes. For instance, the recipe for crepes (which are horrible!) states 20 grams of protein, 1 gram of fat and 15-25 grams of Carbs. Well, the protein powder alone has 20-23 grams of protein. The oatmeal has another 4 grams of protein, and the 4 eggs have another 20 or so grams of protein. That’s over double what the author states! The oatmeal also has 2 grams of fat, and surely the egg yolk has a little fat…again double the author’s stated 1 gram of fat.
The before-and-after shots of her clients are also insulting to my intelligence! She has a before/after shot of one woman…and she’s a size 4 before and a size 4 after! Another man has lost several pounds, and totally firmed up his body. But….the muscle didnt come from this diet, it came from him lifting weights and working out.
Another thing—-since you must excercise (and honestly should with any diet plan), the author doesnt tell you WHEN you should eat for ideal performance. This is very important if you lift weights or do intensive cardio. You need energy to lift weights, so you need to know WHEN to eat. I’m surprised the author, who is a former bodybuilder, totally omitted this type of information!
Lastly, this diet did not work for me. I do feel like I’m eating healthier than I was before, but I’m not losing any weight or fat. In fact, in 3 weeks, I’ve only lost 5 pounds. I’m following it very closely. And, the 1st 2 whole weeks of the diet I didnt even have a bowel movement — I had to buy laxatives. That’s not healthy!
Save your money. Find another diet. This book is horrible. I’ve heard the “idiot proof diet” online works well, maybe I’ll try that.
This is a guide that has worked for several of my clients.
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
As a personal trainer, I have read dozens of “diet” books and seen the successes – and more often – failures of all of them. Several of my clients began using this guide and find that it works into their lifestyle and they haven’t felt deprived of foods they like. I’ve purchased copies for others to try and will update this review as results come in.
All “diet” plans can be tedious to follow and this one is no exception. If you won’t stay with it for at least six months, you will waste your time and money. Once you start cheating, you’re done for!
In my experience, the best way to insure success is by keeping a journal. A pad of paper in your pocket is all it takes and you MUST write down everything you put in your mouth. As they say, if you bite it – write it. The idea is to make you think as you’re making the decision – so writing it down later doesn’t help. I tell clients to write it down before they put it in their mouth – even one chip! Good luck.
Finally. A change I can live with !!!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I have been trying for years to find a diet that I could actually live with. This has been the one I’ve been looking for. I don’t have to count calories, points or carbs. I don’t have to spend lots of time cooking. I can go out for meals and not feel guilty. This is so good I’m giving the books as gifts to my daughters who are excited about my weight loss and increase in energy. I lost 10 lbs in the first week.
