George Stella's Livin' Low Carb by George Stella (2004, Paperback)

Incredible cookbook! I have both of George Stella's books and use them daily. My husband has lost over 120 pounds in the last 11 months. George Stella's books have given us the life style change that we all needed to allow me to cook what my husband needs to maintain his weight loss. My family has loved everything I've made from these recipes and asks for them often. The only thing that is lacking in this edition is the calories for each recipe. I've never had a weight problem but I am an insulin dependent diabetic and the recipes are easy for me to calculate the carbs I'm getting. Great book, Great recipes, Great lifestyle!

My internist, who says he's a food-aholic and really, really loves to cook, recommended this book to me. It was inspiring to read the author's own totally positive experience that he and his family had with their change to the cooking/recipes that he refined (he's a chef) and to their diet of his foods. And the recipes really do sound great. I've tried a few, and though I'd never be confused with a chef, things turned out okay. (My doctor said that Stella even has a recipe for cheese puffs that are out of this world.)

My only "complaint" is that there's no place where the author actually states , grams of carbs or proteins that are acceptable in his "diet plan," which fruits are okay, etc. This is pretty basic necessary information to me, and being diabetic, I do have to pay attention to such details.

Other than that, it's a fine book. The photos of the prepared dishes can make me drool.

The recipes in this book are not only easy, but they are delicious. I have tried many of them already and I have not been disappointed at all. I love that the recipes use ingredients that can be found at large grocery stores. Some low-carb cookbooks call for ingredients that can only be found in health food stores, and this one does not. If I ate this food without knowing it was low carb, I'd never even know. The recipes are quick but elegant. They can be served to guests coming for dinner or to your family on an ordinary Monday night. A must buy for any low carbers out there!

The book is great-helps make the low carb lifestyle easy to adjust to. Love the recipes, the normal ingrediants that are not hard to find. I can eat pizza again- the crust was very good.

love the book, had originally seen it on QVC but was able to purchase it much cheaper on half.com. i have used many of the recipes and found they taste really good. i would recommend this to any one trying to cut carbs.

Fantastic cookbook by chef George Stella filled with Low Carb recipes and ideas for weigh loss. Great Book!

There was nothing negative about this transaction. Everything went smoothly...happy with the product...would do business with again.

I liked it because it is very informative. It is very helpful to those who need it.

I bought it because, I had watched the author of the book on tv and was very interested in reading about him and his recipes.

WOULD BE HAPPY TO DEAL WITH THIS SELLER AGAIN. GREAT.

These recipes in this book are ingredients that you keep in your home anyway you don't have to go out and buy a bunch of stuff to make 1 recipe thats why I Love Stella Style eating. I have lost 22 lbs since I brought this book. I just love it...great buy.

This low carb cookbook is chock full of wonderful and delicious recipes. The desserts are very tasty. You can even have chocolate! This book is highly recommended if you are looking for easy,fastlow carb recipes. Lok for his second cookbook you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely amazing recipes for low-carb living. After reading George's story,
I paged thru the whole book, wondering how a person could do a healthy, low-carb lifestyle while eating like this! Cook that I am, I am anxious to hit my
grocery store and start buying whats needed for some of these awesome dishes.
These recipes range from comfort food to elegant deserts. Being from a family
with a history of diabetics (although I am not, YET), I researched several diet programs and discovered that low-carb eating is key to regulating blood
sugar levels. If I can keep the wolf from the door a little longer, I'll do it
and this seems to be the easiest and tastiest way to do it.

Great cookbook. Easy to understand directions. Great recipes. Would definitely recommend this cookbook and any from George Stella.
