The Shangri-La Diet by Seth Roberts (2006, Hardcover)

Have had the book for about a month, incorporated the oil usage, and food was no longer an issue. Loss of appetite was tremendous, so I just put good eating habits with the oil. You could use South Beach, Weight Watchers, or any good solid method. The lack of hunger with only around 1200 calories a day, including the oil, is amazing.
I have lost 22 lbs in little over a month, using this method, only 60 more to go. I do limit calories, and junk food, because it is so easy to do, without the hunger pangs...Highly recommend you give it a try.

Diet doesn't work as well as it claims even when following instructions very carefully. It did seem to curb appetite for the first week, but not much after that.

Well, this book was a very interesting read. Very user friendly...easy to follow and a quick read. I did try it for a couple of weeks and I wish I could say I lost weight and curved my sweet cravings...however, all that really happened was I dreaded swallowing the whole tablespoon of oil and I still ate from boredom or habit. I think the idea is good if and only if you eat when you are hungry. How many of us really do that? If you have a strong will power, then by all means try it. You could try the sugar water but you must drink it slowly as to avoid a sugar rush and spike in your blood sugar. If nothing else, the book motivates you to do something at least.

The book was received in a timely manner in excellent condition. I haven't done well on the diet but the book was good. Thank you.

Book arrived promptly and in excellent condition. I was very happy with my purchase and if I was in need of merchandise from this seller, I would happily purchase from them again.
