I love how this book is laid out. It not only makes it user friendly but also very easy to read. This book is not a diet plan that you have to follow precisely but more of a guide and inspiration. I hate how some diet books spend pages and pages telling you exactly what and how much of it to eat at each meal. The biggest loser teaches you how to eat healthy with what you already eat. It helps you to learn the difference between calories and fat, good carbs and bad, and even discusses a more nutritional adult food pyramid to follow. So rather than saying you need to eat 1 cup of strawberries at lunch it tells you to eat one cup of fruit. It leaves the choices of what you will eat up to you and just guides you to pick the healthier choices. I also love the exercise portion of The Biggest Loser. Again it helps you to learn the difference between the exercises you are performing, what each one is doing for your body and how it will affect you.
I think The Biggest Loser should be considered a book of inspiration and not one of diet and exercise, thats really what it does! It inspires you to become a better, healthier, happier you!
You just have to have the will power to pick up the book and let it inspire you to become a different person!

If you're a fan of The Biggest Loser on NBC then you should get this book. The stories and tips from the cast from Season 1 and Season 2 give so much encouragement to someone that is trying to lose weight. You'll learn how to figure out your daily caloric intake, how to eat with the 4-3-2-1 Biggest Loser Pyramid and exercise. Buy this book and be inspired and challenged to be the biggest loser!

It has a lot of useful information on how to work at getting the weight off in a healthy way. Pictures to show the how to exercises and success stories of past biggest looser contestants. I would liked to have seen some type of charting system offered to track personal success.

I love this book! After being inspired by the show, I decided to get this book to change my eating and cooking habits. It has really wowed me. I have really enjoyed using it. The recipes are great, they taste amazing, and I love how they show the calorie count.
I use this book approximately 3 times a week and I've not gotten sick of the recipes yet! I've lost about 12 lbs! It's awesome. I will look REALLY hot when my husband gets back from Iraq! yipeee!!!

This book is so informational for all of us "yo yo dieters". Speaking from personal experience being on a "diet" is the hardest thing to accomplish. I have had a lot of struggles throughout life. Being on a "diet" is the hardest struggle. This book was so inspiring and so realistic. Reading about others stuggles with weight gain and loss, was just like my own struggles. And to read how they succeeded and didn't give up was just tremendous. The trainers are also so inspiring. Julian can speak from the point of view of being "the heavy girl". She was there once herself and can pour more heart and soul into feeling what we all feel as being the "fat person". This book is filled with recipes, meal plans, calorie guides. All you need to get started on a new accomplishment of "weight loss". Don't look at it as being another "dreaded diet". Instead look at it as a future for not only yourself but your family, friends and everyone around you. First and foremost you need to make this all about YOU before anyone else. Only you and you alone can make the change. I no longer look at it as being on a "diet" but instead look at it as part of life. I want to enjoy life and live it as long as I can and this is all the inspiration I need to accomplish this very hard goal. In my prayers and in my thoughts. I hope I have inspired you just a little. God Bless you and BEST OF LUCK.

Disappointing Book2 of 3 people found this review helpful.
I didn't like this book because I thought it would be about the losers & how much weight they lost..and their stories. That was true for a very small portion of the book. One thing I did like was the pictures..but they didn't put the before & after pictures together...they are scattered throughout the book.

The Biggest Loser Wt Loss Program & RecipesReview created: 02/01/08

I have purchased many diet books before, but this one seems the most interesting. It gives personal goals as well as motivation. Gives exercises and down to earth tips on weight loss and how to succeed-planning and tools of keeping a weight journal, being accountable not only to yourself, but your food journal and if you have a partner and be accountable to him/her. Honesty.
It gives you recipes to follow, most of them has whole wheat flour in them, nothing wrong with that if you can have wheat products.
It comes down to sacrifice.. do you want to look good, slim and healthy or stay the way you are, depending on body structure and appearance? Short term or long term? Temporary or permanent results, the choice is yours.
The whole point of losing weight with this program is not to let it get out of hand. Lose with permanent results and be a success while having fun doing it, but if it happens that you gain weight, well, it's only a setback.
The bottom line this book was and is a good choice..it tells you how to stay on track and guides you to work hard at exercise and the benefit is a healthier YOU!
Good luck with all your endeavors.

I think this is a great way for people to learn how to cook and eat healthier meals. I just wish that it had more recipes in it. Guess I'll have to get the cookbook now.

I enjoyed reading about the cast, but I was hoping for more examples of what they actually ate day to day. I was also interested in the excercise routine and how long they actually did work out in any given day. Also, I was looking for more recipes I could use for two people to get me through the week.
