The Volumetrics Weight-Control Plan by Barbara J. Rolls, Robert A. Barnett (2001, Paperback)

I bought this book because I had heard about energy dense foods being more satisfying and promoting better health and weight loss at the same time. It just makes good sense to fill up on energy dense, lower caloried foods and makes it easier to walk away from meals satisfied without being over full. It is very well writen and easy to comprehend. I just wish it had more recipes that didn't require a lot of preparation for those of us who have limited time for food preparation. Otherwise the recipes are very good and tasty.

This book was recommended to me by a nutritionist and it is really wonderful. It addresses all aspects of weight management, not just diet, and I found it really helpful. I recommend it to anyone who is serious about making a permanent, healthy change.

I bought this book because it was highly rated as good eating program. Started on it 2 weeks ago. Never hungry. I feel better already.

Wonderful new ideas on weight control and implementing a new way of dining are found in The Volumetrics Weight-Control Plan. I am a lifetime member of Weight Watchers and find this book can be incorporated into the Weight Watchers plan -- what more could one ask for than 2 great weight control plans working together.
Volumetrics has meal plans for you to choose from - you choose what you want for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I find the food is very filling and often more that I can eat. I have never left the table hungry and I don't crave food in between meals. The meals are healthy and good.
I highly recommend Volumetrics if you want to lose weight, maintain weight and learn a new style of lifetime dining.

Excellent information for anyone who would like to Learn how to diet. Ah! Those were the days when I didn't have to worry about what and how much I ate. This will teach you how to diet without being hungry. Very healthy, practical lifestyle.
