The keys to overweight are liver toxicity, waterlogged tissues, fear of eating fat, excess insulin, and stress, asserts nutritionist Ann Louise Gittleman. Her Fat Flush Plan addresses these problems with a targeted diet.

The Fat Flush Plan, filled with nutritional analysis and detailed explanations, is not a quick read. Despite Gittleman's assertion that the plan is "as easy as 1-2-3," it is quite regimented. No white flour, white sugar, margarine, vegetable shortening, artificial sweeteners, or caffeine. The diet emphasizes essential oils (e.g., flaxseed and GLA), protein (eight ounces or more, plus two eggs a day), vegetables, thermogenic spices (e.g., ginger and cayenne), water, and diuretic beverages (eight glasses/day of diluted, unsweetened cranberry juice). In its first two-week phase, the plan is a rigid, low calorie (1,100-1,200 calories/day), low-carb (no grains or starchy vegetables) diet. Phase two lets you increase your calories to 1,500 and add two "friendly carbs." Phase three, the "lifestyle program," moderately adds more dairy, carbs, and calories. Gittleman promotes walking and recommends strength training in phase three.

The book includes 41 recipes such as Grilled Lamb Chops with Cinnamon and Coriander, Breakfast Egg Fu Yung, and Cumin Sautéed Scallops. The Fat Flush Plan is recommended for dieters willing to commit to a strict plan for weight loss. --Joan Price

Book Description

Kiss cellulite goodbye!

The Fat Flush® Plan

melts fat from hips, waist, and thighs in just two weeks and re-shapes your body while detoxifying your system.

The Fat Flush Plan is a groundbreaking low carb/detox diet and fitness program. Fat Flush is known as the only diet program that gets rid of bloat, supports the liver, cleans up the lymph, and helps to eliminate the appearance of cellulite – for good. An international best-seller with legions of devoted followers, The Fat Flush Plan has been featured on The View, as well as in cover articles in Time, Glamour, Self, and many others. It is based upon essential fats (such as flax seed oil and flax seeds), balanced proteins (including eggs, meat, fish, and moderate soy) plus low-glycemic healthy carbs from fat flushing fruits and vegetables. The Plan also features “cleansing” tonics such as unsweetened cranberry juice and water, the “Long Life Cocktail,” and daily hot water and lemon juice as well as a delicious array of fat burning, water regulating, and insulin controlling herbs and spices (think cayenne, mustard, cilantro, parsley, cinnamon, and cloves).

5 out of 5 stars Good .......2007-09-24

"The Fat Flush Plan" presents foods, herbs, spices, and supplements that help you cleanse your body, speed up fat loss, and lead healthier live. It will help you adopt healthy eating habits. What the book is missing, in my opinion, is other aspects of healthy living. Proper nutrition is important but it is only a small part of it. For much more comprehensive information on healthy lifestyle I highly recommend getting "Can We Live 150"

4 out of 5 stars Good style of eating, but hard to maintain.......2007-08-29

I bought this book a few years ago, and it worked out very well. I lost 15 lbs in 2 weeks without ever working out. Then when I started working out I lost another 15 lbs the next week. However, this an expensive style of eating to maintain. I call it a style of eating, because it really wasn't like a "diet" to me compared to every other one I had been on. But with what my husband and I make, I just couldn't afford to keep buying the expensive foods. Since I stopped using the book I still use flax seeds in things when I remember, and drink lemon water and cranberry juice often, but I have gained back every pound and then some! I would recommed this book to people, but with a disclaimer staing "be prepared to pay big bucks!" However, if you are overweight/obese and have many health problems that require you to take medications, this book would be well worth the try and the money. Because for a lot of people I know, they've eventually been taken off of their expensive medications. And eating healthy is always safer and cheaper than taking prescription meds every day. And no one should expect this to be a quick fix, nor any other diet! It takes hard work and determination to stick to any healthy eating plan. If you eat junk for years on end, and then begin to eat healthy, wether or not you follow this particular plan, you can expect to lose some amount of weight, it will vary with for everyone. But if you just go right back to eating the way you were before, obviously you're going to gain the weight back! It took me a while to realize that, but at least I did realize it, right? By the way, why are naturally, healthy, good for you foods so expensive compared to overprocessed junk food?

1 out of 5 stars Not for those who just need to lose 10-15 lbs.......2007-08-11

As a 44-year old woman who exercises regularly, eats very well and takes a handful of supplements everyday, I just wanted to lose a few pounds in my chest and waistline. I was not overweight to begin with. However, I had this book on the shelf and decided to give it a whirl. I didn't make it through Phase One. I thought it wouldn't be too bad since I don't like sweets and I rarely eat anything with high-fructose syrup or sugar. I also only eat whole grain "good" carbs and I used to be a vegan so excluding dairy would be no problem. Even foregoing my wine was easy. However, I found this diet too restrictive and the recipes bland and boring. Come on!!! I love curries!! Isn't tumeric suppose to be good for you? I was extremely lethargic for the whole time and had to take 2-hour naps during the day. My head hurt tremendously and I was foggy, unfocused and dizzy all the time. Let's not even discuss my mood swings and periods of craziness. With my blood pressure being somewhat low, I was concerned that I was not getting enough sodium. One day I was so out of it that my husband suggested I drink a V-8 juice which has alot of sodium. I drank 1/2 a can and felt better in almost minutes.

I was so fatigued that I had to forego my daily 1.5 hour bike rides. Clearly this is counter-productive to losing weight. Overall, I would not recommend this diet to anyone who isn't overweight and just wants to lose a few pounds. I think I'll just go back to eating well and exercising but I'll just eat smaller portions.

5 out of 5 stars Save on future doctor bills!!.......2007-07-13

I want to join in with the other Fat Flushers who have stated with absolute conviction that this plan works. I lost 15 lbs. on this plan. I don't want to use the term "diet" because this book is intended to be a lifestyle change. This book has helped me to detox my liver, cleanse my colon, and be more aware of what goes into my body. I started the Fat Flush Plan because I wanted to lose weight. After reading this book, some of what she said really scared me because I knew it was true. I could tell by the way I felt. This book helped me to get rid of that awful feeling. I succeeded on the Plan because I used the sample menus and adjusted them to my liking. To be honest, there are quite a few foods for which I don't care. I have taken as my own a lot of Ann Gittleman's recommendations. Most of my food is organic and fresh. I don't eat any processed foods anymore. If I can't find what I'm looking for in the grocery store, then I go to my favorite health food store. I fix a lot of her recipes. My favorite is "Yummy Meatloaf." Of course, I love the smoothies. This book has opened my eyes to a lot of things that damage our bodies,and it gives the tools on how to repair them. By drinking the cran-water, my cellulite has greatly diminshed. For anyone thinking of starting this plan, or is in the midst of it, you have to stick with it. Adjust the menus to your liking and don't skip a meal. The first phase of the plan is probably the hardest. Once you're through that, you'll be glad that you did it. I didn't feel hungry or deprived, and I didn't have any cravings. I was a coffeeholic, but I've been able to get rid of that addiction. These changes have made me more energetic; my attitude is a very positive one; and my skin looks better. In another review, someone made mention of Ann Gittleman's products. I use them, and have been quite happy with them. The whey protein is excellent. They are a tad bit expensive, but the way that I look at it is that purchasing these products and eating healthy is money well spent on avoiding doctor bills in the future! So, I highly recommend this book!

5 out of 5 stars The best thing I've ever done for myself!.......2007-07-15

This is the best thing I have done for myself------EVER! In the first two weeks I lost 11 lbs. I still have a ways to go, but I feel wonderful and it's a great motivator to keep going. Even if you did this program and didn't drop any weight it's worth it because you will feel GREAT! I have more energy, my skin looks better, and my aches/pains are gone. In the morning I used to wake up groggy, but now I wake up and I'm ready to go! I have an infant so sleep is a rare commodity and even though I'm up in the night I still feel way better than I did before starting the program. I have recently become very concerned about all the toxins we put into our bodies and this book explains how they interfere with your body systems. I really like how the book explains the what, why, and how of nutrition. It's going to help me make better choices for my baby also. I want to take steps to limit her exposure to toxins and have her grow up eating the right foods.

I guess I've been eating all the wrong things over the years. This is a life changing program. It's not a quick fix, but it teaches you how to eat to feel great and keep the weight off. I found it very easy to get started after reading the book. It's very easy to read and has clear instructions. The supplies were easy to find online or at my local health food store. Initially it seems more expensive, but it's really not. You will end up buying different groceries than you used to buy. I don't feel like I'm spending more I'm just buying way different things.

I have tried many programs over the years including Atkins, the Zone, Weight Watchers, Slim Fast, etc. and lost weight just to gain it back. This is the first time I have felt like my life is changing forever. Instead of living to eat, I will eat to live and feel wonderful! If you want to feel great and/or lose weight, try this!

5 out of 5 stars Sensible weight loss.......2007-05-14

Found Ann Louise's diet makes sense. I'm enjoying learning about the liver & lymph system.

4 out of 5 stars Very sensible weight loss and maintenance program.......2007-05-12

I followed the diet strictly for Phase 1 and lost 10 pounds and at least 3 inches from my waist and hips. My face got noticeably thinner as well. It was very difficult the first few days to give up salt, but my tastebuds adjusted and now I really enjoy the food. Giving up the fat was not hard at all. I have to use Stevia to sweeten the cranberry water though.

I would not recommend buying this book without the cookbook. The recipes in the plan book are very limited and she has actually added some "legal" spices in the cookbook that improve the flavor of many of the foods. The easy bake salmon is a family favorite.

My two little children did not really enjoy most of the recipes (I have made about 20 of the different recipes...you end up doing lots of cooking). My husband liked them but added salt and pepper to everything. I think she should add more ethnic dishes (some Thai dishes use all the right spices). It isn't that difficult to adapt some of your favorite recipes to the plan's requirements.

The hardest thing about the plan is carving out the time to shop and cook everything. I work full time and have children, so spending hours in the kitchen is not on my "to do" list. Barbecuing a bunch of Limey chicken and eating it over bagged salad with the Fat Flush dressing ended up being lunch, and a sort of "convenience food."

I am starting week four and plan to stick with the diet until I get to my target weight. But I also feel like the best benefit of the process is not just weight loss but realizing the way that I need to eat for my health. I have experienced a big change in my energy level and I attribute that to cutting out sugar and wheat. I like the experimental part of this diet where you add back foods a little at a time and track how your body responds. When I do make it down to the weight I desire it will be so easy to know how to maintain it!

5 out of 5 stars It is true to it's word.......2007-04-07

After reading The Fat Flush Plan, I decided to try the plan. I have to say, it is true to it's word. The book is very easy to follow. As for the diet it truly works. What I found most promising is that the plan is not too extreme.

2 out of 5 stars Fat Flush Program.......2007-03-31

The concepts of this program makes sense. It is however very restictive and too difficult to follow in my busy life. I did however take some of the stategies and apply them to my life; such as drinking the flaxseed oil and the 64 oz of unseetened cranberry juice. I was unable to give up my morning coffee but have tried to do the hot lemon water before my first cup.

5 out of 5 stars Informative.......2007-08-23

I thought it very interesting and wasn't really aware of what I was doing to my body. I have since with a couple of my friends revised the way we eat know. No bread (yeast) products have gone past my lips in over a month now. I have also tried different things like seaweed and dulse and just add more protein to my diet. I haven't been able to fit into many things at the beginning of spring/summer but can now. I never feel as full any more and I only eat when hungry not when I just crave something.
thank you so much.

5 out of 5 stars Fat Flush Foods.......2007-07-29

Classic herbs which help to flush fat are flaxseed oil, anise,
cayenne, cinnamon, cumin, fennel seed, garlic and parsley.
Apple seed vinegar, cranberry , B12 and flaxseed oil help to flush
cholesterol. Lemons act as a detoxifier. Lamb acts to stabilizer
blood sugar, as well as salmon and whey protein.

Other fat flush foods are fresh veggies,asparagus, broccoli, cabbage,
cauliflower, jicama (potato and apple cross) and cucumber.
The acquisition would be perfect to supplement any formal diet plan.
As such, it would be a good value for the price charged.

5 out of 5 stars Great information!.......2007-07-15

This book taught me a lot about what foods I should be eating. Very informative and easy to read.

5 out of 5 stars You can't go wrong if you buy it!.......2007-07-13

This is a very useful guide. This book is a collection of foods, supplements, and herbs/spices that Ann Gittleman considers her top fat "flushers." She gives you some background on the item; what the fat flush factors are (Blood Sugar Stabilizer; Cholesterol Zapper; Detoxifier; Diuretic; Energizer; Thermogenic); recommended usage; facts about the item; how to boost the benefits; cooking tips; caution tips. The herb/spices section has been very helpful to me. I know very little about seasoning dishes. Ann Gittleman has helped me a great deal in this department by compiling all this information into a handy guide made especially for fat flushers. You'll find it full of valuable information to help you prepare better meals which in turn helps you to lose weight and keep it off. You can't go wrong if you buy it!

5 out of 5 stars Great Reference Book!.......2007-06-22

I am glad I ordered this book. I refer to it each week to plan my meals. It makes it much easier to stay on a healthy eating track.

Book Description

In this revised edition of his best-selling book, formerly The Amazing Liver Cleanse, Andreas Moritz addresses the most common but rarely recognized cause of illness - gallstones congesting the liver. Twenty million Americans suffer from attacks of gallstones every year. In many cases, treatment merely consists of removing the gallbladder, at the cost of $5 billion a year. But this purely symptom-oriented approach does not eliminate the cause of the illness, and in many cases, sets the stage for even more serious conditions. Most adults living in the industrialized world, and especially those suffering a chronic illness such as heart disease, arthritis, MS, cancer, or diabetes, have hundreds if not thousands of gallstones (mainly clumps of hardened bile) blocking the bile ducts of their liver. This book provides a thorough understanding of what causes gallstones in the liver and gallbladder and why these stones can be held responsible for the most common diseases so prevalent in the world today. It provides the reader with the knowledge needed to recognize the stones and gives the necessary, do-it-yourself instructions to painlessly remove them in the comfort of one's home. It also gives practical guidelines on how to prevent new gallstones from being formed. The widespread success of The Amazing Liver & Gallbladder Flush is a testimony to the power and effectiveness of the cleanse itself. The liver cleanse has led to extraordinary improvements in health and wellness among thousands of people who have already given themselves the precious gift of a strong, clean, revitalized liver. Andreas Moritz is a Medical Intuitive and practitioner of Ayurveda, Iridology, Shiatsu and Vibrational Medicine. Author of The Amazing Liver & Gallbladder Flush, Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation, Lifting the Veil of Duality and It's Time to Come Alive. Founder of the innovative healing systems, Ener-Chi Art and Sacred Santèmony - Divine Chanting for Every Occasion.

5 out of 5 stars THE answer to todays' ill health.......2007-08-06

This book is the most comprehensive I have found on the liver flush. Andreas explains in well-researched terms, our modern day illnesses and how they relate to our 'sick livers'. Our liver has been forgotten in our quest for wellness, and Andreas writes again and again on it being the most important organ in our body, and thus how important it is to keep it clean. The liver flush is so simple yet so effective. I believe it is the answer to many or all of our modern day illnesses. As a registered nurse working 20 years in emergency departments, I have witnessed the other side of what happens when we ignore our liver: such unnecessary interventions, surgery, drugs, etc. This book is now one of my main reference books.

5 out of 5 stars !!!FASCINATING!!!.......2007-04-12

Andreas Moritz never fails to hold my interest. i have another one of his books that is also fantastic. this book is very helpful and the flush really works!!! if you want to feel better and improve your health than you NEED to read this book!!!

5 out of 5 stars The secret of all times.......2007-03-22

I am on my fourth flush. Wow I can not sing the praises of this book enough. Thirty two years of liver pain from parasites going into my liver and leaving a calcified cyst. Now No pain. None Zero. I think of all the people lined up for liver tranplants.

Here is what is more amazing. I had come to conclusion that most people can lose weight not from genetcs but something simple like the gallbaldde needs to be flushed or removed. So I followed the book and I did clean the gallbladder to help me possibly lose wieght. Well, I am going toward a natural balance in my weight by already losing ten pounds. Without the starvation diets.

Sinus problems and allergies GONE Pain left knee GONE Hurtful liver pain GONE. Lower back pain GONE Need for endless coffee and tea GONE I also have all this natural energy.

High choleserol Gone Sugar levels from diabetes from 235 to 92.

I was unprepared for this.

5 out of 5 stars Why I Chose This Book.......2007-01-14

The author is honest, straight-forward, thorough, and knowledgeable in this field. I believe that religiously following his recommendations and instructions would be far more rewarding and much less expensive than blindly accepting the dreaded alternatives.

5 out of 5 stars 30 years worth of Gallstones Info .......2006-12-30

This book is written so well that I was able to understand the concept of how gallstones impact the body without being bogged down with a medical dictionary. This book does not waste time on providing indicators on whether you have gallstones on page six there is a natural non-invasive way to determine whether you have stones are not just by viewing the color of your stool.

This book is rich with information,for instance, Chapter 1 conveys the role that gallstones play in certain disorders as well as diseases. Chapter 2 offers a comprehensive guide on determining whether you have stones using the skin, nose, eyes, the tongue, mouth, lips and teeth, hands, nails and feet. Chapter 5 provides guidelines on avoiding gallstones.

The author offers his own experience with a gallbladder attack and how the recipes in the book are what "he considers the most effective". I have read this book about 10 months ago and still I am too chicken to try the flush. I purchased the liquid form of a herb mentioned in the book for apple juice intolerance. And will use this product to dissolve stones as mentioned in the vendor's website from Canada. This will take a year so the flush by all means will be the fastest way to get rid of the stones if you have them.

4 out of 5 stars Good to start, hard to sustain.......2007-10-01

I give this book kudos for pointing out how harmful many of the toxins we regularly eat and drink are, and for suggesting avoiding artificial sweeteners. Pointing out that it's best to eat low glycemic carbs is good, but overall, this diet is unsustainable for the long haul. Especially if you have a family. The book itself is worthwhile for the information on detoxing, but then the "typical" consumer is going to have to tailor, significantly, in order to make it work.

5 out of 5 stars Great help for detox.......2007-04-01

Chock-full of delicious recipes, this book will be a great help if you want to detox or lose weight.

4 out of 5 stars Cooking for flushers.........2007-03-29

Fat flush food isn't exactly what I would call 5 star food. The cookbook is a must if you plan to follow the plan for any period of time or plan to be feeding any non-fat flushers.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome book .......2007-01-18

This book is chalked full of recipes that help to create and maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is the best companion book to the The Fat Flush Plan book. I highly recommend it. I haven't even had time to try all the delicious recipes yet--there are so many. I will be eating some thing new every day for a long time.

3 out of 5 stars The Fat Flush Cookbook.......2007-01-11

Good ideas, but a lot of the ingredients are not available in my area.

Book Description

You know it’s going to be a rough summer when you spend Father’s Day visiting your dad in the local lockup.
Noah’s dad is sure that the owner of the Coral Queen casino boat is flushing raw sewage into the harbor–which has made taking a dip at the local beach like swimming in a toilet. He can’t prove it though, and so he decides that sinking the boat will make an effective statement. Right. The boat is pumped out and back in business within days and Noah’s dad is stuck in the clink.
Now Noah is determined to succeed where his dad failed. He will prove that the Coral Queen is dumping illegally . . . somehow. His allies may not add up to much–his sister Abbey, an unreformed childhood biter; Lice Peeking, a greedy sot with poor hygiene; Shelly, a bartender and a woman scorned; and a mysterious pirate–but Noah’s got a plan to flush this crook out into the open. A plan that should sink the crooked little casino, once and for all.

Flush
By Carl Hiaasen
Mystery

Flush is about a 13 year old boy named Noah, whose dad has just gotten arrested from sinking a gambling ship, and putting it out of business. Dusty Muleman, the owner, wants him to go to an anger management class. But Noah doesn't believe his dad is crazy. What could have really happened. Noah's dad accused him of dumping the boat's sewage into the ocean, but can Noah and his 11 year old sister Abbey prove what really happened.
Flush relates to my life, because I have a sister, but her name isn't Abbey, who is cool sometimes, but sometimes she just gets on my nerves. My dad is also kind of crazy, but he wouldn't sink a ship would he?
Carl Hiaasen's writing is amazing, because you never get left behind. You are right alongside the hero of the story the whole time.
I loved this book, but the reason I only gave it 4 stars is because I thought the story was kind of weird. Weird but believable.
I can't exactly recall any books that relate to Flush, it's one of a kind.

4 out of 5 stars Good Book!.......2007-07-28

This book is about a boy named Noah who's dad sunk a man's casino boat for dumping raw sewage into the ocean and is now in jail. The only way to get his dad out of jail is to prove that his dad is right. This book is great for all ages, it has action and humor, I think this book is a good read for everyone!

5 out of 5 stars Flush Book Review.......2007-06-02

Flush is about a teenage boy, Noah, who tries to save the environment, by following his dad's footsteps. The story begins with Noah's dad in jail accused of sinking a casino boat after realizing that the owner of the boat had been dumping sewage waste into the water ruining the water quality and habitat of turtles and fish. Noah and his sister then try to explain their dad's action by trying to document and find evidence of the dumping.
I think Flush is a fascinating book. The characters have unique and interesting personalities. I especially like Noah's courage and his dedication to helping his family and to protect the environment. I recommend Flush to anyone who is concerned with saving the environment.

4 out of 5 stars This was a good book but not a Super Book.......2007-06-01

I thought Flush wush was a good story, but not a good as the Tommytown series that I just finished reading. In Tommytown the boys, Barry, Noah and Petey acted like 11 and 12 year olds. Their sister Karen also seemed like a real 14 year old. Even being poor didn't stop the boys from having fun and the story was very exciting. Tommytown and The Boys From Tommytown are Super books. (I actually inserted a book. WOw.Hope I did it right.) Please read them you won't be sorry! Have a great summer!

5 out of 5 stars Grandpa and Granddaughter Recommended!.......2007-05-31

There aren't many books that can appeal to both a grandfather and granddaughter, without leaving one or both of them feeling just a little shortchanged. Flush is that very, very rare exception!

Carl Hiassen has mixed in his usual elements into a froth that's appropriate for youths, but remains equally appealing to adults. There's a comic bad guy who values profit over quality of life (in this case the owner of a floating casino); a few witless thugs (both adult and kid-sized) and a man with anger management issues (a little reminiscent of the guy in Sick Puppy). But the heart of the story rests with the narrator, Noah and his little sister Abbey, two kids that share their dad's love for the Florida Keys.

Noah's dad has already tried to stop the Coral Queen casino boat from dumping raw sewage into water around the Keys, by sinking it. Unfortunately, the efforts of the local sheriff have restricted his ability to follow through once the boat is raised and reopened within a week. That leaves Noah and Abbey to find a way to shut down the boat, and clear their dad before their mom loses her patience and leaves him. But how do you prove that a specific boat is the source of foul bacteria and worse, especially when there's rat in the Coast Guard office that tips off the boat's operator whenever they are about to pop a surprise inspection?

It helps if you're resourceful and don't mind riding your bike everywhere. It also helps if you befriend a semi-rough blonde with a barb wire tattoo, and can stay clear of the boat owner's bully of a son.

I bought this book for my 10 year old granddaughter and she loved it! Then I read it and loved it. Within a month or so I suspect that everyone in the family will have finished it, with similar results.

4 out of 5 stars A Handy Tool.......2007-07-13

This is a journal in which you write your thoughts for the day; what you ate; what exercises you did, etc. From the beginning, I wasn't interested in the shopping guide. To me, that isn't the important part of the book. I've been using this journal since January 2007. I get about 6 weeks in one book. I'm on my fourth. I find this to be a healthy tool. Every day I record what I have eaten; my exercise routine; any problems with my health; my thoughts on how I did for the day. I end my journaling on a positive note. I always find something good that I did for the day, even if I totally screwed up. There is always something positive that you can find. The journal helps me to focus on those positives. Each day starts with a positive quote from a well-known person for motivation. Then there's a weekly journal page for you to record your measurements and your thoughts on how you did for the week. Helps you to plan goals and rewards. The price for this book is really low. I've taken a look at a couple of other journals (Stong Women has one), and they are around $15. So, this is a bargain. I give it four stars because I didn't need the shopping guide, and would have liked to have used them for journal pages instead. I would recommed purchasing this book to help you achieve your weight loss goals.

1 out of 5 stars The Fat Flush Journal and Shopping Guide.......2006-03-22

Nothing great about this book. Follows the same patterns as many others I have read. Simple common sence guidelines but nothing amazing or new to the readers.

1 out of 5 stars mostly blank pages.......2006-03-01

Be aware that "journal" means lots of blank pages. Not much of a bargain for all that space. Could just as well have been a pamphlet!

2 out of 5 stars Journal part OK, Shopping Guide is a joke.......2005-09-10

The journal content is good, but the book is a typically-bound softcover which does not lend well to journaling (spiral-bound books which lay open flat or fold back are much better). The biggest disappointment was the Shopping Guide section which, according to the front of the book, "features shopping lists for fat-flushing foods". They are merely bulleted lists of foods used in each phase of the plan, grouped by category (vegetables, proteins, etc.) It would have been more helpful to have actual shopping lists by week, based on the plan menus.

5 out of 5 stars Great guidance.......2005-07-20

This book is a wonderful companion to the Fat Flush Plan. It helps organize every meal and snack, allowing you to follow the Fat Flush Plan more easily.

The Fat Flush Fitness Plan, written by a powerhouse team, offers Joanie Greggains' detailed exercise program, designed to complement Ann Louise Gittleman's The Fat Flush Plan. Gittleman is a high-profile nutritionist, frequently featured in the media. Veteran fitness expert Greggains, author of Fit Happens, hosted television's long-running "Morning Stretch" and leads 15 workout videos. Greggains emphasizes low-impact aerobics, weight training, stretching, more sleep, and calmer living. The eating program (you'll need Gittleman's other books for the details) hinges on Gittleman's premise that "cleansing the liver and the lymphatic system is absolutely crucial for physical health, weight loss, and an overall sense of well-being." This isn't a quick-fix program, but a long-term, lifestyle change including yoga, walking or rebounding, strength training with a weighted ball, stretching, lymphatic massage, and aromatherapy baths. Start with Phase 1: "Detox, Start Moving--and Relax"; add strength training in Phase 2: "Build Lean Muscle Mass"; increase cardio and change the strength routine in Phase 3: "Lymph-Fit/Compound Strength and Stretching Plan." All phases present a step-by-step, clearly illustrated exercise program. The book is nicely designed, with clear photographs, boxed tips, write-in questionnaires, pledges, and a sample journal. --Joan Price
