Book Reviews of Slim for Life

Book Review: If you like to cook...
Summary: 4 Stars

This book not only brings awareness to the garbage you consume in a week, but will hone your skills as a cook. If you are someone who does not like to cook-or has no spare time, this book is not for you. All of the recipes are not very specific with times and temperatures-so you have to familiar with various cooking times for different foods. For example-in one of the recipes Dr. McKeath says to pop a sweet potato in the oven while you're preparing a salad. How long and what temp. are never included. Unless you're familiar with baking potatoes, how would you know what to do? Also, the measurements can be tricky. In the U.S., we don't typically measure ingredients by weight-unless you're a pastry chef-I don't think many people reading this book are. Do you know what 2 1/2 oz. of lentils looks like? I don't, but I guestimate. I think it's a little over a 1/4 cup. All that said, the food definitely increases energy, and has has made me less moody.(After the chocolate cravings stopped). The smoothies are fantastic, too. If you like to cook, this book is for you. It exposed me to new methods of cooking, and new ingredients. It really made me take a good look at my eating lifestyle and changed it for the better.
