Book Reviews of The Fat Flush Plan
Book Review: Complete Lifestyle Changes!
Summary: 5 Stars
Anyone even considering the Fat Flush Plan needs to not miss out on Ann Louise Gittleman's advise. Through the paths this plan takes you through you will notice remarkable results and complete lifestyle changes. The Fat Flush Plan isn't just a diet, it's a lifestyle. The Fat Flush Fitness Plan is a great companion, as well as the cookbook, and Shopping Guide. All must haves.
Ms. Gittleman personally take an interest in those on her plan and you are able to get her support and guidance. The plan easily guides you with specific reasons why. So many times in diet plans, you never understand the whys? That isn't the case with Ms. Gittleman's products.
If you are looking for a quick fix plan, this isn't you. You need to be committed to making those changes that so many other plans don't follow. After years of being taught to watch calories and fat-free dieting, this approach is completely different.
If you have been diagnosed needing a Gluten-Free diet, this is a great resource as well. This plan has great choices for gluten-free living and should be a must for anyone newly diagnosed, suspecting a gluten intolerance, or even having lived gluten free for years.
Book Review: Complicated at first...but worth it!!! I lost 50 lbs in 2 months!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I started the plan 2 months ago after watching two of my friends loose weight and transform their lives on the Fat Flush Plan. I had to read the book 3 times before jumping off the cliff to become a healthier me. I found the text to be complicated to understand...having mentors helped a lot. I recommend going to the FAT FLUSH website and buying the start up kit from her (cheaper than Whole Foods) and finding someone whom has done the plan go shopping the first time with you. Unlike my friends whom had 10-30 lbs to loose, I am (or was) morbid obese. I've got a long way to go....but, 50 lbs in 2 months.....Woah!....I feel great! Went from a size 26 to size 18 in 2 months and the pounds & inches are still melting away. Did I mention my skin....clear and soft as a babys bottom. I may be heavy....but I no longer have cellulite on thia body. Great side effect....don't you think!!!
THANK YOU Louise Gettleman, you are my hero!
Book Review: Complicated, A lot of work, and Time Consuming but you do lose
Summary: 3 Stars
I have been on this diet when things really get out of whack for me. I hate going on it because it is very complicated. Too much food preparation and taking time out of the day to eat and drink. Difficult for going to work everyday or people who have any sort of active lives. I have to work my schedule around it trying to work from home rather than going into the office. With all that said I do get the results. But I wonder if I followed any other diet with the same calorie count in this fashion would I get the results. Don't know because I am not really a dieter. I have also done this for a detox thing. I think it all works, but I have to say I am always irritable when I am on this. So you can decide for yourself. I think if you just want a diet, try something else that is easier to execute.Book Review: DESPERATE TO LOSE WEIGHT
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is not enough at all. May be because while i am desperate to lose as much weight as possible, I knew more even than what is in the book. But, I believe it contains valuable info.Book Review: Diabetes and Cholesterol Relief At Last
Summary: 5 Stars
When I read TFFP 11 months ago, I had suffered diabetes for 15 years. Over the years I progressed from a solution consisting of diet and exercise to the use of diabetic medications and then eventually to also taking insulin. I became insulin resistant and developed Syndrome X. For several years I was daily giving myself 100 units of insulin perday and taking 2 tablets of Glucophage and 2 of Avandia to achieve some control. My last A1C test was 9.7.My cholesterol had been 266. I was on Baycol for 12 months when it was taken off the market last August. My doctor then prescribed other statins which caused severe pain in my legs and chest and also did not control my cholesterol readings.
My wife and I read the Fat Flush Plan book on a Sunday afternoon. We went to the supermarket Sunday evening, and started the Plan Monday morning, Feb. 25th, in earnest. Tuesday morning my glucometer readings were low so I cut the doses in half. On Wednesday morning my readings had again dropped lower and I discontinued the insulin and medications. I have had absolutely no medications or insulin since February 27th. My April 6th lab showed my cholesterol to be 166. The HDL's were up and LDL's were down. My total cholesterol has been getting lower ever since. My A1C is down to 5.5.
I have always been overweight. For 30 years I have weighed between 250-300#. Taking insulin added about 50# to my weight. When I began on Feb. 25th, I weighed 352#, I guess. I say "guess" because my doctor's scale only went to 350# and my weight was off to the right of the end of the scale. My wife Joan weighed 253#. I wore size 60 pants and XXXL shirts comfortably. Joan was wearing XXL pants and tops. I am now 230# and wear size 40 pants and size 16 shirts. Joan is 160# and is wearing Medium size pants and tops.
Over the past 10 years, I had developed a severe hiatic hernia. I had a lot of acid reflex at night and had been taking Aciphex for several years for this condition. After about a month, I discontinued Aciphex and have not been bothered with it since.
I have had sleep apnia for 17 years. I had my uvula removed in 1987 and have been using a CPAP machine since 1996. On Feb. 25th I was using 16# of air pressure. I was tested again this last December and they reduced my pressure to 6#.
My wife is a nurse and she used to come home literally in tears with the arthritis and pain in her legs from walking and standing. Now she comes home even after a 10-hour shift tired, but not in pain. She also no longer suffers from extreme pain in her thumbs and arms.
And these are just the obvious benefits of the return of health my wife and I have experienced since we began the Fat Flush Plan. We had to be willing to change our life, but we happily embrace every aspect of the Plan. This is the Plan we are on for life. From the Sunday we read the book, we felt this was a healthy plan. It is a life filled with fresh fruits vegetables, nuts and oils. It's hard to go wrong with that.
Thank you, Ann Louise, for setting our feet on this path.
