Too much fiber one in recipes-Not suited for families
and too many processed ingredients- Sugar free & fat- free foods are not really healthy
 Sugar Free can lead to Weight Gain November 20, 2009

I was looking forward to getting some low calorie recipes until I realized that the majority of the recipes in this book use fake foods. If you do any research or simply google it you will find that sugar substitutes can actually lead to weight gain!! I used to loooove diet coke and splenda so all of this came as very bad news to me! Do some research and take care of your body!
 Changed My Life! November 19, 2009
Ela Rose (Los Alamos, NM)
I always look to the reviews here at Amazon to help me with decisions on purchasing items. I've never written one, though, but my experience with this book begs me to make an exception.
I purchased this book back in July, to add to my thousands of diet cookbooks in the hopes it would help me lose weight and eat better. I have since lost 40 lbs. and I couldn't be happier! I thought that it would be almost impossible to lose weight, I know that it gets harder as you get older (I'll be 40 next year). Quite honestly, cheese was one of my main food groups and I have no will power. I started slow, trying to eat one meal a day from this book and I realized that these recipes could not be simpler to make and they were surprisingly delicious! I honestly thought that it would take a lot of effort to change my eating habits but once I found out how reliably good and simple these were, all of the effort of my diet vanished. I eat MANY times a day and not one meal is over 200 calories, but I am never hungry or feeling like I am deprived of anything. This book has it all. Breakfast, snacks, smoothies, dessert, dinner. You name it, you can still have it and it's delicious.
When I first read through it, I was definitely more than a bit apprehensive. The section on cooking with Fiber One comes to mind. When I saw the recipe for cheese sticks with low-fat string cheese and fiber one crust...well let's just say I never envisioned myself making one of my favorite guilty pleasures with cereal. But I tried it and the real thing just tastes greasy and heavy now. The recipe was so awesome I decided to see if I could apply it to making Poppers for my boyfriend. Now he won't eat them if I don't make them, and it's a low-call, low-fat, baked, healthy treat. He's not on a diet himself, but because of the things that I learned, and the behaviors that I have adapted from this book he's also benefiting. And couldn't be happier to see his girl in her new size 5 jeans (I was a size 14).
All I can say is that I've subscribed to the Hungry Girl newsletter and I'm back to buy the rest of her books to expand our menu at home.
I'm sorry to go on so long and be so gushy with my praise, but I really can't tell you enough, how much this book changed my life.
Get this book. And I hope you enjoy the success that I have had the pleasure of having.
Great book November 17, 2009

Everything I've made from this book is so delicious, I forget it's not entirely bad for you!
Loving Cookbooks November 14, 2009

Have glanced over this book and know I'm going to love it and get many uses from it. We are both trying to get some weight off and this 200 calorie idea will be great! Most diet recipes (Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, etc) are based on about 200 calories so I think this will be a real help and the recipes sound so delicious.
