Rating: - Best diet book out there : Totally life-changing
No other book that I have ever read has had such an affect on my life. I have tried every single diet there is going to try to loose weight and have had absolutely no success. I was about to give up and accept that I would be over-weight forever, when I heard about Marisa's book. I read it in one-sitting and have never looked back. I have now lost four stone and have never felt so happy and energetic. Marisa's programme has transformed my relationship with food, this really works and I would recommend everybody to read it.

Rating: - I love the new me Xx
This book has changed my life from being a frumpy fat and forty size 24. I would become easily out of breath and anxious because my heart would race. I hated clothes shops.Attempting to find something I liked in my size would make me weep and panic.Since buying this book a couple of months ago I have slimmed 30lbs, I am now a size 18 or 20. I used to avoid the swimming pool, now I take my beautiful daughter swimming and wear my new black halter neck. In the past I found the old me was able to diet during the day then I would binge late at night on buttery toast and cheese, because I was STARVING it was ludicrous. My stomach used to feel really bloated and acidic and I would make massive cheese sandwiches to neutralise the acid. To my surprise when I modelled myself on Marisa's eating patterns I no longer had hunger pains or bloat. I removed dairy and wheat from my diet and a phenomenal change occurred.There was no more stomach pain. Plus I seem to have all this energy. I used to ache and needed to force myself to go out and play with the children. I would sit down because I was tired and drained. I did wonder if I had 'ME'. The dog never got walked. I asked the doctor for a thyroid function test which came back negative. Then a really good friend bought me this book. I listen to it on long car journeys and it started to make sense. Marisa struck a cord with me. I could see where she was coming from and I started to agree. At first giving up dairy and gluten was a struggle I loved cappuccino and buttery toast. Yet when all the pain went in my tummy I sensed an inner peace and I was becoming slimmer. I know I can be slim for the rest of my life. I have 2 fridges now, one for family and friends and the other for me, packed full of fruit and vegetables. I can eat as much as I like so I do not feel restricted and eating eggs helps satisfy my appetite enormously. I found this book was well researched and I love her voice. To me she came across as warm caring and enjoyed fixing peoples problems. I personally found it a great advantage to gain all Marisa's professional advice and wisdom on this audio book. I feel blessed this has happened to me because there is no way I could afford a therapist like her.This book has improved my life improved my self esteem and I believe made me a better mother.

Rating: - Honestly life changing
I bought this book in mid-March of this year, based on three things. Firstly, I saw the segment about Marisa on Supersize vs. Superskinny, secondly I read an article in Elle magazine where the reporter found it very successful and thirdly based on the strength of the reviews here on Amazon. Being a natural cynic, I wasn't very convinced that it would work and before i read it I actually didn't want to not want chocolate anymore (although now i've read it i know why that was!It was just the sugar high and comfort i sourced in sweet, sugary things especially that i craved, not actual chocolate itself). However when the book arrived I took a weekend to read and absorb it and do the exercises and begin listening to the cd. Within a month I was feeling SO MUCH better: i was no longer bingeing on stodge, wheat, dairy and sugar now didn't feature in my diet and i was actually in control of what i ate and how much of it. I have honestly not missed pastries, cereals, milk, cheese, sugary sweets, cake etc. as I no longer see them as a food option when i see them. I have attended birthday parties where it has just been so easy to (politely) refuse cake and biscuits in favour of a fruit salad and i don't feel akward doing so. I am now 2 1/2 stone lighter, with only 1/2 a stone left which i KNOW will go forever! :]
Starting out as someone with a relatively small amount of weight to drop in the first place, compared to others who start with BMIs that put them in the very overweight or obese catagory, i am so pleased that i found this as it has given me the self confidence and motivation to do something about my weight before it ever spiralled out of control
I would recommend this book to anybody with weight issues or food or eating problems without a second thought! I am so grateful i found it when i did, and i will update when i reach my body's ideal weight range!
