Quick and easy read.  I have read numerous diet books and nutritional publications but I think this book offers something special. The format lends itself to a quick and easy read, while supplying up to date information in a very motivational fashion. I especially liked the chapter on fiber, which is one of the most neglected areas not just for weight management but of overall well-being. Loved the book! And the weekly scorecard is a plus!
