Eat This Not ThatNovember 20, 2008 Eat This, Not That! Thousands of Simple Food Swaps that Can Save You 10, 20, 30 Pounds--or More!
This is a great, entertaining book. Although I do not think that following its advice will help you lose weight, it will make you stop and think before your order at your favorite chain restaurant. My entire family enjoyed thumbing through it.
Eat This Not ThatNovember 18, 2008 A lot of good information it stays in the kitchen for the entire family to use. Not only was I glad the way everyone started to use it I found that when we had guests over they would pick it up and begin to glance through it.The picture quality is great and the way the book is divided into sections make it easy to use.
Just Buy the Calorie King Book!November 18, 2008 Yes this book does tell you witch item to pick... but what if i'm at applebees and the book says to eat the spicy tilapia but I can't eat spicy food? The last review is correct, the counts they have for some items neglect ingredients that come with or fail to mention if they've actually even included the sides in the calorie count. Or they'll claim an item is better than another bc it has more protein but not say how much.
The calorie king book is much smaller... around 4 x 6 so it's almost half the size of "eat this, not that" and lists almost all items on the menu for a restaurant. You can actually stick this in your jeans pocket. It's also cheaper. 2008 CalorieKing Calorie, Fat & Carbohydrate Counter (Calorie King)
Eye OpeningNovember 17, 2008 I wanted to offer some help to my young son, who rarely cooks for himself. This book exceeded my hopes. He was immediately drawn to the cover and picked it up at my house and carried it off without my having to go through one of those "oh, Mom"...moments. He read excerpts to me all through lunch, and I have to say I was shocked at some of the information we found there. I hope it will help him in his eating habits. I know it will help me. I'd say this is an essential book for any parent whose kids are eating fast food...if you can't get them to stop, you can at least teach them to be more choosy.
Eat this not thatNovember 17, 2008 This book had a lot of good information. Things I never thought of. I was diagnosed with the onset of type Diabetes 2 back in April. This book really allowed me to see what I shouldn't be eating. It has helped me in changing my eating habits. I recommend this book to anyone has health problems, or just want to stay healthy.
