Customer Reviews

FANTASTIC!
My husband was recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and our nurse encouraged us to get this book to help with understanding what were acceptable "choices". WOW! This book is terrific, it includes information on carbs (our eating method as of a 1 month ago) and has all sorts of restaurant information as well as common and not so common foods... Anyway, I recommend this book for anyone... It's reasonably priced, so I'd get one to put in your cars and in your office and home so you can always have one handy.

excellent resource
Great book to help you keep track of those calories. I live in Sacramento and recently joined Mama Bootcamp Body by Code and her program requires that we keep track of calories. Being the complete idiot that I am when it comes to calories, I quickly bought this book and it has helped a lot. There are a lot of items listed which is very helpful for people like myself who know nothing about calories :) I'm losing fat and feeling great thanks to Mama Bootcamp and my wonderful Calorie counting book. I love it!!!! Highly recommend!
