I really enjoyed this book. I read the book within one week, flagging important tidbits, and realized I had a lot of post-its! The first two weeks you're only doing the diet part. If you want to do the exercises, that's okay but it's not mandatory. Very relaxing exercises. I mean, I walk up to five miles per day so starting a weight program was okay with me. Limited information for pregnant or menopausal women. I liked the pictures for the exercises. The only problem I had was with the photos for the mothers. Why not use photos with a (very) pregnant model? I think it would help with positioning. If you're going to use a slim model, it's not beneficial. Just my opnion. I also liked the recipes. Very easy to make and not at all time-consuming. The smoothie secret is nothing new. I learned from Weight Watchers (old-school) to make skim milk smoothies with ice, one banana, and a dash of vanilla. Fills you up and tastes decadent!

It's hard to do the exercises from a book, so I bought the workout DVD and I love it! It's a fantastic book!

FYI - This book is in great shape but its missing the plastic green sleeve. The Hardcover is in good shape.
