Helpful Score: 3
This book is part memoir, part cookbook, and part healthy eating advice. I enjoyed the book for several reasons:
1. The conversational tone that comes from the blogging start of this book. The book does not preach or dictate. The author's approach is that this is what works for me. Maybe it'll work for you.
2. The "realness" of the book. I can well picture myself in some of the situations described.
3. The common sense approach. What works - the keys to healthy living - are planning, consistency, and balance. There is no quick fix. There are no taboos.
4. The ideas are not new, but the book is a nice, easy to read reminder of the ideas.
I have not read the author's blog but I will now. I have not yet tried any of the recipes, but I will try and update the review as I do.
