4 Stars real shapes real sizes
I think this book had a lot of good information in it but I wish that it had more examples of food menues.
2 Stars Watch out if you have other Jorge’s books
This book and Jorge’s 8 “Minutes in the Morning for Extra-Easy Weight Loss” are almost word-for-word the same book! Not real impressive that an author would do this, not to mention a publisher (Harper Collins). I already had the “8 Minute” book and thought this would be a great addition. I was very dissapointed…
1 Star about food, not exercise.
even if you are under a time constraint, if you have beem exercising for a while this book will do nothing for you. I must admit I haven’t even tried the book exercises in the book even once, but I knew that doing the exercises in the book, would not make me feel as though I’ve exercised. If you don’t have time to exercise, but you do exercise regularly, and want to get your heart rate up, get the 8 minute tae bo workout.
For obese people, or someone who likes to stretch and take it really easy, this book is for you. But its more to do with eating, that actual exercising.
3 Stars very basic, but good food plan
I need to lose 40 pounds so I ordered 3 Hour Diet and this book. The other book was good for me. This one is for someone who has never exercised and doesn’t really want to exercise and just wants guidelines on how to eat. It does have high quality laminated, plasticky pages, (not newsprint) and that was nice. You can almost use it as a coffee table book. It also goes on endlessly about getting a support system of phone call friends, email friends, and just friends period to alert that you are undergoing this new plan and need help. I, for one can’t do that, so I knew this was not the book for me. I was lucky to get my husband to not roll his eyes when he saw I was yet again trying something new.
3 Stars Not bad, but not for me.
If you are completely desperate and need something really basic to follow, this is a good book. I’m overweight but these exercises were just too easy and I didn’t feel challenged enough. I opted to start weight watchers and use some exercise videos instead. I did enjoy the book and it is very motivational if you want to start fresh.
