 Get It- and Be the Biggest Winner |
| Review Date: June 1, 2008 |
| Reviewer: trainer03, |
The first 27 pages of this book consist of "tips" for losing weight. This includes things such as:
-the Biggest Loser diet in a nutshell
-how to keep a food journal
-how to read labels
-a section where the Biggest Losers from the show share their favorite foods in various categories such as "their top 20 low cal foods", "their top 20 evening snacks", or "their top 20 low cal desserts."
Then comes the part you likely got the book for: the calorie counter. HOWEVER, this is not simply a book that gives you ONLY the amount of calories in a food item, no, The Biggest Loser Calorie Counter: The Quick and Easy Guide to Thousands of Foods from Grocery Stores and Popular Restaurants--As Seen on NBC's Hit Show! also gives you the amount of protein, carbs, fiber, sugar, fat, saturated fat, and sodium (which is really good for those with heart or blood pressure issues) in a food item. Know too that in this particular calorie counter, food items are arranged in alphabetical order by "groups" such as "beverages" "desserts" or "pasta".
The book ends with a "dining out" section, which is where you can find info on foods in your favorite restaurants- well, maybe not ALL your favorite restaurants, but a lot of them. Also need to mention that the book can fit in an average-sized purse so you can take it along when eating out (if you're a guy, you'll just have to tote it around).
A very well-organized and handy book that should help many dieters on their quest for a healthier body, I give it 5 stars easy. Overweight people suffering from plantar fasciitis might also be interested in The 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution.

| Although I didn't win any big prize as NH's Representative for The Biggest Loser 3, I was one of 9 people from the 36 sent home to lose over 100lbs. I can't say enough how Cherly Forberg's books, counsel and input had a dramatic impact on my success. Not only were her materials easy to work with, but they were dead on when it came to losing lots of weight consistently. Most importantly, I was never hungry following her rules. If you don't do anything else to lose weight, you must exercise and use this guide on your way to a healthier life style. |
Jaron Tate, 160 lbs by counting calories. thanks Cheryl!

| This book is an essential if you are serious about making a long term change in your eating habits. Losing weight is not rocket science. It takes a decision and then 3rd grade math. Calories in, calories out. Cheryl does an awsome job of making it as simple as possible to keep tabs on what is going into your pie hole! I highly recommend anything written by cheryl to people who are motivated to get into shape!. Thanks lady. |
THIS IS FABULOUS

| I absolutely love this calorie counter. It gives you the calories in everyday foods you get at the grocery store, plus, it gives you calorie counts for fast food restaurants. It gives you the calories for things you should eat at these restaurants and a few examples of things you should definitely stay away from. They're obvious because they're so many more calories than the others listed. I carry it in my purse so that I have it whenever. |
Nice Book To Start With

| This is a nice book to start with if monitoring calories, carbs, fat, sodium etc. It has so many foods, condiments, resturants, drinks listed. I have used mine everyday since I purchased it. It is also small enough to carry to work or resturants. |

| There are a lot of weight loss books in the world today that help millions of people. But, have those people kept the weight off, did they get discouraged and bought a different book, then tried a different program, buying into the many weight-loss products, pills, shakes, etc. I was that person until I met Cheryl and tried this book. Cheryl's book IS different than the others, it is the simple, most common sense approach to dieting I have ever used. This is the best book I have found on calorie counting. After you read the first 25 pages you will see what I mean. Thank you Cheryl for your friendship and guidance. -Mark from BL3 Montana / Turtle Club |

| Reviewer: P. Kramer, NJ |
| People are constantly asking me how I lost 117 lbs at home without the help of a trainer. To be honest, it was less about the workout (picking up a remote for a woman who is 232 lbs is EXERCISE) and more about my food choices. This calorie counter not only is a great guide, but outlines the entire diet that the 36 people at home used! *If you didn't watch season three of The Biggest Loser, these people were asked to lose weight at home on their own. Cheryl Forberg has helped thousands of people not only lose weight, but find a way to do it WITHOUT hunger or feelings of deprivation! If you are ready to lose weight the CORRECT way and KEEP it off, BUY THIS BOOK!!! It was my bible while I lost 117 lbs. -Poppi Kramer (at home winner of TBL season 3) |

| Reviewer: Matthew McNutt, Maine |
| I've used several different calorie counters over the last year; it's been the key to the 176 pounds I lost in about eight months (and exercise). In all honesty, this calorie counter was by far the most thorough, giving far more categories of information on each of the foods listed. I found that to be the most helpful - the more you know about what you're eating, the better your choices are going to be. This is the calorie counter I recommend to people when they ask me! |
Complete & helpful!!!

The Biggest Loser Calorie Counter book has been very helpful to me. I'm not always dieting but do like to know how many calories I am taking in. This book has every calorie for all kinds of foods plus lots more.
