Karen's Book Nook

Since I’m a Prevention Magazine reader and the Flat Belly Diet by Liz Vaccareillo and Cynthia Sass is one of theirs, I figured I’d check it out and see what the hype is about. I’m not really  a “diet” type but I do like to read various diet and nutrition books.

From the Jacket: Sixty-seven percent of Americans say the belly is the body part they most want to change. Health-wise, belly fat is the most important kind to lose– because it’s the most deadly. Even small amounts of excess belly fat can significantly up your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and certain kinds of cancers.

Currently reading The Biggest Loser by Maggie Greenwood-Robinson, the stories of the contestants from the first two seasons of my favorite show.  Also contains exercise and diet tips following the principles used on the ranch.

I’ll usually pick up any book about diet and exercise that catches my eye and Make Over Your Metabolism by Robert Reames was no different. I spotted it in the new book section at the library and I’m reading a little bit each night before turning out the light. So far, lots of what I’m reading mirrors other things that I’ve read but I’m sure I’ll get something new from this one before I’m finished. Even if I pick up a couple of tips it will be worth it.
