Title: author claims "diets don't work", yet consumed 800 calories a day for 8 months
Review: This story has some inspiration and motivation in it for many, I am sure. But for a physician who writes--more than once--that "diets don't work," then why did he undertake a DRASTIC 800-calorie-a-day-nothing-but-liquid-protein-shakes DIET to lose the weight he writes about??????And while he promises early in the book to write more about liquid protein shake diets, his very scanty page about it in the back provides no substantial information.And while bravo for him that he could take a year off work and go motoring around the country to take his mind off his self-induced drastic diet, it's certainly nothing practical the rest of us can follow.And his 7 Pillars? Written after he lost his weight, certainly not what he followed while on his drastic diet.On the plus side, reading his story does make it easy to think that if he did it, so can others.
Is the review positive or negative?
