About this title: Fitness professionals have to know the best way to stay in shape - it's their business! Ask every star in the fitness world how he or she eats.

Allow one of the biggest fitness divas in the world, Tosca Reno, to give you all the particulars, including two weeks' worth of menus and recipes.
Note: This is a general synopsis. Each listing is described below.
"This was beautifully illustrated, which gave it the feel of a slick shiny magazine article. There's nothing new here-- eat more fruits and vegetables-- but she has some tips that are helpful: avoid granola, for instance.
There were a couple of moments, though, that were humiliating for anyone who is trying to lose weight. Moments like, "You don't have to admit you're obese. Everyone can see it." And "If you aren't losing weight, you're doing it wrong. You know where you are cheating!"
Final note: she's obsessed with oatmeal and bee pollen."
"I have put into practice, quite a few principles from this book and have succeeded in losing 35 lbs. This is not really a diet, it is a lifestyle change. The book is interesting to read, not like some health books that can be difficult to get through."
"This book is great! This book explains how to change your lifestyle, not just go on another diet. The explanations are simple and easy to understand. Tosca Reno explains the benefits of "clean eating" in a way that is scientific but simple. This book is very informative. Also there are recipes in the back that are delicious! If you stick with clean eating lifestyle you will reap the benefits!"
"Hmm. What do I say about this book? I thought it was very motivating. She's right, you know. We eat a ton of horrible food that is shortening our lifespans and affecting the quality of life in the years we do have here. Still, although I appreciate her enthusiasm, I can't completely give up junk - especially sugar. I am eating much MUCH cleaner than I was and I can already tell a difference. I have, however, had a sweet treat once a day (as opposed to all day, so I'm improving.) I figure that if I even semi-live the clean eating way, I will see semi-benefits and the more I live it, the better I'll feel."
