[.ca] The Little Black Dress Diet (ISBN 1856264319)

lovely lovely lovely:
I originally bought this book out of utter desperation, right before going home to confront my family over christmas. I followed the little black dress diet (one of about 7 in the book) fairly strictly for the full ten days, and low and behold, a full 10 pounds were whisked off my figure. On top of that, I had increased energy, slept better, and actually continued to lose weight for some time after the ten day duration of the diet. The meals prescribed in the book are relatively large-portioned and filling (most of the time)...they're also flexible. I particularly like how this diet is not necessarily low-carb or low-fat (things I've tried and haven't been able to stick to), but emphasizes eating whole and organic foods, while still allowing for the odd treat here and there.
