New York Times bestselling author and cutting-edge nutrition expert Lyn-Genet Recitas reveals the surprising truth behind the "healthy" foods that cause weight gain and provides personalized meal plans for rapid weight loss.
Carbs and portion sizes are not the problem when it comes to weight loss, contrary to popular belief. Foods that are revered by traditional weight loss programs, such as turkey, eggs, cauliflower, beans, and tomatoes, may be healthy in a vacuum, but when combined with each person's unique chemistry, they can cause a toxic reaction that triggers weight gain, premature aging, inflammation, and a host of health problems including constipation, migraines, joint pain, and depression.
Lyn-Genet's groundbreaking 20-day program helps readers finally unlock the mystery behind what does and does not work for their individual bodies. With detailed meal plans, recipes, and effective, personalized advice, you will discover how to:
Lose a half a pound a day while enjoying generous servings of foods you love
Identify your hidden trigger foods that are causing weight gain and inflammation, among other symptoms
Build a personalized healthy foods list that promotes rapid weight loss
Avoid feeling bloated, tired, or unhealthy again!
Feel better, look better, and be empowered by the knowledge of what truly works best for your body!

Title: What an eye-opening experience!
Review: Ok, first things first: THIS IS NOT AN EASY FIX!!! For that matter, it isn't even a weight loss plan, per se. This is a choice to learn about your body, and it ain't for sissies! My husband and I have been at this for a month now.Some background:We both are moderately overweight (20-30 pounds to lose), but not obese. We are moderately active (but I don't like exercise until it's over). I am a 39 yo F, had a hysterectomy 18 months ago and discovered that things just weren't as easy as before. My "go-to" food choices for maximum weight loss and health weren't working, and I had ZERO energy. I had also recently (the last 3 years) been suffering from increasingly annoying year-round allergies, so much so that I was taking Allegra-D daily. I also suffered from headaches (almost weekly), body aches, and overall lethargy and slight depression. Now I realize this means nothing to those who don't know me, but depression has never been my bag (I usually lean toward rage with slightly psychotic manic tendencies! haha) so this was probably the worst thing going for me. I refused to accept that all of this could be attributed to my hysterectomy, and was even more adamant that I was not going to accept this as my new way of "living" - because it wasn't, really. I'm a generally positive gal, and I was proud of my energy levels. So what the heck happened - and how do I "fix" it?Then I saw Lyn-Genet Recitas on Dr. Oz (I know, sounds so cliche') but I loved her message - and I especially loved her data and background.The detox is gentle (well, as gentle as a detox can be) but if you've done years (decades?) of damage, you'll suffer healing crisis. You just will, and there's no amount of consoling that can be done about it. Buy toilet paper and get ready to rest. And when she recommends SAM-e and MSM? She isn't kidding. Take it! It truly helps. I haven't taken anything except Tylenol just once, the second day without coffee, and that was more for my husband and children's sanity than mine, because the migraine was borderline debilitating.The program is heavy with veggies, and if you want to see someone doing "The Plan" roll their eyes, just mention "Spicy Vegetarian Soup" after a week or two in. But there's a method to the madness, and a reason for everything. Love yourself enough to hang in - but commit 100% or it won't work as well! You have to journal your weight as "data" - nothing more, nothing less. Weight increase is viewed as an inflammatory response to an new food, or a mis-step in working the plan. This is one of the issues I have with the plan. If you're doing it as a team, because results are so individualized, there will come a time when you will have a response to something and need a rest day, while your partner will not react and will expect to move on to the next wonderful thing like cheese or red wine. When you say, "No, I need a rest day" to a 235 pound carnivorous man when he's been looking forward to steak, you better run like hell.There will be days that mess with your mind and depress you (I am sensitive to bread. *sigh*) and days that elate you (Chocolate? Heck yeah!). There will also be days you do stuff wrong and end up confused, so you have to repeat the process. It's slow. It's arduous. It's worth it.I feel great. My skin and hair look better. I am gradually regaining my energy. I haven't taken any pills (except my SAM-e, MSM, & B12 supplements). I drink my water. I've lost 9 pounds. My husband has lost 15 (grrr, men!) and has made peace with his inability to handle pork. Weird. We flew through restaurant day, and ended up losing a pound eating french fries because THANK YOU GOD I can still eat potatoes, but I had a patty melt with no bread. Get the picture? It's all about educating yourself, so you can make better choices. And the best part? I don't measure, weigh, or obsess about portions. I do make sure I eat tons of salads - especially if I'm eating a food that would be traditionally inflammatory for me. And for the first time in 18 months, I feel like there's some hope. I'm seeing the "Reverse" gear on my scale.I got my Mom going on The Plan. She's on day 2, and feeling like someone beat her with a baseball bat. She's already tired of carrots, and her house smells like onions and garlic. Yep, sounds about right. So again I'll stress: if you're looking for something geared for just weight loss, this probably isn't for you (initially). But if you're willing to put some work into it and get centered on yourself, you can really answer some questions and ultimately give yourself a better shot at long-term success.Sidenote that's cool? I'm on twitter, and so is the author (Lyn-Genet Recitas). I've tweeted her questions about the book, and holy cow she responds! I went through a bout of stomach virus during my testing, and because of what I knew about my reactivity to oats, I avoided oatmeal and bananas (formerly my go-to) and saved myself so much additional pain! I sailed through it in 24 hours, while other around me were down 3-4 days.Ok, I'm done now. 🙂 Good luck!!

Title: A life changer!
Review: The Plan had so many positive reviews and my massage therapist had lost weight and improved her health following the principles so I decided to give it a try. I am a 57 year old female. I actually worked with the author, doing a consultation. The planning and cooking is labor intensive but you can help this process by preparing some of the food in quantity and freezing. It is worth the time and effort involved.My goal was to lose about 8 lbs and resolve some of my chronic fibromyalgia pain. I have now stabilized at .5 lbs above my goal weight so that is great. My love handles are gone and I am wearing fitted skinny clothes again. The pain issue is better, not totally resolved but I will take it. My son has lost 10 lbs - his goal - and looks great! We agree that this is a very easy way to lose weight in that you are not hungry and the food is delicious. I have always been hungry on other diets.I can go off this for a few days while traveling or when eating out and drop the weight back off in a day or two. You are actually finding out what foods are right for your body and what foods cause inflammation and weight gain. I was surprized to find that pecans and strawberries are a no no for me. Who knew? But peanuts, eggs, and beef work great! I have eaten healthy foods for years and literally felt like I was starving most of the time without achieving the weight I desired. I had incredible will power to no avail! Now I am satisfied, enjoying my food, and achieving my weight goal. I have tried every weight loss program on the planet and none worked particularly well - until The Plan.Update: I had maintained my weight fine for over a year but the my son was in a horrific accident - confined to a wheelchair for 3 months and eating only blenderized food. I was cooking anything he would eat and just too tired to do anything but eat whatever I fixed for him. I gained 7 lbs. Thankfully my son has recovered and is back at school. I went back to TP day one and now at day 4 I have already lost 2 1/2 lbs. It is great to know that I have this tool to quickly drop weight, eat healthy, and never feel deprived!

Review: Some useful information but not everything written is completely true and most of all the author doesn't write anything about what to do if the same food once works for good and once for worst.
