Summary: "Love It"

I absolutely love this cook book. The recipes are easy to make and low in calories. They aren't too much from the everyday stuff that you eat, which makes it easier to not feel like you are dieting. I would recommend this to anyone.

Summary: "Too Much Sodium!"

I've watched a few episodes of the Biggest Loser and was curious about what the show offered as sample recipes. However, I would not recommend any from this book as they are very high in sodium. I was surprised to see this as I thought they would be healthier. I suggest that you buy a lot of vegetables and broil your meats if you are interested in losing weight. Keep it simple. Make salads and measure all of the ingredients you use, especially salad dressing (lots of calories and sodium in most of those). Even better, make your own dressing or just use olive oil and vinegar. I recommend the Harvard School of Public Health Healthy Eating Pyramid:
[...]
It's easier to understand and more accurate than the USDA food pyramid, which makes no sense at all since they changed it.

I ended up checking out this book from the library and I suggest you should too, if you can stomach the salt. Otherwise, save your money for food.

Summary: "Worth the money"

This is a fun book that can help you eat healthier with a lot of good receipies.
This review is from: The Biggest Loser Cookbook: More Than 125 Healthy, Delicious Recipes Adapted the tv Show Some of our favorite recipes from the book are the Open Faced Burritos, the Almost Fast Food Burger, the Picante Chicken, the roast beef sandwich, the breakfast sausages, and the turkey roll-ups. We haven't gotten through them all yet but we're working our way through the book. II am an incredibly picky eater and usually if I get 1 or 2 recipes out of a cookbook that I buy I'm pretty lucky. I'm pretty "plain jane" when it comes to food. The Biggest Loser Cookbook is the perfect book for me because it takes a lot of those basic meals that I love and makes them healthier. I've even learned enough from the book that I can make adaptions and play around with the recipes to create even more great meals for myself and my family.
