“Eat sensibly and exercise,” is Bob Greene’s message, and in a friendly and personal style, he shows you how. Greene, an exercise physiologist and Oprah Winfrey’s trainer, focuses on diet with a wealth of sound information and helpful strategies. Greene starts with a cutting overview of destructive diets, including those popular today. Then, after reviewing exercise essentials, he presents a refreshingly sensible plan for nutritious, healthy eating, with tools for keeping intake moderate. One key is eating breakfast, which boosts metabolism and helps you eat less all day. Another is distributing your calories over the course of the day rather than eating a lot at any one meal.

You won’t get bored with Greene’s 85 enticing recipes, including Scrambled Egg Whites with Spinach and Orange, Breakfast Fried Rice, Gingered Butternut Squash Soup, Fish Chowder, Portabella Mushroom Burgers, Pan-Seared Fillet of Tilapia with Mango Tomato Salsa and Lentil Pancake, and Chocolate Almond Angel Food Cake. Greene’s other books in the Make the Connection (with Winfrey) and Get with the Program series helped millions start a fitness program. This one will help people concerned with weight loss and health take their next steps towards a nutritious, moderate-calorie, lifetime eating plan. –Joan Price

Product Description:
Bob Greene’s bestselling Get With the Program! showed hundreds of thousands of people how to make a habit of healthy living and fitness. Now, in The Get With the Program! Guide to Good Eating, Greene presents a blueprint for a lifetime of healthful eating, with detailed, easy-to-follow guidelines and 85 delicious recipes.

Greene knows that you’re not going to stick to an eating plan if you’re bored or feeling deprived, so he’s developed a program based on balance, moderation, flexibility, and variety. After you make the commitment to Get With the Program!, you’ll discover the keys to boosting your metabolism. Next you’ll take the four steps to healthy eating, making one change at a time: eating a nutritious breakfast, setting an eating cut-off time, redistributing your calories, and making healthful food choices. Greene shows you how to determine the perfect way to eat for your unique needs, how to stock a healthy kitchen, how to dine out enjoyably, and how to “cheat” without guilt.

Finally, there are 85 easy-to-prepare recipes that are as full of flavor as they are good for you. Try a Peaches and “Cream” Fresh Fruit Smoothie or some Buttermilk Blueberry Pancakes for breakfast. Salmon Burgers or Tomatoes Stuffed with Couscous, Cucumber, and Mint make a satisfying lunch, and how about Spinach Penne with Spicy Roasted Pepper Sauce or Baked Lemon Herb Halibut for dinner? Hungry for more? Satisfying soups, tasty side dishes (including luscious Mashed Potatoes), and tempting desserts, like airy Pavlova with Raspberry Sauce or Chocolate Almond Angel Food Cake, make healthful eating a pleasure.

The Get With the Program! Guide to Good Eating is an effective and enjoyable approach to good health, good eating, and weight loss that you can trust.

Must have book by Rosa Acevedo
The book was in great condition for very low price paid. Thanks

This book was an easy read and it was even easier to apply by health fan
Mr. Greene’s philosophies to my routine. Unlike so many of the other books on diet and nutrition, Greene takes into account how difficult it can be to eat healthy and still live in the REAL world.

I have taken his advice and changed my diet and (with exercise)already lost 15 lbs. (in a month)

Good Health if you eat Great Food by Marija Knapic
Ilike this book, beacuse there are really good recipes. I like too cook and i like too cook healthy.I am also over weight and I hope, that this food hepl me lost weight.

A 4 for the Receipes by J. A Carty
If you are an emotional eater I don’t suggest this book alone. You should go back and read Get With the Program or some other book that makes you focus on the psychological issues behind your eating first.

If, however, you have been following that program or just simply have issues with the types of foods you eat then this book may be for you.

There are excellent tips on how to eat healthier (think of it as an easier version of Dr. Weil’s suggestions) and the recipies in the back are quite tasty but beyond that there is little new information.

If you want to try some organic recipies I suggest this book for you but if you are looking for a weight loss plan pick up the regular get with the program first.
