    Synopsis

    During his forty years of medical practice and in his nationally syndicated column, Dr. Peter Gott has been asked constantly by patients and readers for a simple, foolproof way to lose weight. In response, he developed the No Flour, No Sugar Diet, which has prompted countless success stories from his patients, thousands of letters from his readers raving about their phenomenal weight loss, and his first New York Times bestselling book, Dr. Gott's No Flour, No Sugar Diet. And now, here are more than 175 new recipes promising rapid and effective weight loss.


    It's uncomplicated and inexpensive. It allows you to forget calorie counting and gram counting. Cheating is allowed! In this book, Dr. Gott shows how easy it is to experience a variety of wonderful meals (including dessert!) while eliminating flour and added sugar from your diet. Say good-bye to bagels and cakes-and enjoy lean meats; potatoes; rice; low-fat dairy products; vegetables; flourless, sugar-free cookies; and fruits. The inexpensive and nutritious dishes make maintaining this diet a snap for everyone, with recipes such as:



    • Breakfast: Faux French Toast, Spicy Scrambled Eggs, Potato Pancakes with Applesauce

    • Soups: Creamy Tomato, Turkey and Barley, Cuban Black Bean

    • Appetizers: Sausage-Stuffed Mushrooms, Salmon Cakes on Spinach, Cheesy Eggplant Wedges

    • Entrees: Asparagus and Chicken Pasta, Stir-Fried Beef with Bean Threads, Jasmine Turkey Rice

    • Desserts: Fruity Rice Pudding, Blueberry Raspberry Crumble, Banana Bread, Mandarin Mousse

    ...and more.


    In addition, the bookincludes advice on stocking your kitchen, understanding healthy carbohydrates and how to incorporate them into your diet, and avoiding the dreaded yo-yo dieting effect. Eliminate flour and sugar from your diet-shed excess pounds and enjoy your ideal weight!

    Reviewer: Annie Slessman

    There are what, about a zillion diets in print and even more cookbooks? So why would you want to pay the price of another book touting a diet and offering new recipes? Well, without trying out the diet or the recipes, this reviewer thinks they sound at least ? doable! So many diets are fad diets, which cause side effects from their restrictions. My own experience with several popular diets has brought on nausea, dizziness and very little weight loss results. What does work is good old common sense eating which offers a variety of nutritious and healthy foods. Dr. Gott?s, No Flour, No Sugar Cookbook and diet seems to fall in the category of healthy and nutritious.

    Frankly, in all my years of dieting, I had somehow missed Dr. Gott?s No Flour, No Sugar Diet. I was amazed when I read a summary of the diet and then read the cookbook that the recipes sounded so good. Instead of flour, he uses oatmeal and instead of sugar, he suggests a variety of alternatives to refined sugar. Fruits and veggies are the main foods in this work. The nice thing about this diet is there is really no calorie counting, carb counts, etc. Just eliminate sugar and flour from your diet and Dr. Gott suggests you will see weight loss. Now, I am no doctor or nutritionist, but it does make sense to me that cutting these two elements from your diet would encourage weight loss.

    Of course, Dr. Gott suggests that a person must use good judgment in the amounts you consume. That would seem good accompanying advice to any diet. Portion control is a definite must.

    If you are tired of the diet you are currently using, looking for a new diet or even think you might need to lose a couple of pounds, this concept sounds like it would rival Weight Watchers. You will at the very least be eating a more natural, nutritious and satisfying diet that offers a potential weight loss.
