- Fantastic!The author is very knowledgable and informative. She has a wonderful frank and humorous writing style that tells it like it is! Just wish I had the willpower to take her advice! Rating: - Animal Rights Propaganda, Not A Health BookIt's a bait and switch. I thought I was buying a humorous health and nutrition book, but instead it was animal rights advocacy material. I have no problem with the animal rights movement, but the nature of this book should be made clear right from the start, on the front and back covers. Rating: - Just another Pro-Vegan tomeI bought this book because it seemed like a fun read, described as a sort of irreverant look at dieting. And it was - for the first chapter or so. Then it got down to the real business of the book, which is to push a Vegan lifestyle as the only way to go. That's fine, but I really wish I'd known that before I wasted the money on the book! After it launched into the vegan stuff I just put the book away. A waste of my $$ and time. Rating: - This book changed my lifeWhen I saw this book at the bookstore I thought that it was just a simple diet book. I had no idea how it would change my life. I read this book all in one sitting it was so engrossing. I never planned to be a vegan, but I am proud to say that I have been one now for a month and I have no plans of stopping. Yes I had to give up many things that I loved, but I feel so much better and healthier. I could have done with out the vulgar language - that is the only negative about this book. I tell friends who ask why I went vegan that I read this book and that I only recommend reading it if you are ready for a lifestyle change. Overall I am thrilled with my lifestyle change. I have finally managed to drop the last 5 pounds that were hanging on from my second pregnancy. Rating: - Great bookRead with an open mind. I picked it up 6 months ago expecting fluff chick lit and have been a non-smoking vegan ever since.
