Product Description
No more counting carbs, calories, or fat grams! This revolutionary diet plan works with your hormones to curb your appetite, boost your metabolism, and take the pounds off for good!
Cutting-edge research shows that losing weight is not about carbs, calories, or even willpower—it’s about a hormone called leptin, and how it functions in your body. Leptin is your body’s natural weight-loss mechanism: it curbs your appetite, jump-starts your metabolism, and when working properly makes you literally fat resistant—you will lose weight effortlessly and efficiently and never gain those pounds back.
If you’re struggling to lose weight, chances are you are “leptin resistant”—your body no longer responds to leptin, making it impossible for you to slim down. The Fat Resistance Diet is the first and only eating plan designed specifically to combat leptin resistance and reprogram your body to start melting away the pounds. Using a breakthrough combination of anti-inflammatory and hormone-balancing foods, the three-phase regimen delivers:
A loss of six to ten pounds in the first two weeks.
A loss of at least two pounds a week thereafter.
Fun, flavorful meals that make sticking with the plan a breeze.
An easy maintenance program that keeps you fat resistant for life.
With over 100 delicious recipes designed for maximum satisfaction and eating pleasure, the Fat Resistance Diet is the only diet you’ll ever need—a brand new way to eat that will transform your body into a lean, fat-fighting machine.

I am a 44 year-old female with signs of RA. I started this diet in an attempt to reduce any inflammation in my body that might aggravate my RA. I have to say, I haven't had much relief in that department, but this diet cut my carb cravings, boosted my energy, and made me feel like I am finally eating the way I was made to eat. This diet just feels right! It's a feeling that you just cannot get from a bag or a box.
It took me about 2 months to see steady weight loss - I've lost a total of 17 pounds so far. And now what I now know about this eating plan is that I can go on vacation, eat out every meal for 4 days, or "cheat" on the weekends or when we have company and not gain a single ounce - I really do keep the weight off without trying and it keeps coming off.
This diet has absolutely done what it was designed to do - put my body back in balance by eating healthy fats and phytonutrients.
The recipes are delicious, creative, and balanced. It did seem like the portions were really meant for two, but I guess it's part of the "loading" stage to get the balance of healthy fats in so they can go to work. It happened for me and I am very, very grateful.

When I ordered this book, my hope was that "this time it will work !" As I read through the book, I decided that indeed, it "might work!"
As I put the recommendations to work, I found out that it DID work!
I have totally changed my eating habits, as recommended, and have found that weight loss started immediately, and has maintained at an even level for four months. The recipes are delicious, the snacks satisfying, the results awesome!
I highly recommend this book to all who have been having trouble losing weight, and keeping it off. It IS easy, after all !

Great summary of leptin resistance September 29, 2008

This book was easy to read, yet gave the reader a grasp of the most recent research on obesity, with the issues of leptin resistance and inflammation.
He has a unique twist on it with the use of herbs to fight inflammation.
After reading this book, you will have a much better grasp of what you need to do and what you need to avoid to get off the dieting yo-yo.
The only way his diet could be improved would be if it were vegetarian, as cooked meat is very toxic. Nonetheless, this book is worth reading just to understand the science in easy layman's terms.
Healthy Way To Lose Weight September 7, 2008

This way of eating healthy makes a big difference in the way you feel. The diet has you eating plenty of fruits and vegetables about nine servings instead of five. The food requires shopping more often to maintain the freshness of the vegetables and fruit and is costlier than other diets I have tried but I feel it was well worth it. The recipes are easy to follow and grocery lists are provided for the first four weeks. Easy to read and follow.
