Nikki Haskell's Star Diet

Rating:
Summary: Horrible!!!
Review: Haskell's book is a total mess. Her information and advice are as laughable as her writing skills. I hope nobody is gullible enough to believe that just because she claims this is a "Star" Diet that it means all of Hollywood is lined up just to read her book.

Summary: "Really sad"
Review: Nikki's "Star" diet is approximately 900 calories. Thats not enough for a healthy individual to consume. She also says no to fats like nuts. A few nuts now and again may be fatty but fat provides satiation and nuts provide the "good" fat our body needs. This is not a healthy diet for anyone and I would think that those who did manage to follow it would regain quickly any weight that they lost. Thumbs down on this book!

Summary: Nikki Haskell's Star Diet
Review: Nikki's book is the best. This is my second week on the diet and I have lost 5 pounds. I have been on just about every diet there is and read many, many books. Her advice has a practical common sense approach about eating healthy. I love the recipes and have made many of them. My favorite is the turkey meatloaf...reduce the portions by 1/3 for 1 meatloaf. It has been difficult for me to lose weight on other diets because I was eating to much food for my metabolism and eating food that wasn't digesting very well. I am eating between 800 and 1,000 calories per day. Recording everything I eat in a diary has been my salvation to prevent overeating. Eating a lot of small meals during the day has kept me satisfied and full. I used to have a fear and then guilt about eating fast food. Thanks to Nikki's book I know what to order in any given circumstance. I was following the Pritikin program which is an excellent diet and found it to be very similar to the Star Diet. The Pritikin Program frowns on nuts, olives, avocados, and oils due to the fat content. I am very confused as to the comments by the other readers. They must not have eaten enough fruits and vegetables. Now I am just waiting for my Star Caps to arrive in the mail. I want to honestly say every diet is a mind set. I have set my mind to eat healthy and lean and I am losing weight by using my daily diary. Good luck to everyone out there dieting.
