 disappointing book June 27, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Well, I had really high hopes for this book, but if you're looking to actually be healthy, and enjoy your food, and live a healthy lifestyle long-term, this probably isn't the book for you. Too many weird chemical and tofu substitutions. Even the recipes that seemed promising didn't really taste good when I actually made them. A MUCH better book is "The Most Decadent Diet Ever" by Devin Alexander. She uses real food that you can live with forever. Her "Chocolate Not Only In Your Dreams Cake", is absolutely to die for, and it has real brown sugar, not splenda, 5 grams of fiber (without adding fiber one cereal), tastes totally indulgent, and you get a real life size portion for 3 weight watchers points! Now that's what I'm talking about!!! And it was easy to make to boot!
 I'm a Hungry Chick! June 27, 2008
I have been reading HG for at least a year now and I love all her stuff in her daily emails. I even have the insulated lunch bag! The recipes are easy to read and easy to follow. The stuff is fantastic and oh so good for you. I told everyone at work about it and they have purchased their own copies. You have GOT TO GET ONE!!!! And as she says....HG out!!!
Long awaited cook book June 26, 2008
I recently reached my Weight Watchers goal weight and this is just the kind of cook book as well as eatting tips I will need to stay at my goal weight. I am a follower of "Hungary Girl" on line newsletter and this goes right along with the newsletter. I look forward to any updates.
 Hungry girl leaves a bad taste... June 25, 2008

I used to love reading Hungry Girls newsletter, which I had signed up to have automatically sent to my email.
Then I began noticing that she just seemed to be a product pusher. The focus was no longer on whole foods and making them the center of healthy living; it was on the latest fat-free, low-carb, sugar-free product on the market.
I was hoping this book would be different, but it is just a regurgitation of all of her newsletter information and I have to agree with other reviewers' comments that it's not all that healthy.
Girl, if you're hungry, eat some real food - NOT Fiber One and Splenda!

Lots of good recipes however some called for item I do not keep on hand. Takes a little planning to make the recipes. Would be nice if it had more pictures.
