About this product

Product Information

The most delicious and decadent way to lose weight, lower cholesterol, and increase energy. Wouldn't you rather savor a buttery croissant instead of inhaling an artificially flavored diet shake? Isn't taking a relaxing stroll preferable to pounding out early morning miles on the treadmill? The French live this way, yet stay thin and healthy. Now, with The French Don't Diet Plan , you can, too! In his groundbreaking book, The Fat Fallacy , Dr. Will Clower was the first to present a theory of how the French maintain low obesity and heart disease rates despite their seemingly "unhealthy" lifestyle. Dr. Clower learned that the French don't worry about dieting but rather are more concerned with how they eat. That means paying attention to the taste, pacing, and enjoyment of meals, instead of counting calories, cutting fat and carbs, or taking guilt trips to the gym. Now, in The French Don't Diet Plan , Dr. Clower shows how easy it is to incorporate his remarkably effective techniques and the French lifestyle into a busy American day. Dr. Clower has found that natural foods have overwhelmingly been pushed out of the American diet by what he calls "faux foods"- processed, additive-filled convenience products, often marketed as healthy with buzzwords like low fat and low carb. In addition, mealtimes should be a slow, sensual break for the body and mind-not a face-stuffing frenzy while standing up in the kitchen or sitting behind the wheel. As a result of such habits, Dr. Clower says, we are not eating what our bodies need, and we're eating in a way that is not conducive to proper digestion. Science shows this precise combination of factors causes weight gain. The French approach is about taking the time to enjoy real food without guilt or deprivation. Not only a successful path to becoming thin for life, The French Don't Diet Plan will help you put joie de vivre back into your relationship with food. . Formerly forbidden foods, welcome back! Learn why butter, cheese, bread, and chocolate are health foods that keep hunger at bay. . Spend more time eating! Discover why you should plan on having seconds and make meals last longer. . Hate to work out? Find out why you don't have to exercise to lose pounds-and how relaxation can help keep weight off for good. . Now you're cooking. Enjoy dozens of easy recipes for satisfying comfort foods, from Hot Artichoke-Cheese Dip to Creamy Alfredo Sauce, and Double-Almond Biscotti to Practically Flourless Chocolate Cake.

  • Try it. it can't hurt, and it may very well help.

    It seems to work better as a plan of eating than other methods. I managed to attain a goal weight and maintain for some months before derailing and then resuming plan. It is certainly worth a try if one is serious about managing their feeding habits. One need not feel deprived by giving up any favorite foods. Only adjust the way in which one approaches eating.

  • The French Don't Diet Plan

    I bought the book because a cousin and aunt have followed the plan and have lost 34lbs and 14lbs. Its an interesting concept,I think the most notable fact in the book is that the French eat a very natural diet and Americans eat alot of processed foods which the liver does not recognize and therefore stores as fat. I was surprised to see that Splenda is not a natural sweetener although it is advertised as one, and that it is not processed as a natural food. Don't know if I could follow the plan, but the information about the processed foods was an eye opener.
