For a new way of eating. I was so fortunate to choose this one by Leanne Vogel. (I’ve already lost 8 pounds in 2 weeks)
She thought of everything I could possible need for successful dieting. This seems to be a healthier version of the diet--she uses milk and cheese substitutions. The first ½ of the book is informational. The 2nd ½ is a collection of outstanding recipes. There are many good charts that reinforce the concepts she explains in easy to understand language. She’s environmentally aware and suggests the best Earth-considerate options for ingredients. There are questions to help decide which of her included diet plans will work best for you. She knows it can be scary and addresses your fears.
The material and organization are really outstanding, and I think she really deserves an award for this book.
There are so many color pictures—First medium sized pictures of the food groups, then big pictures with each recipe and little pictures of all the recipes at the very end. The features I liked best were: On her meal plan, each meal suggestion had the recipe page right there- you didn’t have to go to an index. Nutrient content is summarized as a daily total on her weekly-plan-calendar section, and individually with each recipe so you can bump it up or down to your own liking. (Also shows fat ratios.) She gives you options--You can be fixated on numbers or use another more relaxed approach. If something comes up—she’s got you covered with a section on things that you might encounter. I own a lot of cookbooks and this one is outstanding! The recipes have been delicious! Candy like a Mounds bar?!, Toasted marshmallow coconut treats? Cauliflower rice and cauliflower mac & cheese? These were new for me, but are very tasty and healthy! Almond flour crust is my new favorite. Ingredients are not exotic and expensive like I’ve seen in other keto books. Simple hamburger, eggs, chicken, chops, salad, flax seed muffins (all nondairy). There are a few fancy recipes for special occasions.) She’s even got recipes to make your own nut milks, and comparative alcohol consideration charts. The only problem I have is that the food is so good, people that aren’t dieting want a plate after one taste and raving how good it is. (What a great problem to have). It started a new way of using my kitchen. I never thought I’d be one of “those” organized cooks that prep and store meals but she explains exactly how to do it and she works leftovers in the meal plan so a lot of days you are simply reheating. It turned out to be easier than I imagined as she is also in tune with minimizing cooking effort and cleanup. I really appreciate that! I almost bought another book. but another reviewer said: “Get this one instead” And I’m so happy I did. I will pass on that same message—Get this one!
Good luck.
Why all the research? I'm 64 years old and was pretty terrified at the prospect of eating this way. I also don't have a gallbladder to assist in fat assimilation. With cancer, diabetes, heart attacks and strokes on both sides of my family, I really didn't want to make any mistakes.
In the 19 years I've been a member of Amazon, I've never once “Pre-ordered” anything, with the exception of this book. What sold me on this book was watching and listening to several dozen of Leanne's youtube video's and podcast postings. I found all of her information to be extremely well researched, and she consistently provided far more useful and important health information, of a higher value, than even most of the medical doctors who've posted on the same subjects. I decided to give it a shot, but still with some reluctance, as eating this way is totally counter intuitive to the way I've eaten for the last 40 years.
Leanne has a funny sense of humor in both her video's and in her writing style. She's as delightful to read as she is to watch. I have followed her instructions for the last 6 weeks or so, and have effortlessly lost over 30 pounds. I have felt fully supported by her advice, including her suggestion of taking Ox Bile and Essential Enzymes to help with fat digestion, for those of us without a gallbladder. I haven't felt this great in many years, and will continue to eat this way from now on.
If you're on a limited income as I am, and can only afford to purchase one or two books on this subject, drop this book in your cart. I have no doubt that you'll be very glad you did. Thank you, and thank you Leanne. This is truly a wonderful and life changing book.
Updated - 3/1/18
Before I get going and because of a comment posted below, I need to say that I have no connection with the publisher of this book. I don't know Leanne, any of her friends or anyone connected with the publishing of this book, The book was not given to me so I'd give it a nice review. I purchased it.
In the comment section below, M.Kent suggested an update. When I went on this diet I was 6'4'' and was pushing 265 lbs. I wasn't hugely fat, just what people referred to as “really frigging large.” With the exception of my ex-mother-in-law who once told me, “Oh my God, you're enormous.” Sigh.
I'm still 6'4'' (of course) but I weigh 225 lbs. I went on this diet not just lose weight, but to avoid some of the above stated illnesses that my family has experienced, mostly from a lack of solid health and nutritional information. God bless the internet.
I will continue to eat this way because I feel and look healthier. I also noticed a reduction in the inflammation from the osteoarthritis in my spine. I don't eat sugar or sweets of any kind, and keep my carbs below 20 or 25 grams a day. I don't drive myself crazy anymore tracking macros or compulsively counting calories. Between protein and fat, getting enough fat was more of a challenge for me. I eat lots of Kerry Gold butter, Coconut oil, heavy cream, olive oil and lots of avocados. I occasionally use MCT oil.
I plan to take my weight down to about 210 lbs by June or July. I've also integrated intermittent fasting into the mix. I eat during a four hour “eating window.” and have started doing a 72 hour fast once every three months. Leanne addresses fasting in her book.
Being seriously committed to this type of eating, I've found it helpful to have a ketone blood tester to check on where I'm at, at different points. The breath and urine testers are a waste of money if you want accurate testing. The tester I found, and believe is the most accurate and least expensive is called Keto Mojo. It tests both ketones and glucose and if you purchase it from them, you're guaranteed to be able to purchase ketone test strips for only .99 cents, instead of the $2.00 to $7.00 each, as I've seen them listed for on the internet.
Here are some other things I've found useful, on what first seemed like an odd journey of eating fat to be healthy.
Greater Goods Nourish Digital Kitchen Food Scale. Great scale for the price, considering all it does. Available on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Greater-Goods-Nourish-Portions-Nutritional/dp/B00O5U4NDQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1518967663&sr=8-3&keywords=Greater+Goods+Nourish+Digital+Kitchen+Food+Scale
Nuton MCT Oil which is both C10 and C8. I also sometimes use a C8 MCT Oil which is 99.6% C8 and is a bit more expensive. Both available on Amazon
I've also found a short mimicking fasting diet, to be very helpful to getting fat adapted within a short period of time, without the hinderence of “keto flu.” One or two avocados and one or two greens drinks a day, launched my blood ketones from 0 to 4.2 mmol/L in only four days.
The only other book I purchased, and only for the very serious is, The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Living by Stephen Phinney, MD, PhD and Jeff Volek, PhD, RD.
Everybody and every body is different and it takes a bit of experimentation to figure out what combination of these techniques (if any) are right for you. Take your time and have a good time with it. I hope this was helpful. I'm sorry it was so long.
Best Wishes,
Scott Walker
Week 1 i am down 7lbs, week 1 my boyfriend lost 10lbs. i will try and do an update my weight on the weeks, and if i have enough confidence i might post before and after photos of the 1st month.

I love the detail of this book, it's amazing thorough, has so many wonderful recipes and is a Keto based diet that has variation!
I have struggled with Keto way of eating in the beginning, especially since it was male-based, dairy based and SUPER low carb, and on top of it, I was still breastfeeding which made it harder on my body when I was so low carb and not getting those small carb ups here and there to ensure adequate supply of my milk - and at the time there was NO support for a woman on Keto, or a woman on Keto who was breastfeeding, let alone a person with dairy allergies! So I quit, really disheartened, but found Leanne shortly after through a friend's recommendation and totally fell in love!!
A keto way of life, with dairy free recipes and a total overhaul of your health is what this book offers! I'm so happy to see this book supporting women on their Keto journey, but also encouraging you to enjoy simple meals and having so many options really helps with those intense sugar-cravings in the beginning!
I have made the Cinnamon Flax Muffins and it is 100% Child-Approved!! My 3 boys gobbled those up in a matter of days!
I also made the Vanilla Keto Icecream and again, my kids inhaled that so fast! My eldest is starting to learn how fat can help him feel full and help him grow more effeciently. As they grow older I'll continue to help them make the right choices for their health, especially to kick that sugar-habit that most (and especially my) children have!
I saw Leanna speak in Vancouver,BC while on her book tour, and I remember someone saying that the snacks, and the chocolate chips were rather expensive online. I have always made my own chocolate, since it's hard to find anything that's 100% dairy free for a reasonable price, there are many recipes out there for making your own "chocolate bark" which could easily be crushed into chunks (while frozen) and used in baking. I also find mixing coconut oil and homemade coconut butter a better option for most chocolate.
This entire diet can be done easily and effectively, and I am so excited for so many dairy free keto options that are full of fat and encourages me to listen to my body. If there is only one thing to take away from this book, it would be that this can change your life. It will open yourself up to honoring your body's needs and listening to yourself respectfully, without the shame or guilt or fear of failure. On top of everything, Leanne has an amazing narrative voice in her book that makes me laugh out at times!
