Skinny Bitch in the Kitch: Kick-Ass Recipes for Hungry Girls Who Want to Stop Cooking Crap (and Start Looking Hot!)

This book is full of yummy recipies. When eaten in recommended quantities, these foods will not add any inches to your waist-line, but still manage to be tasty and fill you up.

I bought this book to try to loose weight. I see no indication in the book or in any of these reviews that it has actually helped anyone loose a pound. The recipes don't look any lower fat than the foods they are substituting for. If this has helped anyone loose weight and keep it off, I would love to know.

If you want to start questioning what the nation's advertisers are trying to feed you, then please check this out. Our TVs are saturated with ads for unhealthy foods - hamburgers, soda, fries, you name it, and there's a billion dollars going into trying to fool you into eating that stuff. The consequences? Record high rates of obesity, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. The chapters about the vegan lifetsyle are great- and it's exactly what the country needs to hear. All of the current major public health issues, from heart disease to diabetes, find their source in an unhealthy, meat-and-sugar-centered diet. By giving up meat alone, you already cut down your risk of heart disease by 15% - just imagine the number of lives that we could save, of humans and other animals too, by making that simple and easy transition. For vegans, heart disease is virtually nonexistant compared to the nonvegetarian statistics. I knew of this before I read the book and took a look at it after I became vegan, while wandering around in the medical campus bookstore. That in itself should testify to the accuracy of this book's reccomendations, and how badly we need to hear it.

For the sake of your health, check it out :)

After I read the first book, Skinny Bitch, I knew I had to run out and get this one as well. The recipes in this book are delicious (the first thing I made was the carrot cake - omg, yum!). I recommend this book for people that just want to eat healthier, or are new vegetarians or vegans.

. This is a vegetarian cook book plain and simple, so if you are looking for meat go else ware. I am a vegetarian, so I truly enjoy the recipes. Some are a little basic but others are for things I would have never tried on my own. So far I have made 4-5 dishes and I have not been disappointed yet. If you are looking for veg./vegan recipes this is the book for you. Although it is fun, and candid which I love, I do wish that it had the nutritional information to accompany each recipe. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
