Publisher's Note
Do you knowthat low-fat yogurt, bagels, oranges, bananas, and pasta can make you fat?Do you know that swearing off the chocolate you love can make you put on pounds?Do you know that you dont need willpower to diet? What you do  need is a program that is medically safe, nutritionally sound, and promises astonishing results by taking away your urge to overeat. Its The 5-Day Miracle Diet.When East Coast CEOs of Fortune 500 companies, actors, socialites, and famous sports figures need to lose weight, chances are their doctors refer them to Adele Puhn. She has helped thousands  of men and women in the past eighteen years. Her lucky clients not only lose weight more easily than they ever dreamed possible, but they keep the weight off forever. The reason for their success is Adele Puhns revolutionary eating program, which is based on cutting-edge biochemical research and years of experience.Seventy-five percent of The 5-Day Miracle Diet is biochemistry. Glucose is the fuel your body needs to keep going, but when unbalanced eating drops blood glucose levels below a certain point, your body responds with an uncontrollable food craving--usually for a carbo-laden, sugary treat like chocolate, ice cream, cookies, even alcohol--that will give your body an instant hit. The problem is that the overdose of glucose starts insulin flowing so profusely that the rug is pulled out from under you. You are left in a state of low blood sugar with a need to eat more.With Adele Puhns program, you will learn to eat certain foods at certain times to regulate your blood sugar and keep it stable all day long . When youre in "good blood sugar," your cravings disappear--a process that takes just five days! And not only will you lose your cravings, youll steadily melt away pounds while feeling more energized, mentally focused, and healthier than ever before.The other twenty-five percent of her program tackles the fathead  mentality that most of us share: the emotional reasons that make us overeat. Adele Puhn gives you powerful strategies for fighting the fatheads  sabotaging ways, whether you overeat in response to your feelings, family issues, or old habits that are hard to let go.So toss our your food pyramids, low-fat cookies, and carbo-packed meals. And throw away words like willpower, motivation , and urges . Adele Puhns program works with your body, not against it, to bring you fabulous results--the weight loss you've always wanted, easier than you ever dreamed possible.

Industry reviews
At half the length, this would have been an excellent guide to training away your cravings and losing weight, but redundancies and fillers add inappropriate padding. The basic point is as follows: if your blood sugar bottoms out, you start to have cravings, while at the same time you've become too tired and cranky to stand firm against them. Puhn, a certified nutrition specialist, recommends a starch and protein breakfast (starch breaks down quickly, protein slowly); and vegetables and proteins for lunch and dinner. More importantly, Puhn recommends snacking twice in the morning and twice in the afternoon on what she calls "Hard Chew" or "Soft Chew" snacks (apple or cantaloupe) in order to keep in "Good Blood Sugar" or GBS. With examples and sample menus, she outlines daily eating plans. Recognizing that not everyone is the same, she makes allowances for occasional indulgences and smartly helps tailor the program to vegetarians and to the insulin-resistant and carbo addicts. She also makes a cogent case against "Lite" foods (which often make up for low fat by high sugar or high salt). But jargon ("the fathead factor") and peppy patter ( "You call this a diet? I call it a dream come true") make this sensible, practical program hard to swallow. (June)
