I really love this book. Because of my friends suggestion of this book I have been on the HCG diet (drops, not shots. There are sprays as well). During round 1, I lost 30 lbs in 33 days. Let me tell you I have been over weight since I starting having children. I put on 80 lbs in 10 years. Thanks to this book along with the original "Pound & Inches" book, I am now on my way to loosing that weight, and I have tried many things over the years ~ believe me!!. I just started Round 2 of HCG 1 week ago and have already lost 10 lbs. Kevin's book is a little "out there" with the whole "organic" thing. I live in a small town on a farm and we just don't have the "organic" options. What I couldn't grow myself ~ I just bought frozen (watching sodium). Even though I have read this book from cover to cover, I still open it up almost everyday as a reference ~ even as I am begining Round 2. If you want to loose weight ~ have tried EVERYTHING ~ with 100% commitment this diet WORKS ~ I am living proof and I never believed it possible!Read full review
In connection with his promotional activities he has had a felony conviction and has been an unsuccessful defendant in several Federal Trade Commission (FTC) lawsuits. Trudeau has been charged several times by agencies of the United States government for making claims without evidence. In these cases Trudeau signed a consent decree in which he did not plead guilty but did agree to stop making the claims and to pay a fine. Trudeau subsequently began to sell books, which are protected by the First Amendment and which he thus cannot be prevented from publishing.[24] Trudeau was convicted of fraud and larceny in the early 1990s.[43] The FTC has sued him repeatedly. A court order currently restricts his ability to promote and sell any product or service; however, he is permitted to promote books and other publications due to free-speech protection under the First Amendment as long as they are not used to promote or sell products or services and do not contain misrepresentations.[7][8] On November 19, 2007, a court found Trudeau in contempt of that court order for making what they consider deceptive claims about his book The Weight Loss Cure "They" Don't Want You to Know About.[44][45] In August 2008, he was fined more than $5 million[46] and banned from infomercials for three years for continuing to make fraudulent claims pertaining to the book. The amount of the money damages was later increased to $37 million.[47] 2010: Arrest for criminal contempt of court On February 11, 2010, Trudeau was arrested and forced to appear before Judge Gettleman for criminal contempt of court after he "asked his supporters to email the federal judge overseeing a pending civil case brought against him by the Federal Trade Commission." He was forced to turn over his passport, pay a $50,000 bond and was warned he could face future prison time for interfering with the direct process of the court.[63] Well-known critic of Trudeau, Stephen Barrett, the creator of Quackwatch.org, "has for years labeled Trudeau a fraud" and was quoted: "He struck me as somebody who (believes he) is omnipotent. That is, no one can touch him," Barrett said. "That’s almost been the case."[63]Read full review
Another good program that advises you to go out and buy $1,000 worth of supplements, go to 3 different doctors and gets shots....absolutely not, but I really liked the parts about the changes I could make without the high pricetags. No irradiated food, throw out the microwave, look for GMO evidence, eat 4 pieces of fruit per day, walk 1 mile per day, take a supplement,drink 1 gallon+ H20 and saunas and sunshine are good for you. Simple lifestyle, eat whole foods, exercise daily and do not put anything on your skin that you would not put in your mouth. That is easy enough to follow....good reminder for the low price.
Although very controversial this book worked for me and a few friends who were just plain stuff in the fat muck. I loved this book, I started it on August 1 of 2008 and a couple friends had already been on it with great results. You have to follow the rules but no big changes were made. I did not do everything in the book either and lost 49 pounds.I do have a doctor involved and he approved also, in fact it has helped my esteem and look 100 fold.The cost of the book scared me off at the store so I looked to ebay sellers and here it is book two for a friend who can't believe the drop in weight was so drastic she said she has to try it. I have alot to be Thankful for this Thanksgiving and one of them is this book. It's not a miracle cure, it takes years to get fat and can take a long time to shed but put your mind to it and you can do it. A little tweaking and it rolls off you like water on a duck. I have a friend using this book as we speak so let's see how she does with it and I will let you all know in a few months. Thanks for reading and by the way, it's an interesting book also, no diet to follow, just common sense. Misspiggles isn't porky anymore.Read full review
This is one of the most informative books I have ever read, about the food industry, and all the skullduggery that goes on behind the scenes, in pursuit of the Great Green Dollar. The diet part is confusing as all get-out; just go online and pull up Pounds and Inches by A.T.W.Simeons. He is MUCH less confusing than Trudeau is. However, the info that Trudeau dug up on the food industry, their use of chemicals to addict people to their versions of food, and how they tie in to Big Pharma and the diet industry, will literally make your head reel. It did mine, and I worked for Big Pharma for years!! This is definitely a book worth reading. Incidentally, my hubby went on the hCG diet, with the injections (much more expensive than the homeopathic drops!), and lost 25 pounds just where he needed to. The diet works; Trudeau recommends things that most of us can't afford to do, and are unnecessary, but if you read the book online, Pounds and Inches, it will explain it much better. To finalize, if you want the truth about the American food industry, and how they are after the money, and the heck with people's health, AND how the diet industry is hand-in-hand with them, read this book. You will be astounded!! I am surprised the guy is still alive!!Read full review
