5 stars Great perspective 2010-05-06

Reviewer: Rachel

I enjoy reading how she talks about food as REAL food. Fat is not the culprit, nor is sugar used in small quantities, it's just overeating and all the fake food you can find in the grocery store. Eat real food, and in good amounts, and you'll not only help yourself lose weight, but also help the environment. Oh, and don't think of "diet" as a fad you use just to lose weight, but "diet" as a way of eating, a way of life.

Reviewer: L. Whitt

I like most things green if they apply to me. This book was fun - some of the same stuff, and some of it new, but fun all the same. I have both her books.

5 stars A Wonderful Start 2009-10-18

Reviewer: Cami

This book is very helpful even if you are not ready to go completely green. There are 3 different levels depending on the time, money, and energy you have to dedicate to it. There are even shopping list that are already written out in the book for each level. So no matter where you are in your commitment to going green there will be a plan that will work for you. Every little bit helps, as Sophie Uliano points out. There are also many resources on where to find the different foods that you may have trouble getting. Mostly though everything is reasonable easy to get. There are many websites that she also list, many of which have a store locator on them. Plus she includes many wonderful recipes that are not too time consuming to make. I highly recomend this book to even those of you who are just wanting to test out the waters of going green.
