Product Description
No more counting carbs, calories, or fat grams! This revolutionary diet plan works with your hormones to curb your appetite, boost your metabolism, and take the pounds off for good!
Cutting-edge research shows that losing weight is not about carbs, calories, or even willpower—it’s about a hormone called leptin, and how it functions in your body. Leptin is your body’s natural weight-loss mechanism: it curbs your appetite, jump-starts your metabolism, and when working properly makes you literally fat resistant—you will lose weight effortlessly and efficiently and never gain those pounds back.
If you’re struggling to lose weight, chances are you are “leptin resistant”—your body no longer responds to leptin, making it impossible for you to slim down. The Fat Resistance Diet is the first and only eating plan designed specifically to combat leptin resistance and reprogram your body to start melting away the pounds. Using a breakthrough combination of anti-inflammatory and hormone-balancing foods, the three-phase regimen delivers:
A loss of six to ten pounds in the first two weeks.
A loss of at least two pounds a week thereafter.
Fun, flavorful meals that make sticking with the plan a breeze.
An easy maintenance program that keeps you fat resistant for life.
With over 100 delicious recipes designed for maximum satisfaction and eating pleasure, the Fat Resistance Diet is the only diet you’ll ever need—a brand new way to eat that will transform your body into a lean, fat-fighting machine.

 Help for inflammation, 2010-03-08
I've been doing this diet for the past 8 days with my husband. Despite being hungry a good deal of the time, neither one of us has lost any weight. However, my inflammation has gone down. I was recovering from pancreatitis and it is the first time I have ever been pain free in that area. Verdict is still out on weight loss, but there is no doubt it is healthy, delicious food. The green tea crusted salmon sounds gross, but is absolutely delicious!

My husband's blood sugar level is now in the normal range!, 2010-02-06
My husband's blood sugar level was in the high 200's. He and I both went on the Fat Resistance Diet and my husband's blood sugar level dropped into normal ranges -- even down to 94! The only thing we did was follow this book. Two weeks into the diet, my husband dropped eight pounds. I dropped over five pounds and, I feel like it was effortless! We don't need to know all the details of how the diet works, we just follow it. The recipes are REALLY easy to follow. I never cooked with so many ingredients, yet I have no trouble following the recipes. The Asian Coleslaw, Omega Blast Granola and Immune Power Soup are some of our favorites. And we don't have to give up red meat, so my husband can still grill.

 Too much flipping!, 2010-01-28
There is just enough information on leptin that informs but does not overwhelm you on the subject. The book provides a very good 14-day menu plan with delicious meals, which I have made a few of. I believe that a significant amount of weight could be lost following the plan. However, I found it too time consuming trying to make up a shopping list for each meal because the layout necessitates flipping back and forth from the meals section to the recipe sections, which are divided into individual sections for breakfast, lunch, dinner; snack/drinks; and soups/sides/dressings. That's six sections you have to flip through for each day just to make up a shopping list!
They do provide a shopping list for each of the two weeks, but I'm not going out and buy 20 tomatoes, 1 pint of cherry tomatoes, and 4 plum tomatoes all at once for one week. It sounds like a simple task but when you have to purchase a total of 31 produce items (varieties of lettuces, etc.), 9 dairy items, 7 meat/protein items, 12 pantry items, 5 nuts/grain items, additional spices and several miscellaneous items to have on hand, is where it is too much to deal with.
It has kept me from really applying the plan, as I just don't have the time to sit down and flip through the different sections for just a few meals at at time. It would have been nice had the editor put the ingredients for the recipes each day on the same page. I would have given the book 4-5 stars because the food I did make was very good and relatively easy to put together, but because of the complex shopping list and layout, I had to give it only 3 stars. I don't know if I'll ever have the time to work out this plan as much as I would like to.

 Didn't work for me - and totally unrealistic for normal people, 2010-01-10
I gave this four stars three weeks ago - well I have followed the diet faithfully and I have gained a pound.
I do believe that his eating plan is very healthy, and the recipes are wonderful, and it probably balances your system, but I'm sorry, there is no one-size-fits-all diet out there.
This diet was way too much food for me and too many calories! As for people who say calories have nothing to do with it, every diet counts calories. They call it portions, or points, or whatever, but it's all counting calories and it has to be adjusted to you, and how big you are and how much you can eat. Dr. Galland's recipes list the calories and he basically counts them for you - he just has too many for some people. I was bloated and too full with this diet. Of course some calories are better than others and different foods are used in your body differently, and chemicals are not good and fresh vegs are the best - all common sense. But there's no reason to spend a fortune on 6 different types of fish in one week (which means shopping every day or eating frozen fish - yuck), or spend 90% of your day preparing food and have all these leftovers in portion sizes that don't fit the diet!
Feb 1 - Just wanted to add that I added a star for the fantastic recipes. Otherwise I have ditched this diet and started counting calories - rigorously - with weighing and measuring and writing down everything that goes into my mouth except things like lettuce and spinach. You'd be amazed how the calories pile up with salad dressing, or butter, or two saltines. Anyway, I am losing 1-2 pounds per week and I use many of Dr. Galland's recipes. However, I pick whichever one I want. I still have that banana split thing, but I leave out the walnuts and half the ricotta. My banana split is 220 cals. My BP has gone down too.
Also, when you count calories you don't have to give up your social life. If friends want to get together over dinner - fine! (One of my dieting secrets is not to tell anybody because friends won't invite you out anymore and people at work become an expert and start telling you what to do.) I just look at the restaurant menu online ahead of time, figure out what I want, add in the wine and a potential dessert and figure out the calories. Then I cut back accordingly during the day. It usually means eating nothing but a huge dry salad for lunch but that's OK.

It works!, 2009-12-16
As a decades long veteran of the diet wars I've tried just about everything that was out there to lose weight and improve my health. The problem with all the past diets was that I was always so damn hungry inbetween meals. I found this book while surfing around on the internet. I've been on the program now for 2 months, I have lost 12 pounds almost effortlessly. When I am hungry I am genuinely hungry, I feel satisfied with what I eat and those drive-me-mad cravings for sugar or over-processed foods have virtually disappeared. My energy is beginning to pick up and my blood pressure has come down. The recipes are fairly simple to follow as is the plan. You do have to do a little reading at the beginning to understand the process but it is worth it. It may not have a glamorous title or be a fancy fad, but this program does work. I was skeptical of yet another plan but I only have good things to say about the book and program. Give it a try.
