I received this product from the seller for free or at a discounted price for the purpose of a fair and honest review for future sellers. Please note my reviews are honest and unbiased, no attempt was made to influence my opinion and the information I have provided is completely based on my experience with this item.  If you would like to review past product reviews for reference, please feel free to visit my profile.  Please also be sure to like this review if it has been helpful in your purchasing decisions. Most of the book seems to pointing out mantras to turn your way of thinking around. Repetitive positive comments to oneself. Correcting your own mindset when you feel yourself veering off into negativity. I like the suggestions of starting new positive habits such as starting a journal and meditation. Very simple read with healthy suggestions.

I recommend this book.  It is written in laymans terms and provides a helpful, simplistic approach regarding establishment of a daily regimen consisting of body weight exercises and plant-based meals.  The author demonstrates how inexpensive it is to adopt these changes with positive results.  The book details, via component modules,  how to start or reinforce through incorporation of healthy diet plans, appetizing recipes, meditation, affirmation and repetitive work outs (without use of equipment!). The book was light with dialog, humor, and even philosophical insight making it a pleasurable read.

I bought this book because I think Sherri Shepherd is hilarious. As a bonus, I learned a lot about a disease that has my name written all over it. (I still fall into the "even if you don't have it" category, and this is the first information that has motivated me to ward off diabetes, rather than assuming that I'll get it eventually.) Ms. Shepherd's advice is practical, and the foods and exercises she touts are basic and fun. (No shameless plugs for foods or gyms or exercise equipment here.) In fact, as much as I love cookbooks, I wasn't even disappointed that the only "recipe" section was basically a weeklong food and exercise diary. The book is mostly a quick read, with some very user-friendly health science thrown in. Ms. Shepherd has made it to my list of people I'd most like to invite to dinner, with a family hike to follow.

This book is a must read. Its simple and easy to digest information, presented in a practical way and most of all the Gordana is honest about her own journey - and makes us believe that it is possible to get healthy and strong without any gimmicks..just shifting perspective and mindset - thank you Gordana for doing what you do!

This book is for normal people! Wow, what a concept!

I love books that are short and sweet and to the point. This one really fits the bill, giving people what they need to start making progress right now and continuing to make progress week after week.

The book focuses on the the healthy habits needed to lose weight and keep it off, without overwhelming people with nutrition info (most don't care, anyway).

I bought the audiobook, and I listened to this book while walking, and was able to get what I needed just fine.

This book is perfect for those who want to understand whole health, attempt to live a healthy lifestyle, and not feel burdened with diets or unrealistic eating habits. Sarah gives practical advice in easy to understand terms with relatable scenarios. I have been implementing many of Sarah's suggestions for not only myself, but the entire family! It's a great read for revitalizing the mind, body and soul. I plan to refer back to many chapters over and over again. I highly recommend this book!

I love the simplicity of this book and it's contents. It is small enough to tuck into my purse so I can grocery shop based on what I feel like making for my weeks meals. She hits the nail on the head with food prep being the key to success and spending some time at the gym or in your own home doing the fitness part. It's an easy read, not complicated ingredients or recipes. I have tried a couple of them and have modified my own spin on them using the basic principles. I am so glad I picked this up recently.... my New Year is off to a healthy start.

I'm well aware that my diet could and should be better, so every time a free book like this appears I check it out.
This book explains the benefits of clean eating then covers the foods you should eat, detailing the vitamins they provide and why they're good for you.
There's then a small selection of recipes, not enought but a good start. The author offer many practical, easy to implement tips that I found to be very helpful.
Eating clean is basically a healthy balanced diet that includes all the food groups while avoiding highly processed and sugary foods.
A list of recommended foods to eat is provided with explanations of what each provides and how it can improve your health.
I found this to be a very easy to follow book that is filled with great tips on how to develop healthy eating habits.
Several easy to follow recipes are also provided.
I received this item at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. The words expressed about are that of my own.

I recommend this book for everyone who is health conscious.

This book was just what I needed to add a few new healthy recipes to my diet! I have a friend who was trying to find a way to move towards a healthier lifestyle so when I showed her the book she too found value in the book!

YUM by Daina Kalnins explores and explains nutrition and healthy lifestyles for pre-teens and kids, including how to get all of the vital vitamins every day, why eating junk food constantly isn't good, and how to keep your body healthy.

It's done in a way that's easy to understand and follow, making it simple for anyone to get a head start on a healthy lifestyle.

YUM is probably one of the best books I've read on nutrition. Usually, they're a chore to read and impossible to comprehend, but this one was different. It was written so that everyone can read it, not just those who understand doctor lingo.

Plus, it was full of interesting tidbits (did you know that dark chocolate is actually GOOD for you?) that made it much more fun to read. If you or somebody you know is looking to understand all things health-related, this book is the way to go.

This book has the latest nutritional information presented in a fun easy read! The author challenges us with the basic message that we put our time, efforts and energy into the process of what we wear. So why not do this with what we eat and develop our own personalized nutritional needs and healthy food choices?
The author encourages us to enjoy eating healthy choices and teaches us what portion control really means. The book gives us simple steps such as food basics to have in our homes with practical suggestions on how, what and where to shop. We learn step by step how to create healthy eating in our kitchens and advice for out of the house. This is not a cookie cutter, "one size fits all" book. Many suggestions are made for different life styles.
The author draws from her life experiences and observations of her clients during her career as a professional nutritionist. She uses interesting stories that we can identify with and be motivated by.
There is an impressive bibliography that provides scientific and websites for more information.
This book is both captivating and motivating. It has motivated me directly. I now enjoy my food shopping and cooking much more!

KINDLE VERSION: The formatting is good and I love that I can highlight and bookmark important information. A paper copy would be nice, but this works better for my situation and doesn't take up much space.  :-)

CONTENT: The book is fairly concise and does a good job detailing the plan and does not get bogged down.
*It includes a short story-type description of common backgrounds of people looking for options, which will help many relate to what they are doing right and wrong.
*The food plan basics are repeated throughout the book which may not be necessary but is VERY helpful in getting your mind around it.
*The principles are backed up with both science and Scripture to demonstrate the rationale and benefits.
*I love that there is a recap at the end of the book so the information is available in one place - no need to go "flipping pages" to find what you need.

THE PROGRAM:  The principles of the program are common-sense, balanced, and easy to apply. There are no extremes and no guilt inflicted for mistakes. No calorie counting. The emphasis is on good health which, for many, includes weight loss.
While written from a Christian point-of-view, it certainly does not exclude people with other beliefs.

BOTTOM LINE:  I was inspired by my daughter's 15 pound loss in two months and her better health to look into THM. I am just getting started, but find it is fairly easy to adjust to and my meals are healthier and taste good. My husband likes the food choices and will, hopefully, be completely on board with it soon. I have not purchased a cookbook yet, but have found some helpful recipes on Pinterest and on the Trim Healthy Mama website.
