Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Dr. Phil, who once dispensed folksy tough love on the Oprah Winfrey Show, is now America’s favorite living diet guru, penning the bestselling The Ultimate Weight Solution and an accompanying food guide. With this companion cookbook, Dr. Phil expands the brand further, although the doctor, by his own admission, doesn’t "do a whole lot of cooking." Instead, he’s assembled a roster of "culinary and nutrition experts" to create his recipes, many of which are designed to mimic unhealthy favorites (shepherd’s pie, meatloaf, grasshopper pie), minus the salt, fat and sugar. It’s a great idea, but it can involve a lot of chemicals: Banana Cream Pie uses crunchy banana cereal, light margarine spread, fat-free powdered dry milk and sugar-free, fat-free vanilla yogurt, among other ingredients, to create a lifeless dessert with a medicinal aftertaste. Enchiladas with Barbecued Greens ask for both liquid smoke and packaged low-fat shredded Mexican cheese blend, which may cause some readers to wonder: why not just make a salad? Dr. Phil’s recipes are much more appetizing when he keeps them simple. His Herbed Beef Tenderloin is faultless, and his soups are uniformly delicious. Dr. Phil also includes some worthy, commonsense advice: exercise, make time for breakfast and get that ice cream out of the kitchen. He also includes a 14-day diet plan, which is nutritionally and calorically excellent. Readers who skip the desserts (Vanilla-and-Orange Parfaits made with tofu; Pumpkin Custard made with sugar-free maple syrup and sugar substitute) may find the weight comes off even faster—and they won’t be missing anything.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am evidence., Jun 8 2004
This review is from: The Ultimate Weight Solution Cookbook: Recipes for Weight Loss Freedom (Hardcover)
Many may disagree with Dr. Phil, there are always critics who claim he's out for the money and has nothing to back up his words, and that's fine. But I believe in him, I am 17 years old and my peak weight was 275. I did his rapid start plan and after one month lost 30 pounds.. it was a lot of hard work, but Dr. Phil led the way. And that right there is evidence enough in my book that he is fully committed to making a difference.

The Cookbook looks great and I will be sure to get it and use the recipes. Many of the people who don't lose weight sneak in fatty things, then they are baffled as to why they can't lose weight. If you don't do the work, you don't get the results. It's as simple as that, his plan worked for me at least and this cookbook is a good resource for phase 3, the final phase. After the rapid start it is easy to get lost, this is yet another guide and I am happy it is here.

4.0 out of 5 stars Change of Pace for Dr. Phil - A Colourful Fun Book, Jun 2 2004
By 
This review is from: The Ultimate Weight Solution Cookbook: Recipes for Weight Loss Freedom (Hardcover)
This book is a bit different for Dr. Phil. I liked his book - the thick recipe and calorie guide "The Ultimate Weight Solutions Food Guide" and some of his other books. The present book is shorter and more of a "fun" book, being just over 240 pages and seems a little more professional in presentation; he must have a new editor.

Most of Dr. Phil's books are actually a bit analytical and lend themselves to paperback because they are simple collections of his ideas, wisdom, and food lists. Here he has some fun and limits his recipes to over 100 or so, but most dishes are presented with a nice color photo - really an excellent series of photos - one per recipe, with a maximum of one recipe per page. Some recipes take two pages. The whole book is nicely done as an attractive package and gives an idea of what the dishes should look like. He presents a broad variety of dishes, well balanced for nutritional value, and covering many foods and the basic food groups. One gets hungry just looking at the beautiful photos. This does not compete with the "Joy of Cooking", but still it is a good book with lots of healthy dishes that do not seem too difficult to make. Makes a nice gift.

Excellent job - 4 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Recipes are good, but too much repetition, May 31 2004
By 
Patty (Issaquah, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ultimate Weight Solution Cookbook: Recipes for Weight Loss Freedom (Hardcover)
I have all of Dr. Phil's weight loss books and could have done without the first 50 pages, which pretty much summarizes the text of the other books. But, he says that there are over 100 recipes in the book, and he comes through as promised. I've tried several and they were all very good. Let's face it, most recipes that are modified to reduce fat content aren't going to taste as good as the full fat version. But, he gives it a good shot and I think he succeeds for the most part. There are some recipes that I would not make, but isn't that typical of every cook book you pick up? Overall, I'm pleased with the cookbook.
