5.0 out of 5 stars great, April 28 2003

By	Zoe Winters (USA) - See all my reviews

I absolutely LOVE Denise Austin. Her workouts are ones that I actually can't wait to do. I've got some of her daily workouts from Lifetime on Tape. She is just so bubbly and energetic.

Self-confidence is an often-overlooked part of the weight loss scheme. It helps you to keep going knowing you can do it, and then you do. I highly recommend her workouts. Get her books on tape if you can (if she reads them), this is a highly motivational woman and you need this positive reinforcement. Soon you will believe it yourself, you'll know you are worth it, and exercising and eating right won't be a chore.

For the person who whined about all the stuff Denise does to stay in shape...has it ever crossed your tiny little brain...that the television workouts she does, contains commercials...so the taped segment may be 15-20 minutes long at best. In addition to this...perhaps she wishes to continue to challenge herself and build her fitness levels. Are you aware that 15-20 minutes of a taped workout program...are NOT going to be that challenging to a woman who is in the shape denise is in?

Following her program DOES work. And I don't think she's obsessed, this is her career, this is what she does...and if she can do double duty to give her more time to spend with her family and friends I say go for it. Some people are just too critical of others.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good Idea, but hard to stick to, Jan 20 2003

By	S. Wilkerson (Tracy, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have bought a few books by Denise Austin and I thought this one would be a greta idea, but I didn't really like it. The first portion of the book before you reach the 21 days is great information, but the meal plans did not seem very appetizing to me. She says that you need to stick to her exact routine for it to work and it just did not fit into my life and it has been sitting on the book shelf ever since.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for Beginners, Aug 15 2002

By A Customer

I thought this book was great! Delicious recipes that were fast and an easy way to get into a physical routine. This is for beginners though. For those of us who have been working out for sometime, the cardio-section will not offer you what you are looking for, even though you will learn where you should be working out in regards to heart-rate. However, the toning is great for all (Denise only uses 5 lbs. anyway!) and I really like the Minimum Daily Requirement. It usually motivated me to continue into my workout. She also allows a day of rest; something that I really enjoyed as well! Once through the book a couple of times, you may want to get her "Last 10 Pounds" like I'm doing. Good luck and remember "You are worth it!!"
