I like Mireille Guiliano. And I like this `follow up' book more than the original "French Women..." This book is much more practical. It contains a medley of ideas for enjoying your life while still controlling some of the habits that you might not be so proud of. It shows you how to outsmart your weaknesses and to be creative. Don't do diets! Avoid snacks, drink plenty of water, use seasonal fruits and vegetables, etc, etc. Most of all: THINK. Don't let your gut to overpower your brain. Guilliano provides a host of interesting creative recipes that will make you enjoy each bite without feeling guilty about it. Keep it up Mireille - 5 Star!

Another great book that I recommend is "Can We Live 150 Years?" Written by another European, with easy-to-understand language, presenting simple ideas for health, weight control, and longevity.

To keep it short and sweet: what a great book! Full of recipes, insight, guidance and humor--you couldn't ask for more. Her writing style is simple and refreshing. This is the kind of book that can be a part of your collection for years to come for the recipes, the inspiration and a reboot!
