Going on a diet can be overwhelming not to mention intimidating! I was impressed by this book because it included so many things to help you succeed. I liked the fact that it recognized that our bodies need fat and that no-fat diets are not healthy. It explains the difference between good fats and bad fats. The couple of chapters discuss what causes us to gain weight, and the things that help us release fat. All the information was easy to read and understand.
A 21 day plan is provided with tips to help you be successful above and beyond just the diet. I liked the lists of fat releaser foods to help in choosing the best foods. All 3 phases have excellent menus for each one and included is breakfast, lunch, dinner and 2 snacks. The final phase can be used for weight maintenance once you reach your goal. The menus were not quirky or super unusual to me. While they were varied and tasty, I found them all to be food for “regular” people like me. They supplied many recipes for meals included in the menus. Colorful pictures of the finished product were important to me, as I like to see what the final product looks like. It also motivates me more to try it.
There was an exercise guide. It included walking and exercises. Nothing over the top here either. Just a few simple exercises that the majority of people can easily do.
One chapter guides you after your 21 days are up on how to lose more weight or maintain the weight you have reached. I found this very helpful. I especially like pages throughout the book that shared the successes and information of real people that had used the diet. Pictures included!
I was pleased with this book and how complete it is in every way to help you lose weight. If you are already at your perfect weight but want to just eat healthier, this would be a great book. Either way The Digest Diet gives you the tools, support and information where you will find yourself saying, “I can do this!’

What a great book for young boys! My grandsons love stories filled with action and lots of exciting exploits, especially tales of military battles. This book fulfills all those conditions and has the added bonus of historical detail. I found it very educational and fascinating to be able step back into 311 A.D. and share in the experiences and challenges of life during that time. It isn’t often you find a fiction book written about this time and even rarer for it to be a children’s book.
The story centers around two best friends, Con and Julius. Con’s father serves as a centurion for the Roman government. Julius’s father is a merchant. They live in a province on the fringes of Rome’s vast empire. It is a time that Christians are in danger of severe persecution should they be found out.
The boys inadvertently find themselves a part of a surprise attack in a nearby area. (I appreciated the fact that while the description of this battle was exciting and full of action, it was not gory or gruesome).
At this skirmish, they meet a Christian priest, Brychan, and become fast friends. At first they are not aware he is a Christian, but find themselves fascinated by him. For reasons they cannot explain the have a strong desire to get to know him better and protect him. As their friendship grows he shares his faith and how it has changed his life.
As the story unfolds, the boys’ loyalty to Brychan has an enormous impact on their lives and that of their families. It costs them more than they could have ever imagined and takes them on a journey they could never have dreamed of.
Their bravery and commitment to stand for what is right, no matter what the costs is a wonderful example to young readers. This book will not only appeal a boy’s sense of adventure but also teach some important character lessons.
