Hooray for Diet Cookbooks! I often tease my family I wouldn't be able to eat without them!
Currently I am working my way through "Hungry Girl: Recipes and Survival for Guilt Free eating in the real world." Its pretty good if you are like me and constantly pressed for time/ideas/energy. Most recipes can be made with things you have in your pantry/fridge and are things that I actually have had before (like "Sloppy Janes" -the skinny version of Sloppy Joes, or a low-cal Loaded Nachos!). As of this week, the second book from author Lisa Lillieb, "Hungry Girl 200 under 200," is at 2nd place on the NY Times Best Seller List. Check them out on http://www.Overstock.com.
The number 1 diet cook book this week on the NY Times Best Seller List is "The 5-Factor" with nutritionist and diet expert Harley Pasternak. Here he offers his "5 Plan"- 5 Meals a Day, 5 minute prep for more than 100 recipes and 5 short workouts a week. Easy to follow shopping lists and detailed photos with instructions make this book a best seller!
Number 3 this week is my next book to work through: "Cook Yourself Thin: The Delicious Way to Drop a Dress Size." Produced by Lifetime Television. This 3 star book offers easy recipes that help you "Lose weight without losing your mind." The ladies of "Cook Yourself Thin," a new Lifetime reality show, offer 80 easy, accessible recipes in this companion cookbook that teaches readers how to cut calories without compromising taste.
The 4th top seller is "Flat Belly Diet! Cookbook." by Liz Vaccariello and Cynthia Sass-2.5 star review. In the Flat Belly Diet! Cookbook readers will find:
   * more than 200 great-tasting new recipes for foods they'll love—like Rigatoni with Meat Sauce, Walnut-Crusted Chicken Breasts, Mexican Stuffed Peppers, and Ginger    Macadamia Nut Cheesecake
   * a 4-day jump start phase to keep them motivated with quick, noticeable results—losing up to 7 pounds and up to 5 inches from their waist in just 96 hours—with no    exercise required
   * a totally flexible program (with mix-and-match meal plans) that allows readers to pick and choose the foods they like and eat them when they want to.
5th on the NY Times Best Sellers List is: "The Biggest Loser Family Cookbook." Best selling author Devin Alexander proves that eating on a budget can be easy, nutritious and delicious! More than 125 recipes to satisfy every taste bud and complete, affordable meal, snack, and side dish options. Also inside are helpful cooking and cost saving tips from favorite contestants and Online Club members. You'll also find simple ways to get kids involved in the kitchen and fun ideas for family mealtime. Designed to make healthy eating accessible for everyone! I have the first Biggest Loser cookbook and while it is delicious, many of the recipes are rather time consuming. I am hoping this one is better!
Finally you may want to take a look at these long time, 5 stars best sellers: "Eat Clean Diet Cookbook: Great Tasting Recipes That Keep You Lean" by Tosca Reno. (Get it for $11.86 online or in store at Walmart.) Or "Prevention's Fiber Slim Down Cookbook" by the editors of Prevention Magazine. About $15.00 online. Or "The Best Life Diet Cookbook" by Bob Greene. Get it new for only $1.99!

I hope that one of these books makes "the cut" for fun and tasty!Â
Have a great day! : )
