Product Description:

Yes, it's possible--and this book shows you how!
'Dr. Steve Sinatra is one of the top preventive cardiologists in America. . . .

--BARRY SEARS, bestselling author of The Zone
We're a nation on the go--and we're gaining weight at alarming levels. Chances are you realize you should lose weight and eat healthier foods, but when you're hungry and hurried, all too often you choose the drive-through over a healthy home-cooked meal. This breakthrough guide presents a practical, real-world solution that teaches you how to make healthier fast-food choices and save hundreds of calories per meal--without giving up the delicious taste and convenience of fast foods.
In addition to tips for dining guilt-free at all types of fast-food restaurants, The Fast Food Diet includes:
* A Six-Week Fast-Food Diet Eating Plan that lets you choose among 150 meal selections for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks from more than fifty of the most popular fast-food chains
* Valuable tips for business travelers, holiday revelers, and kids who are fast-food junkies
* Advice on eating well at food courts, sit-down restaurants, airports, and convenience stores
* Recipes for nutritious, home-cooked meals you can prepare in 15 minutes or less
If you cut just 500 calories from your meals every day, you'll lose a pound a week. That's 50 pounds a year--and The Fast Food Diet makes it easy.

This is a great book for someone like me who doesn't like to cook. It has a lot of the same cardiac health information available in other books and resources - decrease transfats and simple sugars, exercise, etc....nothing new on that front. But I do eat out quite often or raid the vending machine -- that's where the real eye popping information was in my opinion. One of my favorite fast food "healthy choices" was a sandwich that turns out to contain 720 calories!!!!! Nearly 1/2 of my alotted total caloric intake for the day - I had no idea! I think anyone with children, who resorts to fast food should read this book as well - just yesterday the little girl subsequent door told me that she had pop and french fries and chicken nuggets for lunch...would her mom have made the same choices if she knew the nutritional content of that menu? I finished the book feeling much more positive about the health benefits that can be achieved without constantly being in the kitchen chopping and measuring.

Starts off with common sense information and many things we've heard before. Talks about the author's decision to accept need to adjust food recommendations to fit within people's busy schedules. Midway through book gets into particulars about specific fast food establishments and selection choices. I wish it were more comprehensive and a little better organized. But suggestions are helpful and I use them all the time.
