Love Bob; Didn't Love the Book
I love Bob. Truly. I have followed his work for years and I believe in what he does. I was disappointed by The Skinny Rules series, although I did appreciated his nod toward the importance of protein and healthy fats in our daily nutrition, an important component for successful weight loss that many experts are slow to recognize. This being said, do not look at The Super Carb Diet expecting new material. It does reflect the current trends in weight loss nutrition, but there is no revolutionary information. If you do not research weight loss nutrition and still believe that the food pyramid is king, this book is for you. Follow his advice and you will lose weight. If you remain even moderately current on modern weight loss nutrition information, the only thing you will find new here is his repeated reminders that he is 51-years-old and an ongoing discussion regarding his February 2017 heart attack and how devastating it was to him. I still love Bob. Didn't love the book. I was really hoping for new insights and information and there was none.
