Lose Weight Like Crazy Even If You Have a Crazy Life!: Life Lessons and a Breakthrough 30-Day Nutrition and Fitness Solution by Autumn Calabrese

4.0

This is a tough book for me to rate. Five stars for Autumn and her program - it really works. Rather than cutting out food groups or telling you you can only eat during certain times, it relies on portion control (and calorie density - fill up on your veggies!). I personally follow her vegan plan, and I've had great results. I also like her as a trainer; her Beachbody fitness programs are amazing, and I workout with Autumn 6 days a week.

However, the book itself....it's not that well-written (we can't be amazing at everything, Autumn!). It also somewhat felt a little like a commercial for Beachbody. I'm a Beachbody customer, and nothing in it was new for me. But I could see how if you're picking this up for the first time, it might seem like they're trying to sell you more than the book (they are). Don't let that deter you - it's a solid plan. But if you plan on getting a Beachbody on Demand membership, you don't need to buy this book. All of the information is included with her fitness programs (like 21 Day Fix or 80 Day Obsession).
