Amazon.com A portable companion to the larger Abs Diet: The Six-Week Plan to Flatten Your Stomach and Keep You Lean for Life, this friendly little guide fulfills several purposes. First, The Abs Diet Eat Right Every Time Guide condenses the "power foods" recommended by the diet--a nutritionally sound mix of lean proteins, whole grains, fresh vegetables, fruit and monounsaturated fats--into easy-to-read lists that will help with daily purchasing habits. Second, a number of "Abs Diet Endorsements" are included to help you make proper food choices, even if you're grabbing lunch from a vending machine or food court. Lastly, it offers up a tidy handful of new recipes for wraps, snacks and smoothies along with a short-n-sweet workout. In other words, it supplies everything you need from a diet book to manage the diet on a day-to-day basis. The casual hanging-with-the-boys style could be your favorite thing about it, or what drives you crazy. Phrases like "Skipping breakfast is like arguing with the cops; there's absolutely nothing good that can come out of it" can either help reinforce the basics or just make you want to get far, far away from the rest of the jokes, such as, "Oatmeal is the Bo Derek of your pantry--it's a perfect 10". The ultimate goal is uncovering your own six pack, and benefits like lower blood pressure seem less important than waist size. There's something to be said for to-the-point surface goals, but your attitude about image will likely determine your attitude about the book's usefulness. --Jill Lightner
Product Description
Smart Eating Choices – Made Simple!
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS HAVE CHANGED THEIR BODIES – AND THEIR LIVES – with the help of The Abs Diet, the New York Times bestseller from David Zinczenko, editor-in-chief of Men’s Health magazine.
The principles of The Abs Diet are simple: Eat more healthy food – six delicious meals a day – and crowd out the bad stuff that’s making you fat. The Abs Diet has been proven to strip off 10, 15, even 20 pounds of flab – from your belly first – in six weeks or less.
Now, Zinczenko makes eating smart and healthy easy with this eye opening portable weight-loss manual, THE ABS DIET EAT RIGHT EVERY TIME GUIDE. This on-the-go guide pinpoints the foods you should choose to burn away belly fat no matter where you are – at home, in the supermarket, even at the fast-food counter. And it reveals the hidden killers that are adding inches to your waistline and taking years off your life!
Discover these amazing weight-loss secrets:
Should you toast a bagel or an English muffin? Did you know that making the wrong choice will cost you 150 extra calories? What’s healthier – a bean burrito or a taco salad? Would you believe the healthy salad will pile 130 more calories onto your plate? Which will make you fatter – a Whopper or a Big Mac? You’ll be stunned to discover the shocking truth!
Learn why a hot fudge sundae is a treat you should eat, why potato chips are better for you than french fries, and why Swiss cheese is three times healthier than Cheddar.
You don’t have time for complicated plans or fancy recipes. In THE ABS DIET EAT RIGHT EVERY TIME GUIDE, Zinczenko tells you how to strip away belly fat in every situation – from the frozen food aisle to the deli, from a five-star restaurant to the drive-thru. On-the-go eating doesn’t have to end up on your gut.

Compact version of "The Abs Diet" + a Grocery List June 3, 2008 The author spends a decent amount of time re-hashing what was said in the first book, but then gets more in depth with a grocery list, recipes, and good choices when eating out. I would recommend either book since you don't really need both unless you are really trying to get into it full force. This book has marginally more info, and the biggest difference between the this and the original is that this one expands on the eating plan somewhat substantially while minimizing the focus on physical exercise. The greatest advantage I find with this book is that it packs the most information in the smallest amount of space which would make it a more convenient guide to carry with you. I'm not sure about the people who think this book isn't as helpful as the original, but I don't have the Abs Diet Power 12 memorized yet and wish that I had this book with me when I went to the grocery store earlier today.

I have been working on my baby belly for almost 9 months but I wasn't eating right. I saw this book for less than $2 so I bought it. It's like a food bible. I love it!

The Abs Diet and eating right... September 21, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Abs Diet Eat Right Every Time Guide The book is helpful, informative, and easy to follow - even with a very busy lifestyle. I recommend it to anyone who doesn't feel they have the time to eat healthy. The home recipies are good, and you are provided with a list of known restaurants and eateries so you know what to choose when dining out. Mr. Zinczenko and Mr. Spiker also provide a full nutritional chart for every item listed and a shopping list. It's not a book you will put in your bookcase and forget.
