    Great recipes!
  

*by K***I on Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2014*

I'm a follower of Lisa's blog and so when i heard she's putting out a book, of course I pre-ordered.  :)The book is composed of several section - the entire first half of the book is dedicated to changing your behavior and way of thinking.  I didn't realize there was going to be such a huge section on just this when i pre-ordered.  I didn't really need this since I've already changed my way of thinking when it comes to weight loss so it was kind of pointless for me specifically.  HOWEVER this is a GREAT starter book for people who are starting to take notice to healthy eating and need tips on how to combat bad habits and change them into good habits.  If you are someone who is just starting out and don't have the time to google and read health articles online all the time, this is a great book that brings all the health and medical mumbo jumbo down to easy to understand terms that can be put into practice immediately.the second half of the book is dedicated to easy recipes, and they're separated into sections.  Many of the recipes in here can actually be found on her blog, but I think there are some in here that are unique to the book.  I like how she got them separated and everything is no-nonsense straight to the point recipes so I'm not spending a lot of time reading long descriptions when i just want the straight recipe.HOWEVER, this brings me to the only major con to this book.  THERE ARE NO PICTURES.  Aside from the book cover, there are zero photos in this book.  There are no glossy full color pictures of the great foods that we plan on making that are healthy yet delicious.  There aren't even any black and white photos to at least tell me what my final result should look like!  There is literally nothing in this recipe section that actually makes me WANT to try it - other than the fact that I love her blog and her blog got photos which makes me want to make them.In other words, the first half of the book is written like the book is aimed at beginners, yet the second half of the book is written like it's for seasoned healthy conscious cooks who already know what they're doing and just need to read the text and do the cooking.  Sadly, from personal experience, i know that back when I was starting out on cooking for myself, i really needed the distraction of colorful beautiful food photos as proof that YES just because it's healthy doesn't mean it looks like crap and taste like crap!The recipe section of the book is also full of white/empty space.  Since there are no photos, i would've appreciated the white space being taken up with preferable larger font/text size so that it's easier for me to read when i'm busy juggling pots and pans and dishes.  Some recipes are also spread over two pages (with a lot of white space), with the left being the ingredient list and the right side page being the descriptions on how to make it.  They could've easily fit on the same page (especially with all that blank space!!) and the book would've saved several pages (or perhaps added more recipes).I do like this book a lot and I love Lisa.  I check her blog daily for her awesome posts, and she has an amazing sense of humor.  I bought this book mainly to support her, but I have to admit, i was a little disappointed by the content, presentation, and organization.BUT as I said before, this is a great starter book for people who want to become healthy eater, but has let the intimidating recipes found online (that requires all kinds of gadgets) get in their way.

    The ONLY book you need to get healthy!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2014*

The title to this book is fitting.  I bought it just as I was feeling the most confused about what is "healthy" (organic? low fat? low calorie? butter or margarine? coconut or olive oil? etc.!) and how to be healthy and stay within our budget simultaneously.  Snack Girl's approach is practical and affordable.In the past, when I've attempted to lose weight, I've filled my refrigerator with low-calorie packaged products that taste disgusting.  You can imagine how long that lasted.  Snack Girl teaches you how to eat REAL food that tastes DELICIOUS.  For example, I don't love raw vegetables, so I never stuck with eating them in the past, but I've discovered that I do love roasted vegetables, and now I eat broccoli, plus other veggies, nearly every day (for the past several months!).I've lost about 15 pounds since I bought the book, but that is completely irrelevant compared to how I FEEL.  I feel healthier, and I feel like I can trust myself around food.  Also, Snack Girl convinced me that it's OKAY to start small when it comes to exercise, and I did that, and I was nice to myself about it for a change.  Before long, I was running instead of walking and finishing level 2 of Jillian Michaels' 30-Day Shred.  I love that this book helps me to love myself.My favorite recipes (I'm a sweet-toothed kind of girl) from the book are the brownie bites (that taste just like brownie batter!) and homemade kettle corn, but I honestly haven't found a recipe that I don't like.  I've told several friends about the book, and I just got on Amazon to order a copy for a close friend.My other "diet" books are being donated to good will :)  I use this one so often (several times a day) that I don't even bother putting it away; fortunately, I was given a cute, decorative cookbook holder for my kitchen, and I just leave it sitting there.

    Heavyweight senior citizen rescued by Snack Girl
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2014*

The doctor said lose 50 pounds, but with my 65 year old metabolism and three bulging discs, I was continuing to gain weight. Then my wife purchased "Snack Girl to the Rescue" by Lisa Cain on Amazon and we both decided to give the advice inside a try.It has been a worthwhile read. Scientist Cain guides us around the land mines of false product claims and faulty diet plans with the same scientific and factual trustworthiness that we enjoy in the product comparisons on "America's Test Kitchen."One part of the book has been particularly helpful to me -- healthy snack recipes. I am off candy bars and on to my current favorite, spicy roasted chickpeas.The chapter on how to become more active also resonated with us as senior citizens.  People our age have a keen interest in extending life, and Cain cites the research on how exercise can help us. "A scientific study of 416,175 Taiwanese adults found those who exercised just fifteen minutes a day -- or ninety minutes a week -- extended their life expectancy by THREE YEARS compared to those who did not exercise."I hope Cain expands the exercise section in future editions of this helpful book. Thanks to her, I may be around to read it.
