Dewey Decimal Number: 641.563 EAN: 9780399140655 Edition: 1 ISBN: 0399140654 Label: Putnam Adult Languages: Manufacturer: Putnam Adult Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 241 Publication Date: April 06, 1995 Publisher: Putnam Adult Studio: Putnam Adult Editorial Review: Product Description: Featuring more than 150 easy recipes using common ingredients, a cookbook originally self-published by the author offers healthy alternatives that taste good for those who want to control weight and eat foods appropriate for heart conditions and other health problems. Amazon.com Review: You know the drill: to lose those extra pounds that have been adding up, you resolve to follow a plan of rigorous exercise and strict dieting. You stick with it for a week or two, then--just when you're breaking out the celery sticks and rice cakes for lunch--somebody shoves a chocolate brownie under your nose, and it's all over! Author Joanna Lund is all too familiar with the dieter's roller coaster; by her own estimation, she has shed at least 1,000 pounds--and regained at least 1,150--over the years. Finally, she realized the secret was to aim for a healthier lifestyle rather than a miraculous instant weight loss. Pretty soon, she was cooking up new recipes that were low in fats, sugars, and sodium; easy to make; and delicious to eat. These recipes are at the heart of Healthy Exchanges. Lund's goals are twofold: to exchange old, bad habits for new, healthy ones, and to exchange ingredients that are high in fat and sugar for those that--although lower in such contents--still retain the original flavor, appearance, and aroma. Plus, she says, "If it takes longer to fix it than it takes to eat it, forget it!" Lund takes the deprivation out of low-fat diets: pizza, banana cream pie, and tacos are all on the menu, in addition to green salads, soups and pastas. Healthy Exchanges Cookbook doesn't promise to melt those pounds off overnight, but it does guarantee a healthier approach to eating that will benefit every member of the family.

Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Healthy ExchangesI will buy again from this vendor. Books arrived in a timely manner and in good condition. Rating: - Can't go wrong!A penny! You can get this book for a penny and there will be enough recipes here to keep you cooking for months! I recommend this book, as well as the "Healthy Exchanges Lifetime Plan", to anyone! Especially if you have kids or a reluctant spouse. They are not going to know that you are cooking healthy food, only that they love it! Rating: - Don't Use the "Diet" WordBeing overweight, I hate to even hear the word "diet." I have tried diets of all kinds and I just can't stay with them because the foods are not satisfying to me. JoAnna Lund's "Healthy Exchanges Cookbook: It's Not a Diet, It's a Way of Life" is a good book for tips on life and has recipes that satisfy even a big guy like me. I have noticed that since I have been using her recipes, I am shedding a few pounds and without doing the diet word. If you need to get a few pounds off then join me in using this book as a guide. Rating:  - Simple to Prepare and Oh How Tasty The Results!I bought this book a few years ago after seeing Joanna demonstrate some of the recipes on a shopping network. I was impressed with the simplicity of the recipes and the author's promise that every ingredient could be found in her small town supermarket. To say that I haven't been disappointed is an understatement. This is the book I reach for when I need something quick to prepare but tasty nevertheless. I have grown my collection of Joanna Lund books to eight, and my experience with this first volume is the primary reason for the expansion. Give this book a try. Your family will be pleased and so will you.
