Don't bother. It is obvious that the author knows nothing about weight loss, nutrition or good flavor.I had my doubts when the very first recipe says that 2 cups of fruit is one liter. It's not, it's half a liter. It got worse from there.Each recipe mixed measures... with ounces, cups, spoons and pieces of fruit it is hard to know how much of anything goes into a recipe. There are no calorie, fat or carb values, and frankly with a recipe that advocates 2 cups of yoghurt in the smoothie - 2 CUPS! well that's over 300 calories! Obviously he has absolutely no idea about is needed for a weight loss smoothie. Talk about calorie laden - there is one recipe that calls for 5 cups of sugar and one with scoops of icecream. And where in the world am I going to get 80 pomegranates?I cringe at a smoothie with baked beans - erg. Oh here's my next gripe. Most of the supposed smoothies have no liquid. They are just recipes for strangely flavored yoghurt.PS there are no secrets here. Just lots of questionable smoothie recipes, some with appalling mixes of flavor and heaps of ones with stacks of alcohol. BTW normal people call those cocktails.This book is a cynical grab at dollars - thumbs down.I know I got it for free but I'd return it and refund it if I knew how.
