Review: Some Issues
Rating: 3 out of 5

Some serious flaws with the book. First off, the title is a misnomer. Many of the recipes were decidedly NOT low fat. The author makes extensive use of nuts and avocado, oils, etc. I was surprised at the recipes calling for flour and brown sugar. More serious, there are no serving sizes indicated. This is a big deal with those trying to lose weight, if they were capable of correctly judging serving sizes, most wouldn't be overweight to begin with. Is one to assume, for example, a "large bunch of kale" with its creamy cashew sauce constitutes a single serving? The writing style was conversational and fun and I enjoyed her amazing story, the amount of weight she lost each and every month was pretty amazing...leading one to think that if it continues, the author has long faded away into nothingness by now.
