Publisher Description
Forget the Fad Diets, Join the Food Freedom Movement!
Counting calories is out. All the food groups are in. Becoming trim and healthy doesn't have to be difficult or painstaking anymore. After trying almost every fad diet out there, Serene Allison and Pearl Barrett, creators of the Trim Healthy Mama movement, took matters into their own hands. Through trial and error and much research, they created the Trim Healthy Mama Plan, the breakthrough lifestyle program to help readers of all ages and stages get healthy, slim down and keep off the weight once and for all.
Based on the authors’ successful self-published book, this simplified, improved, practical plan shows readers a unique way to lose weight and get healthy by eliminating sugar, and still eating hearty, delicious food. The biblically-sound and highly effective eating approach centers on Satisfying meals (which include more fats and protein) and Energizing meals (which include more carbs and protein), as they are the key to success.
Scrumptious whole, unprocessed foods, including fats, blood sugar friendly grains, proteins, fruits, and vegetables, are eaten in a way that boosts metabolism, yet still fits into anyone’s hectic lifestyle. It’s family friendly and effective for pregnant and nursing mothers, pre or post- menopausal women, and also those without weight or health issues—even men and growing children.
The book includes menu plans, a list of key super foods to eat on plan, time-saving tips, and pantry stocking and lifestyle advice to help readers successfully reach their goals.
Join the Trim Healthy Mama movement and along with thousands of others, and discover the groundbreaking, easy-does-it, and delicious way to eat for health and weight loss.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Sisters and blogging partners Barrett and Allison leave some essential ingredients out of this pared-down version of their self-published Trim Healthy Mama (THM) program guide. Based on what the writers call "Biblical truths" and on their personal experience with diet and weight loss, the plan calls for a mix of fat-centric "Satisfying Meals" and carb-centric "Energizing Meals," suggesting that eating this way pushes your body to burn fat and thus lose weight. Other THM meal types and approved foodstuffs may be added to support a range of dietary concerns, such as the needs of children, pregnant or breast-feeding women, or vegetarians. The Mamas are sweetly encouraging, but the folksy tone they use will be off-putting for some, as will the plan's unstructured nature and glaring lack of recipes. Readers may want to bypass the book and head to the THM site and Facebook page, as well as to the THM-recipe-touting blogs and Pinterest boards that the writers so often mention throughout this guide.

Wish It Was an Easier Read
So much fluff covering (“explaining?”) The science that it actually makes it hard to read. I also could REALLY do without all the religious and biblical references. It’s a diet book.
Thank you!
Already lost twelve pounds and back into my former size which feels really good. Don’t mind the Bible references at all. Anyway thank you for writing this book.
But not for me
This book and diet plan has worked for many of my friends but not for me. I have too many allergies. I also disagree with the way they poo-poo vegetarians. Being a vegetarian for 20+ years has been a moral choice for me. My moral choices are not for them to dictate, or for them to claim that God dictates. I have started to eat meat again over the past year, but it is not a pleasure. It's a response to limited food choices.
Borrow this from a friend or library before you purchase.
