UltraSimple Diet--- This is a super book I would recommend to everyone. It really works! It is a healthy diet. Usually I get sick on them and this on I feel fabulous Only problem I have- no index. I like to refer back to the good parts. Wanda
It works for some and is helpful for others January 10, 2008
My brother and his wife have been on this diet plan for over six months and have done well on it. My wife and I considered it, but decided that we didn't want to make the shakes ... we like the mouth feel of solid foods.
Nonetheless, the book makes very interesting reading, and it is well worth spending time considering and understanding the author's points. It helped both of us understand how important it is for both of us to stick to a well balanced, low calorie diet with lots of exercise.
You really can't go wrong spending some time with the author and thinking about what he can teach you.

After reading the book, I decided to go ahead and try the 7-day Ultra Simple Diet. There is a pre-detox week which was not exactly "simple", but not the hardest thing I've ever done. The week of the actual detox was not hard at all...the food was good, I was never hungry, and I lost a total of 8lbs! I'm planning on doing this diet for three weeks (the maximum amount recommended) and then will begin the Ultra Metabolism Diet.
 Definitely not simple, not convincing December 8, 2007

This book has you taking supplements almost every time you eat, what's simple about keeping track of that? And taking a special bath every night. This program is not for people who have to work for a living, or when you're on vacation.
Its plan reminds me of the "Fat Flush" diet books. Also, like those books, it has you cut out the caffeine, processed/refined carbohydrates and sugar, high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated fats, junk food and alcohol for a week before the actual diet. How much weight could you more easily (and pleasantly) lose just doing this, rather than being on the very low-calorie, unappetizing diet that follows?
There are a couple of shake recipes that you could add to your collection, and maybe the soup recipe (it didn't sound all that appetizing to me, but YMMV), but other than that, pass on this book unless you can get it from your library.
It does work. December 8, 2007

Wow! Great diet! To start the diet, it will cost you around $100.00. Not much, considering you WILL lose around 5lbs on week one.
PROS- You WILL lose the weight if you do what he says. Bottom line.
The recipies are simple, and easy to follow. Not a lot of cooking.
CONS- You will probably do best at shopping at a Whole Foods or something similar; this can be costly. But what is $100.00 bucks considering the reward?
Sorry people, no Diet Coke or wierd alcohol sugared candy bars on this diet.
For all you people that have posted negative comments:
NEWS FLASH: you cannot continue shopping at Krispy Kreme and Starbucks with a Wendy's Chicken sandwich in your hands and complain, "...but the weight came back on again after I stopped doing the diet!!"
This diet WORKS!!! Thanks Dr. Hyman.
Proof positive that NOT ALL CALORIES ARE CREATED EQUALLY. This diet is high calorie, and you lose weight!!!
