I bought this book recommended by my GP. I lookes online and found it at a vert good price from WOB. Order process was very straightforward and it was delivered in a few days, earlier than expected. I'm about halfway through. Its very engaging and I find I want to keep reading and cannot put it down. Would recommend

Good book, easy to read, lots of information and life stories. Also has a selection of relevant recipes. What I did find a bit tiresome was that although the ingredients are readily available, they're not what most people would have in their store cupboard. His next book could be called 'Fast 800 from tins'. That would be useful.

Really good purchase. Physically the boook is in great shape and the content is excellent. I am thrilled to finally have so much excellent, well researched but really accessible material available to myself. I really do think thie ideas in this book should have redefined the way we eat in the UK but as mentioned, there are powerful forces at play to suppress this. Seems obvious that simply eating less and moving more is the answer to most common chronic ailments.

Awesome book!!

My GP recommended this book to me. So glad she did. This book is fantastic, so easy to read, all advice backed up by scientific data. Refreshing to hear advice by a Doctor who isn't afraid to test his own theories on himself. Am currently doing protein diet but intend to incorporate this diet long term as protein long term is just not realistic. The 800 is. So happy to have been told about this new way of achieving a healthy way of life. I have MS and have found that it is essential to keep your weight in a healthy range. Am also going to now purchase the 800 recipe book. Thank you to Booktopia for their excellent service and prompt delivery of this awesome book😊

BEST & MOST EFFECTIVE DIET I HAVE EVER TRIED - and I've tried 'em all!!!

One of the best books ever written on diets!! It is, for a pleasant change, actually doable, especially combined with 5:2 eating. People feel deprived if they "can't eat " certain foods for the foreseeable future BUT with this you are only restricted for 2 days per week. It is such an eyeopener when you actually start to count calories (which I have never done before!) and it makes you super aware of what you are eating on a non calorie reduced (fasting) day. Basically, it gradually trains you to want healthier foods, it's totally amazing, hence it's fantastic success. Also it is not just about losing weight but the proven health benefits are astounding and all without too much suffering! I love it and will always eat this way.

Excellent Book for Anyone, Including Those Who Do Not Need to Lose Weight

I have read a library copy of this book before purchasing it. Although the content is geared towards weight loss, it is equally good for anyone who would appreciate up-to-date nutritional advises, written in plain English. MANY doctors and nutritionists continue to push out-dated and scientifically debunked nutritional principles (e.g. natural fat and eggs are bad for you, and sugar and starch are OK). While it is written by a doctor, this book gives you what has been proven by modern science and statistically validated against a large number of people in controlled trials. Although the Australian and New Zealand edition is a tad more expensive, the text is a size larger and therefore easier on the eye.

Thanks for the Knowledge when I know why I am dieting and how good I feel it's easier.

Easy to read not too scientific but gives you the most important details. Food is easy to make not too many extra things needed for pantry. Good and healthy diet with a choice of how hard or easy you want to make it and then info on how to keep the weight off. Probably need to buy one of the recipe books if you want to go on the diet and have lots of new easy meals. The best part is the diet works quickly. Lost 51/2 Kilos from 23rd December 2022 till 30th of January 2023 and still seems easy.

Very useful reference

Very informative and educational. Dr Mosley gets straight to the point without bogging down with too much science. Reading part is about 160 or so pages while the remainder of the book has awesome recipes and tactics to stay the course. You already know you want to lose weight, this book gives you the 'how' and gives you even more reasons 'why'.

a must have read for anyone who wishing to lose weight

I was inspired by my Osteopath, who read this book from front to back. She explained to me how she believed the principles made good sense and decided to make a lifestyle change and follow this good practice. I too wanted to make a positive change to how I feel and believe this approach is a positive one to take. I believe in TRE time restricted eating and if you are strong willed and believe in certain principles then this is a good start to combating bad snacking habits and eating late at night.

😁 Losing The Baggage!

Read the book, followed the extreme version-800 cals. a day, been on it just under 3 weeks, lost 7kg. How happy am I! Recipes in the book are easy to make, have no special ingredients and are delicious with decent servings that sustain you till the next meal. But apart from all this I feel great because I am only eating at meal times, no snacking in between and eating only real food. After the initial withdrawals of not constantly sticking food in my mouth it's reasonably easy. I realised then I was eating, eating, eating out of habit and not because I needed it. Obvious I guess but still a revelation. For me this is no longer a diet book but a lifestyle overhaul book, yay to that!
