Synopsis "The Paris Diet"
"I'm on a diet" are four well-intentioned words spoken by millions of Americans every day. 40 to 50 million people will go on diets this year, and 80 per cent of them will gain the poundage back before the year is over -- but that doesn't have to be you, not if you read and follow THE PARIS DIET. As Hollywood actress and bestselling author Noreen Nash and her able team of researchers and editors insist, diet doesn't have to be a bad word. "This book had its genesis in a sidewalk café in Paris over an excellent bottle of wine and some fresh shucked oysters," begins Nash, explaining how the city of Paris, synonymous with fine dining, inspired THE PARIS DIET, and how the mouth watering recipes with a French flair contained in the book cannot only make you thin, but make sure you stay that way. THE PARIS DIET is a 21 day plan which allows around 1200 calories a day for a woman and 1500 for a man. The meals are designed not only to be delicious, but well-balanced and nutritious. Every meal on THE PARIS DIET regime is varied; every vegetable is prepared in a different way, and no fish, fowl, or meat dish is repeated. On THE PARIS DIET, you can have the best of all possible worlds--good food, a drink or a little wine, and still achieve and stay at the weight you wish to be without suffering any ill effects. Included in the book is a concise history of French cuisine; how to end a meal on a happy note without piling on the calories; handling disaster with aplomb; why a glass of wine or a cocktail may be good for you; entertaining on THE PARIS DIET; romantic dinners for two; cholesterol and your heart; how to stretch the calories; longevity or slowing down the biological clock; fooling mother nature; cooking en papiotte; do it yourself facials, body treatments, and exercise; a crash course in wines; losing weight more rapidly on the miraculous "One Day Diet;" interesting anecdotes about French gastronomy, and more.
