Product Features

Grayís book concentrates on 16 different areas, one in each of the chapters. The chapters are filled with tips for overcoming each specific food challenge and give examples of healthier substitutes. Instead of laying out a strict meal plan or demanding calorie counting, the Denim Diet encourages dieters to break negative habits and replace them with good habits.

The Denim Diet clearly lays out foods to eat and foods to avoid, even including a table of all the foods to make it easy to know what to buy and what not to buy.

Pro’s

• Since the book doesnít offer a specific meal plan, it encourages healthy choices which can make a dieter feel better about themselves instead of feeling confined by a strict set of rules.
• The book is written in a laid back and easy to read style.
• Gray promotes healthy choices that are also environmentally friendly.
• The author encourages a more active lifestyle instead of a gym membership. She prefers to take the stairs and parking farther out in the parking lot. This focus may help busy people incorporate exercise into their routine more easily than getting out to a gym.

Con’s

• The recipes included in the book do not have nutritional information included.
• Although the book contains a variety of helpful tips, none of the information is really original. Everything you find in the book is just like what every other diet book says.
• Although the plan seems super simple, it may not work for people. Switching from fattening fudge and cupcakes to honey and fresh fruit might not satisfy everyoneís sweet tooth. People used to greasy food covered in sauces arenít going to enjoy the taste of marinated grilled chicken.
• Although the plan would probably work just as well for men, the book is clearly marketed for women, which can discourage male readership.

Conclusion

The Denim Diet sets itself up to be the solution to every womanís weight problem. Healthier choices are great, but breaking bad habits can be very hard and very frustrating. Frustrated dieters are not going to stick with this plan long enough to see results. Dieting takes self control and determination. A diet book full of helpful tips and tricks isnít always good enough.
