What is in the book?  

The Sonoma Diet Cook Book is a complete cookbook that offers over 150 flavor-based recipes. It covers all meals, from breakfast to dinner (as well as sauces/snacks and so on). The recipes are designed to fit in with the Sonoma Diet structure obviously, with each recipe being labeled to its suited Wave within the diet (if you don’t know the Sonoma Diet follows three distinct Waves as you progress through, each allowing different foods and portion sizes). There is also a pullout guide that makes it easy for dieters to follow if you are out and about.  

Review  

The Sonoma Diet Cook Book is an extremely well designed cookbook for those who wish to enjoy weight loss systems with a variety of alternative flavored foods and also maintain a healthy lifestyle. The recipes cover all areas and there are enough there to last and be re-used over and over. There are a number of familiar favorites as well as original choices. The recipes include the typical details that you would expect, ingredients, expected time, detailed directions and nutritional information for each meal (great for those monitoring what they are eating). They are also structured to the Sonoma Diets portion control, which is critical for members of the diet program. 

If you are not a member of the Sonoma Diet and wondering whether it is still useful then stop. The recipes are attractive for anyone, whether on the diet or not and the book is simply a standard recipe book that requires no pre-requisites at all. You should just consider whether or not the serving sizes are sufficient, as the key factor to the Sonoma Diet is reduced portions compared to those Western Cultures are generally used to.  

For those who are on the Sonoma Diet already, or considering joining, I consider the Sonoma Diet Cook Book a must. The way it is aligned with the program helps dieters stuck for creativity when it comes to sticking to the diet. In addition the on-the-go pull up is exceptional for those who may have to travel for work.  

There are some criticisms of the book, which I have found to have a semblance of truth. The Sonoma Diet Cook Book certainly maintains a relatively mainstream offering of recipes and at times lacks originality. If you are looking for a recipe book that contains unique and extremely exotic recipes then this certainly isn’t for you. In addition it seems that while the Sonoma Diet Cook Book keeps restriction on certain foods, lowers your fat intake and portion sizes, there seems to be ignorance towards processed foods that may be considered unhealthy. Go try the Cookie Diet if you are adventurous. 

In concluding the Sonoma Diet Cook Book is well developed. It fits well for those who are on the Sonoma Diet Program or considering it, and can be suitable for others who just wish to embark on a healthy eating and flavored eating plan. That said there are some shortcomings and it depends on exactly what you are after as to whether or not this book is for you. Total Gym® Official Store - Endorsed by Chuck Norris & Christie Brinkley.
