Fast Burn!: The Power of Negative Energy Balance

Ok. I'm 33 and just had my 3rd baby and I decided to buy this book after my mom lost almost 25 lbs by doing it once through. I'm entering week 2 of the book and so far its easy and the ingredients are very easy as well. Not sure what other reviewers are referring to being difficult about it? I should note I (and my mother) already ate pretty healthy and work out 5 days a week typically so its was not too difficult . If you NEVER exercise and eat junk all the time, yea, you will likely find it pretty difficult and lose interest but I cannot get over the fact that my mom in her 50s is wearing smaller jeans than me. Stoked to start the journey.

A great book 📚 that is easy enough to follow. It will take some grocery shopping prep & meal planning to be successful each week. The meal options are flexible. Results are real and the guidance will provide tips and behaviors that you can sustain for life. A few typos, but those are addressed in his Facebook support group.

Dr Ian Smith is a genius. Easy weight loss which is fun and easy. No calorie counting. Easy choices of good healthy food. I feel so good. Weight loss and inches lost. Great support team on Facebook. I’m so glad I saw Dr Smith on tv 3 months ago. BUY THE BOOK!

The book is very informative and easy to read. One issue I have though is a couple of typos I have to reread to self correct (pg 37 “During your fasting window, try not to go long stretches without eating”...should read “feeding” window). Also, in particular the recipe on page 285 shows serving size 12oz, serves 4. In fact it should show only serves 2, but since I am trying hard to follow ingredients and manage expectations, on a recipe it adds doubt to if I prepared correctly or it really is a typo. If republishing additional copies of this book, another round of editing before reprints, would be helpful to readers.

I just received this book and have already decided I love it. My only caution would be for those who are naive to fasting, there does appear to be a significant typo as to when one can eat. I feel this would be very confusing if you didn’t realize what it was “supposed”to say/mean. (We don’t eat while fasting.)There are a few other editing errors as well.Other than that, this is a great book with well defined science to back it up.I can’t wait to get started.Great job ! Great book !

This is a great plan with so much diversity whether you are vegetarian, carnivore, pescatarian or just want to get healthy and lose weight. Over the 9 weeks of the plan I lost 15 pounds and I am 63 years young with hypothyroidism. The food choices are great and this is a plan you can use as a lifestyle. Another great book by Dr. Ian Smith. I highly recommend it.

I had been wanting to lose a little weight, and when I saw Dr. Smith on Good Morning America, his approach really spoke to me. It has worked so well. I’ve lost a pound a week pretty steadily, and am just about at my goal weight - so I’m totally a fan of his approach and will keep it up! Highly recommend!
