Eat This, Not That! Thousands of Simple Food Swaps that Can Save You 10, 20, 30 Pounds--or More
Eat what you want, when you want--and watch the pounds disappear!
Americans spend more than $400 billion a year eating out, and behind each burger, turkey sandwich, and ice cream sundae is a simple decision that could help you control your weight--and your life. The problem is, restaurant chains and food producers aren't interested in helping you make healthy choices. In fact, they invest $30 billion a year on advertising, much of it aimed at confusing eaters and disguising the fat and calorie counts of their products.
All of that has changed with EAT THIS, NOT THAT!. This book puts the entire food industry under the spotlight, and arms you with the savvy tricks and insider information it takes to eat well no matter where you are. With EAT THIS, NOT THAT! you're the expert in every eating situation, from the frozen food aisle to your favorite fast food joint to your local sports bar. You control your food universe--and lose the pounds you want--because, unlike every other customer, you'll know the smart choices to make--instantly!
EAT THIS, NOT THAT! is jam-packed with secrets the restaurant industry doesn't want you to know. For example: * Burger King doesn't want you to know that a BK Big Fish® Sandwich and fries have a whopping 1000 calories--nearly half your daily caloric intake! (Fish is usually healthy, but not this kind. Find out why with this book.) * Pizza Hut doesn't want you to know that a standard pizza in Italy contains 500 to 800 calories, but the same meal at Pizza Hut can top 2,100 calories! (You'd need to ride a stationary bike for more than three hours to burn off this mistake. Instead, eat all the pizza you want by making smart choices. EAT THIS, NOT THAT! shows you how.) * Macaroni Grill doesn't want you to know that a single serving of their Grilled Teriyaki Salmon has more than three times your daily allowance of sodium! (Cut your risk of high blood pressure by making smart choices at the same restaurant. You'll find them inside.)
If only you knew the industry secrets, you could eat at any of your favorite restaurants--or chow down on everything from the company vending machine to your kids' Halloween buckets--and know that every decision you made was smart, healthy, and the best possible choice for you. For example, did you know: * At McDonald's, an Egg McMuffin® is actually a healthy choice, with just 300 calories. (The Hotcakes pack more than double that amount!) * At Krispy Kreme, all you need to do is order the Very Berry Chiller instead of the Mocha Dream Chiller, and you'll save 500 calories! (Do that once a week and you'll drop more than 7 pounds this year--without trying!) * At Chipotle, you can cut 570 calories out of your Chicken Burrito just by ordering it as a bowl (without the tortilla) and asking them to hold the rice. (Same great taste, but with 94 fewer carb grams!) * Choosing a cinnamon roll at Au Bon Pain over Cinnabon will save you 463 calories and 20 grams of fat! * In the freezer section of your local supermarket, a turkey pot pie from Swanson's has 610 fewer calories than a turkey pot pie from Pepperidge Farms. * In the produce aisle, you'll get twice the vitamin C--and nine times as much vitamin A--simply by picking red bell peppers over green ones. (Who said eating healthy was difficult?)
And that's why EAT THIS, NOT THAT! is going to change everything. It's time to level the playing field. We're all tired of sneaky calories adding to our waistlines, and having to starve ourselves or spend hours on the treadmill trying to burn off the damage. Now--for the first time--you're in charge. With this simple illustrated guide to thousands of foods--along with the nutrition secrets that lead to fast and permanent weight loss--you'll make the smartest choice every time!
The South Beach Diet Cookbook
Cardiologist Agatston (The South Beach Diet) follows up his blockbuster book on weight-loss with this volume of more than 200 recipes, a number of which are culled from the kitchens of chefs in Miami Beach and other cities. Each recipe is designated as Phase 1, 2 or 3 to help readers discern the segment of the diet for which they are appropriate. Carbohydrates are off-limits during Phase 1, but "good carbs" (like whole grains) are gradually reintroduced in Phase 2. Phase 3 segues into a less restrictive but still healthy eating regimen. Among the Phase 1 recipes are the simple Reuben Wrap (which calls for cabbage leaves instead of bread; the author notes readers "will have to have a 'rye' sense of humor for this"), as well as more complex main dishes such as Coconut Chicken and Sage and Rosemary Pork. Phase 2 and 3 eaters will find delicious options such as Sesame Baked Chicken, Crab Royale and Couscous Salad. Noting that a variety of foods and recipes combats the repetition and boredom that are many dieters' downfall, Agatston presents a wide array of choices, with plenty of enticing fish and vegetarian dishes. He also includes breakfasts, snacks and desserts, as well as ideas for home entertaining "South Beach-style" with a focus on fresh veggies, fat-free dips, shrimp and nuts for appetizers, and main dishes of grilled tuna or flank steak. Agatston leaves no stone unturned, even providing shopping lists and recipes for homemade condiments that forgo sugars.

George Stella's Livin' Low Carb: Family Recipes Stella Style
The low-carb diet may be a popular fad, but for Stella (host of Food Network’s Low Carb and Lovin’ It) it’s a permanent way of life. By the time he was 40, Stella weighed 467 lbs. and was suffering from congestive heart failure. On a whim, he and his wife decided to try eating a diet low in carbs. Much to their surprise, they both began losing weight while eating things they used to think were off-limits (like bacon, eggs and real butter). Stella never looked back after that. As a great food lover and professional chef, he wanted to make low-carb foods enjoyable and knew he had the ability to do so. Through much trial and error, he came up with what are now his favorite recipes, compiled in his very own cookbook. First, he explains his food plan, playfully stressing that he is a chef, not a doctor. He lists seven simple rules for following the plan, and then delves into his recipes. Each one has a personal introduction, and most also include helpful "Cook’s Tips" and useful inside info (like which brand names he prefers for certain recipes). Stella’s enthusiastic, friendly style is enticing, just like his food, and his recipes reflect his lively personality, making them doubly appetizing. Anyone who fears the dreaded diet deprivation will be delighted to find recipes such as Bald Calzone, Low-Carb Pizza, George’s Gorgeous Macadamia Banana Muffins and Stella Style New York Ricotta Cheesecake. Equally delightful is his claim that "when you’re low-carbing Stella Style, you don’t have to quit eating until you’re full."

Turkey Parmesan : Dr. Arthur Agasthon’s The South Beach Diet Quick and Easy Cookbook: 200 Delicious Recipes Ready in 30 Minutes or Less
Who said South Beach and comfort food were mutually exclusive concepts? Click on the pictures below to download .pdf versions of some of the hearty entrees featured in Dr. Arthur Agasthon’s The South Beach Diet Quick and Easy Cookbook: 200 Delicious Recipes Ready in 30 Minutes or Less.
Turkey Parmesan
PREP TIME: 10 minutes COOK TIME: 15 minutes
We love this version of the Italian classic. Pine nuts replace the usual flour
coating, adding crunchy texture and nutty flavor. Serve with whole-wheat pasta
for a Phase 2 dinner your whole family will love. If you don’t have Italian
seasoning on hand, use dried basil, rosemary, or thyme—or a mix of all three!
2 cups low-sugar pasta sauce
1⁄2 cup pine nuts, coarsely chopped
1 ounce freshly grated Parmesan cheese (1⁄4 cup)
1⁄2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1 pound turkey cutlets, about 1⁄3 inch thick
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 ounces shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (1⁄2 cup)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Heat oven to broil. Bring sauce to low simmer in a small saucepan over
medium-low heat. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
Stir together pine nuts, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning in a wide,
shallow dish. Season turkey on both sides with salt and pepper, then
dredge both sides in the nut mixture, pressing to adhere.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add turkey
and cook until coating is golden brown and juices run clear, about 4
minutes per side. If nuts brown too quickly, reduce heat.
Place turkey in a baking pan, top evenly with mozzarella, and broil
until cheese melts, about 30 seconds.
Spoon 1⁄2 cup of warm sauce on each plate and top each with a piece
of turkey.

PREP TIME: 15 minutes (includes marinating) COOK TIME: 10 minutes
Stacked up high and filled with smooth avocado, juicy tomato, and creamy
cheese, this power-protein sandwich is a South Beach vegetarian favorite.
Vegans can use nondairy mayo and soy cheese. If you have extra time,

2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon plus 11⁄2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced
1⁄2 (8-ounce) package soy tempeh
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
2 slices multigrain bread, lightly toasted
1 ounce shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese (3 tablespoons)
1⁄4 avocado, peeled and sliced
2 slices tomato
Whisk together soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic in a shallow bowl. Add
tempeh and marinate for 10 minutes, turning once halfway through.
Spray a medium nonstick skillet with fat-free cooking spray and heat
over medium heat. Add tempeh, reserving marinade, and cook until well
browned, 4 minutes per side. Remove from heat, add 2 tablespoons of
the marinade to the pan, and flip tempeh once or twice until marinade is
absorbed.

Black Bean and Goat Cheese Tostadas
PREP TIME: 10 minutes COOK TIME: 20 minutes
A fresh squeeze of lime gives a tasty, tart balance to garlicky beans in this
Mexican-inspired dish. Black soybeans are packed with protein and are
available in most health food markets. If you can’t find them, use regular black
beans.
4 (8-inch) whole-wheat tortillas
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 (15-ounce) can black soybeans, rinsed and drained
4 ounces reduced-fat goat cheese, crumbled (3⁄4 cup)
1⁄2 (1-pound) head romaine lettuce, chopped (4 cups)
2 medium tomatoes, diced
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 lime, quartered
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Heat oven to 400°F.
Lightly spray tortillas with cooking spray and place, slightly

The South Beach Diet Quick and Easy Cookbook: 200 Delicious Recipes Ready in 30 Minutes or Less
The 30-minute time limit for preparing dinner, popular with Rachael Ray and a host of other cookbook authors, has finally been South Beachified. It's just in time for dieters who've grown bored (or impatient) with The South Beach Diet Cookbook and offers easy recipes that help dieters stay on track. The recipes span all courses, including desserts. Most impressive
are the entrées and salads, particularly in their ability to riff on familiar dishes: witness Spaghetti with White Clam Sauce, Chicken and Avocado Salad, and South Beach Classic Burger. Even more inventive fare, such as Thai Shrimp Soup with Lime and Cilantro, is still homey. Adding to the book's unthreatening feel is its idiosyncrasies. It favors certain spices (cilantro, black pepper), vegetables (asparagus, zucchini) and meats and fish (chicken and shrimp). The ingredient glossary is surprisingly enticing, and the introductory material explains modern eating habits and makes the South Beach Diet highly sensible. Photos. (Oct.)
