The Secret To Low Carb Success!: How to Get the Most Out of Your Low Carbohydrate Diet
This book is the most helpful publication I have ever found on dieting (and believe me, I’ve read many!)
Rating: 5 / 5
I’d never had any experience with low-carb diets before, so I needed a good overall review of the risks and benefits and underlying principles of various proponents and their diet basics – and this book delivered. It spurred me on to further research to learn more about those that intrigued me. My husband, a diabetic, was interested in a diabetes low-carb author mentioned in the book and he ordered that author’s book, too, and is very pleased. This is a small but powerful book, packed with everything you need to know. I didn’t settle on one plan, but took what I considered the best parts of several plans, and I have indeed been successful. Highly recommended. (I also recommend Dana Carpender’s book, How I Gave Up My Low-Fat Diet and Lost 40 Pounds (Revised and Expanded Edition).)

I bought this book after I read the raving reviews. Now, after I read it I don’t see what is so special about this one. Just a summary of the low carb stuff she found on internet blogs. You are way better off with something more constructive and original. In my opinion any of the Fran McCullough books beat this one 10 to one. Hope this information will help my fellow low carb dieters.

I’ve been “lowcarbing” since January 2006 and was given The New Diet Revolution by Atkins. I had success, however, I JUST found out that some medication I was placed on two months after starting LC was a culprit in not only stalling my weight, but gaining 6 pounds. My situation had no bearing on the Atkins plan as I still follow it.
I stumbled upon this book about 4 months ago in a drug store–way before reading any reviews. The writer is credible, the writing style is not over the top on medical terminology. Once you start reading it, it is hard to put down.
Ms. Richard states the facts concerning each plan.
Anyone who is even considering a low carb lifestyle (this is not a “diet”) should really read this book BEFORE they start any plan. Although I started lowcarbing before knowing about this book, I believe it would help even a current lowcarber in the event that they may need to make adjustments with whatever method they are using.
The book is very inexpensive and worth much more than it’s price. It is a very good, down-to-earth, factual, non-overwhelming read.
I highly recommend this book as your first choice, OR your first read if you own other books.

This book was great to read – I had already started lowcarbing and really enjoyed the comparison of plans and the info on what to expect. It really shows what real-life low carbing is, versus what we think should happen. Makes you feel better if the weight isn’t flying off!
