I have to say, as a personal trainer (in training), and as someone who knows that intense exercise is key, the fitness theory behind Curves bothers me. 30 minutes 3 times a week will not cut it - to maintain regular health alone, even if you dont want to lose weight, requires 30-60 minutes A DAY. **

Great follow up to the original CURVES book that distills the Curves approach to getting and staying fit and healthy. Easy to reference and ready to fill in and use daily.

"Indulge yourself and be fabulous because of it" is the motto of The Hamptons--a 40-mile oceanfront stretch of Long Island where New York Citys rich and famous frolic--and of Pescatores diet.

I am so glad for the Hamptons Diet. If you take time to read this book and learn from Dr. Pescatores 11 years of practicing nutritional medicine, you will see that this is the future of weight loss. It is the first sane, practical approach that I have ever seen. I cant tell you how much better it is..
