I’ve referred this book multiple times! It’s great to start!
When I was interested in starting on keto, I ordered a bunch of books. Five of the seven ordered were useless and cheap (and the recipes DEFINITELY were not keto-friendly) but THIS BOOK was AWESOME and I’ve referred people to it multiple times since.Not only is it informative, but literally holds your hand through your initial three weeks on the program. I found the format (menu plans, tips, tracking) incredibly helpful and supportive. But more importantly, the recipes were delicious ... and easy to follow and make. While I’ve modified my diet slightly since (after losing 35 pounds in threemonths), there are many recipes I still keep in the rotation since they’re so easy, filling and tasty. I also love how you can make a lot of these recipes and freeze them so you have meals ready to go on those days when you just don’t want to cook.Overall, if you want to start keto, this is a great first step that really help you through the first few weeks - with tasty food!

Best of the best
Highly recommend this book. Bought this book, applied the diet, and loved the recipes. All of the recipes are so amazing and filling. Rachel Gregory is amazing and I’m hoping she comes out with more books in the future. Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge with us.

Tasty recipes, easy to follow
I've been very surprised how good some of these recipes are. I was a little worried that they would fall short in the taste department like so many paleo recipes/foods I've tried. I could never stick to the paleo for that reason--everything has no flavor! I've been in the low-carb world for 18 years now and recently decided to switch to Keto to try to break through a weight loss plateau. I can't say I've seen a lot of weight loss yet during the 21 day plan but it could be because I only need to lose 10-12 pounds. Unfortunately I think I fall into the category of metabolic resistance and my thyroid is most likely to blame. So I'm not giving up on this plan yet! Especially since I've really enjoyed everything I've made with these recipes. The weekly prep has helped me tremendously with feeling like I'm ready and eating well every single day. This is by far the most healthy eating I've managed to maintain in months. My only complaint is sometimes I get a little confused on portion management since the recipes only provide a total number of servings. I have trouble trying to figure out how much for each portion since there are no measurements like--"use 1/4 cup of completed recipe per serving." I try to eyeball it, but I don't feel confident that I'm splitting up the servings properly. Overall I'm very happy with this book. I've made 17 different recipes so far and I have enjoyed them all.

START HERE! Best Keto book there is!
We started with two other Keto books, and we were successful in losing weight. However, I went to the doctor and learned that I had borderline malnutrition and anemia.SO, I went back to the drawing board and researched other books and came across this one. HOLY COW this one is so much better! Written by a licensed nutritionist and fitness expert, recipes developed by a chef!The book has clear explanations of what you need to know to get started and motivated. Each week had a comprehensive grocery shopping list, menu for each meal, and recipes with alternatives for eating preferences.The food is GOOD! There are tips for food preparation for the week which are great for people with busy lives! Cooking times are minimal.I wish I had bought this book first.

Disappointed in Dough Recipes, Exercise suggestions
The book has some positive points, especially for a younger person who has little knowledge of exercise or meal planning. However, exercises like jumping jacks, push-ups and burpees and most others in this book are not appropriate for older or less fit individuals. I was disappointed in the selection, but I accepted it. There are three different recipes for Keto Dough. None of them indicates how the dough is to be cooked or for how long or the temperature. This is especially confusing since the dough is made of cheese, almond or coconut flour, and egg. It is unlike any traditional dough I have ever seen. So I have no guess how to bake it, or even if it is supposed to be baked. Other recipes appear to be workable, but I was very disappointed in the dough. I like that the recipes have nutritional information and appear to be friendly to the keto way of eating.

A great kick start diet book
I have been following the challenge now for 1 week today. It is very well written and the recipes are very clear to follow. My husband is coming around to taking on the challenge too. I love that I feel full all day. It is important to get rid of any non-keto friendly foods in your cupboards too. I find I can have a good breakfast, coffee with HEAVY CREAM...(delicious), for lunch, and then one of the entree recipes for dinner and be totally satisfied. I totally plan on staying with this for a long time! Lost 2 pounds the first week. I'm a 64 year old female excited to find something that is delicious, simpe and works.

The Best Keto Resource for Beginners!
This book is awesome! It's the perfect keto resource for beginners. I say that because it takes all the nerdy science that I love and puts it into words that all my friends understand! It breaks all the science down into quick understandable terms, helps you figure out macros, navigate meal planning, and has awesome recipes!! The thing I love most is that it’s realistic. Anyone else get a cookbook and you’re like umm yeah.. no because there’s 10,000 ingredients and takes an hour to prepare. Well this book is created for busy moms and working people. I was sold when one recipe ingredient was a rotisserie chicken.. nailed it! Get your copy on Amazon while it’s still on sale!!
