Get With the Program! Guide to Good Eating: Great Food for Good Health
Author: Bob Green
Bob Greene's bestselling Get With the Program! showed hundreds of thousands of people how to make a habit of healthy living and fitness. Now, in The Get With the Program! Guide to Good Eating, Greene presents a blueprint for a lifetime of healthful eating, with detailed, easy-to-follow guidelines and 85 delicious recipes.
Greene knows that you're not going to stick to an eating plan if you're bored or feeling deprived, so he's developed a program based on balance, moderation, flexibility, and variety. After you make the commitment to Get With the Program!, you'll discover the keys to boosting your metabolism. Next you'll take the four steps to healthy eating, making one change at a time: eating a nutritious breakfast, setting an eating cut-off time, redistributing your calories, and making healthful food choices. Greene shows you how to determine the perfect way to eat for your unique needs, how to stock a healthy kitchen, how to dine out enjoyably, and how to "cheat" without guilt.
Finally, there are 85 easy-to-prepare recipes that are as full of flavor as they are good for you. Try a Peaches and "Cream" Fresh Fruit Smoothie or some Buttermilk Blueberry Pancakes for breakfast. Salmon Burgers or Tomatoes Stuffed with Couscous, Cucumber, and Mint make a satisfying lunch, and how about Spinach Penne with Spicy Roasted Pepper Sauce or Baked Lemon Herb Halibut for dinner? Hungry for more? Satisfying soups, tasty side dishes (including luscious Mashed Potatoes), and tempting desserts, like airy Pavlova with Raspberry Sauce or Chocolate Almond Angel Food Cake, make healthful eating a pleasure.
The Get With the Program! Guide to Good Eating is aneffective and enjoyable approach to good health, good eating, and weight loss that you can trust.

Oprah's longtime personal trainer expands his "Get with the Program" product line with this calm, supportive guide to healthy eating. Greene reaffirms the tenets of last year's Get With the Program!: Getting Real About Your Weight, Health, and Emotional Well-Being-stay hydrated, exercise aerobically, strength-train and eliminate "emotional eating"-before turning his attention to good food habits. Eating breakfast is essential, he says, as is establishing a cutoff time at night (try not to eat 3 hours before sleep); numerous small meals and smart food choices round out his four main steps to healthy eating. Greene's recipes, which take up the latter half of the book, are easy and pleasing: Broccoli and Swiss Chard Cannelloni is full of the beta carotene he espouses in an earlier chapter, and Buttermilk Blueberry Pancakes provide "a healthy shot of antioxidants." He also presents deceptively healthy recipes for Paella, Wild Mushroom Grits and a delicious Eggplant and Zucchini Poor Boy Sandwich. Greene's tone remains encouraging throughout, and his cool dismissal of fad diets and quick fixes should soothe those who have hyperventilated for diet revolutions in the past: "Powerful change occurs...by taking small steps...each day of your life."
