From the Inside Flap:

Betty Crocker's New Eat and Lose Weight Easy, sensible and delicious—that describes Betty Crocker's Three-Step Plan to help you succeed in losing weight—without feeling hungry or forcing you to follow a rigorous exercise program. So, how do you lose weight and feel great? Betty Crocker knows how busy you are, so we created a simple three-step plan. Step One, Eating Smart, provides realistic strategies for putting you on the right track with positive eating habits. It includes charts with helpful information about calories, healthier food choices, fat comparisons and the scoop on questionable diets and diet gimmicks. You'll also learn about the Food Pyramid Guide, the dangers of eating disorders and how to read nutrition labels and keep track of what you eat every day with our easy-to-use Daily Food Tracker form. Then move on to Step Two, Energize with Exercise. Health experts recognize exercise as an essential part of losing weight and maintaining weight loss, but you don't have to join a health club or buy a home gym to make it part of your daily routine. Strategies for success include a variety of handy information and charts, such as the Target Heart Rate, F.I.T. Principle, Borg's Scale of Perceived Exertion, Calories Burned Through Various Physical Activities and Exercise Cheaters. We've also included a guide on how to be an informed consumer if you choose to join a health club, buy exercise videos or exercise equipment, take exercise classes or hire a personal trainer. And our Daily Exercise Tracker form lets you record the time spent and calories burned through exercise. Step Three is Go for the Goals, which deals with problem solving, establishing good habits and maintaining a positive attitude. Stay motivated by mastering the use of short- and long-term goals, making the most of rewards and dealing effectively with setbacks. Tracking your progress couldn't be easier with our Comparison of Height and Weight chart, Weekly Weight Tracker and Body Measurement Tracker. Seeing your progress will reinforce the motto: "Live one day at a time and count each one of your successes—you've earned them!" To keep you and your family satisfied, there are 196 great-tasting recipes from appetizers to desserts. We know how it is—you're trying to lose weight and that's when you start craving all the foods you feel guilty about eating. Relax—with just a few changes you can still enjoy your favorites. So go ahead, indulge in Meat Loaf, Mexican Macaroni and Cheese, Scampi with Fettuccine, Garlic Chicken Kiev, Turkey Sloppy Joes and Grilled Southwestern Pork Chops. They're all here, plus other terrific dishes. Sample Lemon-Filled Fresh Ginger Scones, Pork, Onion and Pepper Fajitas or Banana-Caramel Pie—all the taste is there! Planning weekly menus is a cinch, as Betty Crocker has done all of the work for you. Included are two full weeks of menus for three meals a day, plus daily snacks. Each meal and each full day of meals lists calories, fat and fiber so you'll always know exactly what you're eating—you can even mix and match meals to suit your taste. When it comes to making weight loss easier and more delicious, Betty Crocker's New Eat and Lose Weight is the one book you'll want.

Review:

Set short- and long-term weight loss goals and use Crocker's strategy to blend exercise with diet plans and recipes. Plenty of visual support for the recipes takes the form of appealing color photos of finished dishes, while the basics of reading labels and understanding diets are included in a clear, easily-digested book. -- Midwest Book Review
