The Nantucket Diet A Safe and Effective 3-Phase Program for Permanent Weight Loss and a Healthy Lifestyle

What is it about Nantucket that keeps people who live there so fit, healthy, and happy? Is it the nutritious food and the active lifestyle? Imagine a diet that allows you to eat your fill of classic New England cuisine with recipes from Nantucket’s top restaurants: Pesto Crusted Rack of Lamb, My Lobster Rolls, Pineapple-Raspberry Napoleon, and other mouthwatering fare. A diet has never been so delicious. Welcome to Nantucket!

Sensible, and effective, The Nantucket Diet presents a way of eating and living that best benefits your body and state of mind. For maximum results, you calculate your calorie needs using a weight-loss formula based on your individual metabolism. With the goal of maintainable weight loss, this program is a sound scientific alternative to fad diets and the drastic dietary changes they require, which result only in weight regain and frustration. At the diet’s core is a three-phase eating plan–termination of weight gain, weight loss, and weight maintenance–that puts you back in control of your weight.

The Nantucket Diet shows you how to

• eat right and live well without strict limitations
• lose weight–and keep it off–permanently
• incorporate basic exercise into your day–without breaking a sweat
• cheat (yes, cheat!) with a weekly “make love to life” meal that curbs the urge to binge (recipes included!)
• create your own meals and snacks, or take advantage of the sample menus and full range of meal plans–with recipes from top Nantucket restaurants
• benefit from a new understanding of essential weight loss and lifestyle issues–from insulin and carbohydrates to vitamins and supplements

The Nantucket Diet’s premise is that there is no legitimate quick fix to your weight problem. This comprehensive weight-management program will pay off in the long term with its goal of sustainable weight loss and a healthier lifestyle. Best of all, the food is delicious, and you’ll finish every meal feeling satisfied and feeling great!
