- Interesting Information
Despite the somewhat obnoxious title, I enjoyed reading this book and think it has a lot of interesting ideas packed into its 273 pages. It profiles the typical daily diet and weekly exercise routines of 21 so-called `Skinny Chicks' ranging from US dress size 2 to 8 (the UK equivalent of size 6 to 12).

- This book motivated me!
I have read this book twice in the last couple months and it motivates me.
A lot of the info. is stuff we already know (as I have read almost every diet book under the Sun and then some) but it was written in a fresh way. I really like this author. I want to get her running book now as I am a runner and would like to read more books by her.

- Diet Tips from Anna Rexic
Skip this book, unless you truly want a lifestyle of never enjoying your food again and plan to work out for a minimum of two hours every day for the rest of your life. "Useful" tips include Exercise More! Eat Less! Become Vegetarian! Keep a Food Journal! Eat Protein Bars & Shakes instead of Food!

If you are considering or struggling with your latest diet and haven't read it, I seriously recommend anybody out there try reading Dana Carpender's "dieting memoir" How I Gave Up My Low-Fat ... Read More

- Best diet book that I have read in a while
What I like about this book is that it presents the consequences for over dieting. The first part of the book is about having a positive self image. When it presents the Skinny Chicks it shows just how hard they have to work to get the bodies that they have and puts in to perspective how realistic your goals are.
