Summary: Not worth the money or effort.
Comment: Honestly, don't waste your money on this book. You can find more than what you can find in here through an internet search on google and it's easier to find as well. The first four foods I looked for in here, I couldn't find any of them. What's more, the nutrient information for thousands of foods in the UK is freely available for download from the Food Standards agency. It's called the Composition of Foods Integrated Dataset. Really, if you are wanting to lose weight, eat more healthily. or just monitor your macronutrient intake, this book is not worth the money.

Summary: Very good guide to take shopping!
Comment: This book is the biggest and most comprehensive calorie counter I could find on the market, and it contains pretty much everything you can buy from the big supermarkets. If you cook mostly from scratch it may not contain, or be as easy to find the calories contained in your ingredients, but as soon as you get used to the indexing system, you should find pretty much everthing you need.
I have been dieting for 2 months now using the smaller Collins Gem counter, and decided to invest in a larger counter to help lose the final stone, and I don't regret it. I take it shopping with me everytime, and it is worth its weight in gold when it comes to choosing the low calorie options out there, saving me from spending hours looking at all the packets!
I highly recommend this to anyone who is watching their calorie intake, you won't find it cheaper anywhere else!

Summary: Very indepth
Comment: I bought this book along with the 'hugely better calorie counter' and I haven't had much use for this big book. Although it has some interesting information at the beginning I found the index of foods so indepth it was hard to use. Especially if you cook fresh food....it lists tinned foods and ready meals extensively but to work out the calories in something you're cooking from scratch is very hard using this book. I'd only recommend this if you usually buy ready made meals and packaged food.

Summary: Brilliant!
Comment: Bought this book four months ago and with its help have lost 2 stone. Initiallly i found it a little confusing, looking up some of the calorie values but once you get the hang of it its great. The advice at the beginning of the book is excellent. Dont join a diet club! buy this book instead!!

Summary: If you want to lose weight - this is the way to do it
Comment: Hi folks, i bought the 2006 version of this book last year and i have to say that it has been easy for me to lose weight using it. I lost approx 1 pound a week since January by reducing my calorie intake by 500 a day. As this wasnt a drastic amount - i found that it was quite easy to do. So i have now lost a stone in weight ( slowly ) and so far eating normally - its stayed off. I think what counting calories shows you is where you are going wrong - for me it was portion sizes of rice and pasta, irregular eating patterns leaving me hungry at certain points in the day - i could see a pattern emerging as i was doing my food diaries. So if you want to lose weight - i can recommend this book - it worked for me ,
thanks Anne-marie.
