Summary: This Plan Really Works!
Comment: I'm a 54 year old semi-retired nurse who has struggled with my weight since my teens. Just let it be told that I've lost the same 50 pounds three or four times. Last May, I went to my physician in total frustration, having packed 214 pounds on my 5'3" frame. I expressed my concerns regarding my weight and my "classic apple shape" which has been identified with greater health risks. Now, being a nurse, I was not looking for any magic diet "pill" to solve all of my problems. I wanted a plan that would work for me. My doctor had no ideas for me.
A few months later, my daughter called me to tell me she was on the Fat Flush Plan on advice of her doctor. He had recommended it to her for the liver detoxifying benefits because of long term medications, but she wanted me to know about the almost effortless weight loss she was experiencing. I ordered my book that very day.
I started the plan on September 9. Since then, I have lost 28 pounds, over 14 inches off my waist, hips, and thighs. My cholesterol dropped from 250 to 172, and I feel wonderful. My energy level is greatly increased, I am never hungry, and I don't even want the foods I can't have. I made chocolate truffles and bon-bons yesterday, and didn't even lick my fingers--this from a self-proclaimed chocolate addict. I plan to lose another 35-40 pounds or so, and I know I can do it.
This plan is not a quick fix. It requires an investment of time since the preparation of fresh, healthy foods takes longer than convenience foods. The plan also requires supplements which can be expensive for some, but the investment in one's improved health status is well worth it.
I think the best benefit to being on the plan is the many friends I have made on the Fat Flush Message Board through ivillage.com. My daughter and I joke about having many new friends that we've never met. On the board, Fat Flushers share their triumphs and travails, and give advice on everything from where to buy good supportive bras to where you can get the cheapest cranberry juice and flaxseed oil.
I highly recommend this plan to anyone who is willing to invest their efforts to greatly improve their quality of life. It's been marvelous for me, and I want everyone around me to feel as wonderful as I do.

Summary: Great book!
Comment: This is without a doubt the BEST book on diet that I have ever read! (And I've read a bunch of them.) I didn't follow every detail of the plan, and I didn't take every supplement recommended, but even by just following the basics of the program, I saw incredible results. It did wonderful things for my complexion, and for the first time in... well, maybe the first time ever... I didn't crave chocolate or starchy carbohydrates.
I'm not overweight, but this book is more about improving your overall health, digestion, and the effectiveness of your body's functions. Weight loss is just a natural response to the positive changes you make in the fat flush plan. Whether you have weight to lose or not, I HIGHLY recommend this book.
In response to the previous one-star rating... the wheat and dairy restrictions are only for the first two weeks. Wheat and dairy are incorporated back into the plan as it progresses. Personally, eliminating dairy was a great step for me, and even when the plan allowed for dairy again, I chose to leave it out.
This is an awesome book with tons of great information!

Summary: Left me wanting more....
Comment: I needed either a lot more time or a personal chef to adhere to this diet. The recipes are tasty, but very labor intensive, and the demand for all fresh and often exotic veggies plus lots of fish, steak and chicken made this expensive. I did lose weight for the few days I was able to stay on the diet, but I was constantly hungry (and therefore grumpy) so my family made me stop the whole thing. I do like cranberry juice in my water, though.
