Amazon.com Review
"It is not only what you eat that makes the difference, but also of extreme importance is when you eat it and in what combinations," say Harvey and Marilyn Diamond, authors of this classic bestseller. Their program results in eating balanced, nutritious, high-fiber foods, making dieting "unnecessary and as obsolete as sealing wax." The Diamonds explain that body functions have a daily cycle: noon to 8 p.m.-- appropriation (eating and digestion); 8 p.m. to 4 a.m.--assimilation (absorption and use); 4 a.m. to noon--elimination (of body wastes and food debris). Fit for Life aims to return you to a lifestyle based on your natural body cycles. That means 70 percent of your diet should be "high-water-content foods"--fruits and vegetables--which facilitate all body functions. Consume nothing but fruit or fruit juice until noon, then eat salad and vegetables with every meal for the rest of the day. Two-thirds of the book is explanation and discussion; one-third is menu plans and recipes. You won't be hungry, your food choices will be healthy, and you'll lose weight without dieting. --Joan Price

• Great Approach To A Better Way Of Eating
05 February, 2010
This is agreat of book that displays a realistic way of eating and nurshing your body. It goes agains the traditional way of thinking and brings you down to earth in the sense that it makes one think and conclude scientifically and with logic that the real way of eating is with lots of fruit to cleanse your body and lots of vegis to take care of all your nutritional needs. It also explains in a clear and interesting way why meat and dairy products are the worst foods you can put in your body. I have been on the program for about two weeks and i have lost 10 pounds already and i feel good. Great book!

• Fit For Life By Diamonds
17 November, 2009
My neighbor has been on the Fit for Life diet for about two months with good results. She lent me her book and then I ordered other copies for myself and friends. It seems like a good way to go even though I do not have a weight problem--lots of fruits and vegetables. I am going to give it a try.

• Fir For Life
19 September, 2009
this is a new idea in eating plans (new to me). plan requires a change of eating habits, but is very effective. don't have emergency hunger pangs, and have lost 13+ pounds in a few months. would recommend to anyone. love having nothing but fruit until noon.
i don't have to rush around to fix breakfast. i can get on with my day and eat breakfast around noon, then lunch around 2 or 3 when i used to get very hungry. then i eat a well-rounded meal instead of snacking desperately.
there is also a very good cookbook by one of the authors, harvey's wife, marilyn, (although they are not married any more, they are still friends), that includes some of the recipes in the original book, and many, many more. ("the american vegitarian cookbook from the fit for life kitchen" by marilyn diamond) published more recently.
i recommend both books heartily as they have made a vast difference in the way i eat and the way i feel.

• Really Good Vegetarian Recipes
06 October, 2009
While this book has a few meat dishes the majority are vegetarian. I have several vegetarian cookbooks on my shelf but when I want something I know I'll eat because its delicious I have to go to Fit for Life. I have had it in paperback for years but needed a more sturdy hardback for the cookbook stand. These recipes are really good. Other strictly veggie cookbooks may be healthy but the recipes don't entice me and they end up sitting on my shelf. My parents are not vegetarians and when they first did this diet 20 years ago they raved about it.
