(Jan.)\ \ \ \ \ Marie ClaireI wanted a healthful, long-term plan, but I also needed to be bikini-ready in just six weeks. I gravitated to The Mayo Clinic Diet, the trusted hospital's first-ever weight-loss book, because it isn't a rigid eat-this-not-that meal plan, but more of a food-pyramid inspired puzzle.\ \ \ The Houston ChronicleIt was a couple years in the making, and despite contrary belief, has never been done before. The famed Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., has just released its first diet book, aptly titled The Mayo Clinic Diet. It does not involve existing on cabbage soup or grapefruit, but rather is a comprehensive, easy-to-read strategy that offers quick results in two weeks, followed by habits and tips to maintain a healthy lifestyle.\ \ \ \ \ Time.comThe book gives helpful step-by-step instructions on how to evaluate ones current weight situation, set goals and get started.\ \ \ \ \ Womens WorldAfter years of testing, Mayo Clinic pros have taken all the best weight-loss research in the world and distilled it into a no-fuss two-week program.\ \ \ \ \ Library JournalThere is a lot to like in this new diet book produced by the medical professionals of the Mayo Clinic. Based on the highly respected research and clinical experience of the clinic's weight-loss experts, this guide brings together some of their best recommendations and insights for us all. It is clearly organized with a detailed table of contents, which allows readers to target a particular area of interest immediately. The layout is colorful, with nicely sized type, spacious formatting, and a skillful use of inserts to draw attention to key points. The "Yes, I Can" boxes offer reframing techniques to keep motivation high. This reviewer particularly liked the "Action Guide to Weight Loss Barriers" chapter that lists common complaints and excuses that prevent healthy lifestyle changes and offers positive strategies for overcoming them. VERDICT While not presenting groundbreaking insights for dieters, this smartly organized resource does one better, with sound guidance for making positive lifestyle changes that will translate to longer-term weight loss.—Crystal Renfro, Georgia Inst. of Technology, Atlanta\ \
