Skinny Bitch

Skinny Bitch

Not your typical boring diet book, this is a tart-tongued, no-holds-barred wakeup call to all women who want to be thin. With such blunt advice as, “Soda is liquid Satan” and “You are a total moron if you think the Atkins Diet will make you thin,” it’s a rallying cry for all savvy women to start eating healthy and looking radiant. Unlike standard diet books, it actually makes the reader laugh out loud with its truthful, smart-mouthed revelations. Behind all the attitude, however, there’s solid guidance. Skinny Bitch espouses a healthful lifestyle that promotes whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and encourages women to get excited about feeling “clean and pure and energized.”

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Misleading Title but Great Book
I give this book four stars because it is very informative.

This book provides critical insight into the US food industry, and it is disturbing. I think that everyone should know what goes behind the scenes and where our food comes from. I am now a vegetarian due to the chapter in this book about the meat industry. This book did not make me skinny however. The diet advocated is vegan which is too restrictive for me. Also, my issue is that I know what food I should be eating, I just lack the willpower to do it. So, as far as being a weight loss tool, I think that it would help someone who needed help differentiating between healthy food and “healthy” food.

1 Star Angry women, eat something please
I have read many diet books, but I do not put this book in that categorie. It was the worst book I have ever read! Do they think that because they swear they are funny, or worse yet have a clue how to diet or what it is really like to have to lose weight? I would not recommend you waste your money on this book. I can’t imagine why they consider this a diet book, or even a healthy guide to living a vegen life. AWFUL!!

1 Star Skinny Bitch? More Like Become a Vegan Bitch
I have never in my life returned a book until I purchased this one. Completely misleading and inaccurate, this book is nothing more than vegan/vegetarian propaganda and provides little to no advice on how to eat healthy. And while I appreciate the “tough love” approach, the tone of this book is condescending and nasty at times. Real savvy women know that you don’t need to be vegan/vegetarian to live a healthy life. As far as I’m concerned, these authors are incredibly irresponsible people who shouldn’t be giving advice to anyone. If you really want to eat healthy, buy a book from an actual expert — not a self-proclaimed know-it-all and a ditz with claims to have a degree that doesn’t really exist.

5 Stars made me a vegan!
This book solidified my desire to switch from vegetarian to vegan, and I’ve never looked back. I’m thrilled with my new diet and my new lifestyle. I don’t like the profanity, but it’s their style. If you can ignore it, the message is important. I have a friend who lost nearly 20 pounds after reading this book and going vegan. I, too, have been healthier and lost weight. It’s great for those thinking about veg or vegan diets or those who just want to lose weight.

1 Star Not really a diet, more of an anti-meat campaign
I bought this book because I didn’t have time to read it in-store. And it has some good thoughts and some good research, but mostly they just rage against meat and “chemicals” in all non whole-foods type stores. So basically if you’re not buying organic Jo-Jo’s from Trader Joe’s you’re killing yourself and your family. I love Trader Joe’s and I shop there exclusively, but I don’t buy the “everything you ingest from a normal store is bad” thought. And their research is not necessarily substantiate. For example: Coffee.. they call it a chemical and how bad it is for you and how it contains pesticides, etc. The air we breathe contains pesticide – especially here in so cal. But also, Coffee has been recently shown to fight bladder, stomach, and kidney cancers. It’s actually a fairly healthy antioxidant and a fairly natural product. Not to mention our participation in fair coffee trade helps the economies of other countries. But whatever… these “bitches” are only out to sell their agenda… also their recomendation to eat “one piece of fruit for breakfast” is silly… it’s so hollywood it’s not even funny. Hollywood bitches who can afford to eat exclusively from fair-trade,organic,non chemically food at only 500 calories/day… of course are skinny bitches.. and they’re bitches b/c they’re hungry. There are thousands of starving people right in hollywood… they call themselves all sorts of things .. nutritionists, actors, set directors, whatever.. but they’re all a bunch of hollywood bitches.

On the other hand… the book did get me to mostly give up soda (i’m down to 2/day!) and i’m having vegies for dinner tonight instead of McD’s. So there’s a start. It did make me feel pretty nuts for eating the way i have been. But i’m not a fruit portion away from being a skinny bitch like these hos.
