EAT AND GROW THIN

Known as one of Americas first low-carb diet books, author Vance Thompson offers his strategy for escaping the tragedy of growing fat. Whats more. The Mahdah menus tell you exactly what to eat just what food values should be banked every day. The menus are composed. Each luncheon is complete in itself. Each dinner provides exactly the nutriment needed and in exactly the right proportions. And breakfast? Oh, we of the slim-waisted gracilities breakfast on a cup of yellow tea or a cup of black coffee or a dish of fresh, ripe fruit.
