Weight Watchers New Complete Cookbook

I actually bought this for my son-in-law but then decided to keep it for myself! It has a myriad of recipes so even the fussiest eater should find something they like. The instructions are straight-forward, although I haven't yet cooked more than one or two things from it. I consider it a good addition to my cookery book collection.It didn't quite merit 5 stars as I was rather disappointed with the durability of the book - it is spiral bound which, in itself, can be a good thing but I feel the pages are too flimsy for being spiral-bound. I doubt it will be long before pages get detached from the binding during page-turning, which will be a shame. I think the paper should have been heavier-weight for this style of book.The only other criticism would be that a few of the listed ingredients even I haven't heard of and that may confuse a novice cook. I've put this down to the fact that the book is for an international market. That said, there are so many good recipes to choose from that I can't see it ever being a problem. If you haven't got the ingredient, just choose another recipe!Overall - a good guide for anyone looking to eat sensibly, whether wanting to lose weight or not.

I got this so I would have an easier time calculating points for homemade food, but it's basically a normal cook book except all white flour products have been replaced with whole wheat, all dairy products replaced with low fat versions, and in some cases actual eggs seem to be replaced with "egg replacement" (yuck!) I didn't need a cook book to tell me I could do that if I wanted to. So, not thrilled about that aspect, but, there are lots of recipes including baked goods that I think I will find handy.

Thought I'd treat myself to the US cookbook just to see there if there were any major differences or inspirational things.Recipes seem easy enough to follow. Had to look up one or two things just to ensure I was using the correct ingredient but was expecting this so not a problem. Easy to follow. For the money I spent it was definitely worth it. Plenty of recipes I haven't tried before or wouldn't have thought of cooking.

This book gives good value for money if you want a lot of recipes to help you with weight loss. However, lots of ingredients listed were quite foreign to me and consisted of food that I would never want to eat. Also there very few recipes for just one person - it seems to cater for large families. Generally - quite disappointed with it because it wasn't cheap.

I have made about 10 recipes out of this book it has very clear instructions and easy to use it has every recipe you would need to do the diet and is a very good price at amazon looked other places but caim back to amazon to buy as it was best price thanks
