Comments on: “French Women Don’t Get Fat” by Mireille Guiliano http://weirdcombinations.com/2009/04/french-women-don%e2%80%99t-get-fat-by-mireille-guiliano/ a blog mostly dedicated to the pleasures of vegetarian food, red wine and the search for the good life Thu, 17 May 2012 02:27:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Kirk http://weirdcombinations.com/2009/04/french-women-don%e2%80%99t-get-fat-by-mireille-guiliano/comment-page-1/#comment-416 Kirk Mon, 20 Jul 2009 17:28:02 +0000 http://weirdcombinations.com/?p=202#comment-416 I've just finished "French Women..." on your advice, Jasmine, and I loved the book! I do think that Mirielle recommends eating a lot less than the typical American might as a way to control weight, which you sort of minimized in your glowing review of this book. I was excited by the various ways she found to make food and life generally more sensational. I liked her advice about not giving up anything in particular but just using problem foods in moderation. Her stories about life in France make this book worth reading just for that! And Marko, I do think that this could apply to men with the possible exception of not going to the gym. Guys simply look better with a bit of muscle tone and less flabby arms and shoulders, if you ask me! Otherwise, her advice would work perfectly well. Actually, I've lost a lot of weight in the past two years more or less doing these things that she speaks about without even realizing. Wow! I'm more French than I thought! Thanks for the great book recommendation! I’ve just finished “French Women…” on your advice, Jasmine, and I loved the book!

Men women and children could all do better with this way of life. Yes these methods would work for Men too. The concepts are all about enjoying the best life has to offer!
