Terrific Fat Burning Recipes for Women on the Go

I recently ordered this great ebook by Heather Picken and wanted to share it with my readers.
It's been my experience that many women are very confused about the right portions and meals that will help them lose fat and inches around their hips, stomach, glutes, and legs. Most women don't get the results they want because their nutrition is WRONG! That's why this book of simple to prepare, yet tasty, fat-burning recipes was created - specifically designed with you, the busy woman, in mind.

What makes this different from other "healthy" weight loss cookbooks is that Heather has taken the guess work out of figuring the carbohydrates, proteins, and fat women should eat to rev up their metabolism and start seeing quick, fat-burning results.

This ebook is full of great tips, suggestions, ideas, etc. to help you find the perfect snack or meal to fit into your schedule, rather than the other way around. I have never had results like this that actually attack the "fat" rather than just gauging everything by pound loss (even though that occurs as well).
