Eat, Drink and Weigh Less



by Mollie Katzen & Walter Willett

Here's the dream team for healthy eating: Mollie Katzen is the author of the landmark Moosewood Cookbook and one of Health magazine's five "Women Who Changed the Way We Eat;" Dr. Walter Willett is the head of the Harvard School of Public Health's Department of Nutrition and the world’s most cited authors in clinical medicine. Together they’ve created a weight-loss plan that's not only easy to implement–with gradual shifts rather than quick fixes–but filled with delicious, enjoyable foods and more than one hundred of Mollie's fabulous recipes. To cater to those with a busy lifestyle, Willlett and Katzen offer a portable plan made largely of ready-to-eat and easy-prep foods. The book provides several supporting tools including a handy grain-cooking guide, shopping guide and tips on eating well through life's ups and downs.
