Product Description
From the #1 bestselling author of The T-factor Diet...a special audio program that could save your life! The opportunity of a lifetime. Everyone knows the grim statistics on smoking. So what's your excuse for not quitting? If you are like millions of Americans, the prospect or fear of gaining weight after quitting may be the major factor. If so, this audio can help you change your life. Quitting smoking is the single most important step you can take for the sake of your health, but going on a diet to control your weight after you have quit is one of the worst things you can do! Research shows that dieting can increase both your craving for cigarettes and the addictive properties of nicotine -- while not addressing the metabolic changes that can cause post-smoking weight gain. In this deluxe audio adaptation of How To Quit Smoking Without Gaining Weight, Martin Katahn presents a safe, simple program based on the latest scientific research in metabolism, biochemistry, and smoking cessation. You'll learn how to tailor this valuable information to your situation on cassette one; then, on cassette two, you'll learn techniques for deep muscle relaxation that you can turn to again and again for help keeping away from cigarettes and keeping off the extra pounds. No matter how often you have tried and failed, this special program is an invaluable tool to help you quit smoking once and for all.

 So-so July 11, 2007
There are better quit smoking references out there. I don't think the author should have started out with how hard it is to quit smoking. I had more cravings while reading those chapters than during my first week quit.
I give 2 stars only because it is accurate in the fact of the body fat/carb chemistry changing.
 This book works if you're a need-to-know type November 2, 1999

This book prepared me for what to expect -- what stages my cravings would go through and why, and for how long. It let me know why I might or might not gain weight and what I needed to do to counteract that. The book provided the tools for understanding the physical repercussions of quitting. I guess forewarned is forearmed.
A standard, formulaic diet book January 12, 1999

This book doesn't quite live up to its title. The skimpy info on the special problems smokers run into with regard to weight management (which most people already know if they've read anything about it in newspapers or in the smoking-related Newsgroups) is heavily padded out with pages and pages of standard fat-content charts and blank charts to fill out as part of the author's "7+7" weight program. This gimmicky program essentially states: Eat less fat and exercise. The information on smoking cessation programs is also very dated; Zyban/Wellbutrin are not mentioned, and the nicotine patch seems to have been almost an experimental technique when this book was written. This little book seems like it was cranked out as a quick money-maker--a standard, formulaic diet book with a few cliched statements about smoking thrown in.
