Publisher's summary

From New York Times best-selling author of The Virgin Diet comes a groundbreaking program that will revolutionize the way listeners think about sugar and help you drop fat fast - up to 10 pounds in just two weeks!

New York Times best seller.

If you're eating healthy, but just can't seem to lose weight, you're not alone. Sugar is the single biggest needle mover when it comes to your health and the number on the scale, but sugar hides in places you'd never expect: Whole foods, diet foods, packaged foods, dressings...even sugar substitutes. And it's not enough to cut out or cut back on sugar - you have to cut out the right kinds of sugar. In this groundbreaking audiobook, New York Times best-selling author JJ Virgin explains the powerful concept of sugar impact: How different sugars react differently in the body.

High sugar impact foods cause weight gain, energy crashes, and inflammation. Low sugar impact foods fuel your body for prolonged energy and promote fat burning. This eye-opening audiobook pinpoints the most damaging sugars that we eat every day-without even realizing it - in common foods like skim milk, diet soda, whole-grain bread, and "healthy" sweeteners like agave. By swapping high sugar impact foods for low sugar impact foods, you will shed fat fast - up to 10 pounds in two weeks! - and transform your body and your health for good. Best of all, you don't need to eliminate sugar completely or count calories.

Prepare to:

  • Lose the bloat
  • Target belly fat
  • Rev your metabolism
  • Cut cravings
  • Become a fat burner, not a sugar burner
  • Lose fat fast-and forever!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Relief at Last!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

As a child of the 70's...when high fructose corn sugar became popular, I was the poster child of someone who became a sugar burner by default. I can now see that my diet was predominately filled with glucose and especially fructose. After decades of blaming my lack of willpower for weight struggles and health problems, this book has provided a clear path to success for me. I have been searching for years for the correct information and now realize the advice I have received through the years actually made matters worse. "Sugar Impact Diet" is an excellent resource for anyone who wants to stop spinning their wheels and start losing weight. Actually, the weight loss is just a bonus. The real joy lies in not craving something to eat every two hours and feeling guilty for it. The most amazing gift this book gives is the freedom to know what it feels like to be healthy and to at last, see the light at the end of an extremely long tunnel.

Simply Amazing!

Even though I didn't follow the recipes or plate recommend really well with not enough time to be ready for the diet, I've lost 7 pounds in 6 days! Love how she proves everything with studies etc and her good humor. Plus, simple tips on day to day eating with easy to do steps that help a LOT! Thank you for this amazing book and movement against sugar that you started. Highly recommended book for everyone.

Diet for health and life

Not only dropping the sneaky sugars improved my weight, but also gave me more energy overall. I used to be very depressed and in a bad mood needing to eat sugar all the time, always having headaches and low energy. After making only 1 week of this diet, I feel now energized, optimistic, without headaches, and looking forward to reach to my goals in life. I'm another myself, I can't barely recognize my new "me"! Totally recommend it for anyone either trying to lose weight or feel your health improve fast.

A health/nutrition lifesaver !!!!

This book opened my eyes !!
Just like big pharma & big med do not always have patients' best interest in mind, big food/tampered food are mostly concerned with profit regardless of the ingredients they use and the repercussions they have the public's health and ultimately healthcare system .....

Repetitive

narrator sounded like a robot. sometimes use the book to fall asleep to. material could have been said in half of one chapter. literally repeats over and over nothingness of don't eat sugar. that could have been said in one sentence.

Diet works!

Was a little put off by all the referrals to the pdf, but after I put in the time to follow it, it really helped.

No pdf attached to the book

The audible boom keeps saying look at the PDF; however, this book did not come with the PDF. I looked everywhere the normal PDFs are attached and couldn’t find it anywhere. So disappointed. Will be asking for a refund.

Additionally narrator is horrible - sounds too robotic. Too bad the author didn’t read her own book. She actually has a better voice.

Terrible

Nothing I didn't already know and your typical attack on gluten, GMOs, and artificial sweeteners.

All material should be in the audiobook

Wish they included all the material in the audiobook instead of constantly referring to the PDF

Exceptional Book

The content of this book is amazing if you are really looking to burn some fat and feel like you have tried everything else. It's well written, it's understandable and it covers all the bases from education to actual practical solutions. As someone who has genuinely tried everything this book has been a revelation. Next time someone tells you to loose weight you just need to eat less and move more, point them in the direction of this book, fat loss in the modern world couldn't possibly be that simple, it isn't but this book is an amazing blue print for actually getting results, loved it, oh and it actually works.

Had no issues with the narrator, think the book was read well and I managed to listen to the whole thing in quite a short space of time, very engaging, great content, well read.

I have subsequently bought the paperback so I can use it as a reference, there are online resources so you don't need to but it's helped me but loved the fact I could get the content delivered to me quickly just walking to and from work.

Very disappointed

Would you try another book written by JJ Virgin or narrated by Tara Ochs?

No, it is not written for the UK market. Too many facts and figures. Tara Ochs voice is irritating.

Would you ever listen to anything by JJ Virgin again?

No

Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Tara Ochs?

No one, should not be in audio

Any additional comments?

Good perhaps for the US but not for the UK. Did not enjoy and have not finished it, in fact put it down after a few chapters.
