What is the Sonoma diet? Well, it is a least three things.
First of all it's a weight loss program book, second it is a cooking book with recipes to go along with the get slim plan, and last but not least it is a site where you can buy the first two items I've already mentioned plus a lot of goodies. Behind all these, the brain is Connie Guttersen, a Registered Dietitian and a holder of a Ph.D., an authority in the field of health nutrition.
The principle behind this weight loss program is simple, and it takes the positive things of the past in what eating is concerned, and adapts it to the requirements of current nutritional habits, also repositioning it geographically from the Mediterranean see to a similar yet more familiar place to all of us Americans, that is Southern California.
The whole concept as compared to other plans sets you right from the start into a positive mood, which is very important for any successful activity, by encouraging you to fully savor all you Sonoma diet meals.
