ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
Discover the hidden culprit behind the 'middle-age spread'--and the simple plan that's helped hundreds of women over 30 break the fat cycle!
It's an all-too-common problem once you hit thirty: Despite your best efforts, you just can't seem to lose the extra weight around your middle, and you look in the mirror wondering what month and year you lost your waistline. Medical research proves you're not alone--that the average American gains one to two pounds a year after age thirty--usually around the stomach. Not only does this excess belly fat make you look and feel bad, it's the most damaging kind of fat; a precursor to heart attacks and certain types of cancer.
To the contrary of other diet books, C.W. Randolph, M.D., a champion for women's health, explains that the real reason behind this problem has less to do with calories, carbs, or crunches and everything to do with a little-known but very real medical problem called 'estrogen dominance.' By treating thousands of women safely and effectively for over two decades, Dr. Randolph has discovered why we are in the midst of an estrogen epidemic and how you can save your waistline . . . and your health . . . using his 3-step plan comprised of an anti-estrogenic diet, natural progesterone supplementation, and exercise. You'll learn:
-How to self-diagnose estrogen dominance
-The top ten belly-blasting foods that jump-start weight loss and maintain hormone balance
-How your sleep patterns, exercise habits, and stress levels impact your hormone levels
-Which vitamins and supplements support, not sabotage, your overall hormone balance
The result? Well within four weeks you'll lose pounds and inches… and reveal the flat belly--and the health and vitality that go along with it.

USER REVIEWS
"this book is a scam, sure there is alot of info that seems to make sense, but first of all, you must order alot of Dr. Randoulphs cream and supplements, and then they don't work at all. I spent $[...] on this rip-off, with zero results. then I e-mailed them to express my disappointment and the will not respond. If it wasn't a scam I feel they would at least respond as most reputable companies will if a customer is not satisfied. I feel that the five star ratings are part of the scam written by the company. DON"T WASTE YOUR MONEY, i feel like a fool for wasting mine. "

""From Belly Fat to Belly Flat: How Hormones Are Adding Inches to Your Waistline and Subtracting Years from Your Life" explains why in middle age hormones make your middle fat. The book provides a self-diagnostic test of the hormone imbalance that comes with age and is causing estrogen dominance in your body. It turns out that as women age there is a decrease in their production of progesterone, which allows estrogen to become the dominant hormone. According to the book, when your body is estrogen-dominant, you will be fatter, especially around the abdomen. The good news is that there are things we can do to combat this imbalance including emphasizing certain foods, taking vitamins and supplements including progesterone, adjusting sleep patterns, developing the right exercise habits, and managing stress. The book provides a 30-day menu with easy recipes. The foods include fish, citrus fruit, beans, chickpeas, lentils, and lots of vegetables.
The book has three main sections as follows:
I. Where Your Belly Fat Came From and Why It Won't Budge: 1. Estrogen Dominance; 2. Are You Estrogen Dominant?
II. The Three-Step Plan to Balance Your Hormones and Whittle Your Middle: 3. Step 1: Eat Foods That Balance Your Hormones; 4. Step 2: Use Progesterone--the Simple Way to a Flat Belly; 5. Take the Right Supplements to Support, Not Sabotage Your Hormone Balance.
III. Keeping That Flat Belly for Life: 6. Keeping Weight Off in the Real World; 7. The 80-20 Rule; 8. The "Flat Belly for Life" Recipe Collection.
If you are approaching the middle years of life, and you think your hormones may be out of whack, this book contains ideas that you may find very helpful! I also like THE 3:00 PM SECRET: Live Slim and Strong, Live Your Dreams"

"This diet has a lot of specific rules and regulations that will help women (specifically) get rid of fat that's stored in those hard to defeat areas on the body. This is geared to women because we have different hormones and emotional needs than men. Unfortunately, this diet plan doesn't stress being healhty, it stresses losing weight and looking good- not necessarily the best way to live!
What you should know: this isn't an easy fix- it will take time and effort (and some extra costs for vitamins) to get you to the balance of nutrients in your diet with will boost your metabolism and get your body working for you.
I recommend this but in addition to the more general You: On A Diet or my favorite nutritional plan: The Evolution Diet"

"This book is easy to read & understand. The 30 day memu lists 4 meals a day (including snacks). I like the fact the recipes are simple everyday items you would have in your house. This is good book for those of us with the belly that will not go away. "
