The Karl Lagerfeld Diet

This book is not really what I expected. From reading other readers' reviews I knew a bit what to anticipate, but I did think there would be a bit more sustenance. I'm a big Karl Lagerfeld fan, so it was money well spent, but the point of the book, like any other diet, is to turn attention to what you're really eating. There are only 17 pages of actual diet planning, the rest is a slew of sidenotes. The supplements are pretty pricey, and hard to pin down exactly what you need. Interesting book though, I'm happy with it.

Take it seriously and not too seriously but it's a nice book to keep for those interested in Karl Lagerfeld, the much celebrated flamboyant fashion guru of the House of Chanel. With the typical Lagerfeld flair, he shares his wisdom of the art of living and dieting. Working together with Dr. Jean-Claude Houdret, this is a tried and true diet book with the most adorable artistic touch. Not only are we given the know-how to preparing the mind and developing the willpower necessary to commit to the diet, it offers a hundred and twenty gourmet recipes developed by Dr Houdret exclusively for Karl Lagerfeld. In addition, Lagerfeld offers personal advice and tips for staying slim, fit and attractive, which includes skin and health care, stress management and cosmetic treatments and surgery if required. The book caters for those who want to "...lose either the few pounds they feel should be sacrificed for their happiness or the several dozen pounds that are detrimental to their survival." The slimmed down and elegant Karl Lagefeld is testament to his successful diet and his book, the ultimate accessory for healthy living. Even if you are not into dieting, you will be fascinated by the way that food can be turned into artwork beautifully presented. A sure way to avoid gluttony!! Enjoy.
