It's a very good book. It's more than just what to eat, it's very motivational to know why you should eat it. Plus, as Julie said, great workout plan by Alwyn. Recipes, too.

TNT Diet $17.13, today on Amazon. That's only the cost of three fast food meals that you shouldn't be eating, anyway!

I'm stopping by B&N to pick up a copy on my way home, need to drop about 20 lbs of holiday beer and cookie fat. The website says they have it in stock.

That may be in the warehouses that bn.com draws from, not necessarily at your local store. Just FYI - I'd call the local store to see if they do have it.

They have a "check store availability" link on their website that searches by zip code, that said my local store had it in stock. Which they did, for 20% off.

Default TNT Diet

Just wondering how Columbus George is doing on this diet. Sounded like he experienced back in mid-November what I would experience if I start this diet. Haven't seen any posting from him since.

Hey Stingo. You are probably already familiar with my results on it. So far so good, to say the least!

It's easy, and it works. That's all the criteria I need.

Ok, so I bought the book and have read the first 5 chapters. For lunch today I had a roast beef and cheese samich with mayo, no bread. I'm going out for a walk and I'm going to stop by the Safeway for some bagged veggies and sour cream. It's going to be hard to skip my oatmeal in the morning, but it's only for a few weeks.

So far it sounds very similar to Atkin's New Diet Revolution.

question for you, I started the TNT diet at plan E (I'm not trying to lose weight). I did actually lose a few pounds this last week. After this past weekend I didn't have two many carbs, just some red wine. I am eating the protein and carb for the muscle building phase an hour before I work out 3 times a week. I am running and playing basketball on the other days. Do you think I should eat carbs before I do those things, or just stick to protein and only eat carbs on the days I work out?

Giving up my morning oatmeal was hard for me too

What does the book tell you to do?

It doesn’t tell you what to do in my case. It says that cardio is optional but if you do it, try and do it on the days that you don’t lift. But it doesn’t say anything about eating protein and carbs before you run. I usually play basketball for awhile and then run on the treadmill. I am doing Plan E. I would think it would be smart for me to eat the 20g of protein and 40g of carbs before I play bball and run but wanted to see what you guys think.

Hey Mike, if I remember correctly, I think everyone is supposed to start on Plan A before doing any of the other programs no matter what your goal is. If that's the case I would try upping your daily calories a little bit so you don't lose weight and consuming some extra protein shakes before and after your basketball sessions.
