The Skinnygirl Dish: Easy Recipes for Your Naturally Thin Life
I love the Real Housewives and even though I didn’t like Naturally Thin at all, I thought maybe a book of just healthy recipes would be good. That’s all this book is supposed to be: recipes. So I was surprised that it was all black and white text on thin pages like a paperback novel with NO pictures. No pictures in a cookbook? Maybe that was on purpose though, so you couldn’t see the food. I made some of it and it was terrible. The chocolate cake? My trash can enjoyed it more than my mouth. Sorry, Bethenny.

no pictures, beet juice for red velvet cake wtf? i’m all for organic and healthy food. but there are better be thin naturally a better way. not from a faux celeb. try jillian micheals or biggest loser people who want you to be thin not anorexic this book gave me nightmares of my past. i’m still thin with some curves i do not want to look like a 12 year old boy for life. these so called celebs need to realize at 40 having the body of a 15-20 year is not cute, anymore. you can also be thin after kids also exercise and eat not starve yourself.

I was super interested to get this book and I’m so glad I did. After traveling in the Far East and eating and enjoying everything in sight, I needed to shift a few lbs. I just started my weight loss journey with it and so far so good!

Bethenny is amazing. This no nonsense guide to cooking is the best thing that ever happened to me. I feel so inspired to cook now. Bethenny has completely thrown out the rule book and set me free. The recipes in this book are all great (the ones I’ve tried) and she always includes options for each ingredient. I’ve never really made a recipe where I had all of the ingredients in my house. With this book there are plenty of recipes I can make using only what I have on hand. I can’t wait for her next book!

I love Bethenny and I was SO looking forward to getting this book from AMAZON.
When it came I started reading and when I came to the recipes, I found the light print SO LIGHT that it was difficult to see the ingredients.
I don’t understand how this could have been overlooked by the publisher. If anything, you would want to bold the recipes, not do the printing in a lighter shade. The is like that cookbook (famous – but right now can’t remember the name) that had the recipes printed in light yellow – and everyone complained that
they could not see the recipes. PLEASE re-issue this book in a darker print, so I can see the recipes!!!
