More Than a Cookbook—A One-of-a-Kind Toolkit to Help You Make Smart Calorie Decisions Every Time You Eat

You know that balancing the calories you take in and burn off is the foundation of weight control. But actually achieving that balance between eating and exercise is a daily challenge for most of us. Now, The Calories In, Calories Out Cookbook provides a fresh, sane approach for everyone seeking good health—and great food.

Here is an essential repertoire of 200 smart recipes—nutrient-rich, delicious, foolproof, and ideal for busy individuals and families. Every recipe tells you its calorie count—and also tells you how many minutes of walking or jogging it takes for a woman or man to burn those calories off, so you'll be able to visualize what calories mean as never before. All the recipes are below 400 calories per serving—and most are below 200!
