Cook Thin, Get Thin, Start Now! The companion journal to the national bestseller Cooking Thin with Chef Kathleen

"Losing all the weight you want isn't boot-camp-hard, or I never would have been able to do it," says chef Kathleen Daelemans. "I didn't give up my favorite foods, and you don't have to either." Hired to cook at one of the world's most famous spas, Chef Kathleen created a slimming, healthful cuisine that drew raves from the New York Times, Bon Appétit, the Los Angeles Times, and many other publications. In the process, she herself lost 75 pounds, dropping from a size 22 to a superfit size 8.
