The Bikini Body Guide is a beautiful book. Itsines includes some great tips on nutrition and the importance of eating a healthy, well-rounded diet. Details like the difference between fat loss and weight loss, which many people get confused, and pages dedicated to why our bodies need various food groups set this book apart from some of the other lifestyle books I've read. There are a lot of great recipes that I intend to save and I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a fun way to learn about proper nutrition.

I only know about Itsines via social media and #bbg, but she is definitely a leader in today's fitness world. This is a book I'll eventually purchase for the recipes and solid nutritional advice.

Nothing new under the sun, I guess, but there's some helpful stuff in here.

Pretty good book. What you would expect. However I would have preferred more exercises than just a pull out sheet at the back.

Firstly the recipes were very tasty and the food and tips and combinations of meals felt like they were well thought out.
The book failed to acknowledge that different people need different portions, for a meal planning book it did not take into account if you were doing more exercise than the BBG guide alone. I know there has been allot of discussion around some of the days in the book only totaling up to 1200 calories.
I think this book should be used more as a guide then as a rule.
