Protein Power and Protein Power Life Plan

[Bajabnd]

What is the difference between these two books and why would you need both? Anyone have both and feel you for sure need both? Can you tell me why?:confused:

PPLP is copyright 2000, PP is 1995. They've updated somethings. PPLP has a more holistic approach and is somewhat simplified. IMHO it's a lot easier to read. PP is maybe a tad more technical, requires more math (not hard, but still) and is really focused on diet with a wee bit of exercise advice.

IMHO, PP is good for the technical details, PPLP is a better plan. There is some redundancy, but it was worth me owning both.

Oh yeah, they changed a couple of stances in response to newer research. Small stuff, but NTL.

Thanks Max you Highway Star! You are almost at goal, I think we need to lose the same amount. Wanta competition?

[maxlharris]

Sure. What stakes do you want?

OK, they say healthy losing is like 1-3 lbs a week...or something like that. I don't want to promote starvation here so let's say we start TOMORROW 6/15/07 and go one month to 7/16/07 (Monday) Whoever loses the most of our 17 lbs gets .......

You decide this part. We could send a fav summer book via Amazon, or you can go to giftcertificates.com and send a gift certificate to your e-mail, or whatever. What are your ideas?

[maxlharris]

Cool. Uhm, let's see, a nice trade paperback goes about $15, so how about a Borders/Amazon GC for $15?

[Bajabnd]

You got it! I'll pick a book at Amazon and we'll figure out a safe and good way to get it to the WINNER! Maybe we should make the book worth the amount we have lost by 7/16/07?

[maxlharris]

Tha'll work. And of course, remember, it's about total health. This is just extra motivation.

[Bajabnd]

Amen!....we might not lose the entire 17, but we can work at it and see how we can do. And as Carol of Missy said in the other thread, this is supposed to be a life style change for the rest of our life...Not just a quick weight loss. But hey..we can see what we can do for a month....
