Book Synopsis

A place of grand estates and sparkling, refreshing beaches, the Hamptons are where the rich and famous go to escape the hot summer days of New York City. Hollywood superstars . . . Grammy Award—winning singers . . . international supermodels . . . Wall Street titans–all are drawn to the Hamptons to sun their amazing bodies, swim, and enjoy the delicious fare at the area’s many exclusive restaurants specializing in sumptuous dishes for health-conscious celebrities.

Want to eat well, stay fit, and look fantastic the way the rich and famous do in the Hamptons? Now you can with The Hamptons Diet–the breakthrough new low-carb diet by Dr. Fred Pescatore, an internationally acclaimed nutritional healing expert and the longtime medical director of the world-renowned Atkins Center. Dr. Pescatore is one of the leading experts in the low-carb diet movement and has worked with many rich and famous patients both in the Hamptons and elsewhere, helping them lose weight and look and feel their best.

Hamptons style. Atkins results. This amazing new book reinvents the low-carb diet, offering you a deliciously satisfying, medically sound weight-loss program for safely shedding unwanted pounds. Going beyond the Mediterranean-style diet Dr. Pescatore pioneered in his bestselling Thin For Good, The Hamptons Diet updates the foods you can eat to maximize both the weight-loss benefits and the enjoyment. The Hamptons Diet teaches you how to choose and enjoy healthful fats and carbohydrates instead of consuming or restricting them indiscriminately. It introduces a powerful secret ingredient–macadamia nut oil, one of the most monounsaturated oils on the planet. Citing the latest scientific research, Dr. Pescatore shows you why a monounsaturated-rich diet is the key to losing weight and keeping it off.

Since there’s no better incentive for following a weight-loss diet than delicious food, The Hamptons Diet showcases simple, easy-to-follow 30-day meal plans as well as almost 200 mouthwatering recipes by the New York celebrity chefs Tom Valenti of Ouest and ’Cesca and Douglas Rodriguez of Ola. You’ll find breakfast delights such as Atlantic Beach Avocado Boats, Goat Cheese and Arugula Omelet, and Soy Macadamia Pancakes; scrumptious lunch fare, including East Asian Chicken Soup, Sag Taco Salad, and Bacon Lettuce Turkey Twist; and to-die-for dinner dishes like Mama’s Stuffed Green Peppers, Kobe Short Ribs, and Playhouse Snapper Stew.

You don’t have to be rich and famous to enjoy the good life. A unique low-carb breakthrough weight-loss system, The Hamptons Diet is a surefire prescription for looking good, feeling great, and staying healthy whether you’re at the beach, at the office, or at home with your family.
