Just a few years ago, we wrote a self-published book and titled it Trim Healthy Mama, never guessing in our wildest dreams what would happen with it. Women began to discover the book and it resonated with a longing they had deep down in their souls. Like us, they felt done with diets and yearned for a doable way of eating that would enable long-term success rather than short-term, extreme results. Those women shared the plan with their friends, who shared it with their friends. Trim Healthy Mama became a grassroots movement and now close to a million people have slimmed down and gained better health eating this way.

It was not us who caused this movement, it was Mamas everywhere who couldnt keep the good news to themselves. Soon it was not just Mamas slimming down and gaining health, but also whole families, churches, and communities. Daily we hear stories and see pictures of men, children, and teens with incredible health and weight transformations. We have Trim Healthy Daddies (commonly known as Trim Healthy Hunks), teens, singles, grandparents, second cousins, and long-lost uncles, all coming on board.

This book is for all of you who took us two crazy sisters into your hearts and homes and who shared our plan with your family members and friends. You wanted more family style get er done recipes, and you wanted a simple start guide of the eating plan to share with others. Well, here they are.
