Game On Diet

This is the first book I have reviewed, but it's not really a book as much as it is a game.  Have you read The Game On Diet ? I think you'll be surprised by what you read.  First, one of the authors is a  writer of Grey's Anatomy.  I don't watch TV much (which is surprising given that people in my family write for TV) but if the TV show is anything like the book...

Have you ever heard of zucchini spaghetti?  I tried it once at a vegetarian restaurant and thought it was great.  It is a light spaghetti-look-alike that is healthy and fast.  But how do you make a zucchini into those thin strings?

I made my first batch of yogurt the same day I got it. This machine makes seven 5oz servings in about 8-10 hours.  I hesitated when I took my first bite.
