10 Pounds in 10 Days by Jackie Warner (nonfiction)

Ms. Warner is an expert, highly paid, but we can take issue with several aspects of this program.  Naturally it is one long advertisement for her website and weight-loss products, but that could be positive if a dieter was able to go to the forums and get support, however, anyone with sense knows that losing 10 pounds in 10 days is not good for your heart, and doesn't bode well for long-term success.  Ms. Warner attempts to address this by giving two further phases for the program, each adding a few more calories.
The exercise program contains several important elements, such as progression, variation, and intensity.  It also has four different exercises for the biceps - useless.  The eating plan is very restrictive, as you might expect to be able to lose so much weight quickly.  It also has no substitutions, making this impossible for anyone with food allergies or strong preferences.
