I liked the general idea of this book - slow down and actually enjoy the food you are eating instead of mindlessly shoving it into your mouth. It made me look at my own bad habits (eating in front of the TV and not paying attention to what I was eating and actually enjoying it). I found it worked for me, slowing down and savouring food made me eat less overall and more of the foods I enjoy. When visiting France hubby and I happily indulged in great food and walked everywhere, and at the end of it were slimmer, fitter and happier depsite all the pain au chocolats we had devoured. We also rarely snacked, and if we did, it was on a piece of fruit from a market stall. The French, regarding their view and culture of food, have it right in that respect. But there were some parts, like the alcohol chapter, that felt outright self-promoting (she works for a champagne company...) Finally read this book. Unlike most American women, I have never been on a diet in my life and was pleasantly pleased to find that my eating habits are much like described in this book. Maybe that is why I have been "naturally thin" all my life. I am going to copy some of these recipes down and then share the book with others.
Guiliano ends the book with a list of more observations about French women. They don't weigh themselves, they don't snack all the time, they eat more fruit but would never give up their bread or other carbs. They dress to take out the garbage, they understand the importance of a good haircut and expensive perfume, they know love is slimming. Part of me wanted to throw the book across the room, while the other part was memorizing the list....At the very least, we would all do ourselves a favor to make like Colette, for whom the table was ''a date with love and friendship '' instead of the root of all evil.

My biggest takeaway from the book was the reminder that I can say no to foods---even after they've been served to me. I don't have to finish everything on my plate. Better to toss it in the trash than wear it on my middle. ( )
