"I'm
not about fat-free and sugar-free; I'm not about food
substitutes. I'm about the food you love to eat."—Chef
Kathleen
"Her
talent is evident."—Bon

Kathleen
Daelemans' ordinary-girl success story, vibrant spirit,
and humor have made her an inspiration to millions of Food
Network viewers. While becoming a rising-star chef, she
was a size 22 and weighed 205 pounds. Then she accepted
a job at a prestigious Hawaii resort and was shocked to
find that she was to cook spa cuisine! Digging down deep,
Chef Kathleen motivated herself to lose weight without sacrificing
her passion for food.
Her
spa dishes were a hit, even among discriminating food critics,
winning raves from Bon Appétit, Esquire, the
Los Angeles Times, and the New York Times.
After losing 75 pounds and becoming a leading figure in
the food world, Kathleen decided she wanted to help others
take control of their bodies, minds, and health. Super-quick,
outrageously delicious meals became the hallmark of her
show, COOKING THIN, and drove her first book, COOKING
THIN WITH CHEF KATHLEEN, to bestseller lists across
the country.
GETTING
THIN AND LOVING FOOD!: 200 Easy Recipes to Take You Where
You Want to Be (Houghton Mifflin, March 25, 2004)
is Chef Kathleen's brand-new book for food lovers who want
fabulous meals and skinnier waistlines. She provides 200 simpler-than-ever,
flavor-revved recipes designed to end dieting disasters –
plus hundreds of motivational tools. "A recipe isn't
print-worthy if it isn't something I liked so much that I
called my mother to tell her about it or bragged to my neighbor,"
Kathleen says.
On her
show, COOKING THIN, Chef Kathleen has evaluated the
kitchen pantries of hundreds of Americans. Making sense
of your pantry is key to eating better and more healthfully.
Keeping things simple and being sure your kitchen is reasonably
well stocked will help you make wonderful meals like Chicken
with Quick Citrus Pan Gravy, Beef and Asparagus Stir-Fry,
or Salmon in Lemon and Soy in 20 minutes. Potato and Green
Bean Soup with Bacon, Pasta Pesto, and Chinese Chicken Salad
are great, healthy, one-dish meals. And no one should have
to live without Chef Kathleen's Strawberry Cheesecake Mousse,
Lemon Soufflé Pudding Cake, and Bittersweet Chocolate
Mousse.
Written
with love and humor by a real-life success story and media
darling, GETTING
THIN AND LOVING FOOD!
puts the fun into cooking while making sure that everyone
leaves the table satisfied.
"This
sequel to the bestselling Cooking
Thin with Chef Kathleen, from the host of the
Food Network's popular show of the same name, is as much
of a self-help book as a cookbook. Chef Kathleen's secret
to losing weight is a matter of behavior modification
rather than self-deprivation: set a goal, meet it, reward
yourself and repeat. The good news is that many of these
dishes are so appealing that eating a healthy dinner can
be a risk-free
reward in itself."—Publishers
Weekly
"...it's so full of great ideas
readers won't mind what it's missing: extra calories."—Publishers
