Product Description
"Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" is the inspiring weight loss success story of Jimmy Moore who made it his New Year's resolution on January 1, 2004 to lose weight once and for all. While others quit after only a few days or weeks, Jimmy pressed on until the next New Year's Day when he had shed 180 pounds from his 6'3" frame.

This book is not just another diet book trying to tell you the "hidden secrets to weight loss success" nor is it the latest media-hyped fad diet that will do nothing to help you lose weight if you are overweight or obese.

Instead, it is the real-life success story of how one man who was morbidly obese and on the verge of declining health and quite possibly an early grave was able to pull himself up out of the inevitable consequences that come with extreme obesity.

"Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" literally helped Jimmy overcome a lifetime of weight problems to become a physically fit and athletic person because of the healthy benefits he has enjoyed on the low-carb lifestyle.

This book contains the 10 life-changing characteristics that Jimmy implemented to transform his body from a 410-pound man into the healthy and vibrant individual he is today.

Each chapter pinpoints a specific aspect of Livin' La Vida Low-Carb that kept Jimmy losing fat even as others were quitting on their "diet." Topics include water, exercise, sugar, carbohydrates, vitamins, motivation, perseverance, support, and commitment.

Written in a no-nonsense, conversational style, "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" tells the truth about low-carb, offers advice about countering the constant negativity that this way of eating has received, provides instructional moments about how low-carb can work for you using examples from Jimmy's experience, challenges people to educate themselves more about low-carb living, and even throws in a few of Jimmy's favorite low-carb recipes.

Jimmy Moore has been radically changed for the better all because of the low-carb lifestyle. Let his personal testimony, in his own words, motivate and encourage you in your own weight loss journey.

"Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" includes a foreword by Ralph Bristol, a radio talk show host who conducted a weight loss contest that Jimmy won, as well as quotes from Jonny Bowden, author of Living the Low-Carb Life and Jacqueline A. Eberstein, R.N., co-author of Atkins Diabetes Revolution.

Product Reviews:
  Livin' La Vida Low-Carb 
I purchased this book because it has such good reviews on this site. I'm convinced that Jimmy Moore must have a lot of friends who reviewed the book and gave it those good reviews. It may interest people who have absolutly no knowledge about weight loss and low-carbs. I found it to be extremely basic and boring.
After an attempt to read this book, I coninuted by scanning. There was nothing new, helpful or informative. I found the author to be a bit too self-important.
Save you money and look for something interesting and with some depth.
  I love this book!! 
Great read for anyone that needs to loose weight or incouragement while living the low carb lifestyle. Very easy to read and understand.
  Jimmy's Excellent Journey ( my_books_et_al )
Jimmy Moore's personal journey - from morbid obesity to Livin' La Vida Low Carb - is an evangelical accompaniment to Good Calories, Bad Calories and Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution, New and Revised Edition , Atkins Complete - Fast, Easy & Healthy (Deluxe English Edition). There's a lot of "Praise the Lord!" in his life and his book - it's The Way to weigh less for chubby Christians.

As he says, this is His take on Livin' La Vida Low-Carb. It is not a "one size fits all" way of living, and he encourages the reader to modify it to what works for you.

As for this reader/reviewer/low carber: I did *not* give up caffeine, nicotine, or the occasional light beer (methinks that's Jimmy's Bible Belt talkin' there) nor commit myself to obsessive excessive exercise, and it works for me!

  What a Guy!! ( mjkrazy )
I have not finished reading this book yet, but have talked with Jimmy several times via email and he is nothing shy of Awesome!! His book is so inspirational and honest that I know that I was just meant to find it and read it. I am a true blue "low carber" but unfortunately with some personal issues and all these people telling me how unhealthy this lifestyle is I gained back a lot of weight. Jimmy is truly an answer to my prayers!!!!! I highly recommend this book and also the chance to talk with Jimmy. He lets you know that, no matter what, if this is the healthy lifestyle you so choose then "GO FOR IT"!!!!
