• A lifestyle that incorporates healthy eating and exercise and delivers fast results and long term good health


• A guide to eating out that lists approved meals at chain restaurants, including Olive Garden, Don Pablos, and Outback


• David’s Express “no excuse” workouts designed for readers on the go. Just 10 minutes in the morning will help start your day on the right foot.

READ AN EXCERPT:

"The Ultimate New York Diet grew out of the successful feedback and informative e-mails I received from graduates of The Ultimate New York Body Plan. Soon after the book was published, I realized that in order to maintain their impressive results, readers needed a follow-up manual, one that helped them apply the principles of the Body Plan for the rest of their life. Thus the Diet Plan was born.

The Diet Plan picks up where the Body Plan ends, with some overlap. In addition to a two-week meal plan that teaches you to abide by my A, B, C, D, E, and F of nutrition, you also will find six more weeks of meals that help you learn how to maintain your results for a lifetime. These subsequent weeks will show you how to work some carbs and other A, B, C, D, E, and Fs (see Chapter 2) back into your life, without going overboard.

The Diet Plan's comprehensive eight-week Eating Plan is broken down into three phases:

• Phase 1 - takes you from the initial (more restrictive) two weeks of nutrition


• Phase 2 - where you are allowed a little more healthy carbohydrate latitude


• Phase 3 - which includes weekly cheat meals, among other things

It is in these two latter phases of the plan that you start applying the valuable lessons that you’ve learned in the first two phases to the rest of your life. It is this maintenance plan (life plan) that is a distinctive feature of the New York Diet.

The cookies look and smell good, but are they really worth it? My hope is that, after reading this book, the cookies won't smell as good as they did before, but if they every now and again do, you will have the knowledge and confidence to enjoy the cookies and get right back on the plan.

Throughout the pages of this book, you'll find the practical "how-tos" to deal with challenges that we all face from time to time, including these:

• Living in a "to-go" society


• Finding the time for a "real" workout


• Following the plan in all types of restaurants, from fast food to fine dining


• Surviving the holidays, including cocktails, pigs in blankets, and everything in between


• "Getting back on the horse" when you have strayed


• Incorporating all of these principles and making a lifelong commitment to wellness for you and your family

As the creator of “No Excuse” training, it was imperative for me to answer the often-asked question, "What do I do if I don't have time to work out 90 minutes per day as prescribed in The Ultimate New York Body Plan?"

The creation of David's Express Workout Plan is another unique feature of this book.

“Using my specially formulated workouts, like a doctor's prescription -- doing them several times per day through out the day -- you can work out and see effective results even if you only have 10 minutes to spare.”

This addresses the very common dilemma. ..”I don’t have time to workout 90 minutes each day.” “ With the Express Workouts,” the routines are broken down into body parts -- often combining things like butt, thighs and hip or an overall cardio sculpting mini-session -- just enough to get the heart pumping and the muscles softly singing as you sumo lunge, plie squat, and crab race your way to a new you! Obviously, the more effort you put into the program, the more impressive the results will be."
