about the book
You can't cut fat if you don't know where it is, and now Joseph C. Piscatella, author of Don't Eat Your Heart Out Cookbook and other diet and health books, with over 2 million copies in print continues his quest to make fat-reduction easier to implement. The Fat-Gram Guide to Restaurant Food gives the fat-grams, calories, and percentage of calories from fat for over 3,500 of the most commonly ordered restaurant dishes. It includes fast-food offerings by franchise, and it is the only guide to sit-down restaurant meals. Here are breakfasts, from McDonaldís Pancakes to Sausage McMuffin. (Choose the pancakes.) Lunches and brunches. And of course all manner of dinner foods, from beef to fish, Mexican to Japanese.
In addition to its convenient alphabetical listings, the guide provides Joe Piscatella's own strategy for making smarter choices in restaurants. And he should know. A tireless speaker and promoter for his books, he is on the road 100 days out of the year, eating out during every one of them.
about Joseph C. Piscatella
Author Joseph C. Piscatella has been a keen observer of American eating habits since 1977, when emergency open-heart surgery at the age of 32 forced him to recognize the intimate connection between dietary habits and overall health. His successful recovery and determination to make adjustment in his own lifestyle and diet inspired a new career as an active proponent of healthy lifestyle changes. As president of the Institute for Fitness and Health, Inc. in Tacoma, Washington, he lectures extensively to a variety of clients, including medical organizations, corporations and professional associations, and is a consultant on major wellness projects for Fortune 500 companies, the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force. Cited in Time for their practicality and effectiveness, his seminars deal with the management of lifestyle habits to increase health, longevity and productivity. Mr. Piscatella is the only non-medical member of the National Institute of Health Cardiac Rehabilitation Expert Panel, which develops clinical practice guidelines for physicians. He is also a member of the Association for Worksite Health Promotion, the American Association of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation, and the National Wellness Association.
