Please say bonjour to The Marie Antoinette Diet.... [it] is very a la mode. Wheeler also introduces the reader to the magical, mystery soup that the queen ate for dinner every evening. --(Maggie Lang, NY Mag)

The diet really worked for me. I didn t feel deprived and I ve still been able to eat out. The idea that you can eat cake while on a diet sounds insane. But the author has recognised that most of us trip up on diets because we crave something sweet. (Samantha Brick, The Sunday Mirror Magazine)

There are good philosophical underpinnings to some of this. (Emma Brockes, theguardian.com)

Really quite a fabulous book ...absolutely jam-packed with information. (Thom Watson, manface.co.uk)

Although fad diets come and go...some of Wheeler s claims (supported by Dr Mabel Blades, a registered dietician and nutritionist) actually seem useful and easily attainable. (Erin Cunningham, The Daily Beast).

Too good to be true? Not according to Professor Michele Carruba, Director of the Centre for Study of Obesity in Milan, who explains how this diet is very similar [in its principles] to the Mediterranean Diet. (La Repubblica)

Wheeler s claims actually seem useful and easily attainable... (dietusa.org)

The Marie Antoinette Diet does not promote a series of rules for losing weight so much as advocate a series of lifestyle changes intended to improve your health. (Susan Scutti, MedicalDaily.com)

By following this relatively easy diet plan, you ll be looking and feeling like your best Marie Antoinette slimmed-down self. ( RealStyleNetwork.com)

Why The Marie Antoinette Diet Might Actually Work. (Cosmopolitan)

...something quite new and paradoxical. Wheeler s research has led her to conclude that Marie Antoinette knew what we are taught today by dieticians and cardiologists. (financialexpress.com)

The Marie Antoinette Diet works on the basis that to be a successful slimmer you have to control your cravings, so by allowing yourself a little of what you fancy as part of your plan you will be less likely to ditch the diet and overindulge. (Emma Jones, www.healthista.com)

A diet that lets you eat cake? Now we re listening. Wheeler s approach is refreshing. (Katie Jones, MyDaily.com)

Consultant dietician: Dr. Mabel Blades BSC RD.

A healthy and delicious way to lose weight

Discover the centuries-old secrets that help French women stay slim

No calorie counting

Transform your health with simple changes to your diet and lifestyle

A simple but effective weight loss plan that does away with counting calories and eliminating food groups. Backed up by modern science, The Marie Antoinette Diet is based on the eating habits of the 18th-century French queen and generations of French women since. A recipe for painless and delicious weight loss, the book is part memoir and part diet plan, underpinned by some interesting snippets of French history and a lot of modern science. It is not just about weight loss, but the simple lifestyle changes that you can make to improve your overall health.

Instructed by her doctor to lose 10kg (1st 8lb) for health reasons, the author, a former fashion and beauty editor, had a light bulb moment while reading a biography of Marie Antoinette. The French queen ate cake for breakfast and was fond of hot chocolate, but seems to have known instinctively what scientific studies have recently shown: for example, it is not what you eat, but when you eat it. Inspired by Marie Antoinette s eating habits, and using a recipe for the health-boosting wonder broth that the queen ate every evening, the author created a diet that allowed her to lose 10kg in 10 weeks while eating normally most of the time. No calorie counting, no food groups excluded and yes if you follow a few simple rules you can eat cake.
