To many women, diet is a four-letter word - and rightfully so. No matter how cute the name or how tasty the branded dinners, a diet is still a tortuous stopgap that trades in deprivation. Enter The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice and her new recipe book, Skinny Italian. She mercilessly skewers the myth that looking fabulous has to be a chore. Instead, she shows how a slimmer figure should and can be a side effect of la bella vita. This is not a diet book - it is an 'eat it and enjoy it' book.
