fellow Engine 2 firefighters in Austin, TX, were in dire physical
condition-several had dangerously high cholesterol levels (the
highest was 344!)-he sprang into action and created a life-saving
plan for the firehouse. By following Rip's program, everyone lost
weight (some more than 20 lbs.), lowered their cholesterol (Mr.
344's dropped to 196), and improved their overall health. Now, Rip
outlines his proven plan in this book. With Rip as your expert
