À propos de cet e-book

Why do most diets fail? Why do so many people who initially lose weight quickly pack it all back on—and then some? It’s simple, really. Dieting, a.k.a. denying yourself certain favorite foods, is just too hard for anyone to do for any length of time.


And how long could you deny yourself pizza?

But what if you didn’t have to say “no”? Chef Pasquale Cozzolino of Naples, Italy, did just that and lost nearly 100 pounds. When his doctor warned him to lose weight or risk early death, Chef Cozzolino knew he had to find a diet plan he could stick with, one that would allow him to eat the food he grew up on and loved in his native country—pizza! So, he consulted nutritionists, immersed himself in the science of weight loss, and developed the Pizza Diet: Eat a hearty breakfast every morning, enjoy a 12-inch Neapolitan pizza for lunch every day, and finish off with a light yet satisfying meal of fresh vegetables and lean protein for dinner. The results? You will quickly reduce your daily calories without ever feeling deprived.

À propos de l'auteur

Pasquale Cozzolino is the executive chef and co-owner of Ribalta restaurants (ribaltapizzarestaurant.com) in Manhattan and Atlanta.



Born in Naples, Italy, he attended six years of culinary school, where he learned 200-year-old recipes and perfected the art of making Neapolitan Pizza Margherita. After graduation, Pasquale worked for 10 years as a private executive chef in concert tours throughout Europe and South America serving such bands as U2, Madonna, Muse, and Coldplay. In 2011, he moved to New York City to pursue his dream of becoming a pizza chef and owning a restaurant.

In the U.S., Pasquale packed on the pounds by eating American-style fast food. He became dangerously overweight and realized he had to change his lifestyle or risk a heart attack. The answer was pizza, but not just any pizza. Pasquale used top-quality ingredients and his talent for mixing tradition with innovation to develop healthy recipes for pizza so he could lose weight and transform his health while still enjoying Neapolitan cuisine. His creations earned Ribalta New York magazine’s best pizza of NYC award.

While eating this pizza every day for lunch, Pasquale lost more than 100 pounds in 7 months—and The Pizza Diet was born. Now leaner, healthier, and happier, Pasquale is eager to share his strategies and recipes to help others achieve a healthier lifestyle.
