Oh, so annoying.

"Haphazard 7-day diet plan with pushy presentation (e.g. do this "because I said so"). Each day has a two videos. In the first video the host jabbers on telling you what to do all day. This is a verbal presentation of exactly what is already provided in writing so I cannot imagine its purpose except the host likes to tell you what to do. The second daily video is an instructional cooking video in which the host demonstrates that night's dinner. This is what I was interested in. And I would have watched the preparation video on mute, but it was only a tiny window in the corner of the screen. For good instruction, tasty meal plans, a database of recipes with healthy food, and wine pairings without the diet plan or jabbering try Good Cooking: The New Basics + CookDisc DVD by Jill Dupleix."
Nice, but not quite what I had hoped.

"I am a big fan of Kathleen Daelemans and have all her cookbooks. They are amazing. I was very excited to find a video, and I was hoping for a lot of techniques for making healthy, low fat foods. It was nice, but I would have liked something with more philosophy, instead of a few meal ideas. Overall, I think I'll stick to her books."
