Nadine Recommends Fat Loss 4 Idiots to All Her Friends

2008-07-21T14:11:00.000-07:00

This review of Fat Loss 4 Idiots comes to us from sunny Southern California, where Nadine writes:

This is the best $27.00 I have spent. I started a one month ago and I went from 235 (no lie) to 212 and I am so excited. I can not believe how easy it is and I recommend it to all my friends. Especially friends that are not having any luck with there current diet. I know when I see my mother & sister next time they are going to really hop on this diet. You get plenty to eat, drink and walking is the key. I don't skip meals anymore, I eat more now than I ever did.

My husband is also joining in on the menu that I have for myself and he is loosing weight too. Although he doesn't walk everyday like I do. But we all know men lose weight fast then women. I highly recommend this diet especially for people that are on Weight Watchers, All Carb Diets or All Protein diets.....what a waste of time and money. I tell everyone I am an Idiot Member for life and it was the best move I made. Thanks for everything.

Thanks,

Fat Loss 4 Idiots - "It is Truly Idiot Proof! So Far I've Lost 7 lbs!"

2008-06-27T20:16:00.000-07:00

This success story of Fat Loss 4 Idiots comes to us from Lisa D.:

I am only just beginning this diet (I'm on my 9th day), but I'm very pleased with the diet as a whole. It is truly idiot proof! I don't have time to count calories and think everything out on my own which has been part of my lack of success with other attempts. I actually stumbled on this diet after being totally disgusted with myself for having tried the NutriSystem diet which smelled like dog food and tasted like I'd expect dog food to taste (again I was looking for something that didn't take my time in figuring it all out).

The Idiot Proof Diet let me choose foods that I like and then it generates a meal plan for me with food preparations. It provides a simple motivational write-up, rules for dieting and a dieting handbook which covers what do once we've reached our goal.

I was so excited to find this because I felt hope that I could actually do it and stick with it. For me the hardest part was to stop drinking the Dr. Pepper (which I did!). For me diet drinks are not an option because they taste so icky. Also, the diet requires 10 glasses of water and walking every day.

So far I've lost 7 lbs. I can hardly believe it! And it totally encourages me to keep it up!

Weight Watchers Too Expensive, Woman Lose 14 lbs in 11 Days on Fat Loss for Idiots Diet!

2008-06-27T03:48:00.000-07:00

This review of the Fat Loss for Iditos Diet comes to us from Teresa, who says:

Just writing to let you know....
I am on my second 11 days of WLFI (aka Fat Loss 4 Idiots) eating plan. On my first 11 days, I lost 14 pounds. I have already lost more on my second 11 days - I can feel it. For my 3 days I did eat some junkfood - my birthday cake, Golden Corral & Spaghetti warehouse, but I only gained a few pounds. My first few days of my second 11 I lost those and now I'm losing more.

I will probably drop another 9-12 this 11 days. I just love it! I had recently been on Weight Watchers and couldn't afford it. This was $27 for 90 days! Dang - what a bargain!

Fat Loss 4 Idiots: 10 Rules for Weight Loss Success

2008-06-09T17:08:00.000-07:00

Fat Loss 4 Idiots has become a popular weight loss diet for many reasons. Their "Idiot Proof Diet Handbook" is simple to use and very effective in helping you take off those extra pounds. With that said, Fat Loss 4 Idiots is primarily built around these 10 weight loss rules.

1. Prepare More of Your Meals at Home - Eating out or eating fast food won't help you in your weight loss efforts.

2. Drink More Water . . . Throughout the Day - This is not only healthy, but it also tricks your brain into thinking you are more full and the result is that you'll eat less.

3. Eat 4 Meals Each Day - And space them out at least 2 and 1/2 hours.

4. Leave Sweets and Snack Foods Alone - An occasional snack okay, but if you overdo it you'll never see results.

5. Shift Calories - By shifting calories you will actually speed up your weight loss and The Idiot Proof Diet Handbook will walk you through this in great detail.

6. Know When to Say When - If you slow down when eating you'll avoid eating until you're stuffed.

7. Eliminate Rich Sauces and Gravies - Spicing up your food is fine, but gravy and most sauces are rich in fat, carbs and--worst of all--calories. Avoid them.

8. Do More Walking - If you want to see quicker weight loss results, add moderate walking to your daily routine. You'll be amazed at how well this helps with any diet plan.

9. Rotate Your Meals - Rotating meals from carbs one day to protein meals the next, etc, will increase your weight loss.

10. Cut Out Sodas & Other Sugary Drinks - Drinking these will offset any weight loss efforts because they are packed with carbs and calories and only add additional weight.

Senior Citizen Claims Idiot Proof Diet Gave Her "Stamina Like I Had in My Twenties and Thirties!"

2008-05-13T10:56:00.000-07:00

This review of Fat Loss for Idiots (the Idiot Proof Diet) comes to us from Cindy W. in North Carolina:

This is day nine of my first eleven days on the diet. As to date I have lost nine pounds. I followed the diet , have been drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water per day, I started with walking 11/2 miles a day on my treadmill, I am now up to 2 miles in the morning which really boost my energy and another 1 mile after dinner. I am sleeping more soundly, have rekindled the lost energy and stamina that I had in my twenties and thirties. I have always had dark circles and bags under my eyes but since I have been on this remarkable diet, my dark circles have lightened and my bags are noticeably shrinking. I have sent the link to both of my sisters. I think it is just a wonderful diet. I'm so thankful that I stumbled upon it and I can hardly weight to see what the next eleven day will bring.
Thank You!, "Fatloss for idiots"

Former High School Jocks Says of Idiot Proof Diet: "This Diet Works!"

2008-05-12T22:58:00.000-07:00

Here's another success story for Fat Loss 4 Idiots (aka The Idiot Proof Diet) that comes to us from Chris S., who says:

"I started in the beginning of August (2005) with much cynicism. I have not really tried to lose weight before so I had come to accept my new fat body. When I was in High School I was a very successful athlete, weighing about 205 pounds on a 6'1 very large frame. When I went to college, I got hurt during the last practice of the year, and needed surgery on my knee. After the surgery I was not working out, I was just letting it heal, and I gained about 50 pounds. After that football was a definite no go, and i was putting on weight steadily ever since. Once I hit about 295 pounds, I had had enough. I found the Idiot Proof Diet, and started in August. It is now the middle of September (2005) and I am down to 263 pounds. I have a lot of work in front of me, but this diet WORKS."

My Success Story: Lost 7 lbs in 7 Days on Idiot Proof Diet

2008-04-08T14:10:00.000-07:00

This weight loss success story of the Idiot Proof Diet comes to us from Cheryl in Alberta:

This diet came to me via a friend who had lost 17 pounds. My age, weight and fitness level were approximately the same as hers and I decided after years of trying WW and various other diets to give it a shot. I started at 150 pounds and within 7 days had gone down to 143 pounds. It was easy to follow and when you add in salsa and other allowable things I found I was never feeling great hunger pangs and was content to eat the 4 small meals a day. So far so good. There are currently 10 women watching me carefully to see if it works and they have promised to hop on board if I am successful. I plan to continue on to my 3 day break and then do another 11 day cycle. Recommend it so far. I also do the 45 minute walking every day and have managed to stay fit for the last 30 years through various exercise routines. Walking is easy!!!

Idiot Proof Diet Review: I Lost 9 lbs the First 11 Days!

2008-04-04T13:07:00.000-07:00

This latest review of the Idiot Proof Diet is from Norma, who says:

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 8 years ago. I had gained about 30 lbs. and thought when I started thyroid meds the weight would just come off. WRONG!! No matter how little I ate I still could not lose weight.
Three weeks ago I weighed more than I ever have (35 lbs over normal) and was quite miserable. Everything I did eat bloated me so that I looked pregnant!
Quite by chance I happened upon the "idiots diet" on the net. I decided to give it a try....
Long story short, I lost 9 lbs the first 11 days!!!! The bloating is gone and I'm not hungry!!! On my 3 days off I found that I really didn't want to eat that differently. Now into the 5th day of my second round and am so excited about this! I almost feel guilty because it seems I'm eating more than I did before but still losing the weight! I'm 68 years young and am looking forward to having my slim figure back! Can't thank you enough!!!!!!

New Review of the Idiot Proof diet: "I Don't Feel Hungry!"

2008-04-01T20:22:00.000-07:00

This review of the Idiot Proof Diet comes to us all the way from the United Kingdom:

My name is Kalpana and I am from London. I am 44 years old. I was desperate to lose weight and could not find any diet plans motivating enough, having tried so many. While I was surfing the Internet I saw a very small advert saying ‘Lose 9lbs in 11 days’.

At first I thought it was a joke but when one is desperate anything will seem attractive. I looked at the website a couple of times before I decided to try the Idiot Proof Diet. I thought here goes my money again. I have brought many exercise equipments and tried many diets.

I started last month December 2007 weighing 80 kilos (about 176 lbs) and am now on my 2nd run and glad to say that I am 75 kilos (165 lbs). I am so pleased. I don’t feel hungry and am allowed to eat the foods I like. It’s great.

Wow! Woman Loses 180 lbs of Fat, Gains Celebrity Status

2008-03-29T12:04:00.000-07:00

Did you see this lady on Oprah? Her name is Jennifer Marnell and CNN also did a story about her dramtic weight loss and how it all started because she was too fat to sit in a ride at Six Flags! She waited in line for a couple of hours, tried to fit into the ride and when the belt wouldn't buckle had to get out! How embarrassing. Here's more on Jennifer Marnell dramatic fat loss and transformation story from CNN (link includes video clip):

Bubbling with personality and quite the ham -- she was no stranger to performing. Marnell loved singing, dancing and acting in local plays while growing up on the outskirts of Atlanta, Georgia.
Even though her family showered her with adoration and unconditional support -- Marnell was hiding something that she was afraid to share with anyone. Since the age of 8, she struggled with her weight.
"I was the only one in the whole family who was overweight," Marnell recalled. "[They] were always supportive and told me I was beautiful ... I didn't realize how depressed I was because my family loved me no matter what."
But other people weren't so nice. Marnell says classmates and other people teased or ridiculed her about her weight. Instead of talking about her feelings -- she turned to food for comfort. As she ate to soothe her pain -- Marnell's weight spiraled out of control.
"It got out of control over the years because it became an addiction," said Marnell. "Food didn't talk back to me and didn't tell me no ... I didn't know how to stop and listen to my body."
Working as a nanny at the age of 27, Marnell was 5-foot-tall and weighed 300 pounds.
The wife and mother says a series of embarrassing moments such as not fitting into a restaurant booth, running out of breath while walking and lacking the energy to play ball or skate with her daughter -- took an emotional and physical toll on her health. But the final straw came during a trip to an amusement park with her family.
"We were at Six Flags waiting on a ride and we waited for an hour-and-a-half," said Marnell. "When we got on, I couldn't latch the belts because I was too big and they had to ask me to get off."
Devastated by the incident, Marnell says she broke down in tears and had a heart-to-heart talk with herself. Afraid that she might die before the age of 30, she was tired of being a "fat mom" and wanted to set a good example for her daughter.
After the mental pep-talk, Marnell started her weight loss journey by joining a gym. She started by exercising in the women's-only section and ate a low-fat, low-calorie diet. After a few months, she'd lost 50 pounds. The weight loss boosted her confidence and she decided to try a water aerobics class which was a lot less stressful on her bones and joints.
Over the next two years, Marnell continued taking group fitness classes, hired a personal trainer to get past a plateau and eventually lost 180 pounds!

Another Idiot Proof Diet Success Story: "I Never Once Felt Underfed"

2008-03-27T20:11:00.000-07:00

This success story of the Idiot Proof Diet and its unique calorie shifting system, come to us from Nick in Florida:

I am currently on my 8th day in the 2nd 11 day period. as of today I have lost 15lbs overall. This is the easiest diet I have ever been on and I feel extremely comfortable with the food selections and have never once felt I was underfed or being deprived. The 3 days in between are great but surprisingly I found myself not over indulging and other than adding some vegetables to my meals I ate much the same as when on the diet. So far I have had a very positive experience with this diet. I should mention that I have not exercised as suggested but pretty much just stuck to my couch potato ways.. This is definitely worth a try

This is the best $27.00 (Editor's Note: This was the price at the time of Nadine's review) I have spent. I started a one month ago and I went from 235 (no lie) to 212 and I am so excited.

Dieter Claims "I Have Never See Weight Come Off So Quickly" Using Fat Loss 4 Idiots

2008-03-16T07:42:00.000-07:00

This success story of the Idiot Proof Diet comes to us from Kristina in Ontario:

Hi I just wanted to share my review of this diet: I bought this diet about a month ago and was at a starting weight of 137 and I have got to say I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I would recommend it to anyone and I have to some of my friends. I am currently at 123 lbs for a total of 14 lbs lost (would have been more but I caved a few times), and it took a month to get to that and I am still currently following this diet.

My only word of warning is if you have no control over eating it is not the diet for you, you have to eat exactly as they say otherwise it will not work (trust me I tried to cheat a few times with negative results). I also workout every day so that may help, but I have never seen weight come off so quickly with many of the other diets around. People have said that it is bad because of low carb blah blah blah, but they do give you carbs to eat just not as much of the starchy ones which are not as good for you anyways. I could go on and on about it but really you just need to try it for yourself it works.

Today's Review: "I Would Recommend the Idiot Proof Diet to Anybody!"

2008-03-10T18:28:00.000-07:00

Today's weight loss success story of the Idiot Proof Diet is from Micheal R.:

I have been on the Idiot Proof Diet (day 7), and have lost a total of 9 lbs. so far.

I have been trying really hard and been very focused on losing weight for the past 6 weeks, and this by far has been better than anything I have ever tried. I have been to Weight Watchers (I am a lifetimer), Jenny Craig, Curves, Phen Fen, and even read Dr. Phil's weight loss book, but this is by far the best I have ever done. I am not hungry, I get plenty of calories, and I feel very good.

I would recommend this to anybody serious about losing weight. I do exercise though, even though they only recommend walking.

The Top Secret Fat Loss Secret No One Will Tell You

2008-02-14T16:24:00.001-08:00

I don't know who you typically get your medical advice from, but I doubt he or she looks as good as Suzanne Gudakunst. Is having a great face and hot body the best way to judge someone's diet plan? What, you'd rather take advice from that fat old guy you've been going to for years? If he knew the Top Secret Fat Loss Secret, he'd be using it himself, or on that chubby wife and kids of his. No, he doesn't have a clue why most people are fat and basically everything he and the main stream media has been telling you for years is just plain wrong and actually works AGAINST your ability to lose weight.

But don't take my word for it. Here's more about Dr Suzanne Gudakunst's breakthrough diet:

A lady doctor named Dr. Suzanne Gudakunst (hot doctor at right) has just released what many are calling the end of the need for potentially harmful weight-loss drugs and designer foods made to help you lose weight. Dr Suzanne's discovery allows anyone regardless of their particular diet to do "just one simple thing" and instantly start shedding anywhere from 15 lbs to as much as 200 lbs of unwanted and dangerous fat!

Typical results average 45 lbs in just the first 30 days alone for most people just starting out using her new secret.

The reason this is so is because her secret (aptly titled: "Top Secret Fat Loss Secret") operates on an entirely different approach in the battle against the ever-increasing "bulge." Dr Suzanne discovered that harmful crusty "plaque" builds up over the years in all of us - and which is the direct result of harmful chemicals, preservatives, pesticides, etc. deliberately placed in perhaps every food on the market (much of which is now suspected as being carefully and intentionally done so that people will continue to get fatter and thus sicker, and in order to make the food & drug companies richer!)

Your Own Body Fat Determines Need for Weight Loss

2008-02-09T16:36:00.000-08:00

Apparently, it turns out that you need to measure your body fat, rather than your body mass, to help you to determine if you need to lose weight to improve your life and avoid debilitating diseases like diabetes and heart disease. Here's more about the study that unveils this discovery from Reuters:

Excess body fat is a risk factor for many major health problems such as heart disease and diabetes, researchers note in the Nutrition Journal.

When evaluating individuals for lifestyle recommendations to minimize such health risks, body mass index (BMI) under identifies risk, said Dr. Ottavia Colombo of the University of Pavia in Italy.

"The use of BMI alone does not discriminate between fat mass and fat-free mass, nor reflect the fat mass distribution," Colombo told Reuters Health.

Colombo and colleagues recruited 23 men and 40 women, aged 20 to 65 years, to undergo body composition analysis in the Human Nutrition and Eating Disorders Research Centre at the university. The volunteers were healthy, but led sedentary lives and were not following a low-calorie diet.

The researchers obtained each person's BMI as well as body-fat measurements including waist circumference and total percent body fat. The also calculated a measurement similar to BMI that identifies fat mass called body fat mass index. The investigators then compared the percentage of the study group that would be told to lose weight according to each calculation.

BMI calculations, they found, identified 11 percent of the group as needing strong recommendations to lose weight and 41 percent as needing basic recommendations to lose weight. By contrast, waist circumference measurements indicated about 25 percent would need strong recommendations to shed pounds and 36 percent.

Slimming down, the experts' way: More secrets to Fat Loss

2008-01-27T15:31:00.000-08:00

When you really want to learn something, you ask an expert, right? The same goes for fat loss, and the experts have some great advice for you. Here's more from NewsDay:

Dr. Michael Kaplan, president of the Center for Weight Loss, who says, "Fat is not the enemy, calories are":
Avoid trans and saturated fats and eat recommended amounts of omega-3 fatty acids found in marine life and unsaturated fats found in olive oil, avocado and nuts. Note that most oils are still about 130 calories per tablespoon.
Remember to read labels. Many manufacturers add sodium and additional calories to products in place of fat, letting them keep "low fat" or "reduced fat" labels. Look closely at calories and serving size when deciding if the food item is a good choice.

Weight Loss Secrets - The Key To Weight And Fat Loss

2008-01-27T15:27:00.000-08:00

Is it really hard to lose weight? Can you lose weight and not suffer any fat loss? It's possible. Here's more from a news story at BestSyndication:

If you have ever tried to lose weight then I am sure that you will understand just how frustrating it can be. If you lose the weight then lapsing for just a few days can result in weight gain and another diet. Losing those excess pounds and keeping them off can be extremely difficult, but there are certain things you can do to ensure that you never regain that weight and so stay lean and trim forever!

When you do diet, you should make sure that you are losing fat and not muscle. If you lose your muscle mass then you will struggle to lose your fat because working your one pound of your muscle burns 35 calories every day. If you have little muscle then you will burn fewer calories. This is the reason why you should take aerobic classes as well as doing some sort of weight training.

Government Considering Paying People to Lose Fat

2008-01-26T15:08:00.000-08:00

Having trouble losing weight? What if your government PAID you to lose the pounds? Think you could? That's an idea some health officials in Great Britain seen to have. Here's more from This Is London:

Fat people could be paid to lose weight under Government plans to tackle obesity.
Ministers said the Health Service and employers could give vouchers to the overweight to spend on healthy food in supermarkets.
They also suggested that those who manage to lose weight could be given cash prizes.
Britain is in the grip of an obesity epidemic. A quarter of all adults and one in five children are obese.
Experts say that by 2050 at least 60 per cent of the population will be obese.
But the Government strategy risks provoking accusations of a nanny state culture because it also urges schools to appoint "lunchbox police" to check that pupils' food is healthy.
Other ideas in the 40-page report are for compulsory cookery lessons for pupils and at least five hours of school sport a week - up from the present average of two hours.
There will be a healthy food labelling scheme and ministers want councils to use planning laws to limit the number of fast food outlets near schools and parks.
But one of the most controversial parts of the report is a plan to give the overweight financial incentives to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Why High-Protein, Low-Fat, And Low-Carbohydrate Diets Suppress Hunger

2008-01-21T15:50:00.000-08:00

Wonder why Fat Loss 4 Idiots works so well? This new study from Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism (JCEM) might explain why.

Many popular diet plans are based on changing the proportion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats one ingests as a method to promote weight loss. There has been some controversy regarding the effectiveness of these diets, but a new study accepted for publication in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism (JCEM) could shed light on potential mechanisms by which various diets promote weight loss.

This study examined the relative ability of different nutrient types to suppress ghrelin, which is secreted by the stomach and is the only known appetite-stimulating hormone. Circulating ghrelin levels increase shortly before meals and then decrease promptly after ingestion of food.

"We found that when fat is consumed, levels of ghrelin remain relatively high, which could in turn stimulate hunger," said Dr. Karen Foster-Schubert of the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, Washington. "Protein consumption resulted in the greatest suppression of ghrelin over a long period and, interestingly, consumption of carbohydrates resulted in a strong ghrelin suppression initially, although subsequent ghrelin levels rebounded well above baseline."

Fat Loss for Idiots Review from Sheila - "Best $27 I Ever Spent"

This review of Fat Loss 4 Idiots comes to us from Sheila:

I will say that when I came across this diet online I was and had pretty much given up on any hopes of loosing weight. I was just going to accept the fact that I was going to be fat the rest of my life. The name "Idiot Proof Diet" caught my attention so I read what it had to say and paid my $27.00 (Editor's Note: at the time of Sheila's review, this was the cost of the diet). The best $27.00 I've ever spent.

I started the diet on March 28, 2005 and by that Friday April 1 I had already lost 8 lbs. I really like that I don't have to measure anything, or count calories at all. I will say that time has passed I don't eat such large portions. And at times its hard to get all 4 meals in a day! Maybe the first week or so I did feel a bit light headed, but my body was missing all the bad foods, pizza, candy pop.. oh the list goes on! I have noticed that now food is not my main concern of the day, I'm not obsessed with it as I was before.

I'm not as tired, I'm sure because Ive now lost 51 lbs, don't get heart burn any more, and have had no problems with my gallbladder. And also my cholesterol has gone from 188 to 161. I agree with the 10 glasses of water a day, if I don't I feel it the next day. My skin has cleared up and wow my nails have gotten much stronger and long. That's never happened before. As you can tell I have nothing bad to say about this diet! I was wearing a size 18-20 and now I just bought size 12, its been years since I've been in that size!!!! I still have about 30 more lbs to loose, but have no doubt that I will loose it with this diet!
