If you haven't heard of the buzz on the Net
regarding one of the hottest downloaded online
diet programs, then brace yourself from laughing
too hard. This increasingly popular program is
called Fat Loss 4 Idiots, a ridiculously insane name for a diet that is
sweeping the online dieting world. By the way,
Fat Loss 4 Idiots
is also known as the Idiot Proof Diet simply
because it's a very straightforward diet to
follow that even an "idiot" can follow it.
With a funny sounding, catchy name that you are
certainly not going to forget and an outlandish
claim that you can lose 9 pounds within a period
of 11 days ... can you really take the Fat Loss
4 Idiots diet program seriously?
>
Underlying Principle
Fat loss 4 Idiots is one of those diets that
go against the grain of commonly held notions
about how to lose weight. The authors of Fat
Loss 4 Idiots
claim that low fat foods don't work, low
calorie diets don't work, and low carb plans
also do not work. To lose weight, the authors
expound on the importance of "calorie shifting" — a
revolutionary concept that they claim induces
significant weight loss in a short period of
time, especially when combined with some
commonly proven tips of eating the right kinds
of food, having more than three meals a day, and
portion control.
The underlying concept of the calorie shifting
theory is to
provide your body different types of calories
each day, which then confuses your metabolism
and forces faster fat loss to happen. According
to this calorie shifting theory, shocking your
body by shifting the level of calories taken
each day will confuse and turn on your
metabolism into high gear to burn all of the
calories. When your body finishes burning those calories, it will find the nearest available fat tissue
in your body and burn that too. To enhance this
process, you also need to eat food which have
been rated "fat burning compatible".
The Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet program is based on a
cycle that lasts 11 days. After the 11-day
cycle, you are allowed three "cheat days",
wherein you can eat anything you want for three
straight days. After that, you simply generate a
new 11 day menu. You basically repeat the whole
11-day diet/3-day cheat cycle until you achieve
your target weight.

Top Reasons Why
This Diet Is Increasingly So Popular
Below are some of the reasons why the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet program
is increasingly becoming very popular among
people who are trying to lose weight. |
| |
 |
 |
|
Fat Loss 4 Idiots Diet Handbook |
Simple to use and follow. The
authors of Fat Loss 4 Idiots explain the diet
and the rules that you should follow in
a very simple and straightforward
manner. There are no fancy explanations
or instructions that you have to follow.
The ebook and the website, which you can
only access after you purchase the
Fat Loss 4 Idiots program, is laid-out in a simple way to
avoid any confusion about how you should
follow the diet. The Fat Loss 4 Idiots program and all
its accompanying tools were developed to
make the life of the dieter as simple as
possible. |
|
|
You eat food that you like. What
makes Fat Loss 4 Idiots very appealing to a lot
of people is that you are in control of
the food that you eat. You can choose
exactly what you like and create a wide
variety of meal plans. That way, you do
not feel deprived at all because you are
eating food that you like best.
Starvation is not an option for with the
Fat Loss 4 Idiots
diet. Also, you are not forced to eat
any pre-packaged food. Your food choices
are what you'll find in your
neighborhood grocery or supermarket.
Another great diet option for those who want
to prepare their own meals is
The Diet Solution Program.
This diet program, which continues to be increasingly popular
worldwide, is based on practical and sound health and nutrition principles.

Fat Loss 4 Idiots Online Diet Generator |
Meal planning made easy. Fat Loss
4 Idiot's online diet generator is the
heart of the program. The Fat Loss 4
Idiots online diet
generator is a very powerful,
time-saving program which generates your
diet plan based on your food choices.
All you have to do is choose among a
list of food choices, press a button and
bingo — within
seconds, you have your meal plan for the
next 11 days.
The Fat Loss 4
Idiots online diet
generator creates your daily plan of
four meals, which you can eat in any
order during the day. There is no
calorie counting involved in the meal
preparation. You only eat until you feel
satisfied, and never to the point that
you stuff yourself full. Furthermore, if
you do not like the meal plan
combination that was generated, you can
play around with it until you find the

program, they have kept their weight off
as a result of the change in their

For those who don't like exercise,
this is for you. As much as we know
that exercise is good for our health and
for weight loss, there are people who
still don't care much doing any exercise
or physical activity. For those who
don't like to exercise or prefer not to
indulge in any physical activity, then
Fat Loss 4 Idiots is for you. Fat Loss 4
Idiots does not go
much into exercise nor do they promote
this as a way to hasten weight loss. |
|
|
Very inexpensive relative to other
diet programs.
Fat Loss 4 Idiots is one of the most inexpensive
diet programs that you will find in the market
today simply because you only pay for access to the ebook and the online diet generator. There is no
monthly fee to access
Fat Loss 4 Idiots, just a one-time
fee. While other weight
loss diet programs in the market can
cost you in the hundreds (or even
thousands),
Fat Loss 4
Idiots is relatively cheap. Your other out-of-pocket costs will be for
the food that you prepare yourself. |

Potential Issues With The Diet
Program
Below are what we see may be potential issues
about the
Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet: |
| |
 |
Not a clinically proven diet but .... One
of the major issues that we have
concerning
Fat Loss 4 Idiots is the
absence of clinical studies or proof
that this diet really works. We still have to find some
credible resource or research work to
show that the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet
can really result or induce weight loss.
There is proof though that the theory
of calorie shifting is an accepted
theory that is being used by certified
medical weight loss practitioners.
Although not really referred to as
calorie shifting, other weight loss
programs use the concept in the design
of their meal plans.
For example, one of
the most
effective and increasingly popular
home-delivery diets in the United
States,
Bistro M.D.
(Editor's Choice),
uses the concept of calorie shifting in
the design of their meal plans. They
design meals with an average calorie
count of 1,200 a day. They stress
"average", because some of the meals can
be above or below this average. They
reason that it has been medically proven
that if you stick to a strict intake of
1,200 calories a day, your body gets
used to it making it harder and harder
each week to lose weight. By varying
— increasing or decreasing
— the calories on a day-to-day
basis, your body and metabolism does not
get a chance to get used to a particular
level, which in turn makes losing weight
more effective.
If you prefer to be on a clinically proven weight loss diet program, then we highly recommend
Medifast (Editor's Choice). Medifast is a clinically proven diet meal replacement plan that has been found to be effective for weight loss in studies conducted at reputable medical institutions in the United States
such as the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. |
|
|
Absence of actual testimonials on
site but ...
If you visit the Fat Loss 4 Idiots
website, you won't find any before and
after photo testimonials or actual
stories of people who have actually lost
weight with the diet program.
Despite the lack of testimonials on the
Fat Loss 4 Idiots website, we did some
research and found
testimonials of
people who have lost weight or are still
losing weight through the Fat Loss 4
Idiots diet.
We have also talked to a
couple of people who have tried Fat Loss
4 Idiots and have had some success with it. Regarding the claim
that you can lose 9 pounds in 11 days,
most of those who have reported weight
loss from Fat Loss 4 Idiots said that they
have experienced an average loss of 2 to
3 pounds a week, which is not too bad
since this remains within the healthy
range of weight loss. |
|
|
You need to prepare your own food.
Although we don't really find preparing
your own meals an issue, some people
will find this task a chore. All we can
say is that by preparing your own meals
and doing the related grocery or
supermarket shopping, you are also
burning calories and doing some physical
activity. Think of this as a chance to
have some exercise, which is actually
good for you. |
|
|
No face-to-face support group.
Some people like to have face-to-face
meetings with a support group or a
weight loss counselor to keep themselves
motivated. Fat Loss 4 Idiots does not
have this at all since this is more of
an online program that you read and
follow.
If you are the type who needs
some sort of support group to keep
motivated, we suggest three things. One
option is to ask a buddy to join you in
the Fat Loss 4 Idiots program so that you can motivate
each other and compare notes. A second
option is to look for people in your
community (via a web search) who are
doing the Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet
program. A third option is to find an
online forum on the Fat Loss 4 Idiots
diet. You will find numerous weight loss forums and chances are there
could be one focused on Fat Loss 4
Idiots. |

"I began using the diet in February of 2008 in a tight size 18 weighing 230 lbs. By the end of June I was in a size 14 and down to 180 lbs.
... this last cycle I finally hit the 170 mark (top of the healthy weight for my height)! I still have 20 lbs until my goal and will continue using this diet until it is reached. Other diets may work for me as well, but I like this one because it tells me what to eat. I still can choose when to eat which meal and choose between a couple things for each meal, but basically my menu is planned. No decision on what I “should” eat to be healthy or to lose weight; it has been decided for me. I also have exercised minimally throughout this process. 1 time a week Feb – June and then took the summer off and started up again in Sept. Good luck to everyone who wants to try this! "

"I began the Fat loss 4 Idiots program because it just sounded right for an idiot like myself. By June of 2007 I had yo-yo'ed
myself up to 294lbs. Every diet I tried resulted in more poundage. I lost 8 pounds on the basic 9-day version the first week, 25 lbs the first month. Then I went on a Cruise for 2 weeks and put on 10 pounds. I got serious again and lost down to 240 at a rate of about 5 lbs per month over a period of 8 months. That was my first "plateau". It took a while but I got my discipline back and began to lose at a rate of about 2-3 pounds per month. I now weigh 220 and I've been in a holding pattern(220-225) for about a year but I suppose 74 lbs in 2 years is something of a success story. I have a real problem with chocolate, dining-out, lattes, and Frozen Yogurt(which is allowed but not to the extent of my addiction to it). Good luck if you decide to try it but be aware--there is no diet that works unless there is a committed change of lifestyle and eating choices."

"... I have been on this diet for 8 weeks now. And this is the easiest diet that i have ever been on. I have lost 40 lbs and i feel great! My Mom went on the diet with me and she has lost 30 lbs. Let me emphasize that she WAS an insulin dependant diabetic. Within the first 11 day cycle her blood sugar levels went from 250+ to the low 100's. Here are some other pluses. You do not get headaches and feel terrible when your on it. You feel satisfied after your meals and don't have hunger pangs. And you DO NOT have to count calories
