Is Fat Loss 4 Idiots Right for YOU?

By Caitlin Ryan

Have you ever waited until the last few weeks before a big event to try to improve your figure? Maybe you even gained weight during the planning phase of the big event and now, your dress does not fit. I am normally not a big proponent of fast weight loss, but even as a nutritionist, I have certainly run into this problem.

The stress involved in planning for a big event can be a trigger for over-eating and snacking. Time spent on the event may take away from time in the gym. Fat Loss 4 Idiots can save you from shopping for a new dress that fits your now thicker figure! This diet can help you lose weight fast whether you have time to exercise or not.

The program is simple. In less than 2 weeks (11 days to be exact) you will be able to fit in that dress or special outfit by losing 9 pounds! Fat Loss 4 Idiots is a quick fix and not intended for long term weight loss, but it can help you out in a pinch.

I know, I know. I tell you all the time that fast weight loss is not the right way to go. However, there are two reasons why I think Fat Loss 4 Idiots can help you both in the short-term and in the long-term. If you need to lose weight quickly for a BIG event that tells me that this is a once in a while sort of thing. We do not have BIG events all the time, so I know you will not abuse the advice given in fat loss for idiots. As well, you can easily use this diet as a starting point for a long-term weight loss plan.

There are two ways to go with Fat Loss 4 Idiots. You can use their online diet generator that tells you EXACTLY what to eat. The advantage is that you will not have to think about what to eat. Also, when you are busy planning for an event, you may not have time to exercise. The online diet generator does not require exercise in order to lose those 9 pounds in 11 days.

If you have two 30-minute blocks of time per day to exercise for the 11 days preceding the big event, then the second option is their diet handbook. It is also more flexible in terms of food choices. I recommend this over the diet generator if you are going to use Fat Loss 4 Idiots as a jump-start program. Exercise is imperative for long-term weight loss, so you may as well get in the groove now!

10 rules in Fat Loss 4 Idiots help you lose weight quickly. The diet guide gives you advice on combining carbs and protein in such a way to facilitate fast weight loss. Though it may be tough to eat this way for a long time, you only have to follow the diet itself for 11 days.

The rest of the rules are pretty helpful towards long-term weight loss goals as well. Fat Loss for Idiots takes a common sense approach to weight loss for quick weight loss and long-term tips on adjusting your lifestyle to suit the needs of weight loss. - 17944
