Fat Loss 4 Idiots

Sounds like wasting your money to me

are you kidding me, this diet WORKS. I lost 21 lbs. the first 11 days and 12 the second 11 days.

you people are crazy every link I find for it, it dont work whats that tell someone.! IT DONT WORK

John, COME ON…. noone loses 21 lbs in 11 days… does fl4I pay you to surf sites and post that crap?

What is the point of fad diets like this??? why don’t you just try eating the right amount of thr right foods?? there are many websites that tell you how to eat right without doing stupid diets. oh and what is so stupid about fad diets is thatt if you stop YOU GAIN IT BACKK! i mean i should know i had a 400 lb aunt!

I’ve used this diet over a few years. I think women lose slower than the males listed above. However, I definetely lost weight but not the 9 lbs (not good anyway)per 11 days. It varied each 11 day period. It stays off for a while until I get distracted for long periods of time (months) with overindulging in eating. I did the diet before a cruise trip lost the weight and maintained the loss with regular cruise eating during the entire week of the cruise.

Dspite, most of you people say, this diet DOES work. My friend did the diet and succesfully lost 9 pounds. My mother did the diet and lost 10 pounds. I did the diet and lost 4 pounds. 4 pounds is not 9 pounds, but i was still very happy with the results. The example menu above, was not what my menu was like. You can select the foods you want. I do not like cottage cheese, so I did not select it. This diet is very easy to follow, and all of us have successfully kept the weight off. I hope I helped any people who inquire the diet! Best of Luck to all in their weight loss journey!

I lost 35 in 21 days. It won’t work if you do not follow it precisely. You cannot eat any sugar at all or to many carbs. But it does work nice and easy. You seriously cannot cheat at all or you will not lose.

Patricia, are you even reading the same menu, on mine I have alot of fruit and vegies, where did you get your menu from,it is not the diet at all. It is great, I platued and started this diet and my weight came off again, this diet is healthy and works.

Some of this information is wrong, or out of date.
The price is $39. That includes unlimited access to the menu generator, no time limit, plus the diet handbook with the 10 rules to lose weight and how to maintain low weight after losing it.
The meal samples shown are NOTHING like the ones generated for me. Mine was very low carb, but very big on fruits and veggies. The 3 “cheat days” gives you the carbs. It’s only meant to be for losing weight, not forever. The person who gained weight was working out — if he read the handbook, he would know that working out is not advised. Walking is the only exercise allowed. (Working out burns only carbs, not fat, which, on this type of diet is counterproductive).

I agree with Geneva …i just bought it this past weekend and there are two days devoted completely to fruits and veggies and it says to walk twice a day for 30 mins.

I have tried beyond calaries diet that can be down loaded with the fatlossforidiots diet. I am on day 9 of a 10 day diet and have lost 6Lbs. I know how to diet but had put some weight over the past year through careless eating and didn’t want the Weight Watches slog of 1 to 2Lbs a week. I will be satisfied with another 6Lb loss later and will try another 10 day slot after a few days break. After that I will try to keep my fingers out of the biscuit tin as that is my downfall!!!

Well this is actually good i lost 15 pounds in 11 days but its just too much of money to spend but its just ok unless i got quite light lool :]

Does this really work!
i heard it does!

oh dear. (Walking is the only exercise allowed. (Working out burns only carbs, not fat, which, on this type of diet is counterproductive).

simple biology lesson. Low to medium intensity exercise will burn fat - whether it’s walking, cycling, rowing, cross trainer…keep your heart rate in the midzone - eg for me aged 30 it’s about 50 bpm max. so go for it!

but interested to try the diet. did well on atkins low carb a few years ago

John, you either must be working for this site or you must have weighted over 500 lbs. to loose 21 lbs in 11 days. And if they say that exercise does not help they are full of it. Just my 2 cents.

I have tried it and I reviewed it. I liked some things and dint like some thing. I wrote a review be sure to read it…it can help you take a decision before you buy,

I just finished my first 11 days. I was very skeptical - no support - they don’t tell you who created it etc. But my roommate and I decided to try it for one 11 day cycle. We stuck to it to the letter, absolutely no cheating.
I am 6ft 238 pounds - I did not lose 9 pounds in 11 days, but I did lose 8.2 pounds! I have never been able to take weight off quickly so I was hoping to lose 4 to 5 points. I followed the diet but did not do as much walking etc. as recommended.
It will be interesting to see how this works over the long term.
Roommate is 5ft 10in 185 pounds, wants to get to 170. In one week he lost 11 pounds! Now he is far more active - he works part time as an aerobics instructor - so that probably accelerated his weight loss.

Ridiculous agian, this is simply telling you the obvious that if you choose good foods, proteins and carbs and eat less then you will lose weight, you don’t need to spend money for that advice.

this diet is 4 idiots hence the name derrrrr

why pay for this diet when you can do it on your own for free, the key to losing weight is eating right and exercise, this is basically what this diet is doing, dring 8-10 8oz glasses of water every day and eat low calorie, low fat foods, once you get to your goal weight treat yourself every once and a while, once you set your mind to it, its just a matter of getting it done, don’t waste your money on this diet, any of youl watch the biggest loser, do that if you want to lose weight, diet and exercise, its no way around it if you want to lose weight you have to eat healthy and exercise, got it.

One more thing:
!!!!!!!!!!!EXCERCISING IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS EATING!!!!!!!!!!!

Ithink this diet is so dum that it dosent even work trust me . you should give up and try another diet .

do you know why they say that “this diet (meaning any diet) is guaranteed to help you lose weight, 10 lbs in the first 30 days.”? Because it is a proven fact, that on almost any diet you can lose weight in the first month…if you follow the “correct plan”. Some have more water retention than others and that is why they lose more, and don’t always gain it back…..where as others don’t have that much to “lose” in the first place and hence, “I didn’t lose that much” or “anything”. And I agree with a few of the others out there, if you don’t exercise, 9 x’s out of ten, the weight is going to come back……I know…….”been there, done that, and tried just about everything…..” Reality check, eat healthy and exercise and stay away from the “junk food” that society and commercials are throwing at us every day in the media!!

I don’t know if some of you are not working the program properly, but it works for me. I lost 17 lbs in 11 days and my boyfriend lost the 9 lbs advertised. It could be that I have a lot of weight to loose, but it DID work for me. I love it! I also like the flexibility of not having to write down what I am eating because it is already generated for you. I also like the fact that I don’t have to worry about counting calories and reading labels; I just simply follow the menu. If you do that, it will work for you. Reading the handbook was also helpful. Those of you that are working out strenuously are potentially added on more muscle, which you know weighs more than fat. I lost the weight and did not even do the walking they suggested in the program.

Does anybody know why the price has doubled? Also, anybody that’s already on the plan. Are these meals or what. For example, when it says chicken are you just eating a piece of chicken or that plus some side items? I want to try it but i’m not sure. Please help.

I just don’t believe you Lisa, a site this popular and long running can’t fail to give refunds and get away with it.

I have started on this program and already (2 days in) lost a bit (but it’s within random variation so far), but even if it doesn’t work for absolutely everybody it sure seems to work impressively for most people.

Things I like (besides it hopefully working for me):

It’s so easy, many diets fail not due to lack of willpower but the effort and time that goes into creating a menu that fits the specs.
I like cooking but it is a chore and these meals require so little effort.

That it is low in starchy carbs but not a low carb diet. (I have had success with them but I have also felt awful and tired)

That it doesn’t tell you what percentage to eat of protein, fat and carbs.
How on earth are you meant to calculate such things?
Meat contains a set amount of fat, you can’t just dial it up or down, if the fat is too low do you just pour oil on?
What if it is too high?
If it is to high despite best efforts do you fix it by eating more of the other 2 somehow? (how?)
And when something says x amount of protein, well it’s very hard to get accurate protein figures for even things as simple as meat.

I also like that it doesn’t require blood tests, or question tests or any other kind of ‘identify which type you are’.

To those who say ‘Just eat healthy’ well I have been doing that and eating organically and I did lose weight at first but just ‘eating healthy food’ and being healthy in other ways is NOT enough.

Update, now I lost 9lb the first 11 days and currently I am losing a pound a day for the last 3 days! Woohoo!
Shortly before I did this I tried a low carb diet from an internet doc I trusted but it didn’t work despite feeling terrible and tired and very bored with the food (though mostly tired).

But with this despite being not low carb really works like a dream, I am enjoying the meals, the easyness, the weight loss, I just hope it keeps on trucking because if it does I am going to be over the moon as I reach 220lb in the first quarter of the new year. (at 220lb I’ll be pretty slim and light enough to go skydiving)

Right now I am at 288.4lb, that’s 11.6lb from the approx 300lb when I started. (I did however put on a few pounds by being super bad over the 3 day break)
