Fat Loss 4 Idiots
Fat Loss 4 Idiots is currently the most sold fat loss and dieting ebook on the
internet. It claims that you can lose 9lb every 11 days.
The website looks quite funny with some cartoon style pictures. And I normally
don’t like to be titled as “idiot”. So my first impression: is this fat loss program
just a joke or really serious
I continued to read through the site where they mention four well known weight loss techniques that don’t work. And that’s exactly what I experienced. I tried many low fat food and low carb plans without success. I clicked trough the sites and found many interesting and provoking statements.
Who is behind Fat Loss 4 Idiots?
Normally the first thing I like to know - who is the author and expert of a fat loss program. In this case it’s unknown, there’s no name or company mentioned on their home page.
What is this ebook about?
The main concept behind Fat Loss 4 Idiots is a theory called “shifting calories”. It works as follows: Your eating habits define how your body burns calories. Your body anticipates that you’ll eat the same combination of foods in the coming days and weeks. If you are breaking this habit by eating different foods every day your metabolism starts burning more calories. This sounds logical in theory, but how does it work in real life?
The second part of the fat loss for idiots program is an online diet generator. It creates a personal diet plan after you input your weight goals and the type of food you prefer. In seconds you receive a detailed eating plan for the next 11 days using the shifting calories approach. This step is really simple and can be performed with a few clicks. There’s a separate diet generator for vegetarians.
Here’s an example of two menu plans which contains only whole foods:
Day 1
Meal 1: Scrambled Eggs
Meal 2: Chicken
Meal 3: Mixed Nuts
Meal 4: Sandwich (any type)
Day 2:
Meal 1: Chicken
Meal 2: Fruit Salad
Meal 3: Fish Filet
Meal 4: Cottage Cheese
What are the results?
This is a low carb diet that tries to trick your metabolism by changing your food habits daily. The principle behind this diet works and thousands of people successfully lost fat using it.
But losing 9 pounds every 11 days is not realistic nor healthy. Yes I know that some people lose that much weight but it is mostly water retention. And after a few weeks it’s getting harder to lose that much weight after the inital effect. The program helps to learn the basics of losing fat efficently. If you use these techniques you’ll see good results.
Pros:
You can start dieting in less than 15 minutes without reading books or watching DVDs
No need to count calories

Cons:
No known experts behind the plan - author is anonymous
claim of losing 9lbs per 11 weeks is hyped up

What is the verdict?
If you want to start losing weight quickly with a simple diet plan then Fat Loss 4 Idiots is a solid fat loss program. I like how simple it is to use. You can start losing weight in less than 15 minutes. The price of the ebook is $39 and considering that it comes with an online diet generator it’s a good value.
