I am starting on Haylie Pomroy's Fast Metabolism Diet tomorrow morning for 28 days. It has challenges. I was wondering if anyone else on here is doing that program.
I have created my menu and grocery list for the week.

? I'm afraid to even ask. Is there a "slow metabolism diet?"0

OP-this is not a friendly place to ask about fad diets. And the 28 day anything is a fad diet.0
-
What happens after 28 days??
OP: Just eat at a reasonable deficit and exercise!! You didn't put on the weight over night don't expect it come off over night!!0 -

So I went to her site to have a look, wow it's fantastic she'll teach you to eat special super foods (low carbs) oh and then there are these special supplements made from pure products, wow what maybe like chilli or ginger, I didn't read it but I bet she will introduce something radical like 30 mins of exercise a day.
Well OP go for it, knock yourself out, enjoy, learn, lose a bit of weight and start your journey.-5 -

Oh ... Haylie Pomroy again ... the woman that thinks coffee enemas are a good idea ... because they help you "swing into full-on detox mode."0

After 28 days will I look like Haylie? Is she a muscular 190 pound 48 year old man? No?!?0

You don't need that kind of diet. Simply follow a regular diet by watching your calorie intake and excercise 5 or 6 times a week. You'll lose weight over time and keep it off VS some fad diet that takes weight off fast and puts it right back on again once you go back to eating the way you did before.0

I had to google it because I've never heard of it. First page, what pops up? It's stint on Dr. Oz. RED FLAG!!! I decided to keep trying to figure out what it is without watching it's stupid youtube overview video. I don't need a bunch of BS spouted out at me.
So in a nut shell:
Monday/Tuesday you eat high-glycaemic, moderate-protein, low-fat (AKA Carbs)
Wednesday/Thursday you eat high-protein, high-vegetable, low-carbohydrate, low-fat
Friday/Saturday/Sunday you eat high healthy-fat, moderate-carbohydrate, moderate-protein, low-glycaemic fruit
And then you are not allowed to eat wheat, corn, dairy, soy, refined sugar, caffeine, alcohol, dried fruit, artificial sweeteners (except stevia) and fat free diet products.
So basically... it's yet another restrictive diet.
Skip it. What you CAN do is eat a balanced diet of all the foods you love, and the only restriction you have is fitting it into your (hopefully) moderate calorie goal. It's easy, free, and not endorsed by Dr. Oz.0 -

LOL at "super foods"and supplements made from pure products…what does that even mean?????0 -
Don't embark on a selling tactic used by people who just want to sell you programs and supplements.
Weight loss comes down to calorie deficit. Whether you do it from carb reduction, burning more than you consume, or just increasing your TDEE, it's still calories in/out. And what's great is that it's for FREE. This app is here to help you monitor your calories daily.

Seems legit, she says the first meal of the day is like the pilot light that keeps your metabolism going for the rest of the day. I sure don't want my metabolism to stop because I skipped breakfast!0

not. The internet really needs a sarcasm font. Or I need to get better at it!0

I will be the slightly-dissenting opinion of the day
Though the only viable and sustainable way to lose weight is to eat at a calorie deficit, some of us get bored and like to follow a specific plan for a period of time. Is it necessary? Not even a little. But if you are eating a healthy number of calories for your goal, and you are not taking any weird pills (I do see mention of pills on here, and would advise against that part of it) then more power to you! I have done some "fad" diets throughout my weight loss journey just because I occasionally want to do something different. I don't know why, but it does something for me psychologically. It has worked for me because I always choose "diet plans" that are within the correct calories for my goal, and that don't require any witchcraft or fairy dust If that is what it takes to keep me on track, I will keep doing it periodically! I will say for the thousandth time, though-- these plans only worked because I was eating at a calorie deficit, not because of any "metabolism boosting shakes" or "fat burning smoothies".
So... all I am saying is: (again) the ONLY way to lose weight is to eat at a calorie deficit, as others have mentioned. If you chose to do that through a regimented "eating plan" such as this fast metabolism diet, go for it! Just be cautious about what you are putting in your body, ensure that you are sticking to healthy goals for yourself, and that don't require "magical" pills or boast something ridiculous like 20 lbs in a week (though if it fits within a healthy calorie range, it couldn't possibly claim that... I hope )
Best of luck in your weight loss journey 1 -
Phase 1 and Phase 2 are under 800 calories per day. Phase three allows up to 1200 calories per day ... those are total allowed without extra allowance for exercise. Each week cuts more than a full day's worth of calories from your weekly intake at MFP's lowest level.
It's a highly restrictive, LCD from a person who claimed "calories are a lie."

So, you know he was brought up in front of Congress for peddling snake oil, right?0 -
Dr Oz is a charlatan who admitted in a congressional investigation that the products he sells don't actually do the things he claims they do, yet he continues to sell them anyway, because he's more interested i in making money than in actually helping people.raeless2011 wrote: »I appreciate all the feedback.
