    Sounds boring, I've tried so many ridiculous fad diets, none have worked for me. Clean eating and exercising 4 times a week is helping me shed the weight and will keep it off. But that's just me! :)

    Any diet that promises a specific result in a specific short period of time is a fad diet.
    Can you look at that and say you could eat like that the rest of your life? No...fad diet.

    That would take the weight off so fast you would look like a shar pei puppy by the end of it.
    Slow and steady all the way!
  • It's only temporary so a complete waste of effort.

    I doubt any marine could survive on that, it's not enough calories.
  • Thats pretty much a protein sparing partial fast

    Yes you will loose a stone if you are fat
    It will be mostly water
    you will loose 2-3 pounds and will work for a jump to your diet if you have will power but when you add carbs the water will come back and if you eat to much after like any diet.

    Dont do it for more than a week take a multi and fish oils (10gs a day) and it will do you no harm at all. If you are obese you can do this long term if you keep the fish oils up and do no cardio and lift. The protein should be plenty to stop muscle loss.

    Looks similar to a diet I've done before. Works yes, I've used it to "kick off" a diet but you gain it back if you don't eat properly afterwards. I used it once to start and continued to eat well and kept weight off for about a year then gained it back. This time around I changing my habits completely and weight is slower in coming off but I am healthier and in better shape.

    Water weight losses. The fasting and extremely low carbs will put you regularly in a ketogenic state which will shed the water. Not a bad thing but by no means is that stone weight loss going to be primarily fat.

    You will loose more fat in a short time but if you don't exactly understand why you are eating like the above don't do it.
    The rapid fat loss book follows this type of diet and its over 100 pages of science and research.

    Isn't one stone like 14 lbs? That's a bit ridiculous. It's impossible to lose that much fat in one week.

    Any diet with a name should most likely be avoided.

    Wait, everyone says halt... it is bad it is fad etc.

    What about fasting? People fast for lent, sometimes 6 days on, then Sunday off. And they do that about 6 weeks or so.. they don't look like skeletons, nor skin hanging off.

    As for gaining back, it is mental... if you want to change, you can... if not, well then honestly what the hell would you expect anyway...

    Besides a stone = what? 12 pounds? Umm if I do not cheat, do not drink, I can lose around that each week >.> I CHOOSE not too and drink like anything etc in order not to lose it...

    I can honestly say without eating and drinking like a king, I would drop weight... but I don't wanna, I wanna do it slow.

    I eat cakes, not plural, I eat cookies, I eat chocolate, I eat chocolate sauce on its own, with ice cream, then bags of chips, then hot chips etc... all in one day and barely pick up anything and I am 5ft...

    My training schedule however... well... that is a different story, I prefer eating clean and healthy, but love to eat junk and drink beer....

    I run 3 times a week around 50-60km a week, cycle 3 times a week roughly 200km, 3 times weight training and 2 sessions of surfing....

    I dislike my body, I hate eating, but then when I taste the food, all I think about is yummy and cannot stop... If I don't have formal meals, I likely would only eat 1hr before training and 2hrs after, then not again till next or when drinking.. Can't drink and not have some potato chips now can we! :D Or cookies! haha

    I actually am scared of the day I have to cook for myself and live by myself.. I hate cooking anything but eggs and meat, and dislike the general idea of NEEDING to eat... Except meat... can't have enough meat.. or choc sauce... or pizza with nutella topping...

    hmm sorry about rambling...

    Anyway, this fad crash diet, for example... the 3 eggs day one breakfast? Why not just skip breakfast and have a chicken + egg salad for lunch? :/ sounds better to me and less calories than those 2 mentioned... :/

    It's choices, and stupid crash diets really are stupid, I eat as it is fuel, except when drinking... then I get the munchies, but whatever lol...

    And as for other poster... Isn't it protein sparing modified fast?

    And that works like a dream! Is awesome to do just before competition :D apart from decreasing weight, you also deplete carb and glycogen stores, so the 2-3 days prior to event you can carbo load without a problem! :D

    Diets. Don't do them.


    You MUST avoid weight loss plans that encourage you to lose too much or too little weight at a time. You want to lose enough weight to see a difference and stay motivated to continue your healthy habits. It is best to avoid extreme diet plans that make you feel deprived and leave you yearning for your old ways of eating. There is no quick fix or fast way to lose weight. Eat healthy and exercise. Make it a lifestyle and work toward your goals at a steady pace.
  • Personally i believe that any time "diet" is used its BS. "diet" to me means - taking out a lot of fat and nutrients to attempt (yep, attempt) to remove unwanted body fat.

    i prefer to use the term 'Nutrition Plan'.
    Nothing wrong with a chicken breast, broccoli and brown rice is there? Great filling meal and had good nutritional value. On top of that exercising on a regular basis is much better for your health then these fads!

    It's all about the user. If YOU really WANT the change then it's down to YOU to make that happen. Don't rely on the fad diets to get to your goal. Hard work pays off.

    all those eggs.. omg your farts would peel the paint off the walls

    maybe you'd lose weight, but i'd personally prefer to lose less and still be able to interact in public without being known as the girl who walks around in a cloud of poo smelling funk :laugh:

    It sounds like its based on the mayo clinic diet which i did some years ago and did loose a stone (14lbs) in 10 days
    if you can do it give it a try but you will have to watch what you eat when you come off it

    The best way is healthy eating, a calorie deficit and regular exercise

    WOW - I don't know about it working in terms of weight loss but you would have breath like the (uncleaned) monkeys cage in the zoo and farts as toxic as a nuclear meltdown after that lot!!

    Fad diet, think about it......to lose 14lbs (of fat) in a week would require a caloric deficit of 49.000 kcal or 7,000 per day.

    Even without knowing your vitals I'd bet that this is mathematically impossible.

    Stick to the basics (eat at a modest caloric deficit & move more) you didn't put on a stone in a week, you aren't going to lose it one a week.
