Never heard of it but the plan's name raises red flags. Can you give an overview of what it is?6

Do you think you have lost 6 pounds of fat in less than a week?7 -
Probably not but 6 pounds is 6 pounds. I feel like i have more energy too0

Definitely a nice jumpstart0

If you are losing weight it's because you are eating less calories. You can't change your metabolism much even over the long term, and certainly not in 4 weeks. If following a diet plan helps you get started then that's great, but those rules are unnecessary.13

Carbs, fruits and veggies but no sugars? Um ok20 -
It sounds like an awful lot of hoop jumping to me.
The way weight loss works is very simple, and people who want to sell books want you to think it's complicated.
I'm a post-menopausal woman with a bad thyroid.
I should be an ideal candidate for such a book. I didn't need any such plan. A simple calorie deficit worked just fine.
If you feel that eating this way is giving you a boost, have at it. Can you see yourself doing it long-term?
I suggest you hang around here, and read the forums. Especially the stickies with all the good information like this one. There are many others.12 -
This is a ridiculous plan.11

Eating different combinations of foods isn't going to"speed up" your metabolism.10

A diet plan created by someone who apparently has no idea what sugar is . . . definite red flag.12 -
I think the OP might mean no additional refined sugars etc. Obviously carbs break down I to sugars and fruit have a natural sugar content. But if a program like this is a first step into a healthier eating habits, then it's likely to make a big difference (although I agree that's it's more that there is a calorie deficit anf healthier food involved). One thing I've noticed (having tried a number of diets over the years) sometimesdoing a program like this kicks your digestive system into gear in a new way. Which does help with weight loss in some aspects plus would make a person feel like their body is running better or 'faster'.0

To the bolded, does that just mean that you poop more? If a person has trouble with regularity, the three Fs often help: fiber, fat and fluids.
Also, your statement "Havig tried a number of diets over the years" indicates that none of them have had lasting success, likely because you are falling for these woo based diets that have convinced you that your body needs a jump start. It doesn't. Things like "Fast Metabolism Diet" filled with arbitrary rules is just a way to profit off of people's belief that there has to be something more to weight loss than a sustained calorie deficit...

Well, wouldn't all the running back and forth to the bathroom "rev up" your metabolism? I might just try this diet.WinoGelato wrote: »To the bolded, does that just mean that you poop more? If a person has trouble with regularity, the three Fs often help: fiber, fat and fluids.

I lost 30 pounds in two months on the undiagnosed celiac disease diet! There was lots of bathroom running involved too.1 -
I read the first part of this book. Luckily, I don't remember much about it - just that she obviously either had no clue what she was talking about, or that she was intentionally lying to/misleading readers.5
