| joehucks's Full Review: The Grapefruit Diet |
My Dr. gave me a copy of this diet along with several others and so far this is the only one I can follow and lose weight on.
All the other diets out there can be hard to follow especially if you are on a tight schedule. Preparing meals to meet the outline or even trying to figure out how much of what equals a serving. I mean who has time for that?
I have dieted all my life and some worked, some didn't. This is one "diet" I have to say sounded too good to be true but I'm on my 5th day and lost 7lbs so far. Too easy is what I say.
You start out eating 2 slices of bacon and 2 eggs in the morning combined with a grapefruit or a cup of unsweeten grapefruit juice and a cup of coffee or tea. For lunch you have the grapefruit/juice, a salad with any dressing and any meat(made any way). For dinner you have the grapefruit or juice, veggies, and meat. Both lunch and dinner you can have coffee or tea too.
The diets stresses the types of veggies you can and can't have and to eliminate caffine and sugars along with starches...
The Dr. gave me this diet to try but only with close supervision. This diet is very easy to stick to. I have a very busy life and drive thru everyday. With this diet I can still do that; I simply carry the juice with me in a thermos and the copy of the diet in case of any questions.
I really enjoy this diet because of it's simplicity. If you are interested check it out online under the "mayo clinic diet" or email me. I do want to stress this not a diet for everyone and you should talk to your Dr. before going on it.
To list all the other diets I have tried would take all night but just to list a few: Carbs diet, Weight Watchers, Physicians, Low fat, low cal.
I could go on and on, but I can only say this is the only diet that gave me great results in this short amount of time without drugs and with it being given to me by my Dr. I trust her about it. But again I want to stress this is a very touchy diet since it includes all the meat that is why you should call your Dr. first and research it.
I recommend this diet to anyone out there who has tried everything and could not get results. Since everyone responds to different diets this is just one of the many...
