What Can I Eat on the Fat Loss For Idiots Diet?

The Fat Loss for Idiots diet program is an online diet plan that provides subscribers with some unique weight loss principles in the comfort of their own home. The plan uses a method called calorie shifting to help its users lose excess weight.

Principles

• The Fat Loss for Idiots program provides subscribers with a list of foods to choose from on their online meal-plan generator. Dieters choose the foods they enjoy eating the most and only these chosen foods are incorporated into an eleven day meal plan. The dieter is to follow the meal plan every day for eleven days straight, eating four meals each day. The meals from the generator can be eaten in any order and each meal gives three or four food options, of which the dieter can choose to eat all or just one. Meals should be eaten no less than 2 1/2 hours and no more than 4 hours apart. After eleven days, the plan requires that the dieter take a three day break, during which the dieter can choose anything they want to eat. After three days, its back to the diet generator to get a new meal plan.

Protein

• Protein is a big part of the Fat Loss for Idiots program. The meal plan generator gives dieters several lean protein options to choose from. Some examples of these food options include tuna, skinless chicken, eggs, cottage cheese, cheese and milk. The meal plan will dictate which proteins are specified for each day on the diet.

Fruits and Vegetables

• Fruits and vegetables are usually a big staple in any diet and the same is true for Fat Loss for Idiots. In fact, there is one day out of each cycle that is a "fruit only" day. The four meals on the dieter's meal plan will all include several fruit options and no other foods are to be eaten until the next day. Just about any fruit or vegetable is acceptable on this diet, but the dieter will only be allowed to choose those that are available in the meal plan generator.

Carbohydrates

• The Fat Loss for Idiots meal plan consists of very few opportunities to eat starchy carbohydrates like bread, rice and pasta. However, there is the occasional day when a serving of oatmeal or pasta is allowable for a meal.

Meals

• One principle of the Fat Loss for Idiots that stands out is that there are no calorie or meal size guidelines. The dieter is instructed to eat each meal only until they are satisfied. This means to stop eating just before the point of fullness. This part of the program requires some discipline and good judgment when it comes to listening to the body's cues.
