3 Day Diet Plan

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I recently came across an advertisement for this diet that said, “3 Day Diet — Lose 40 pounds in 4
weeks!” Hmmm . . . I believe there are twenty eight days in 4 weeks.

Truth to tell, I have not tried this “3 day, 4 week diet”, but I’ve read a lot about it. It is a very low calorie diet that is supposed to work by the combination of food you “must” eat.

One website that sells the the 3 Day Diet Plan says the diet was developed for “people who need to lose large amounts of weight” and that it is “chemically and enzyme balanced.” They promise that if the diet is followed exactly, loss of 10 pounds in 3 days is possible.
Apparently the diet is called a “3 day diet” because it is to be used for three days at a time. After three days of dieting the dieter may return to their usual meals but are cautioned not overeat. After four days of normal eating you may continue the 3 Day Diet.

Does it work? In browsing some of the diet forums on the ‘Net, I found some happy proponents of the diet. I also found people who had lost weight initially and gained it back quickly. The diet is below if you want to
check it out at your own risk. As for me, I think I’ll pass on this one!
