Please allow me to present you this topic as it won’t take long before you will get to know everything about it.
The fat smash diet was created for a VH1 show called Celebrity Fit Club, created by the diet’s author Dr. Ian Smith. The diet encourages people to eat better while at the same time to become more active.
Ian Smith’s resume prior to creating the fat smash diet is impressive. In addition to sitting on the board for the American Council on Exercise, he is a health consultant for well known television shows and a columnist for many health magazines. He also created the TV show that was centered around his fat smash diet.
The fat smash diet is designed to create healthy habits through implementing four distinct phases:
One – detox: During this nine day phase of the fat smash diet people purge their bodies and minds of bad things, while losing up to six pounds. This phase includes some strange but ineffective suggestions such as weighing yourself in the nude and being photographed in a bathing suit.
Two – foundation: Some foods removed during detox are reintegrated during this three week phase in the smash diet. These include the 3 ounces of meat or seafood, and is based on portion control rather than calorie count.
Three – construction: This lasts for four weeks on the fat smash diet, during which the person develops a healthy eating plan that includes foods they like. These foods can include desserts, pasta, bread, and many other foods restricted another types of diets such as the Atkins diet. In the fat smash diet moderation is the key.
Four – Temple: Now the dieter takes the fat smash diet into their every day life. Dr. Smith refers to the work done in the other three phases as the Temple, which must be maintained with continued diligence in moderation achieved through self-control.
Overall the fat smash diet is just OK. Those 10 pounds lost in phase one are due to an unhealthy low caloric intake. A lot of health experts say the detox phase is ridiculous. But many of the general principles of the fat smash diet are good ones – including exercise and moderation in all foods eaten.
Please always make sure to check with you doctor before starting any diet plan.
