The Healthy Diet Plan That Helped Me Lose 25 pounds

Earlier this year I saw a photo of myself and was furious at how fat I looked! I knew I was carrying some extra weight, but this photo made it clear I needed to get on a healthy diet plan right away. My clothes looked too small (they were feeling rather tight) and my body was way too big - even my arms looked fat!

I decided right then and there to lose the extra weight once and for all. I spent the next couple days searching for a healthy diet plan that would get me back to a reasonable weight quickly.

First I looked into the super low calorie diets like the 1000 calorie diets and 1200 calories diet plans but neither plan looked very healthy. Not only that, but I didn't want to have to starve myself to lose weight. Also I've tried some of the other fad diets in the past and even though I'd lost a couple pounds here and there, the weight always came back a week or two later.

I looked at taking diet pills including the acai pills I saw on Oprah. I learned that while acai does have health benefits it isn't a replacement for a healthy diet plan and it wouldn't help me lose weight. Some of the other diet pills, like Hydroxycut, have been taken off the market by the FDA as they can cause liver damage. I decided that pills were definitely not the way to go.

I considered trying one of the tradition diet plans, like Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig. I had tried Jenny Craig in the past with some success. Unfortunately their prepackaged food is expensive at more than $400 a month, and as soon as I stopped buying their food I gained the weight right back. The other problem was that I was hungry the whole time - not fun!

Finally a friend of mine told me about an online diet plan called Fat Loss 4 Idiots. She said the plan was easy to follow and that she lost 18 pounds in a month! I checked out their site and they claimed if I followed their healthy diet plan I could lose up to 9 pounds every 11 days. That sounded great to me!

I purchased the plan and read through the material. Fat Loss 4 Idiots teaches you how to 'calorie shift' by eating certain kinds of food each meal. In theory that keeps your metabolism in fat burning mode more of the time and allows you to lose weight quickly.

So how well did Fat Loss 4 Idiots work for me? In less than 2 months I dropped a total of 24 pounds! I went from a size 12 to a size 8, and I finally fit into all of my skinny clothes again! I don't think I could have done it without such an easy to follow healthy diet plan. If I can lose weight on this program than anyone can. It really is that easy to follow!
