What Others Are Saying
Fat Loss 4 Idiots only works
because it is a very low calorie, low carb diet. However, it's just
that. A diet. It doesn't teach you how to properly eat so that you
don't gain weight when you go off the diet. It's likely that this is
just a temporary solution. The weight will come back. Comment

yes my friend did
it and lost 8lbs under 2 weeks. She kept on doing it. And she
already shred 40lbs. So I know the fat loss 4 idiots works. And it's
not hard to stay on. I saw her food menu. And it has carbs, meat,
and milk. Comment on Yahoo Answers
I'm actually
currently on this diet and have to say that I've never had success
anywhere else. I've lost 7lb in the last 11 days and to be fair, I
feel so much better. Comment on Yahoo Answers
I have just
finished 11 days of this diet. I lost 4, 5 pounds. The diet says
you'd lose 9 pounds, but I lose weight very hard. I consider it did
work for me, but no miracles. … Overall, I consider this diet to be
good if you follow it correctly… Comment on Yahoo Answers
Well, honestly, Fat
Loss 4 Idiots varies from person to person. Fat loss depends on your
commitment, your eating habits, your ability to exercise, etc. No
book will help you in the long run unless you know your own body. …
Yes, the standard advice and suggestions hold good, but implementing
them is your call. Comment on weight loss

Fat Loss 4
Idiots is a top-selling diet plan at
ClickBank.
The diet is based on what the
company calls the “shifting calories theory.” Here is how the
company explains the theory:
“Your metabolism doesn't know
how much food you'll eat tomorrow or the next day because those days
have not happened yet.
“Therefore, your metabolism
always burns calories based on your eating habits during the past
few days – because it assumes that you'll continue to eat in the
same general way.
“Guess what? You're about to
shock your metabolism by doing something you've never tried before –
you're going to do the opposite of what it expects you to do. You're
going to NOT continue eating the same types of calories and meals
for more than a couple days at a time, and you're going to lose a
lot of weight by doing this.
“To make this work you need to
shift the types of calories eaten… and if you do this then your
metabolism will burn all of the calories eaten. Then, when it
finishes burning those calories it will find the nearest available
fat tissue on your body and burn that too.
“The diet constantly alternates
your menu between every possible type of calorie, constantly
shifting from one type of calorie to the next, ensuring that the
scale keeps dropping.
“We call this diet the Idiot
Proof Diet because everything is computed for you, and there is no
need for calorie counting or label reading.”

Return Policy NOTE: Fat Loss 4 Idiots apparently
does not have a return policy. No mention of such a policy is made
on its website, and no way of contacting the company is listed. No
phone number or no email address and, presumably, no customer
support. We found what reportedly was an email address for the
company on a weight loss forum, but we got no reply when we sent a
message to that address. In other words, Fat Loss 4 Idiots does not
make refunds if you are unhappy with the results you get. This is a
serious deficiency that is reflected in the buy rating we give Fat
Loss 4 Idiots (see below). The ramifications of this lack of
customer support go far beyond the question of refunds.

Our Research Results
Discussion: There is no question that
Fat Loss 4 Idiots is a popular diet plan. After all, it is one of
ClickBank's best-selling weight loss program.
And there are weight loss
forums online populated by enthusiastic followers who swear by the
diet, although one suspects that any negative comments are filtered
out.
The fact is, however, that any
diet will work for at least some people if its rules are followed
faithfully. Which is to say that there also is no question that some
people have lost weight using the Fat Loss 4 Idiots system. Often
the weight loss is rapid, even startling. In fact, the website
advises to go off the plan for a few days if you lose too much
weight too quickly.
But does that make it a good
diet? Not in the eyes of a good many people whose comments we also
found online. Their objections, in addition to the complaint that
the diet does not work (no diet plan will work for everybody), are
at least twofold:
1. That it is a quick weight loss
program but does not have lasting effects, that is, once you go off
the diet the weight you lost quickly returns. This is common
complaint with low-calorie, low-carb diet plans that do not teach
you how to change your eating habits.
2. That it is difficult if not
impossible to get a refund.
We think both points,
particularly the second (See Return
Policy above), have merit.
For that reason, we feel
compelled to give Fat Loss 4 Idiots a 1-star buy rating.
