The Truth About Fat Loss 4 Idiots:

We’ve seen many testimonials on the sales page and even more mixed stories online.

Although we only had a short amount of time (4 weeks) to try the product out, we did see a significant amount of weight loss. During those 4 weeks, our testing candidate managed to lose 7 ½ lbs. Whilst not quite as much as they claim can be lost in that time, we thought that was pretty impressive considering how easy going the diet is (lots of variety and allows for some tasty foods!).

Furthermore, what is noticeable is that there was very little exercise involved in that weight loss. Our testing candidate followed the advice in the guide and took 2 brisk walks every 3 days. She walked a maximum of 5 miles in a week.

If you don’t have time for any such thing, not even a walk to your local park/shops and back, then you may experience different results of course. Furthermore, we think that some of her success was also down to her will power to actually see it through.

Whilst this is a very easy going diet that gives you plenty of leeway to eat varied food types, you still have that feeling that you’re on some form of diet and therefore you may get the resistant feeling kick in to “let it all go”.

However, unlike some of the stricter calorie counting diets that force rabbit food down your throat all day and night, you don’t feel so restricted and tied down to the plan.

With a little more effort with exercise (perhaps gym or a sport, or even just a walk every day) she claims she could have easily lost a further 6 pounds in that time.

It’s hard to say, but at this stage the results look promising. A further 6 months down the line will be interesting to see how the diet lasts long term like it is supposed to. Additionally, it seems almost like the weight is coming off too quickly, which is another reason why we feel that sticking to this diet for more than a couple of months might actually be bad for your health.

Whilst the plan clearly does work is specifically reducing your body fat (and not just lowering your caloric intake), there are a couple of things we’re not too keen on with Fat Loss For Idiots on the whole…

Firstly, the whole idea of losing large amounts of weight too quickly may be appealing at first, but it needs to be done carefully due to health risks.

Furthermore, when losing weight so quickly, it’s just as easy to put the weight back on in the future. Therefore, it’s recommended that if you do buy this plan, that you have a stronger motivation to KEEP the weight off in the long run…otherwise you’re kind of cheating yourself and you’ll destroy your self esteem and motivation from the constant yo-yo dieting patterns.

In terms of the diet itself, although there is now a new plan recently added to bring even more variety, some of the foods can get a bit repetitious after a while.

Our experiences led us to believe that not only is this plan best suited for short term use because of the fast weight loss results, but also because it would become a little tedious eating the same overall foods contained in the plan.

Having said that, there’s no reason why you can’t mix things up a little, but obviously you need to remember that the plans have been specifically designed to increase metabolism and lower fat intake at the same time, so mixing the plans up too much may have an adverse effect.
